Suggest running dust collection from a Jackery. Jackeries can charge WHILE discharging, so you don't even have to unplug it to use it. They are available in a variety of sizes for a variety of budgets. You can even charge it up in the apartment, lug out to the workshop, and plug it into a handy power cord. You can, in fact, run a table saw with a Jackery.

I find it interesting that most woodworkers dislike the look of knots. I love them. I think they add a ton of visual interest, and you can do some really cool things with them. My favorite is metal powder and epoxy, though that's pricey and quite a bit of work.

2 Esdras 7:75 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?" 76 He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. 77 For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times. 78 Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. 79 And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept the way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear the Most High -- 80 such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways. 81 The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. 82 The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. 83 The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. 84 The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. 85 The fifth way, they shall see how the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. 86 The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. 87 The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they sinned while they were alive, and before whom they are to be judged in the last times. 88 "Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. 89 During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. 90 Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: 91 First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders. 92 The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. 93 The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the unrighteous wander, and the punishment that awaits them. 94 The third order, they see the witness which he who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. 95 The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. 96 The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come; and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. 97 The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. 98 The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom they served in life and from whom they are to receive their reward when glorified. 99 This is the order of the souls of the righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." 100 I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" 101 He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations." 102 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the day of judgment the righteous will be able to intercede for the unrighteous or to entreat the Most High for them, 103 fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." 104 He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The day of judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, 105 so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own righteousness and unrighteousness." .....2 Esdras 7:75 /////////

Congrats on your wedding. You surprised me by your shift to carving. I love it. It's my favorite way of working with wood. I started carving wood using a Trautman carver many years ago. I wish I had one today (they're too expensive and I don't think they would be sold to the general public - like most woodworkers). I did free form carving very similar to what you're doing. Sam Maloof was the first professional woodworker I know to do freeform carving (with a purpose). I thoroughly enjoy the technique and continue experimenting with it today. One thing I'd encourage you to do is to reinforce the joy of sanding freeform sculpture. You get to really see your work come together and become beautiful. It allows you to be able to spend many intimate hours in close proximity to your work.

Typically those apartment garage units have 2 circuits that jumper down the run of spaces. If you can get your neighbor to allow you to run an extension cord from their unit through the rafters over to your dust collector, you can get a second circuit. I had to do this when I was charging my car and running misc tools and dewalt chargers in my garage.

The idea behind hand tools is more about the process and the journey. As well as honing your personal skills in creating something that you can be proud of that you made. Basically it's just much more personal.

[@MaakaSakuranbo]

While I get that, where does it end? You don't use power tools, instead hand tools, so it's really you who made it. But you didn't make your own lumber. So you gotta make that now too instead of buying it precut. Oh, but you didn't fell the tree, so you gotta do that now too. Oh, but you didn't plant the tree. xD

i have no issue with using power tools over hand tools, but a Sander will not give you the same shimmer and grain detail that a hand plane will, sanding will trap small bits of sawdust inside of the pores of the wood, try face planing and orbital sanding two pieces and put a sealant on both and look at the difference closely, and you will see what i'm talking about

Many years ago I thought I'd challenge everything: why right angles? Why put legs right in the corners? I used organic curves and asymmetry. Same with the upholstery cover. It was practical, like having tiled spots to set drinks down. When I got married, my wife hated it! She said it looked like a bug. I ended up re-using material from it to make very conventional window benches, with perfect right angles and tight flat cushion tops. In pastel colors, no less!

Hand tools allow you to be more accurate when doing shapes. I mean people use jeweler files to finish off reduction gets after the gears were cut by machines to be gear shaped. You compare a gear set finished off with jeweler files vs ones not you’d find the one finished off with jeweler files are quieter, more durable, and more efficient. Hand tools are important because they can do things more accurately than any machine. If you touch a piece of wood to a belt sander you’re taking off a lot of material where if you rub sand paper on wood you’re taking off very little. Power tools help speed up the rough setup but hand tools help where fine details count.

[@BolinFoto]

It's about making money. If you fiddle around at home doing stuff for yourself then you can spend 30 minutes sharpening and tapping that planer to get the blade in the right position. But if it's your work then you need to use power tools. And if they had power tools in the past they would have used them in an instant. The only reason why ordinary people can afford something like a carved bookcase or a slab table today is because of power tools. It's about making money and making stuff that is affordable for other than the one percenters.

[@rickelpers1820]

One thing to assure you achieve your goal is always rest out a new product or whatever you introduce to your tool kit before you destroy your product and have to swallow your pride for making an untested decision. Always test the products on a scrap piece. Best a few square inches than a kitchen floor. Or what matters to you. Best to find out cheaply than expensively. Sanding doesn’t have to be boring. Look at it as fine tuning. I work y stone which has similar properties, working by hand. Power tools are indispensable. And are necessary equipment, plus hammer and chisels. Being hurried can or will cause damage and problems. Take the right amount of time for your level of skill. It always pays off.

[@robert-ne1835]

Sorry to be “That Guy”, but just want people to know that you can’t just “upgrade the breaker”, since the circuit is sized to properly protect the wiring. Instead, you would need to upgrade the wiring of the entire circuit to a larger size BEFORE you can install a higher amperage breaker. Better to just run another circuit if possible, which I understand is not possible for either option in this case.

[@PPedroFernandes]

But... You don't know what the wiring is. The wire might safely handle way more than what the breaker can provide, it's all down to who installed it

[@robert-ne1835]

@@PPedroFernandes The wiring insulation will be identified with the size and insulation type which, in turn, informs of it's maximum amperage rating. Regardless, the vast majority of installations utilize the minimum size wire to handle the load of the circuit, and the maximum size over current protection device allowed for that wire, which is why I made my comment in the first place.

[@genecarden780]

@ A simple fact of residential construction. Any original bid that would include upgraded wire would have been discarded. The best evidence of this is his earlier videos where he stated that when he “ blew a circuit breaker” he didn’t have access to reset it. Any developer that doesn’t have individual breaker boxes is not gonna pay for more expensive wiring

[@robert-ne1835]

@@genecarden780 "only uneducated" covers a vast portion of society, as demonstrated by people replacing blown fuses with larger fuses so they don't continue to blow. That is one of the reasons circuit breakers became so popular. It is a simple concept, but not a "simple fact" that everyone understands. Also, I completely missed the fact that he doesn't have access to the circuit breaker, which is interesting since the dwelling occupant must have access to all circuit breakers unless access is available to "qualified persons" at all times. Sorry, I don't have my code book with me to refer to the article, but I am certain it is in there.

I'm doing that bottom texture thing inside my beehive to promote propolising. The inside of a beehive can contain propolis, a sticky resinous substance that bees use to construct and repair their hives: Antimicrobial: Propolis has antimicrobial properties that help keep the hive sterile. Sealing: Bees use propolis to seal cracks and openings in the hive. It's also used to waterproof and smooth the internal walls. Strengthening: Propolis helps strengthen the hive's protective barrier against weather and external invaders. Preserving: Propolis protects the hive's structure from water, fungus, and wood decay. Natural defense: Research suggests that the propolis envelope is a vital part of the colony's natural defense against disease.

As far as your electrical problem brother, i suggest a Generator. i particularly prefer the Predator 5000 from Harbor Freight. Its affordable and its awesome. trust. Did i mention its quiet? Its quiet! Oh, and considering the fact that you are using equations to fit wood, i can guarantee you can learn how to sharpen a saw blade. Frfr. Its fairly simple and all you need is a dremel. Even if you dont do a perfect job sharpening your blade you will not be far off, and promises it will cut much better than it was in the video. Most likely as good as new. with a little practice you will be able to make it better than new. and keep it that way!

[@Redraven2967]

No, some of us just like the nostalgia and satisfaction of using hand tools. There is no such thing as an obsolete tool if someone can use it effectively as it was designed to be used. I will agree that those that say you are not a woodworker because you prefer power tools are absolutely incorrect. If you create out of wood, it doesn’t matter what type of tools you use, you are a woodworker. I have owned and do own a large variety of power tools, mostly things like my lathes and table saws from the late 1800’s to the 1930’s and love to use them when the project dictates the need, same with my modern band saw for resawing lumber and my modern drill press which was a gift from my father. But for me, I would have used a plane not the sander but my plane irons are kept sharp and set up properly, same thing with my hand saws, they are kept sharp and would have gone through that board with little effort. Not as easily as a table saw mind you but very easily. So realize that there are those of us out here that are master craftsmen that respect all different methods of working with wood and would like to see you do the same.

[@sjohnson-et7wd]

Look into a battery box (like jackory), charge it when not there and run your dust collection off that when using the table saw.

[@plasmar1]

for your breaker issue, try to see if one of those portable battery companies sponsor one of your videos, I'm sure one would be enough to run the dust collector on occasion; or can try a UPS for a computer but not sure if it would do it as well........

[@brentkinsworthy4999]

You should try incorporating live edge and drift wood into your projects.

[@hrachakopyan1268]

Sanding can be enjoyable with good music that you can get away with on speakers. Been there bro.

[@zeff1015]

FYI, denatured alcohol will help release hot melt glue. Depending on the glue you use and the material, it may release with almost no effort at all.

[@islandwills2778]

I use a mix of hand and power tools. Sometimes the hand tool really is the better, faster, easier option. And sometimes it absolutely is not

[@ErtsenPlayGames]

7:45 you could ask for "ac powerbank" to test it and power your extra tools plus advertise that product in same time :)

[@568843daw]

My mother was a Fine Furniture maker before retiring. Her creations were pricey, exclusive and beautiful. She used modern equipment and some hand tools. It was really dependent on the piece being created. However, she had a firm belief that using modern tools as much a possible was the only way to go. She said that if sanders, routers and planers were around in the colonial era, the tradesman would have used them. It makes sense doesn’t it?

[@loganlawlyes1980]

I only use hand tools because most of my shop is dedicated to metal working. That and I find some to be faster, like draw knives

[@mrcryptozoic817]

Why worry at the start about the imperfections in the wood (except for knots) and then power carve the bejesus out of it?

[@rickelpers1820]

One thing to assure you achieve your goal is always rest out a new product or whatever you introduce to your tool kit before you destroy your product and have to swallow your pride for making an untested decision. Always test the products on a scrap piece. Best a few square inches than a kitchen floor. Or what matters to you. Best to find out cheaply than expensively.

[@Bogie3855]

Wood usually reacts when you plane it so best to do so just before you do your glueup. The longer you leave it the more likely it is to move on you.

[@TheBronco67]

something you might want to consider for your carving is one of the wheels that those who do hoof trimming use

[@jpmccue7]

I think the Micro-jig would make those tapers much easier, possibly, and a lot of good tips in this video, thanks

[@robertberger8642]

Beautiful results!

[@Gotblade]

For that build up on the saw blades have you tried spray on oven cleaner? I would think it's pretty much the same problem. I remember it being recommended for router bits but I haven't tried it.

[@Tbick321]

Love the Jason Bent Easter egg. He’s one of my fav’s

[@guypehaim1080]

Horizontally and vertically are adverbs which are modifying the word plunge.😊

[@tintruder224]

Pretty sure these disc planer tools are also used by cow hoof trimmers and horse farriers.

[@hgbugalou]

Putting a softstart on both your dust extractor and saw will likely allow you to run both at the same time.

[@JamesLewis]

Have you considered a couple of deep cycle batteries and a mains inverter to run that vacuum for the short periods needed when you would exceed the power from the breaker?.... you would just need a decent automatic charger to keep it topped up for the times when you need it.

[@TheBawlz09]

That board definitely had a thing or 2 in common with a lot of my exes

[@itsROMPERS...]

Use leveling feet. They work better and are much easier to install. You could even make your own from wood.

[@seanp2k617]

Maybe get a “solar generator” big battery thingy to run the dust collector?

[@Nevir202]

TBH in this day and age, if you have issues with trying to run two appliances at once on your low amp breaker, buying a big lithium battery and running one tool off it while you run the other on grid power is probably the easiest solution, if upgrading the electrical service isn't doable. And depending on the complexity of the upgrade and your ability to DIY, it may even be the cheaper option.

[@brettdrought6181]

I've watched your videos for a while and have always enjoyed your "off the beaten path" take on things. When you started power carving this table, I thought you had finally gone over the edge. You proved me wrong. The final product looks great. Just a couple of minor concerns on my part. How does a college educated man not know that horizontally and vertically are words? My other concern is, as an engineer, how have you not used the Pythagorean theorem since middle school and how can you be bad at math and be an engineer? The problem is, you slip so many sarcastic moments into your videos (that's great) that this time I could not tell if you were kidding or not. Love the humor. My family is from Ohio. I was born in Ohio, even though I have lived in Texas for 62 of my 66 years. Must be an Ohio type of humor that I always heard from my dad and his brothers. Keep up the fun videos.

[@frank-hd6ts]

Sir, you have a great imagination. I would have never come with an idea like that table. It came out great. I have to check of Arbortech tools. Thanks.

[@IrishSchaller]

Surely, if you're going to make a high end object, you would inspect the timber at the yard and choose the lengths you want.

[@WFKO.]

the boards do not stay straight. no matter how much you plane. as long as the tree doesn't dry in the forest without being taken down. And maybe the ones they pull out of the bottom of lakes? We don't have them here.

[@joanschwartz798]

I love the “driftwood” look……one of my faves in making custom, natural designs. Great job!

[@sheikhkhalid5969]

The best shapers i have use are from harbor freight. Two tungsten carbide impregnated shaping discs, 7.99 each😎

[@davidfreeman5966]

Me to my wife when the power carving tools "hey babe! He's got that thing you got in your nightstand!"

[@gaborraczjr.5764]

When you talk about how hand tools are kind of outdated in many cases, you might be partially right, but I think you miss one thing, and that is the completely different approach that today's woodworkers have compared to say a couple hundred years ago. As you also stated in this video, nowadays most designs are only including flat surfaces, perfect 90 degree edges- and really not much more at all. Which is a taste thing, and "de gustibus non est disputandur", so I'm not implying that it is wrong or anything, though sure I think most people who look at 18th century furniture and say it is outdated don't realize that the reason why trends have changed so much and took a much more minimalist approach is at least partially because these "new" shapes (flat, straight, 90 degrees) are much easier and cheaper to produce in either buildings, furniture or clothing. They also allow the use of much cheaper materials, like mdf instead of very expensive lumber like you used in this project. In addition, these shapes are much more convenient if you are trying to mass produce furniture, which at the end leads to big factories like Ikea being able to lower the costs of production and still have an end product that many people will think looks good. So it's kind of like financial aspects are what shape style trends, and at the end of the day influence our taste and what we find pretty, which is a more rational reason why I personally dislike this change that has happened since the beginning of the 20th century. Back to my main point: The reason why you might say that hand tools are not convenient or relevant for you is because they are very good at producing flat surfaces and 90 degree angles, and they do that ridiculously fast. But if you were to say start a project in the style of Louis XIV., you will very soon have to grab those hand tools. Now that's what these people you were talking about don't get.

[@coilte]

Where do you get your wood from? I live in Central Ohio and with just starting my woodworking hobby I need somewhere better than the big box stores.

[@Ferrari255GTO]

It's funny how it began as an abstract project and became something on the other extreme of the spectrum

[@tomsmithnosky3408]

you could add a battery backup to run another tool or a gas powered generator

[@motionsick]

3:05 lol that actually caught me off guard. 😅

[@42BillD]

Wood moves, any board that sits for awhile even after being surfaced most likely will not stay perfectly straight or flat.

[@IppiopaidFEEDBACK]

What the heck did I just watched….? That was really amazing!

[@MarijnStevens]

The only sacrifices I've seen in our meetings are huge amounts of time. I wasnt a member of that cult, i just joined to find out if it felt home to me ... still searching!

[@terryvickers5986]

Re Table saw dust. Get a generator that will run either the table saw or the dust collector.

[@rollovaughan]

No. I got to 29:00 by skipping forward loads so I could see the power carving. I don’t have half an hour free. I’m going for a pint with George now.

[@MrLawandorderman]

Only one complaint and it’s not just about your channel, I’ve been a woodworker for 50 years and still love it. I hate virtue signaling, or ‘look how much safety gear I use.’ Don’t need you lecturing me, I saw plenty of things you could have done more safely. Don’t waste my time if you want me to watch unless your whole video is about safety, then I can skip it. In the mean time keep up the good work, being creative is fun.
