Your tips here about the pizza boxes and the table sliding guide are fabulous. Absolutely fabulous. Thank you.

[@skigglystars9525]

Always walk away with at least a tidbit of valuable information after any of your content. Love the fact you provide free plans with every idea. Pure magic. Thanks again Rob for supporting the woodworking community.

Just getting into retirement and going back to high school I was pretty good in shop. My dad retired and began making Amish furniture. I’m not that highly intelligent or motivated but I like building stuff. Thanks for sharing and I’ve learned a lot from this video and have subscribed!

[@gigaphonicon]

I'm going to have to make that bandsaw sled that's going to be a game changer for me as I bought my bandsaws both used and have no miter gauges

[@gigaphonicon]

That card board 0 clearance is great. I previously used to lay down a 3 inch piece of masking tape on both sides of the blade.

[@vmoutsop]

I learn more here than most any other channels. Thanks

[@tektrixter]

The tip of using painters' tape for marking is great! thanks

I just discovered your channel. Don't know how it's taking this long. So far I'm thoroughly impressed. Awesome work!

[@rexcowan4314]

A couple of these ideas are great. A timely video. i always enjoy your videos and usually learn something. Never thought of double stick tape for small parts. I liked how you showed the router handles being made. Thanks again

[@akbychoice]

All great tips and methods.

[@grampacross7386]

Thank you for a great band saw video. Maybe it moves a little fast for this old brain, but the Chapters work great for me to get the most out of it. I'll keep the one in some of my various Playlists. To be watched every now and then, until it sinks in. 🙂 Thanks again.

[@CelestialLites]

Nice video! 1st bandsaw I brought some zero clearance inserts that were stepped to fit deeper into opening. I tried cutting the kerf with smaller diameter down, blade grabbed and flipped insert forward and nicked my finger! Learned my lesson.

[@dtork47]

Always helpful and great ideas!

[@IEnjoyCreatingVideos]

[@a9ball1]

Super great video! I have a request for everyone. I need/want a new bandsaw. I'm looking around the 12"-14" size. I have a really old 10" Craftsman I paid $25 for and it's falling apart and I'd like a bigger one. Any suggestions on a brand or model?

[@justinjovi]

Is there a link to that 1/16” table saw blade?

[@felicadawn62]

All that I have at the moment (and all that is in my budget at the moment) is an older model Ryobi band saw with a 1/8 or 3/16 blade. It says I could put in up to a 3/8" in it. Is it even worth it for this saw? I have attempted adjustments as you and others have suggested but have not been able to eliminate the wandering blade. What do you think? (Great tips on this one, btw.)

[@rexcowan4314]

That little Ryobi is a workhorse. tune it up and make a fence jig and it will cut straight all day. Check the guides ( that was my problem with that bandsaw) and be finicky adjusting them. It is a good little bandsaw. the 3/8 blade will help with the wandering.

[@thedevilinthecircuit1414]

Ekspecially.

[@bigviper64]

Description BELOW? Where? I scroll the video UP and there isnt’ anything below…frustrating!

[@Raul28153]

[@loucipher67]
