Having spotted your wedding ring, remembering the video about the nasty injury with that ring on you endured, do you handle this by deducting the ring before kinda every risky situation? i'd mean concerning coordination, you already seem to handle heaps of patterns and genuses aspects with all the scarce real american craftmen language, in tools, like ice growing against the wind. A healthy brain"extension" can handle almost infinite data processing, but the structures or an architecture of it must fit extremely well on/for the user, and what i mostly see in "my world" is chaos and swift changes for some tiny money raise to expect (not analizing the downsides for unknown others), nothing with mental consistence for continuity in some per-severe-ance. But i am some exotic guy just not able or convincedly willing to ignore the chaos of the people, "it's there for some reason or cause".

As a fellow glasses wearing human I’d love a recommendation for safety glasses if you have a set that you like enough to recommend. I’ve tried several with very poor fit and discomfort.

[@Shannon-v3r]

I can’t say enough about the Milescraft jig. I’ve always wanted a circle jig but put it off over and over. I started making lazy Susan’s and had other ideas that required circles. Other jigs require you buy two different versions, one for bigger circles and one for smaller. Milescraft came in under just one of the competitors. They’re not a fancy company but their stuff just works. Love them

[@BelleChasseHome]

Although I have a CNC to make circles, I love the Milescraft circle jig. There's just something satisfying about using it. It did take me a little to figure out the small circle part of the jig...Im a newbie. Love your content. Your are a TRUE TEACHER and genuine about sharing your knowledge. Thanks.

[@SavageVoyageur]

Dang it, every time I watch one of your videos I end up needing to buy more tools. Thanks Stumpy.

[@MMWoodworking]

Out of curiosity, what happened at 7:06 to cause that large gap at the top of the board, right where the gauge pivot point is? Is that the Starett measuring device just not having a contact point there? I ask because I was looking at that gauge, but I often cut small parts, and need it to make contact all of the way up. I don't want to have it on my possible list if it doesn't make contact all of the way up. Thanks.

[@StumpyNubs]

There is no gap. What you are seeing is the top of the slot that runs down the middle of the compass's beam. That's where the blade folds inside, like a jack knife.

[@nathanwebb5581]

I don't do as much woodworking as I'd like, I live that dream through you. But i do run a small construction crew, and much of your shared knowledge carries over.

[@seanfrick1745]

Hi, which length did you get?

[@systemfisch]

36", so the middle one. I'd love to have the longer one, but my shop is too small for it. But even the 36" gives me a whole foot more fence - and a straight one at that! 🤣

Mr. Nubs, I have a couple other milescraft jigs and I've been very pleased with the products

[@mudz678]

I agree 100% with your assessment of the BOW Xtender fence system. Due to my having to downsize both shop space, and stationary tool size, I was forced to abandon my General 350 table saw, which was positioned in one corner of a table measuring about 6’ by 7’. I ended up buying a Dewalt 7491 shop saw. I was surprise, pleasantly, by its accuracy, but was very apprehensive when using it, for the precise reasons named in this video. My fear was justified in Feb of 2023, when I kissed the blade with my left index finger…I was paying too much attention to controlling the wood while nearing the end of the cut. Lesson learned! I saw the Bow fence reviewed on another channel, and was very pleasantly surprised when it appeared in Canada, shortly thereafter. I purchased the 46” model AND 2 of the supports. What an instant and amazing difference. I cannot see myself ever using this saw without this fence setup. One bit of advice….for a shop saw of this size, definitely go with the 46” length. I would not be nearly as enthusiastic had I opted for the next shorter length. I don’t know about the standard fences on other brands of shop saws, but on this Dewalt, if you’re in the position of needing to buy clamps, you won’t go wrong with the Low-profile Track Saw Guide Clamps (item 13K1230) from Lee Valley. I just happened to already have a pair, tried them…thinking they probably wouldn’t have enough capacity….and presto….it’s as if they were designed for this setup. With the Bow fence attached, the only thing that protrudes from the backside of the Dewalt fence, is the 1/2” thickness of the black knob.

[@EEEZSolutionS]

I bought the 46" fence last November and it is mounted on my DeWalt 7491 too. I agree, it makes a huge difference. But, my problem is that the two green supports are not level with the saw table. I had to remove the fence spacers that are used to keep the fence off the saw table because they not only kept the fence from riding on the table but also raised the green supports. Even without them the supports are not level with the table. I spent many hours on conversation with Bow but they have not come up with an answer as to why this is happening with m set up. Have you experienced this? Thanks, Larry

[@mudz678]

@@EEEZSolutionS You’ve piqued my curiosity. I’m inclined to assume that my supports are level with the saw table, simply because I haven’t had a single problem. I’ll be able to check this later today, when I return to the house…. I’ll definitely let you know what I learn.

[@EEEZSolutionS]

@@mudz678 Thanks - I will be interested to hear about your set up. Thanks, Larry

[@mudz678]

@@EEEZSolutionS I just finished examining my setup, and I think I’ve identified the likely cause of your problem. Laying a straight edge against the Bow fence showed that my saw table, and the fore and aft green supports were all in the same plane….perfectly level. I checked the position of the four plastic glides attached to the bottom of the Bow fence, and found that, just through happenstance, they were all in the area towards the middle 2/3 of the Dewalt table. By sliding two of the spacers, so they rested very near the front and rear edges of the saw’s table, I was able to replicate your problem. Shop saws are notorious for having (varying amounts of) inconsistencies in the levelness of their tops, and therein lies the (potential) problem….hope this helps.

[@EEEZSolutionS]

​@@mudz678 Hey Murray - thanks for taking the time to let me know about your set up and I'm glad to know yours works as advertised. I really appreciate your input. When I initially set up the fence and used the standoffs, the green supports were approx 1/8" higher than the saw table. I have been using the fence without the standoffs, meaning the fence essentially sits on the table. Even at that, the supports are still a "hair" above level with the table. When I get a chance,which may not be for a week or so (business travel gets in the way of my fun - LOL) I will try using the standoffs as you are and see it that works. I'll let you know how that works. That all said, the fence has really made a huge difference in the accuracy and ease of use of the 7491 saw. Again, thanks, Larry

[@colincarson2983]

Thanks for producing such informative videos! I have a simple question about router table setup. In another video you mentioned using a digital measuring device in order to ensure that profile cuts on work pieces done at different times would match perfectly (such as for a picture frame). But duplicating such exact measurements would necessitate the profile bit being inserted to exactly the same depth in the router collet each time. Rather than inserting a bit until the shank bottoms out, I've seen many advise that bits should be raised slightly (1/16 to 1/8") before tightening the collet because the process of tightening collets draws the bit shank down into the collet and the collet cannot be fully tightened if the bit is already bottomed-out before tightening. May I ask your view on raising a bit slightly before tightening the collet?

[@StumpyNubs]

What is measured is the height of the bit above the table. It doesn't matter if that height is achieved by raising the entire router with a lift, or by raising just the bit in the collet. The measurement is affected in the same way.

[@careyharris9357]

[@AKdesignsandhardwoods]

I gotta add the hype for the bow fence. I use it on my bandsaw for re-saw. I have an older powermatic 72 which has a very large table and the fence is longer than the longest bow fence by 6 inches. Amazing for the bandsaw.

One item of note for those getting the brush. Make sure you fully clean the brush from any chemicals you might use to help remove pith from your blade. It will dissolve the plastic on the brush and bristles in a hurry.

Hello. I have watched your channel for a long time on our TV via Roku. Today I subscribed to your channel on my computer. If you would, please give me your advice. I have an old Craftsman router table. I don't like it because it is very difficult to adjust the height of the bit. Is there a router table that makes router bit height adjustment an easy process? Thank you for any advice you may give.

[@StumpyNubs]

It's not about the router table. A router lift, attached to a table, will raise the bit up above the table for easy adjustment.

[@smorgasbord42]

The digital miter gauge is intriguing, especially for the price, but I think it's worth pointing out that the manufacturer specs an accuracy of only +/-0.2 degrees. Which is good enough for many applications, but not for things like 6 or 8 sided frames, where any error is compounded by twice the number of joints. Oh, and it reads to the nearest 1/10th of a degree, not 1/100th as claimed in the video. The protractor used to measure the results also isn't accurate enough to discern a 1/10º difference.

[@BelleChasseHome]

As I am new to woodworking and crafting, I really want to learn the BASICS instead of just using power/electrical equipment which I have due to my time renovationg/construction type projects. I notice you use many chisels (ON YOUR WALL BEHIND you in EVERY VIDEO) and like a chef knife in the kitchen, not all are made the same. Which would be your top maybe 10 to recommend that a beginner can use and grow with over time and will still be enduring with use?
