Do you have another source for those Safety Glasses? Who makes them? The link doesn't work.

[@roncostas2223]

Your videos are great I learned so much ty

[@harveysburger]

Hey, the safety glasses + ear plugs link is broken. It says the product is no longer active

[@Noone-of-your-Business]

I was an idiot to every use my table saw before discovering this channel. Your videos should be mandatory watching for every home improver! Thank you a thousand times for setting me straight while I still have all my fingers! _Going to the workshop to build myself an auxiliary fence for my miter gauge._

[@UncleSarkis]

There are a few people on KZbin that I trust when giving advice on KZbin, Stumpy Nubs is one of them.

[@freddyfriesen]

As a retired shop teacher of forty years, I find myself smiling and nodding a lot, but there are still many tips that have me wishing I had known that several decades earlier.

[@jonathanoakey4745]

This is the sort of video that KZbin was made for. Perfectly executed and chock full of useful and interesting information!

[@ignae]

How is all this information free? props for sharing a high-quality class. There's a spot for you in wood heaven.

[@watermain48]

Thanks James. I'm re-watching these because I just got a new SawStop Jobsite Pro table saw and thought some refreshers would be in order.

[@413DaveRN]

This series is so good, it should be required viewing for anyone with a table saw!

[@philbunston9663]

Ditto .

[@mrkrause3]

Ditto!

[@coreygrua3271]

This thoughtful table saw series proves once again that the devil is in the details (along with the accidents). Thank you Professor Hamilton. You have saved a lot of fingers. Plus, I always like good results.

[@MrGolfballsack]

what idiots gave this guy a thumbs down. he clearly explains the skill level for this video. when explaining something he explains how to, why, what happens if u do it incorrectly, and how it looks when u do it correctly. and he does it in a way that is easy to understand. he uses example videos to explain wich really helps people that learn easier hands on. he is an excellent teacher. thank s for the video dude gonna subscribe now

[@gregmislick1117]

dunno, but that first idiot found 4 friends....(and counting I'm sure, you just can't beat a good idiot)

[@JR-rk5dr]

its so great to get a explanation with out gimmicks or obnoxious screaming just a guy explaining his craft in a calm manner channels like this or so under rated :)

[@bobkent21]

I have been woodworking for 45 years and these are great videos. I learn from them and every new woodworker should watch them carefully and often.

[@2AChef-n-BBQ]

Dammit James, this is becoming an addiction, Been woodworking for 35 years, but you always have some good nuggets,. Thank you!

[@gerryseymour]

We really don't need to think about James' nuggets.

[@2AChef-n-BBQ]

@@gerryseymour bwahahahahahaha Amen to that!

[@weezerOU812]

I've been a woodworker for 20 plus years, but a refresher never hurt anybody. Plus, like they say, if you're not careful you might just learn something. Keep up the good work Mr Hamilton.

[@grupp61]

ATTENTION NEW WOODWORKERS: Download this video series! Then SUBSCRIBE James gives a wealth of very valuable information in a 12 minute video.. As a 40 year woodworker , " the old dog can learn new tricks". You will produce a much higher quality project following this advise, while avoiding potentially harmful injuries. Great job James, 2 thumbs up.

[@tmhirsch65]

6:35 - "a dumb mistake that a surprising number of folks make". Yeah, that would be me. Just before Thanksgiving, I almost lost the end of my right index finger reaching over the blade to move an offcut. 8 weeks with it almost totally immobile and protecting it like gold since. The skin is nearly 100% healed and I don't see stars every time I brush up against something. I was incredibly lucky - no nerve, tendon or bone damage. Can't bend it at the last knuckle anymore, but I'm lucky I still have a finger, and I'll always have the scar to remind me not to be so stupid! First project (after I check the 8 things in your latest video) is to build the auxiliary miter sled in this video! I've watched this whole series a number of times. Thorough and clear (as usual), with lots of good tips and troubleshooting to boot! You're one of my go-to channels for all things woodworking. Thanks for all you do Stumpy! Hope you're recovering well from your own angle grinder accident.

[@brettm1118]

I love this. Nothing wrong with teaching old dogs new tricks and reminders to not get complacent with unsafe habits

[@jimmypage122]

invaluable series so far! would love a similar series on the router table next.

[@Finksta951]

I have recently acquired some woodworking tools from my grandmother. She had a mess of a garage and told me if I clean it I can keep anything I want. So far I've got a 14in bandsaw, 10in table saw, a few hand planes, and other hand tools, my buddy gave me a nice dewalt 12in miter. I just wanted to know that since watching your videos I have learned how to use these screaming death machines and keep my fingers so thank you.

[@cramit]

I know this is an old video, but I just want to say thank you. I am new to all of this. Covid introduced me to woodworking when I built desks for my wife and I, so we could work from home. I found a passion for it. We are having a workshop built in our backyard, and I am finally facing my fear of some of the more intimidating tools, the table saw being at the top of the list. All the information on youtube is helpful, but overwhelming. Videos like this help me feel much more prepared. So thank you!

[@chipsterb4946]

As a beginning woodworker, these tutorial videos are GREAT. They are packed with useful content in an easy to grasp presentation.

[@cindymullen665]

As a complete novice (and I do mean novice - as in I’ve never even been around a table saw!), these videos are gold. I have to take a lot of notes and master the vocabulary, but I’m able to learn what I need to make the cuts I couldn’t before. I used pre-cut wood to build a cabinet. I had a miter saw that could handle the cuts I needed for that one. It turned out really well - the second time. 😂 I only had 5 inches and made a spice rack with full extension. It was challenging since I had to make my own plans. This expands my ability to make the next ones considerably since I can’t buy wood the size I need for the next ones I need to make. Thank God for these videos! I was especially glad to have the safety videos. I have a VERY healthy respect for the saw blade! I’m a musician and would absolutely die if I cut any fingers!

[@LuckyEleven1177]

You are an exceptional teacher. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You’ve helped make me a better woodworker and avoid becoming one with stumpy nubs.

[@bloomtimer2257]

now i know what makes some of my cuts uneven, thank you for that.

[@richardroehr5020]

You are a natural born teacher. Thank you for the clear, thorough and easy to follow lessons

[@hurley1896]

A no nonsense, simple, but very informative video. Brilliant

[@kennethspengler9934]

James, this series is terrific. I like these videos that stay on topic instead of the ones that jump around with comic outtakes like earlier videos. I’ve learned a lot from your you tube videos and am glad I am a subscriber. Keep up your excellent work.

[@gregjohnson8486]

This is a GREAT series!! Thanks for sharing 👍🏾

[@joshflammrealtor2894]

Stumpy, far and away some of the best videos out there! Bravo!

[@benjamincook3800]

This is a great series of videos for an old retiree who just took up woodwork dabbling about a year ago ,now im hooked.Your presentation is excellent Im thinking maybe your a teacher of some sort? Anyway great series and like some other comments I read on here Do More!!!!! Thanks my man...

[@bobd5119]

Several thousand dittos!

[@JoeMac1983]

All of your videos are extremely thorough, to the point, well produced, and full of amazing knowledge. Thank you for sharing what you know with all of us!

[@kernsails]

Thank you for all you offer us. Your manner of teaching is great, and it doesn't drag. I have learned so much Thank you, K

[@pashay4723]

Very informative and thorough. Thx so much for making it

[@theyuha]

Just got a table saw from a friend, decided to see what I got here and how it works. It is very well thought out and presented.

[@jimzeleny7213]

80 or 90 tooth blade has worked great for me, crosscut and rip cuts

[@nancycrase7112]

There are some good woodworking youtubers out there. I'm a new woodworker and I think your content and delivery is just about the best I've seen. Thank you (and thanks to those that help you to create these comprehensive videos) !!

[@Dsoginventor]

A few decades ago I bought a Sears contractor table saw. Gawd, I wish this video was available then! If you are new to woodworking, you pay attention to what James says, or you will be a statistic.

[@Dsoginventor]

@Rocket Man, no, I sold it a year ago.

[@mannyp3993]

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

[@rosswaring2835]

Excellent, clear instruction James...great work! Thanks...

[@cduncan7768]

You sir are a great teacher.

[@MikeTatman]

Thanks James. Loving these videos as always.

[@jlh5995]

Hey James, thanks for the great video tutorial on the basics of making cross cuts on the table saw.

[@madroot]

This is a great series for beginners like me. Thanx!!!

[@juleswebb1885]

I love these videos..it focuses my mind on how to make better, more accurate cuts, even if i 'know' all the principles covered here. For example...need to make a new zero clearance insert plate, need to fix my sled as it's a tiny bit warped and doesn't quite sit flat on the table, need better quality blades... it's so easy to neglect the little things that add up over time and affect your work

[@shnuggumz]

Damn informative! So thorough and descriptive.

[@bijoysaraf650]

Your tips and tricks are succinct. I have learnt a lot of wood working safety tips watching your videos. I have been a subscriber to your channel for a while now - always liked your videos and your style of presentation. Being an engineer, I pay a lot of attention to details in fine woodwork. When in doubt I search for an answer in your wood working journal and/or the videos. Way to go James! Looking forward to your next video.

[@MrMarkpeggy]

Thank you for another great lesson James. You are a gifted teacher.

[@stratlix1]

KZbin should have the thumbs down button make you state why you are giving it a thumbs down or you can’t leave a thumbs down. When I viewed this INVALUABLE lesson on table saw safety and tips it had 6 thumbs down. How can there be 6 people in this arena that are so negative they would thumbs down this video? I just don’t get it. If you don’t find value in these great videos just stop watching. Man people bug me sometimes. Thanks Stumpy, your teaching is over the top. I learn something valuable every time I watch. And I support you through my purchases. Always great tips!! THANK YOU!

[@huwdavies5264]

Another set of great tips for good results and safe use of a table saw. Keeping the series for re-watching as a refresher. Thanks James. Cheers, Huw

[@e.dbogan6266]

I like your channel. You always have good tips to helpmthe beginning woodworker. Keep,up the good work!

[@Shirodx]

Wow, so much info. Very helpful. If I had never watched this video, I would have definitely made some of these mistakes you had out lined. Thanks again.

[@greybeard9396]

Excellent videos, just subscribed! But, man, I'm having to actually make notes (which, I think, is good practice) to remember the stuff!!!😂

[@alexfedrick7634]

Great series’s I’m just a beginner and am finding this so much help.

[@MrPeterPanos]

Thank you so much for all your videos, I just bought my first Table Saw, and I find all your videos very helpful. I especially appreciate your safety video, thanks!

[@theothermarshal]

This is a great series!

[@BloodysChannel]

This is a great video. So much information packed in! I wrote everything down and it took me way over 30 Minutes to watch the video and make my notes. So valueable, thank you very much!

[@raindropsrising7662]

Thanks for the series. Just got a table saw. These are fantastic and well structured. Appreciate them.

[@shabazan]

You sir, are a great teacher. Even after years of experience, I learn something from every posting. Thank you.

[@grahamhagerty8648]

Great Series indeed !

[@deanwilliams93]

Why Stumpy Nubs channels don't have 1.5M views is beyond me.

[@chemcody5119]

All good tips stumpy! A refresher course is always a good idea. Keep up the good work!

[@BillHartCooks.]

Thanks for your content. I really do believe that you do want to make all of us better wood workers...

[@simoningram9442]

So much information! I'm going to have to watch this several times. I'm just starting out doing woodworking, but there's so much mind-blowingly simple, effective know-how here, it's crazy. Every issue I've had so far has been answered! Thank you!

[@carolewarner101]

Really appreciating these tutorials. Really valuable. Thanks Stumpy!

[@fuerzalatina134]

amazing amount of information!! you are incredible!! thank you!

[@deltaone7835]

Your material and delivery is an awesome piece of work. I have many years of wood working and still always find something interesting, accurate and remindful if that is a word. Thank you James Hamiliton for your awesome contribution to wood workers world wide.

[@scottlouis7785]

I`ve heard all of this before but IT is always good to hear again thanks

[@nicktucker4916]

Great tutorials, really appreciate you taking the time to do them. It's always good to go back to basics

[@dillbob330]

How come every time i watch your channel I feel like I need to buy an upgrade? 🤣

[@zahirig]

This is great. Your advice is excellent and well delivered.

[@greg640]

this series is really helpful for this beginner, I will likely re-watch it

[@mjp5546]

Another few great tips. Your videos are awesome, thanks for doing them.

[@Ajackeroo2]

Love watching his videos, i learn so much

[@AkinAkinsanya]

[@Godlike-87]

Amazing work. You’ve inspired me and given me the confidence to truly pursue this as more than a hobby but a way of life. Thanks 🙏

[@velcroman11]

Great video. No mellow drama just good clear explanation on the How, what and …….. whoops! Thanks Stumpy

[@gbjones54]

Great series James, Good reminders even though I've been using a tables saw for years..

[@negotiableaffections]

A great refresher James, thankyou.

[@clydedecker765]

As usual - well done. You always cover a subject well.

[@terrykizer6755]

Very helpful!

[@freddyedwards67]

Absolutely invaluable advice. Thank you very much

[@deanprosser5224]

Very useful, I will implement these points straight away. Many thanks.

[@koonelos]

Why did it take me so long to find this channel...?

[@dubya13207]

I once made my stock miter bar adjustable by drilling and tapping it for small nylon screws. It worked amazingly well...until I broke the tap in the last hole and couldn’t get it out

[@4SafetyTraining]

You do a great job, keep the safety in front.

[@divchief07ut]

Good stuff!! I usually raise my aux fence to leave a 1/16" or so off the table to reduce the dust buildup

[@917Stefano]

Thank you for making this video. It contains a ton of excellent info.

[@roBLINDhood]

You are a very good educator.

[@jamesmccarthy6430]

James. Your videos are the best reason to have KZbin. Really love the series on table saws. Makes me want to run down to my shop, turn on my Delta cabinet saw and just cut some stuff for fun.

[@markbryan9989]

Good stuff. Thanks James.

[@Scatyricon]

invaluable information. the whole series is awesome

[@emm_arr]

Excellent stuff. Thank you, James.

[@711693]

Great video. thanks

[@MikeB0001]

Great video as usual...and Ken at Woodturners wonders I agree is a great guy to deal with..great stuff and great prices...love my CBN wheels!

[@MartinMosman]

Nice tips James. Thanks for the good videos!

[@Dave-kq7gv]

Cool vid with great presentation style as always, Mr. Nubs! While I get that it was a demonstration, I chuckled at the ghastly amount of tear-out @9:30 b/c you just showed us how to prevent it ;)

[@osvaldocristo]

Thanks Stumpy. Great as usual!

[@larrybeck3857]

Thanks for the help and what Thomas said.

[@brollin2flybrollin2fly49]
