Jointer Fence Upgrade, Project Updates, Introduction (Random Shop Stuff 1)

I'm on vacation so I didn't have a lot of time making a proper video this time.

[@JohnHeisz]

I think that the key to these kind of videos is to keep them lively and engaging. Mixing in some small fixes or projects helps and will get viewers coming back. Since they know it's not just you talking to the camera for 10 minutes, they'll be more likely to watch the next one.

[@MariusHornberger]

John Heisz Right, these were also my thoughts about it. I personally don't like watching someone just talking, if I don't know the topic or am not very interested in a topic. But what I want to then is about the same as you do with your second channel, so I hope your not mad, because I'm copying.

[@pcb1962]

Yes, more like this please. The odds and ends are just as interesting as the bigger projects, everything you do in your shop is interesting.

[@barryroberts6470]

Hi Marius hope you enjoyed your holiday (vacation). I like these new update vlogs you do showing what's going to happen and things in the making etc, also like the small/medium size projects you do as well. Your subscribers like me have joined because of what you make and the vlog is an added extra which we all like, so my choice is more of the same plus the added vlog. Thanks, Barry from England.

[@JayBates]

I've been making a weekly video since December 2012 and still have to shoot narration scenes over and over. I think the jointer fence segment could have been a video by itself. Progress/productivity = video. Look at Matthias for example. He does a lot of short videos but he's always getting something done. I really enjoy your videos regardless though.

[@MariusHornberger]

Jay Bates When I edited the video I thought the same, but I had to get the video done quickly.

[@joser1219]

You have a cool setup man. Keep practicing with the language you're doing good.

[@johnschoolfield9339]

Marius. I just found your channel today, and I'm glad I did. I really like the way you talk about what you are doing. You explain the purpose behind each step and how you arrived at the solution. And your explanations are very clear, which is very good and is rare. Don't worry about your English. You speak very well and the few mistakes you do make are not significant, don't seem to change the meaning, and actually add to the story you are telling in some ways. I wouldn't change it. I love seeing the projects that other people are planning. It makes me think about the way that I would approach them. So I would like to see more of them as you come up with new projects. Keep up the good work.

[@MariusHornberger]

John Schoolfield Thanks John, really appreciated.

[@denjhill]

I don't have any experience making videos, so no advice coming from me. However, I really enjoy them in any form. You are a unique character on the woodworking interweb and just seeing what you're doing in any form is enjoyable. Keep them coming!

[@kanehunter23]

Watching you videos over here in the U.S. in Michigan and I really like them. I think it shows great character to put yourself and your work out to the public. Keep doing what you like to do that is what life is all about, because some how in some way it helps others !!!!

[@notsunkyet]

I say yes. I enjoyed your Vlog, you had a bit of everything in it. I enjoy video's that have behind the scenes content. I also like to see the small jobs that are done to improve and make your shop easier to use especially things geared towards organization. I especially liked your Small Parts Storage Boxes video. I don't know what others like, however I enjoy seeing the small details. Yours is one of the few channels I actually make a point of visiting regularly, I look forward to seeing what you do next. And as for another video on bowl blanks, I'm game. :) Thanks for sharing with us.

[@tlbeadlegmailcom]

I enjoyed your video of updates and shop maintenance etc. It's a nice change of pace from a project video script. It let's me know more about what you are thinking and how you go about tackling your challenges. That's the best part of shop time !! Thanks for posting.

[@g.work.specials6859]

I love these video's. you kept it very well alive, by doing some shop upgrades. I wouldn't mind more of these vlogs.

[@craigpereira6381]

I like this video. I like the small jobs showing some small shop fixes or changes. This would be a great to add to your videos.

[@MacnWood]

I personally really enjoy these type of videos. We get to see more of what an actual week looks like. Keep it up man!

[@vernmitchinson2013]

If you have any concerns about the strength of the threads in the wood try dripping some thin CA, (some people call it crazy glue) on the threads then retap them. The thin CA soaks into the wood and cures to a plastic like material that is much stronger then just the wood. Enjoy you videos and find them interesting and informative. Thanks.

[@chemcody5119]

I like this format Marius. Part of what makes your videos so appealing is your sense of humor. We also enjoy watching you as you think in German and then translate your thoughts as you speak in English. We have a friend that does this only his first language is Spanish. It is difficult and we appreciate that. Keep up the good work!

[@MrPeterwaldi]

Thanks for the video, I liked it! These vlog type videos are nice to watch, when they're done by someone who is clever. Like you. And no, I don't think that there's a need for another bowl preparation video.

[@JoeDavis82]

I enjoy the shop update videos because it gets me motivated in my shop

[@boomfiziks]

Enjoyed your vlog. You do what is necessary for you. So whether you are doing a 10+ minute, multi-part video of a large project, or you are doing 15 second video recap video of something you've already done (or will be doing)...I enjoy them all. I don't know why, but I really enjoy watching your new sliding table saw in action...that is so NEAT!

[@WestTexasRingo]

I enjoyed this video very much. I appreciate the time and effort you put into all your videos. Keep up the good work.

[@morto360]

I really like concept of having 2 channels for videos like this. John Heisz is a good example for that!

[@dickhorner]

Please produce more videos, Marius. You do make them very good! I live in Michigan, and I'm interested in the different makes of tools and equipment used in other regions. Your new table saw is wonderful. I wouldn't have thought it could work in a small shop, but you seem to have a system. Happy vacation.

[@yummboy2]

I find your videos very enjoyable. You do an excellent job explaining what you are doing and why. I also appreciate the time you spend editing, as the quality definitely shows. Something that comes to mind that you may be able to help with is about bandsaw blades, like the tpi, the rake, etc for materials like MDF glue-up 2 to 2-1/2 inches thick. Thanks!

[@MariusHornberger]

4-6 TPI works great for that.

[@fredhem]

Mate, your vids are great, and I see that you use time on them based on the high quality. I would love to see something like this again, and also wood turning bowls as you mention

[@funwithrepair]

Never mind Marius, Just enjoy yr Holiday and maybe that way you will come to new ideas and inspirations. very enojoyable as all ways,

[@lucianonarno1408]

Hey, Marius, I'm a big fan of your videos. I also do woodworking. I really liked this video because it gave me an insight on what's it's like having a shop, and, for example, cleaning the dust collector and air filters. I do not have a dedicated space for woodworking though :(. Cheers from Mexico city. :)

[@BaNuj]

When i started watching your films i thought that you were Polish, how surprised i was when i discovered that you are my neighbor- German :) Good luck!

[@jorgefernandez8774]

todas las cosas que vos nos compartis son bienvenidas, gracias por jorge de argentina

[@tympt1]

Well done Marius. I like your style. Regards - the other Barry from England!

[@veronica5896]

Really liked this video, wouldn't mind you making some more vids like this =) So a big yes to vlogs and other smaller update vids =) Thanks for sharing =)

[@suckers0]

Love all your videos (and your style) and appreciate the effort that goes into them. Please don't become a slave to us KZbinrs though - if you start to worry about not producing enough video then the fun goes out of it - for you - and instead of recording projects YOU want to do you'll start undertaking projects for others benefit. So, carry on as before but feel free to take time off without producing anything.

[@Trucker101]

don't worry too much about being fluent, I talk like your outtakes & I get along fine LOL Oh & I Liked this update.

[@Perrok]

still liked the talking :) im always watching your video's with my family haha we love them.

[@MariusHornberger]

toppertjuu Haha cool, thank you!

[@SawDustMakerRJM]

Sometimes I struggle with finding the right words or phrase while videoing so at times there is a pause. Most times I leave it in the video. Shows that I am human :) Any way great video. Keep doing what you are doing.

[@Jer_Schmidt]

Great video! I enjoyed the vlog-style video, I say keep them coming!

[@garybaxter6668]

it's good. I like to see the stuff you make out of wood

[@Patriciofloripa]

Good video. I like the outtakes ate end. Lol. Keep the videos coming

[@newhollandtm1400]

I like this video, especially the dust bin!

[@houtjeboom]

Great video.... lookin forward to the cyclone... I know what you mean... recording 10 times what you wanna say on the video... But you are doing well !! The people who live outside germany would have the same problem talking german... or in my language dutch :-)

[@Trucker101]

houtjeboom English is my native language but you'd never know it some times lol

[@amiddled]

Agreed - I'm English, and Marius' English seems pretty good to me. Maybe better than mine :)

[@FredrikRambris]

Thanks for making an effort to put out a video although you're on vacation. As long as there is interesting content a video is always appreciated. Don't force it though. If you don't have anything to show then there is no point in my opinion. (This video was interesting). I like the style that Steve Ramsey and Jay Bates makes their update videos. On a separate channel and in between project videos. One way of making them would be to collect small updates throughout the week and then roughedit them togheter and post on sundays. Sort of a weekly recap.

[@amiddled]

The pin-point accuracy on the new saw looks incredible! Hope its working out for you. I have the same planer/thicknesser, but don't have time at the moment to do the upgrade, so I have ordered the fence on the Clas Olsen version - which looks completely flat, but is made out of aluminium. I am starting to wonder if I should have just done this upgrade though - looks very stable.

[@Garageworkshop]

I like these informal random update videos. As fat as I'm concerned keep doing them.

[@opietjepietje]

Marius, i like your videos, but I wondered why you don't have a plastic bag in your dust collector? Now you make extra dust in your shop when you emptied the dust collector. Keep going with your projects!!👍

[@ReadandWite]

I enjoyed it as much as any of the other videos you have produced. You have a very dry humour that comes over very well. Is Petzi your girlfriend ? Enjoy your holiday and don't forget to make a video of converting your grandfather's wood into furniture.

[@MariusHornberger]

Thanks and no she's not.

[@MrMalarix]

I am a big fan of your work and since you are asking for feedback ( if this is not the case I apologize for this post) you could use some knowledge about making videos, I am not a professional so I wont be making any comments on how to do it, how to make them even better. One could benefit from having a bigger perspective and that is usually gained when studying from professionals, so you should consider studying video/ photography... in a suitable environment ( specialty books, classes ...). I am not saying to make Hollywood films, successful you tube channels generally have a realistic component, but knowing the artistic way will give you a definitive advantage on you tube. What I am trying to say is that one could make good videos with the same approach as making a nice piece of furniture, in a pragmatical manner, but it is even more appealing when there is an artistic component. I love your videos and I wish you all the best!

[@MariusHornberger]

Alexandru Alanei Feedback is always welcome. Thanks!

[@georgefusek2860]

I like your youtube video's. You give me good ideas for use in my shop, which I haven't through of.

[@srendanaa1132]

i like it as much as all our videos.

[@KSFWG]

Thanks for the update and the video.

[@DerekRaycraft]

Definitely enjoyed the video.

[@BlackBeautyDD]

please more! and a nice fence...

[@doubledarefan]

Another bowl-turning vid is just as willkommen (welcome) as any other. If you have not, check out Carl Jacobson's channel. He regularly turns out turning vids. Yet he draws a crowd none-the-less. Bring it on, Marius!

[@sunc93]

Hey, also so ne Videos sind immer willkommen. Ich hab noch ne Frage. Ich hatte vor auf meine Akkuschrauber oben nen starken Neodym Magnet zu kleben, damit ich sie unter meinem Schrank hängend lagern kann. Meinst du das ist eine gute Idee oder sind die Magneten eher kontraproduktiv für den Motor? Der arbeitet ja selber auch mit Magneten.

[@MariusHornberger]

Hmm, da bin ich überfragt. Aber ich denke nicht dass es schaden wird.

[@jonneneva4372]

Hey Marius, I thoroughly enjoy your videos. The only gripe I have is that there are too few of them! :D

[@martijnfransen9933]

i like these kind video's also. Having a high end video every week seems not realistic.I think you are already do a great job!

[@attpureownpk]

enjoyed it very much!

[@PinHolePip]

Your videos are quite good in general. John H., and Jay B., make good points.

[@eoind3302]

I liked this video , good job

[@MarkMcCluney]

Like that fence upgrade. I just got one of those planer/thicknessers a wee while ago and intend to make a similar improvement - really like that levelling-screw-adjustment arrangement. I wonder if tee-nuts might have been a little easier than tapping the plywood uprights? Nice vid mate!

[@MariusHornberger]

Mark McCluney T-nuts are wider than the plywood and you would have to drill a hole anyways.

[@edwaggonersr.7446]

I enjoyed the update.

[@petersmith5199]

Write your script on a large piece of paper and hang it by the side of the camera, that may help? But your videos are brilliant anyway. Thanks for the hard work you put in to create them. Danke!

[@MariusHornberger]

peter smith Good idea, but most of the time I have no script.

[@Fu86]

Like it, please more :)

[@dylnwllms]

I like it

[@Jonas4747]

Also ich finde solche Videos gut. Von den Nussbaum Stämmen für die Schalen möchte ich gerne das Sägen mit der Bandsäge sehen! Das grobe drechseln finde ich persönlich nicht so wichtig, da du ja bereits ein Video dazu hast. Weiter so Jonas

[@MariusHornberger]

Jonas4747 Das Sägen ist aber auch in einem anderen Video von mir mitinbegriffen.

[@MrTipoli]

Don't torture yourself too much about making the same-ish video twice. Look at mtmwood. He does cutting boards after cutting boards. Still great videos.

[@mickgentry8128]

Still enjoyed the video.

[@monvier2]

:)

[@salland12]

5:50, i'am sorry i had to laugh ^^

[@passionwoodworking9223]

It is indeed not easy to make a good video, the worst is when you have a long segment and you almost make it to then end, then get tongue tied haha. Although it is hard to concentrate on your video when you have that amazing table saw in the background!

[@gamingSlasher]

When you see these kind of videos you imagine that they were just shot in a row for some hour or so. Guess they are not :)

[@mickstephenson]

Knowing you have to do lots of retakes, your arm must get very sore holding that camera up like that.

[@MariusHornberger]

Michael Stephenson haha. Fortunately it's a compact camera and not a DSLR.

[@GermanASLchannel]

Why don't you put a garbage bag inside your garbage bin? This way it's more easy to get the dust out? There are clamping rings outside specially made for blue garbage bags: www.hygi.de/flora_sackhalterung_beutelboy,pd,1267,39779.html

[@MariusHornberger]

GermanASLchannel Seems like you didn't watch my other videos about the dust collector.(don't mind) My dust bin was especially designed for using it with a bag. And it also works really good, but I couldn't fix the issue with it getting deflected because of the vacuum. So I tried to leave the bag out this time.

[@garybaxter6668]

go to the beach
