Exactly what I would have done!!!…Looks good!!!

Great little project for oldies like me who are new to woodwork. This is perfect for stands for my collection of planters and pots outside to raise the back ones up so they can be seen.

Its like getting inflated chicken on the market full of water to raise the price per weight and once rostisseried one is left with so much less ....🤔😡

So when are you going to start selling these tool stands? Your work is beautiful. You had me when you rounded off the ends. Now that was it. So what does the little woman think of the stand?

I was gifted one from a house I bought and the previous owner left it. It worked for awhile but started making the noise. I mist have gotten to it too late because even after doing all this the noise persisted and eventually i started to smell hot metal. Bearings are probably done for. Maybe there is a replacement part on eBay 😢

Robertson is simpler and works well in high-torque applications.

Would you advise against using this blade for crosscutting?

OMG ... Thank you for sharing this. I was at a complete loss as to how to replace my busted cable inherited in the old house I bought.

good stuff!

wouldn't be cheaper doing with concrete? Cement, sand, gravel.?

That was interesting Art! Thanks. JimE

Great product good review!

huh? I'll have to look up its material compatibility list/chart. -Is there a maximum gap -to- it can bridge?- (edit:) The gap I have to fill exceeds the specified _sieve_ size Aquaphalt passes through. Appears to be demonstrated adhering to a sound layer asphalt or concrete, so I _still_ need to (not be lazy and) build up a supporting bed in the bottom of the gap (and probably extract the pseudo-stucco shell). (...every week;) I've started filling in the gap around my driveway with washed pulverized gravel and sand (donated by the city road works, to my lawn...) to replace the composting debris and weeds. But that patch material might be a better defence against water and ants - Or motivation for me to figure out how to harvest the remaining gravel that the leaf blower and the city's vacuum-tractor-thing didn't. [our] Builder company used 'something - mud' (I suspect "the new guy" put actual mud into the mix, to dress up the foundations), then [the builder's] warranty company built up a significant grading difference on top of what the builder's left (while re-patching areas they noticed). Between ants preferring to nest under it and settling pulling the driveway away from the walls. it has peeled off in large flakes around the edges revealing a large gap around the edges.

Hey Art, like any good product, "buy once cry once" OH, are you going to have plans available for your asphalt tamper? ?? ???

I agree, good value when it lasts and performs well.

There seems to be a lot of new desktop lasers being released these days. It's always fun to have a new tool in the shop.

Thanks for this! Also not sure if this is a factor cause I’m a year late to this video - you’re not supposed to run a dust collector with the blower active as well.

This is my issue exactly! Thank you.

I think torx wins in standard hand driving in electronics and soft applications.

Great video. That looks like a solid unit. When your smoke extractor starts beeping let me know and I'll tell you what I do!

$700US for what is a fan and a HEPA filter(s)?

Techmoan reference!

Fun to have a new tool in the shop! Hope you get the air assist in soon and really good call to get the air filter with it. Pretty expensive though. Could you go over making a DIY version with some activated charcoal furnace filters? Is this unit powerful enough to engrave brass? I think a brass medallion with black lettering would look real classy on walnut pieces.

The Robertson, or square-drive screw, seems to stay better seated when aiming and driving wood screws.

Snapped/broken plenty of Torx bits...never a Robertson.

Beautiful end to a table worth saving. I have a bar table that I have kept because it has the same beautiful grain. Wanted to sell because of space but hated the idea of it being abused. Leaf could be well gone a decade ago or snug in some inconspicuous spot.

Thanks man A*****

Torx is harder on metal because the shape is sharper so it's weaker, you need quality driver good machining, it's a more expensive and demanding design. Try making drivers and screws with the same cheap iron sloppy shape and Robertson is winning any contest. 90 degrees is the best angle. Smaller makes the driver weak. Bigger makes the driver slip and dull. I have ruined some hex screws and some allen drivers. I turned super rusty old square nuts with loose tools, NEVER failed.

Discovered Torx screws 30 years ago, stopped using Robertson screws ever since.

Very useful video. Glad I watched

Good video. Smart man. Thank you from canada

This was a very good, clear, concise review. A torpedo level would be helpful in ensuring that the slide jig has not slipped. Kreg should've put a level in the jig. Take note that there are similar products available. I probably will buy these Kreg jigs for a drawer project.

Does anyone know what the cause of the color change is? I ask because it might be feasible to use a UV filtering finish, if that is the culprit, or add an anti-oxidizing compound to prevent oxidation... it's a stretch, but might be worth investigating... not just for Padauk, but for any tropical wood that tends to brown out over time.

what is the maximum coats of gel you can safely use on a project?

Hi Art. Is there a vibration when you put your hand on the table? I hear and feel a vibration on the table. thanks

As great as the Robertson screws are. I always hated them because as a kid I never had a Robertson screwdriver I only had slotted and Philips screwdrivers and always had to replace them.

Home Depot has some Torx head Tap-Cons, and they were pretty satisfying to put in, compared to the Tap-Con aggravation that can happen. The only problem is Torx bits are still somewhat alien to my tool boxes, just because they are more recent and less common, but as long as I have the bits I'm happy to use Torx.

I purchased a 2.5 gal wet/dry shop vac at a thrift store recently, it made an awful sound, so I disassembled it to see what was wrong. I then found a couple of mud wasp nests In the vent for the motor, and cleaned them out. I suppose now all I need to do is lubricate the bearing. Thanks for the video!

Very labor-intensive but very good save. Looks great 👍🏻

Awesome find. Great restoration.

Thats weird that your torx screws don't stay on the driver. I use both torx and roberston depending on what i can find and for me they both stay on. Maybe my set are magnetic. I find both to work well for me and i use them every chance I can find them.

Very nice Art, your tecknit is spot on, came out beautiful, do you think a wire brush would have helped cleaning out the grain?

You did an awesome job, Art. I can't count the many times I found beautiful pieces by the road and refurbished them. It is amazing to me how many people throw away good things...

Amazing how well that black spot got removed, I was thinking there was no way it was going to come off! Looks great!

Good job on the refinish. How much of the bottle of stripper did you use for a table this size? Thanks!

Looks great! Next video: a new leaf? :)

Maybe it was too short and someone added the blocks at the base to elevate the table? Any shadows in the old finish or wood to see that the legs were slid down and reattached? Very interesting!

RIP STEVE ALBINI

A satisfying project that yields a useful and handsome piece of furniture. Nice one Art!

I'd certainly buy that plane! I own a Veritas/ Lee Valley scrub plane, good stuff!
