My name is Robert Tarr and I live in North Idaho. This is my dream shop and it is my place to relax, recharge, be creative and fix things. I love creating with wood and metal. I really enjoy fixing hard problems and teaching people useful skills. Finding new uses for old tools and putting tools back to work. I mix old school tools and new tools in my shop. Come join me as we share knowledge, create, fix things and learn a new skill.

Destress your glue ups! New way to make clamp cauls. Festool Domino!
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.6 месяцев назад
In this video we will be using a Festool Domino to make clamping cauls to help your glue ups. Clamping cauls are a life saver when doing panel glue ups, tables or cutting boards. This is an easy way to make a shop staple that saves you time and gives a helping hand when you most need it, at glue up.

Rust proofing cast iron tools in your shop?!? MiniMax S45 bandsaw Rebuild. HD 1080p
Просмотров 1996 месяцев назад
In this video, we will restore an older Minimax S45 bandsaw, tune it up and also apply cold blueing to prevent rust in the future.
I have one. It gets used 3-4 hours a day. The filter scrapers broke. It does plug up with fines easily if it gets close to full… I am thinking of modifying it so the steel shroud over the filters is removed. I dislike the amount of disassembly required to get at them. Otherwise I like the machine a lot. I have played with the idea of putting a cyclone separator out ahead of the unit with a larger drum capacity. We will sometimes joint and plane hundreds of feet of material and one empties the machine 5-6 times a day; and that gets old fast.
That is exactly the things I was thinking about. I have priced new filters and they are spendy as well. I do cheat and use the other cyclone to empty the bins on the Harvey bins. Takes about 15-20 seconds. Having to goof around with bags multiple times a day would get to me also! Thanks for watching!
Great video!
how important is the graphite impregnated guides and can I run the machine without the graphite inserts?
If the blade is tensioned, you can run it without the lower guides. You will get better results with guides, however. Guides are more important than the material, IMHO. I have used guides made of hardwood I soaked in 3in1 oil. They hold up great (got the tip from an old Shopnotes magazine, I think.) I used a set made from cocobolo left over from a pen, for years.
Thanks for sharing. How is air movement compared to the oneidas (v3000 or 5hp dust gorilla)? (and I'm guilty of similar man-handling of equipment, knowing it is ill-advised)
From what I can tell, it moves about the same amount of air on dual 4 inch lines or running a single 6. I suspect you would be able to run more 6 or 5 inch ducting (for longer) with the larger sized unit. For me in the shop, I knew I was never going to have more than one person working in the shop, meaning more than one tool at a time. I do think it will handle the larger drum sander, I have been eye balling, just fine.
Look up Stumpy Nubs 4 year RUclips review of the G700. He says it is comparable to the Clearview 5 hp unit he has as well. I LOVE mine!
Great review! Only confirms the decision that I made to have my own G700. Thanks.
Thanks! Good luck with your G700.
Sometimes, it's a good idea not to watch your husband unpack a really heavy tool. Yikes!
Leverage is your friend ;-)
I eventually cut out the grate because of the "fluffy" shavings...also used my Festool jigsaw to cut it out in about 30 seconds. The caution about the blower being in front is important....one shouldn't use a floor sweep with the G700 for this reason, IMHO.
Good advice!! I don’t have one and I have a magnet on my Rockler “shop vacuum “ attachment.
Robert, I wonder if you could help me. I have the same saw that you worked on, but the support for the upper blade guide is not installed. Would you share another video (or a few words) on removing and reinstalling this support. The parts I have include a spring and I cannot figure out where that goes. I appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks, Doug
Happy to help Doug! I sent you an e-mail.
Great tip and a great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I like this very good and simple many thanks
Thanks, Keith! I have the Domino XL, so I think I am going to try a set of "sideways cauls" and use the 14mm Domino for my Bessey K body clamps. I hope it helps!
Neat idea!
Thanks! It sort of acts like an extra hand.
Brilliant!!
Thanks, Jim! It sure is faster and easier than the others I have made/bought. Fun way to use up scraps, too!
@@rustednutworkshop Your mission for a follow up is to add a very slight radius that exerts more pressure in the middle of a panel where it's hard to get other forms of clamps to bring edges that are ornery to be level. 😊
@@jimbecker5675 Good suggestion, Jim. I have made them that way too. I usually use a hand plane to make the taper.
@@rustednutworkshop Another option would be to have one clamp captured and one that uses a slot at the other end so they are easier to install on a panel that's already in clamps...sliding in from the side.
Nice project! Small piece of trivia...S45 is the only bandsaw physically made by SCM/Minimax. It's been around virtually "forever" and is a great machine for the size, heft and money. That one is pre-2000 when they moved to the off-white paint that your other MM saw has. The bluing is an interesting technique...
Thanks Jim! I am looking forward to seeing how this old "trick" holds up in the shop.
