Great! I watched your other video using the Auto center and have been searching for one. Now I finally found this option. Thanks for designing and sharing.!! Getting it printed now.

You get a lot of chip out on your edges.

Hi, I printed your Glue pot holder out nearly a year ago and everytime I use it I think I must post a comment thanking you. So here it is, Thank you, great design and used daily. Rob

I wouldn’t futz around with that kerf gauge. Seems slower and more trouble than it’s worth. Just offer up the stock you need to lap and a square to keep it aligned then trace with a pencil. Hog out in between the pencil lines, but leave the trace lines visible. Can always sneak up to the pencil lines if too tight.

As many have mentioned it is shocking how useful someone familiar with basic workshop vacs unboxing one can be with how bad ryobi's instructions are, grabbed a similar model for the garage as I have recently started doing some woodwork along with the homebrewing so it kinda became a required item and I have never seen such unclear instructions on fitting a bag to a vacuum. You know instructions are bad when lego and random poorly translated cheap asian imports instructions are infinitely easier to understand.

Now to make this video the first thing that comesup on the TV when it gets switched on... Hehehehe

I'm going to make one of these next chance I get. I'm going to try putting the dovetail groove in the back of the sacrificial fence so that I can adjust it toollessly.

Good vid , thanks

Lovely stuff

I have that very same unit, haven't used it in years. Thanks for the refresher on its use.

Let me answer that with a resounding NOPE. Descent products, but quality is questionable. After 2 months and maybe 2 uses of a BRAND NEW tape the locking mechanism broke. Customer service refused to provide support because I didn’t purchase off their own website. Ridiculous. Would never purchase a product from them again.

a very comprehensive review, thank you sir.

I have watched other videos explaining use of the Zetsaw and yours is much more descriptive. Others missed out on at least, a half dozen details that you pointed out. Thank you

Thanks Darren so easy to follow and I got the job done without sweating. Fantastic video.

I wish you'd told us how you were adjusting pressure instead of just blowing right past and going about your business

Dear Sir, enjoyed your review of fast cap tape measure. Forgive my imposition, would you know of a laser tape measure specifically designed for violin maintenance? I need a quick working accurate tape measure for reading distance from top edge of bridge to edge of nut on my violin. The distance changes very often as the violin gets tuned, the bridge to nut ratio changes because of string tension. Im hoping a laser would read more accurately and be simpler to use. Thank you for demonstrating this on an actual 4/4 size violin if your able. The distance would be in millimeters. 328mm is the working length that must be maintained for optimal tone. Am wondering which laser tape measure would be best suited for such application? Thanks for any help. C.e. usa.😅

Great video, thanks.

be careful when buying a ryobi palm router ........the collar sticks and is hard to remove. check it at the store before buying. i bought one and the collar WOULD NOT come off. --even the men at the store could not get it off except to stand on it and pull up!!!!! as i was exchanging it for a second one a lady who had bought one previously said they were notorious for the collar being very hard to remove.

Nicely done comparison gonna make a magnetic handle

Thanks. I don't think a Micro jig comparison is necessary. This method is just fine.

A colleague of mine is using this drill. The sound when hammer function is on is really annoying and ear-piercing high pitch. Drilling brick that is, not even concrete. Especially when he’s choosing drill speed too high “I’m a tough man and I want to get the job done fast” without ear protection noise is quite unbearable. I don’t know any corded hammer drill sounding that annoying…

Could not find your Thread Gauge 2 on Thingiverse ! DOes it exists anywhere else ?

This thing is overpriced junk. And from the video looks like it took longer to set up than your knock off ones

You could use the expanding jig to set even screw holes

Great idea Darren.

I buy one and use it each time. Just a comment, you can put the fence on top, then you can use a metal or wood guide to cut a large panel. On my kit, there is a metal plate of 0.6mm, this metal plane is inserted like the saw. So, you can verify your line before cutting. I use it also to control the 90° vertical adjustment.

You love my country!😄

Thanks mate. Exactly what I was looking for. Very well explained. I used parameters so I can easily change for different nut sizes.

Great video. And i really like your t-shirt. Keep up the good work.

Quick tip for calipers: To measure the distance between to holes of the same size, first turn the caliper over and use the small, inner arms and zero them in one of the holes. Then flip it back over and measure the holes from the walls nearest to each other and that's you center to center distance. 😊

Just picked up this beautiful little tool a week or two ago and now stumbled on your video. The blade is fully flattened, polished and sharpened out of the box which is a nice touch. And it cuts like a dream. Blue Spruce just came out with a spearpoint blade version which gets into corners and tight spaces very nicely. Thanks for doing this video!

If you dont want accuracy theyre great.

Great quality on my Bradman sliding door There not even riveted in Vey disappointed I invested in some stainless self tappers I prefer a secure roller Very informative video

The instructions for this were so vague, I writ and design manuals and was feeling frustrated, thank you for this ❤️

Been wanting/saving for this for months. It’s genius. ✨ Hoping to make accurate “one and done” cuts with no/less use of shooting-board (shooting boards are my most hated, finicky and difficult task)

much appreciated Dazza.

A good presentation. Appreciated. Well done!

This just didn’t make sense before. Now I understand it. Thanks for sharing.

Been using these for ages now and can't break one, best for cabinet makers in my opinion. Thanks for the video!

Nice one! Thanks Darren.

I've been eyeing this for quite while, finally deciding that having a millionth japanese saw might be a bit much and solved my problem by making adjustable shooting board for the alarming cost of one bolt, few screws and scrap plywood. Is good enough for joinery off the saw, or will you have to dress the cuts further?

how well does this unit go with hardwood like iron bark or casurina?

Did you buy the xl that you needed to build ?

@DarrensWorkshop - Hi Darren, what brand/model of bushings are you using in the video (to ensure a perfect fit!)

Hi, Darren i'm enjoying the channel!

Hi, thanks for the review. Never saw such a lovely tool. Using the Veritas Flush Plane which looks bigger .

Good to see you return. & where did you pick up such a nifty plane? I have also been looking to remove glue squeeze out from inside a jewellery box, & this would be excellent

30 minutes ago, I was looking up to see if I could get something like this.

Darren - thank you for the videos. They are well done. I am am a novice and would find it useful if you demonstrated how you make your custom holders: steps, software, techniques. 😊
