Просмотров 2472 года назад
Today, Damien shows off his new S CLC, the super cookie leveling contraption. His old design only allowed him to do only one cookie or small slab at a time; whereas the new design allows him to do up to 30 cookies and large slabs. It also includes a built-in vice system to make securing the wood even easier. Links to his other social media and shop - www.visionlessdesigns.com www.etsy.com/uk/sh...

    Great review of a very good tool. My Workmate 300 has been a useful tool for me for 46 years (I’m 71 yo) and still is in great working order. Even the latching mechanisms are still tight. Only deficiency is one of the feet on the fold out leg broke and won’t stay attached. I use and abuse this tool!

    Can a festool dust extractor work with this if I have a dust port adapter

    • @VisionlessDesigns
      @VisionlessDesigns 3 месяца назад

      I wouldn't think so. The powermatic sander requires a 100mm dust hose attaching to it and an extractor that has a 100mm port or greater that is rated for fine dust. I'm not aware of any Festool dust extractors that have 100mm ports and going from a smaller hose to a larger hose will not provide enough airflow to catch all the dust. And this thing produces a lot of dust.

    Looks like an excellent upgrade. I'd really like to do something like this on my own workmate plus but the problem I have currently is the only storage place is up on a wall and even at stock weight it's pretty tricky to put it up and down. I made a separate worktop that clamps into the workmate jaws to extend it's working surface. This works well for some projects but of course I lose the function of the workmate vice and I have to store the extra worktop separately.

  • @paulvanhouts3365
    @paulvanhouts3365 6 месяцев назад

    I had a couple of old workmates where the original tops failed. I modified them to just foldable work surfaces with 19mm plywood and one I welded a metal top so it became my portable welding table. I made a heavy steel horse with my vice at one end and a pipe vice at the other, yes I don’t have the variety of bench dog clamping abilities but in what I’d I don’t need it. I do like what you have done with your top.

      Some people do, but then you are heavily relying on there being a good seal in the gully as that is where all the water will be pooling up and running down. It would also add something for leaf debris to start building up on and possibly block the gully. My granddad has this problem with his roof.
