Be careful - the one I purchased lasted 45 minutes and died.

I just picked one of these up a few weeks ago for $55... A week later with the 20% off coupon I could have had it for $52. From what I've seen so far this vise seems like quite the bargain in the $50-$55 range. FYI no installation hardware comes with the vise, which stinks. I picked up some 1/2" lag screws, probably overkill, but it was too large for the holes. I thought about reaming out the holes but my luck would be that I'd crack the casting and lose the 90 day warranty and my $55. I will buy some 3/8" lag screws tomorrow and get his mounted up. I like your solution for putting a recess in the inner chop. I think I'll follow your lead and do the same thing.

was searching for an explanation for my igcse physics chpter i was absent for.... urs was the only one, thanks! 🙏

Hi im in the same boat now to buy this. Known part is the machine cost. I have no 230v outlets. How much did the electrician putting it in cost? Would like to get an idea. Thanks

What is all the hardware I need to purchase?

I bought the 102 and the 65 1/2 over the course of the last year. I noticed something that could be a factor in why they aren't amazing. I think it comes down to the milling process. These planes were milled pretty decent, but because they were milled, there's no finesse to them. As the user, I think we need to take them that extra step further. Round the edges, file the adjuster screw a little as well as the receiver groove in the iron. And use the heck out of them. I bet that the No. 4 model suffers from this more, because it is the largest plane. Everything needs to be eased and finished so it feels like you've been using it for 20 years before it actually feels right. I've done some magic with my 102 and 65 1/2 and they do feel a lot nicer than when I bought them. They adjust easier and feel better in the hand. Just my observations. Something else I forgot to mention: The 102 would be great as a luthier's plane. Buy 2-3 of them and put cambered edges on them so they work well to carve instrument bodies. They're cheap enough that you wont break the bank, even if you bought several and did some adjustment on each one to do a specific task.

Today's modern day 12V cordless tools are quite powerful and satisfy many types of work.

Here is my example: Franklin Polypropylene 30" x16" tool cart is $109.00 that I have been wanting for a long time. I could be waiting forever for it to go on sale to everyday members for probably $89.00. However, Inside Track has it on sale this month of August for $74.95. That's a difference of $34.95. The $34.95 minus $29.00 membership is a plus $5.05 savings for me from the regular price. As you pointed out, I would be crazy to pass up paying for the Inside Track membership with the discounted price and $5.05 discount to boot from the regular price, and then enjoy the benefits of the membership for the following year. My only concern, and it is a funny one, is that I will now be encouraged to do impulse buying to save in the future. Like I joke with the folks down at my local Harbor Freight that is less than a mile away..."This is the only place I come to, where I go broke saving money." :) Thanks for the video jldwoodworking, and points well made.

I think it's more geared toward the hobby crowd. I'm a modeler and these would be great for those kind of tools.

i had a friend that put a crochet on his bench bull to do dovetail work. made loading and unloading the workpiece really quick. never did it myself but it looked effective. i use a moxxon vise that's just a couple boards held together with f-clamps and holdfasted to the bench. might revisit the bench bull idea and see if it's useful for me.

Thanks for the video. I don't use dowels all the time, but buying this allows me to make hard to find dowels

I bought one, it is ok. I took the spring off as it cants the chuck/drill bit towards the shaft with the spring as there is a bit of slop in the sleeves that ride up and down the shafts. I removed the two hard plastic sleaves from the chuck carrier and replaced them with a piece of ultra slippery Teflon PTFE 1/16" thick sheet (McMaster Carr part# 8545K13) that I rolled into a cylinder. To cut the strip uses the full height of the hard plastic insert to measure for the width of the strip and marked a line with a sharpie. Cut the strip off with sharp scissors. Then roll the end of the strip around one of the steel shafts(PTFE is soft) and mark the approximate length needed to make a complete cylinder, you will have to trim off tiny amounts of the length to get it to fit perfectly into the holes in the drill chuck carriage(it should be a tight fit), push the piece of PTFE all the way to the bottom, I needed to use the edge of a 3/8" dowel to to get the PTFE piece to bottom out. There is no need to reinstall the two screw they are not necessary as the Teflon fit it tight. All the slop is gone. Reassemble the drill guide and put a thin film of gun oil, 3 in 1 oil, synthetic motor oil, or the like on the steel shafts, it will be silky smooth and it will be an excellent tool. I would recommend mounting it to a 8" or 10" square base for stability. This is a light duty, hobbyist tool, do not expect to be drilling holes for pegging mortice and tenon joints in huge timbers.

That frame looks great.

If you just want a very nice besoke pencil sharpener the small plane is a beauty - It is also a nice plane for the tool pouch just for breaking edges - it is very handy

Could have been 5 min vid. Repeat. Boring.

Wood River makes chisels that you can buy at a decent price.

Jesus Christ Ronny Barker quit comedy and now does woodworking.

I love you man, but that wasn't worth more than a minute. Money comes and goes, but that's 5 minutes of my life that's gone forever.

Thanks for the video

Fail. You could have used the wire brush or file card without soaking in fkn Vinegar and got the Same result. Silly old Wives tale.

Thank you you did a great telling us

I was thinking if you could attached them to a wall they would be out of the way but easy access to the small stuff. Will the drawers Pull out all the way so you could access the back from inside to attach?

It doesn't come with hardware. Nor do the instructions provide the dimensions of the hardware that you need to purchase.

I see what you are doing, however you should put baking soda with the vinegar, the chemical reaction works much better, but thank you for bringing to me the easy fix

@JLD Woodworking: Thank you very much, brother, for this really helpful video, especially user-friendly, for A newbie like me, who is looking for her first beginner orbital sander. I can’t help it admire the control you had on the edge of that box there. It’s not everybody who could hold a sander out over the edge like that, and not round it off. Your channel is one I’ll come back to what I need to know more about tools and their use.❤

You've had it for a year now, would you still recommend it?

First time to your channel. Seeing a real-world review from someone who is experienced with planes is kinda refreshing. Thank you. 2 questions. What material is the screw cap made of? And what kind od wood are the knob and tote made of. Again, thanks for a good reiew

great information thanks,

Very helpful video. I had to go to Harbor Freight today to pick up a bunch of small items. Had never given serious consideration to joining Inside Track Club, but I saved almost the full cost ($30) of the 1-year membership just on the purchases I made today by doing so, and when the lady told me that it was only $15 extra to get the 2-year membership, I jumped at it. I do buy big items from time to time there so it will pay for itself. And since I moved, I am farther away from the nearest store now, by about 45 minutes, but I will probably start ordering things online from them now too, and I can use my membership for that as well. And with places like Amazon selling online almost everything I used to buy in stores, I figure I can order more from Harbor Freight as well.

Hey great video. Would you be interested in showing the results of using the drill with hard wood?

How has this held up? I want to use this plate to make dowels out if hard wood like osage orange and black locust.

I have all three. The 102 and 60 1/2 are very good. The #4 worked well at the start, until the screw threads in the frog (the one that holds the lever cap) got stripped. Now unusable unfortunately.

made in China .good

Watched your videos on the Jorgensen planes and bought three of them this weekend. The short version is that I think these are very good planes and outstanding values. These are easy to set up and perform outstandingly well when properly set up. I’m not a huge O1 fan and I was skeptical about their Rc claims but after sharpening all three of the irons I will say that I believe their claims. The No. 4 iron in particular was very hard, enough that I wouldn’t be surprised if it chips (but it hasn’t yet). The feel of the tote on the No. 4 is better than many similar smoothers in production today. I really like the central rib they’re using to keep the frog aligned. The only thing I really don’t like, and for this quality at this price I wouldn’t let it keep me from buying (already done…) and using (will be doing) these planes.

Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I'm just trying to learn and there is endless information out there. I like your approach, feels very down to earth.

Pre-resaw-milling… I need to try this so I stop sucking at resawing

So the 2A battery fully charged would be too small for this? For cutting 1x4 boards. I did 20 cuts and probably 18 I had to cut down through the board twice. Made lots of splinter too. Not sure what else would be wrong.

@jldwoodworking thanks for the lesson. You are charming and smart! Thanks for getting the warning out there. You are correct in saying the younger generation don't think about ergonomical issues. My suggestion for you is raise your entire work bench...the top of it should be at the top of your hip bone. If you raise it completely it will give you the opportunity for more storage underneath too!

can you use this vise without putting the wood inserts in?

This was really helpful. Thanks for all of your uploads, we’ve been binge watching lately!

Nice installation. I've just built a bench and that is the vice I will be installing as well. Also, you measured the clamp capacity at "5 1/2, would have rather had 6", the first thing I thought was, That's what she said. 😁 Have a good day.

Your vise is too low! It should be flush with the tabletop so you can use that screwed notched feature to sandwich work pieces against a bench dog.

You can flip your tools and use a router and jigsaw making board set up. 🐊

I picked up this saw off marketplace for cheap. I use a dewalt to ryobi battery adapter and it works perfectly fine. Use it for cordaround trim. I did put a 60 tooth diablo blade on it, and it cuts like butter. Beats dragging a 50ft extension cord up and down the stairs. My dewalt 5ah battery lasts all day pretty much. Good saw for the price.

Great review! I got the Jorgensen block plane from Lowes and noticed that the movable plate of the throat was a hair higher than the sole...had to lap a bit with 120 grit sandpaper on the MDF board. Hones the blade a bit...now it works fine.

Great product.

Why are you selling your table saw and jointer? Are you upgrading them both?

I got this block plane from Lowes recently but did notice that the movable mouth is slighty higher than the sole...just wondering if thats a common issue or just mine..

Again I just want to point out I am showing an older model and the new one is avalable at the Home Depot. Basically the same machine just molded plastic is different to work with the new Link system.

John - love your videos. I noticed you have WAY too many tools. I'm jealous. You sold me on the project vacuum. Now I have to break the news to the wife. Miss ya bud. Maybe some day we can cross paths again. Duck
