Don't let Israel see this jig - they would steal it and call it their invention. It would be best if you patented it so Kreg or any other mfg do not steal your idea. This is good enough to be purchased.

Great video. Which brand of 23 gauge stapler do you recommend. That looks like a old porter cable.
@henrymostert2125
@henrymostert2125 6 күн бұрын
I think most brands so long as it's an upholstery stapler will be pretty well the same. From what I've seen there's only a couple of companies that make them. You can get commercial ones as well but they're quite a bit more expensive. The one I have is an old Porter Cable that's correct. I bought it to put screens on an overhanging porch. And then it sat for years until I figured out I could use it for other things.

I need simple cheap crown moulding to replace that in my 35 year old doublewide. I like clean and simple straight lines and this is easy and perfect. I used just 1/2 x side casing at top fillet and a top casing. Very clean and nice and simple. I did use ripped down 2x4's but it's been 5 years and no warping or other issues and if one warps it costs about $1 to replace plus paint.

I have a few questions and a couple of comments. Thanks in advance for your response! 1) Does the TiteBond Melamine glue fuse the surfaces together like PVC cement? 2) I can buy 3/4" Melamine for less than 1/2 or 5/8. Is that overkill (too much weight, etc) for the box, doors, drawer fronts, and backs? 3) I was always concerned about screws pulling out of Melamine. Is the trick to use a larger head and coarse threads? 4) I was surprised that finish nails and glue would hold it all together! What size nails were used? 5) You really did a nice job going over the importance of everything being perfectly square. I don't have a jointer and my table saw is rather small, can you share any other tips for helping me achieve square cabinets using Melamine? Im planning to update my small shop and the difference in cost using Melamine is sizable, $27 to $40/sheet. I really appreciate your attention to detail! Thanks!

Sounds like a pretty good deal to me for 3/4-in melamine. I would go with that. I use 5/8 because I got a really good deal on a full lift. The glue that I use I'm not exactly sure how it bonds but it's not the same as PVC. Yes it is important to get all your parts nice and square. It just makes putting everything together that much easier. You can make some jigs and fixtures that work with a router or a skill saw if you had to. If you want to add a little bit more strength to your cabinets you can put some one and 3/4 number 6 screws into it if you pre drill

Good point. Using what is quicker to hand is always the way to go. For me, my track saw setup is quicker, as it is always to hand. My jointer shares a dust collection point with my table saw, so it takes more time to setup. I used to try to straight line rip.on the table saw, but for wider boards, the trac’ saw seems to work better. Once I get a straight reference edge, then the table saw makes the final width cuts. I mostly use the jointer for smaller parts and glue ups. Cheers

Hi Tom. The actual drawer box doesn't take much more time other than you have to Edge the front of the two drawer sides.

Otherwise yes making a drawer or a rollouts the same amount of time

It's not necessary with a long board on edge like this. The weight of the board will keep it registered on the outfeed table, and on edge it's stiff enough that it will deflect minimally under its own weight. Working on the face requires more care.

That first Rockwell, it could just as easily have been a Delta of the same time period. Something tells me that if you had a Rockwell of the same vintage as the Delta that it would do no better as they're the same company. I have a 9" Rockwell contractor saw with a 1.5hp motor on it that can be wired for either 120 or 240v that I use for miter cuts, saving my crosscuts and ripping duties for my 1956 DeWalt MBF radial arm saw which claims to only have a 3/4hp motor on it, but I suspect being direct drive instead of running off a V belt gives it more power than my contractor saw with the larger motor. I also have an old non-sliding miter "chop saw" Which I will probably replace the contractor saw with, get rid of the contractor saw and then have room in my shop for a jointer. I can do jointing on my RAS, but I'd rather have a dedicated machine for it that can also do planing without having to do any mods to it like I'd have to with the RAS.
