Don't get mad. Get even! Leaky Garage door when it rains? Problem solved!
I installed a trench system inside my garage door and solved the floor puddle problems. Now this may not be your fix if you have wood studded shop or garage. My shop is a metal building with metal studs. This solved my issues and I hope it is something you can use to solve yours.

    Thank you Tracy for the Awesome video. I purchased a PC 4212 jig and I'm ready to try it. Mine has the 1/2" shaft bits. My router's have a 1/4" collet. Any recommendations. New bigger router or 1/4" bits if available ? Thank you

      @hammerdownwoodworkingtracy3679 2 дня назад

      @roberttravalent7782 Thanks Robert. If your budget allows for it, I would recommend a router with a half inch and quarter inch collets. Half inch bits do not have the flex as the 1/4 inch do. Especially when you are using longer bits. They also tolerate heat a little better and retain their sharpness longer. They will still build up heat but it's not as bad. I have 1/2 and 1/4 inch collets for most of my routers and it's nice having those options when you have a certain bit and you need a router it will fit

    Exactly. They want you to wipe it off and throw products in the garbage. Which does 2 thing. Makes it lighter if it's a lighter stain. And 2 makes you have to buy more stain. Do you ever have a problem with it being sticky and top coating right with the way you're doing it?

      @hammerdownwoodworkingtracy3679 12 дней назад

      No. Never have had a problem with it being sticky but I don't pour it on either. I just spread it out evenly and give it a proper dry time. Usually 24 hrs and some times, depending on the weather, two days. If it takes longer than 2 days, it's probably on too thick

    I have the jig that Chad makes and it works as designed on odd numbered pins , 3,5,7 etc as that leave an opening in the center of the board. Even numbered don’t have that open area to place the jig ? Did I miss something?? I don’t see how it would work on even numbered spaces ?

    • @hammerdownwoodworkingtracy3679
      @hammerdownwoodworkingtracy3679 14 дней назад

      @MikeyDonna i don't understand what exactly you have going on. Are you using Chad's jig on the "tail" side of the Porter cable template? Unless your porter cable template is bent, it should fit snuggly in any slot. If it is fitting right in some spaces and not others, you have tines bent on your template. 1. Make sure you are placing Chad's jig in the dovetail side of your PC template. 2. Check the gap between the tines of the tails template. There should be a 3/4 inch gap between all. Also check out the latest video on my channel as a step by step for using Chad's jig

    I have had one of these for about 10 years. It was very accurate; in fact I used the five-cut method to adjust it and the result was the near and far ends of the fifth cut-off were identical to the ten thousands of an inch. I repeated the test two more times got the same result. I used this strictly for 90º since my miter saw or my Incra V27 were more convenient for other angles. Since then I sold the table saw before moving, and upgraded at the new place. It's now not as easy to calibrate because there is more slop in the far end of the miter bar, and the adjustment ring is tightened to the max. I inserted a 0.010" leaf from an old feeler gauge between bar and slot, and am holding it in place with tape. The only time I use it is to cut sheet goods that extend beyond the edge of the table. The most accurate miter gauge that I have is the V27 that I bought 12 years ago; using the five-cut method, it has an error rate of 0.00001" per inch. I don't remember what I paid for it, but it's currently available from Incra for $75; it doesn't come with a fence, but a good quality 3/4" plywood works just fine.

      @iamthemoss No. Sorry but I don't. My son in law wanted this for Christmas so I sketch it up in sketchup and made it and recorded the build. I didn't keep the files. I probably need to start keeping them. I can tell you it was 4 ft wide and 4 ft long and I didn't make it long enough. Because when you sit on it the front end would raise up. I fixed that problem though by adding a couple I-bolts to the front legs and using some 1/2 rod i made stakes to drive into the ground through the I-bolts and that held the front end down. The seats were 18 inches off the ground and I believe the height of the table was something like 30 inches high. Hope that helps

    Nice video. I’m looking to build a half height door to cover access to a crawl space. Opening is 5 ft wide and 4 ft high. The door must travel to the left so I’m planning to make one door.

    • @hammerdownwoodworkingtracy3679
      @hammerdownwoodworkingtracy3679 2 месяца назад

      @gregj2647 Thanks Greg. My advice to your question would be to not use pocket hole screws due to the width of the door but ONLY if it is on hinges. 5 ft wide creates a lot of leverage of the doors construction. If your adding barn door hardware so that the door is hung and the weight is distributed across the top of the door, then pocket screws should be just fine. But I would at least add the dowels in the rail and style connections. A hanging door, barn door style, the weight of the door is supported by the top rail and the top of the styles. The bottom rail supports the weight of all the slates that make up the body of the door. Dowels or a floating tenor. Hope that makes sense.

    Thanks, have 1 in the box, been sitting on a shelf for years as there were no instructions with it. Now I know, and looks very handy

    Did you consider a large overhang, before the drain idea? Thanks for the video!

      @RDGham3028 i did consider this. But the location of my shop is just a few feet off my driveway and I worried about delivery trucks, Amazon, mail, etc, hitting it.

    Hi there, watched your video after many mistakes 😅. Definitely did not use your method or in fact the propwr method to stain. So here i am 😂 i stained something darker - I think is was maybe Mahogany but it was faded so I was attempting to make it Ebony. I didnt sand it or anything. I was td it was basically unnecessary - so the stain clearly didnt spread eventually throughout and pooled in some areas, its a bit thicker (like paint) 😮😢😅😳 definitely not my intention. So not thin at all basically nowhere 😊. Do you have any advice for someone like me who has found themselves in this situation? I know its fixable but how far back do i got to go?😂 I want to make sure I don't make this mistake again in the future. 😊 Thank you soooo much for everything. Greatly Appreciate Your Content.

      @PickleNPeanut i would suggest sanding the piece and starting over. You shouldn't have to sand every inch of stain off. Just to the point of fixing. Thanks for you kind words and good luck

    So I took the same steps using the exact same products as you except my color was Mocha. After sanding with 120 and wiping off all dust I followed it with a couple of passes with the vacuum then proceeded with pre-stain wood condition from Minwax. The stain is same brand. 1- I used a staining brush removing the excess like you did. 2- I let it dry 24 hrs and the next day it was sticky. I don’t have AC in garage so I use a large commercial fan. The weather is warm and it has been rainy on and off. I’m wondering if the humidity may have affected it. My question to you is if after several days the stickiness doesn’t go away is there a way to correct the stickiness? I’ve stained plenty of furniture before and this is the first time experiencing this. Btw the unit was made of pine 2x4’s. Thank you for sharing.

      @mpe777 humidity plays a large part in the drying process. Also if you don't spread the finish out evenly or leave too much piled up in spots, the longer it will take to dry. I have hvac running in my shop 24/7. If the humidity is too high you may have to stain twice allowing the first coat to dry and then a second bring it to the shade you want. If, what you have done so far, it doesn't dry fast enough you may have to sand it off and re-apply. You shouldn't have to sand the whole piece, just the sticky sections and then re-apply to those spots and blend them in. If I am doing any piece that requires staining, I do them just like I did in the video. I never wipe. I just apply until I get the shade I want and wipe in the direction of the grain. If the humidity If high where you are, you may have to plan on staining twice. Thin on top of thin. Hope that makes sense
