STOP waiting to buy these TOOLS

Buying tools comes with the territory of being a woodworker and I think I've bought my fair share of em'. Some I DEEPLY regret and others I just felt kinda "meh" about. These tools here though...I should have bought them A LOT sooner! Let me know what you think!?
Enjoy!

Thank you so much Joe. That means so much to me. 🙏 I'm going to do my best!

Clean entry with your wood is one of the most important things

[@JasonGrissom]

I find going hard and fast seems to do the trick.

I’m a Festool fan. But their sanders were not one of the things on my list. UNTIL…. I started having lots of allergy issues from other sanders. Even while wearing dust masks. I’d wear my RZ mask and sure it helped while I was sanding. But the sawdust it left everywhere was easily disturbed and would always find it’s way into my system. The shop was always covered in dust. The DOmino was first… wish I had bought it sooner. THe track saw was next…. Wish I got it sooner. And then the sander…. Should have bought it sooner as well. THen… my second sander. LOL. I have a Rotex and the one you showed. Love them!!!! Of course… I have the dust extractor. Got it when I bought the track saw. And I splurged earlier this year and got an MFT/3 table. LOVE IT!!!!

[@JasonGrissom]

Holy smokes Angie! 1st. Thanks for binging a couple of my videos! 🙏 2nd. Wow! A Festool fan indeed! 🤣 The sander and the CT 48 are the only things I have. FOR NOW! A domino and track saw are definitely on the wish list. How do you like the Rotex?

[@Bugeater61]

Great video, thanks for the info and laughs.

[@JasonGrissom]

Glad you liked it Michael! Thanks for sharing. 🙏

To me a laser, I have a bedroom with 5 windows and had to put up curtain rods.

[@JasonGrissom]

Oh man! I got a laser level not to long ago when I was working on a subway tile wall. GAMECHANGER. Only thing about it is its a "cheaper" amazon one (like 150ish bucks) and it doesnt work too well out in the sun. But for indoors I havent had a problem with it.

[@TheSwedishMaker]

I am so glad I watched this. I just bought that sander and what you said justified my purchase 😂

[@JasonGrissom]

Happy to help! Us tool collectors have to stick together. 😂

[@SeanDPD]

I bought that brad point bit set after the previous time you recommended them and they've been great; definitely my go-to set these days.

[@JasonGrissom]

Thats awesome Sean!! Happy to hear they're working out for you. I guess every once in awhile I have a good idea. 😂

[@SAUdustBuilds]

I've had those drill bits in my cart since the other video.

[@JasonGrissom]

Fair enough. They aren't cheap but I'm really enjoying them.

[@miltoneaton9038]

I used Rubio Monocoat for awhile but had a callback on a project. Tried OSMO and love it. Great video. CMT makes great router bits as well.

[@JasonGrissom]

Really!? What a bummer. I have heard good things about OSMO as well though. Haven't tried it myself yet. Is the application process the same? Finish and everything the same as well? Thanks for sharing! Appreciate you. 🙏

[@DudeSawdust]

Hilarious and informative! Nice job and keep my entertainment coming!

[@JasonGrissom]

Will do! Thanks for the support Logan. And also wanted to give you another thank you in advance. I'm starting the filming of the next video today and after watching your latest video it really motivated me to share more of my personal journey so I'm working on incorporating that in the next one.

[@DudeSawdust]

@@JasonGrissom Right on! I look forward to it. I'm glad I could have a positive impact.

[@coreydavoll7622]

I keep a Rogid under the work bench. I put a set od bearings in it and now it needs them again. Went with mekita, should have went higher quality.

[@JasonGrissom]

I've heard pretty good things about the Makita. It's always hard to tell people that they should spend X amount of dollars on tools. Everybodies budget is different. I personally am at the point where I know this whole making/woodworking thing is going to a part of my life for the forseeable future so I may as well invest in it. I'm priviledged enough to have the means to do so. But it wasn't always that way. Hence. The ridgid sander. 😂 BUT it was a heck of a let better than doing it by hand. So in that sense. 50 bucks well spent! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. 🙏

[@b.a.millerwoodwork7074]

I'm at that point as well. I cheated out on dust extraction and now it's costing me more. Live and learn. Thanks for the videos. Keep up the good work!

[@arthur962]

Forrest saw blades bro....the best blades for most things.

[@JasonGrissom]

I have heard great things about them. So you'd say they're worth the money?

[@arthur962]

@@JasonGrissom oh hell yes...I run a commercial shop and Forrest is all I use on my cabinet saws. I use Various teeth counts and grinds depending on material being cut but all are Forrest. They are absolutely bar none the best.

[@JasonGrissom]

Well gah dang. Guess I'll have to get one. I do "need" a new crosscut blade. 🤔

[@arthur962]

@@JasonGrissom I say go for it...they have thin as well as regular 1/8 kerf too. Just out of curiosity, do you clean your blades at all after x amount use or no?

[@JasonGrissom]

@@arthur962 I have never cleaned a blade. 😬 To be honest I've until very recently always used "disposable" (diablo) blades. Now that I have some more premium-ish blades I'd like to get a good cleaning solution for them.

[@ranaefunk5321]

Love the comedy.

[@JasonGrissom]

That's awesome! Mission accomplished then. Thanks for sharing...Tom. (I assume) 🤣

[@brenperkins3117]

Great video as always! I’ve got to say, if I were to start buying tools all over I’d probably skip the multi-tool. I just never seem to find stuff to use it on.

[@JasonGrissom]

Thanks Bren! Oh really!!? I love mine. To be honest I could see where it gathers dust for a bit but for me it's been a HUGE help in renovation projects and can't imagine not having it now.

[@tomfunk3053]

Got two cans of Rubio. Haven't tried them yet.

[@JasonGrissom]

Oh man. There is NO going back. You've been WARNED. 😂

[@chrisjaustin88]

17% more space on the sander from 5 inch to 6 inch

[@JasonGrissom]

Hmm...maybe my math is wrong but from what im getting. 5 to 6 is only ~17% increase but since were talking about surface area of a circle I think it'd be ~19.6 inches squared at 5 inches and ~28.2 inches squared at 6 inches. Making it a 43% increase. But its 150mm not 6 inches so thats why my number in the video was a bit smaller. But hey! It wouldnt be the 1st time I didnt know what I was doing. 😂

[@chrisjaustin88]

@JasonGrissom nope ypu got me. I needed to calculate the ratio with the area of the circles. You were right in the video. It's a 30% increase in area. Geez when you think about jumping from a 5 to 6 inch sander you don't think about a significant jump like that. Touche good sir.

[@JasonGrissom]

@@chrisjaustin88 😂 hey im just waiting for someone to come and say were BOTH wrong now. But yeah. Regardless of what percentage it breaks down to. Just in the feel/improvement its a noticeable difference. Oh and I didnt say it the 1st time. Thank you for watching the video and taking the time to comment. I appreciate ya! 🙏

[@arthur962]

It's funny, I have every tool you show here in multiple configurations. As far as the festool Sanders....if you don't have it already you need to get a festool vacuum to go along with it....the anti static features keep the Sanders from burning out the electronics.....ask me how I know....lol

[@JasonGrissom]

Oh no! 😱 yeah I got the CT 48 when I bought the sander. They're my little dynamic duo in the shop. 😂

[@arthur962]

Or, you buy the 3M or Airvantage, save some money, get a better sander, and don't join the Fescult

[@JasonGrissom]

Thanks Paul! Plenty of great options out there!

[@paulhopkins1905]

@@JasonGrissom I was being facetious, the Festool, 3M/Airvantage/Surfprep, Bosch and Mirka are all really good. Way better than any big box offering. I have the 3M in a 3/16 stroke and the Airvantage in the 3/32 (same sander) and they were both game changers for me

[@JasonGrissom]

@@paulhopkins1905 oh all good. I appreciate people sharing their experiences and opinions. I was actually very resistant to Festool originally. In fact I was on my way to British Columbia to a Lee Valley to get a Mirka when I decided to stop by a little lumber mill. They had the Festool there on demo and well...the rest is history. 😂 Again. A sincere thank you so much for sharing Paul.
