- Woodworking Pros and Journeymen Carpenters always have a bag full of little tricks they use for more accurate and quicker builds, which they will seldom volunteer because they use them so often, they forget they even use them ... like a more accurate miter saw cuts, unconventional woodworking techniques for better finishing results, unscrambling table leg positions and thinking ahead to what best topcoat finish to apply for less distracting wood joinery issues.

You are very generous. Finding someone who is ready to give to community and comes to RUclips with this mindset is really rare today.
I've been into wood working for 30+ years and I have honestly learned so much helpful stuff from you that has really changed my love and skills to make me a much better carpenter
I’ve been watching for years now and Colin always says “thanks for watching.” He recognizes that when we watch we are giving him the gift of our time. In return we get the gift of his very valuable experience. The border between Canada and the US (or any other country) quickly dissolves in a time like this. And...what a nice offer to Zoom with a group for free. That’s one of many reasons these videos are so delightful. Pure knowledge shared with pure intent.
Tip from my father decades ago: “Know where your fingers are at all times.” Best I ever heard. I still can count to ten on my fingers! LOL!
I’m a beginner woodworker at the age of 65. I’ve learned so much from you. Thank you.
Hello Kathy, how are you doing today!??
Thankyou for giving back to the wood working community with your videos and especially your free virtual meetings. It's SO important that we share our knowledge and pass it down to our younger generation! Bless you!
I’ve been woodworking for 30 yrs and I still learn new things .. thanks Colin! 👍
Not that I did't believe you, but I just had to pause the video and go write on my shop table with a pencil and test your alcohol trick. That was so awesome. Thanks Colin.
Hi Colin. I'm a hobby woodworker, at best, but appreciate the versatility of wood, a renewable resource, and the satisfaction of solving problems associated with the woodworking process, not to mention the finished product. I have viewed a number of your videos posted of the last 5 to 10 years and appreciate your genuine content. I also want to commend you for your willingness to further contribute to the world of woodworking. Well done and thank you!
Colin you are such a beautiful giving soul who is making a real difference in this world. I salute you.
He's definitely the grandfather I never had.
Damn right we need way more people like this...
Love Colin's tips.
The mountain he describes I've always known as the carpenter's triangle. It would also work on the legs.
Yup, he's a sweet heart.

He's one of the best - practical, straightforward and easy to follow. There's no cheesy music, which forces me to turn the sound off and the subtitles on and he's safety conscious too, without being overboard about it.
I believe I speak for many novices like myself when I say THANK YOU!!! Your sharing your vast and extensive knowledge with us wannabe's in a way that actually helps us understand, you're a very kind man. God Bless you, brother... Sincerely, Nitram
Awesome! This Man is a wealth of knowledge, and presented in a professional and no nonsense manner. This is what RUclips is all about, or should be. Keep ‘me coming, Colin!
Thanks!
Stay safe and Heathy! 👍😁🇺🇸
I recently discovered this channel when i am looking for something else and i am watching a few videos everyday. I am not even woodworker but his knowledge and big positive smile made me into the woodworking. I wish one day i can set up a place to try all of things he thought. Thanks for all the time and effort to make these videos. 🙏😊
Colin, That was one of the best and simplest group of hints. Please do more.
I love the way you teach and laugh... You are such a beautiful soul and of course an expert in your field
You had me at “Free”
Good on you Collin! God bless!
Thank you Colin 💕
Wonderful gesture.
I just want you to know I enjoy your tips Iam a old plumber retired and started doing wood work within the past 4 years and you are very helpful thank you for your time
I’m a beginner woodworker ( at 65 yo) and I’ve learned so much from you. Thank you.
Another great one Colin. Thank you.
I am pretty new to this woodworking thing even though I'm a bit on the older side but I just love this guy so much. Not only am I learning so much about woodworking there is something about his voice and his demeanor that is so incredibly calming. I hesitate saying what I'm about to say because I don't want anyone to take it the wrong way. But when I am trying to go to sleep at night and I just can't for whatever reason I feel like I could turn on one of his videos and listen to his voice and it would just calm me down and put me right to sleep! THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT I THINK HE IS BORING. Quite the opposite. I really don't know any other way to explain it.
I used your marking system recently when I made a Jay Bates workbench. It worked great to maintain the position and orientation of the legs . I will be using it from now on. Thanks Colin
Simple and easy tips. Very well done!!
Thank you for your help, these videos have saved me so much time and frustration
Good stuff, Colin, as usual!
Thanks Colin
Thank you Colin. You have such a wonderful presentation and great attitude towards the beginner, intermeddite, and advanced wood worker. Always helpful.
That last tip for the legs is great! I will definitely start using it. Thank you very much
Thanks again for sharing, Colin.
Nice tips!
One reason I became a professional woodworker some 40 years ago was that I met so many good professional woodworkers and they were always happy to share their knowledge. Before that I was trying to be a photographer but other photographers I met would never share their techniques with me. I guess woodworkers are more down to earth and less insecure, a nice community to be part of.
You make me smile, Colin.
My father was a woodworker and carpenter in the '60s and '70s. Recently I was reassembling an old table he had and I noticed on the bottom by the legs that he used hash marks I II III and IIII to ensure proper orientation and placement.
I remarked to him about that and how it made it so much easier, and he responded " your grandpa taught me that "
Yeah both of my grandfather's wore more hats than I can wrap my brain around. My mom's dad, 1 of the 2 I actually met, was in a county playhouse, used to deliver cubic foot ice blocks for people's pre-electric refrigerators up fire escapes, used to shovel coal into the house to burn for heat, was in the air force (trained as a paratrooper, served as a mechanic) in WWII (him and his brothers all volunteered), was a loving father to 6 kids, made them all go to school, sang for the Pope (JPII) while on his choir's grand European tour and for over 50 years worked for a company making prosthetics for amputees until he retired at 82... Not long from when he died. They don't make em like him any more. That man is my hero.
JJ my great grandpa used deliver ice blocks too. And milk. And he made skiis. 👍
my grandfather was a tool and die maker for the bud co, in philly( ford parts) ,he showed me clock positions, which is the same idea, like if part is in front of you , you can know which direction and where to place the part, there can be many clocks , but it does help, if i don't do that, i wind up scratching my head for hours, trying to remember why i cut this that length, if i have to stop , and pick back up again, grand fathers are awesome
@@chrisnorton2837 You know, I added central air to my house a few years ago and when researching how many TONs it should deliver, I found out that the industry still uses the term as an equivalent to the tons of ice a family would require to get through the spring and into winter.
Brilliant! Thank you, Colin.
I love the table leg markings so simple. And as you imply, foolproof.
What a lovely man you are. I wish I knew someone like you in the UK. I learn a lot of tips from watching your videos apart from what you are actually teaching x
Another outstanding video. Simple tips that help reduce frustration. Thanks.
Awesome tips! Thank you!
Thanks very much for these tips! The tip for marking leg orientation is just what I needed to see at this time for a coffee table base I am building. As in all the videos from you I’ve seen, I appreciate your knowledge and clear explanations. You are a great teacher!
You are absolutely awesome. I’m a lockdown newbie woodworker living in a London flat (my shed!) and I’ve learned so much from you. Thank you 😊
Colin, such simple points but can make a big difference and easier. Thank you.
Another great learning experience from one of the best wood working teachers on You Tube. Thank you Sir.
simple, but soooooo clever and useful...thank you sir!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think the 1 2 3 4 with the the lines for the legs simple but so useful. Brilliant tip thanks Colin.
Never thought of marking the legs with lines, it is the best tip I have received. Thankyou.
So appreciate your gifts to us.
Thanks a lot for the tips, Colin! 😊
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Great tips. Thanks, Colin!
Brilliant! Thanks mate, subscribed.
Great Tips Colin as usual, thanks for sharing
Mr Colin thank you sir
Thank you
Thanks for the knowledge, Colin !!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s very generous of you sir!
Thank You Sooooo Very Much For All That You Do For The Woodworking Community And No Doubt Everything Else You Do.
Those are all very good tips, Colin! I always mark the waste side of the line with an X, but that just works for me. Also, when I am working on multiple pieces that have to go back in the same order, I mark them with 1 triangle drawn over them, with the base line from side to side and the side lines from the edge of the base line to the top middle, wether I'm working on two pieces, or more. And when I have tops and bottoms, or even left and right groups, I'll draw a second line underneath the base line, or along the side, left or right, depending on where they should go. Very helpful video, thank you! And I also think it is really nice of you to offer your presence and knowledge through video calling! You're the best
Thank you very much.
Very great tips thanks!!
These are the best tips I have ever seen put together. I am an experienced wood worker and even I found value in each and every one of these tips. Well done Sir!
Great tips again. Thanks for sharing. I really like the light-dark wood combination to hide gaps.
Im new to the whole wood working thing and i'm glad that i stumbled upon the video's of colin, thanks for all of the tips that i've already implemented! Love your work and love your video's. Hope we can enjoy them for many years to come. Stay good, stay healthy, god bless!
Just found this channel and love it, its different, host is sweet and warm person and so knowlegeable. Enjoy watching. Thank you Sir!
LOVE the 1234 technique. As always, thanks Colin
Great tips!
Thanks Colin, great tips!!
Great tips as always, never to old to learn! Thanks again and stay Safe and cheers from MT
Really liked how you marked the tops of the legs there....neat !
Another good vid, Colin.
There is a bit of an Architect's mantra that's relevant to joints or any detail in a design :- "If it looks 'orrible, make a feature of it."
It goes on :- "If it still kooks 'orrible, paint it white and if it still looks 'orrible, box it in and paint it white." 😎👍
Really enjoy the videos
Genius method of marking legs! Thanks.
Thankyou so much Colin, the number of times I've messed up my leg orientations in the past, never again though. Peace and love, Bob
Colin you are a true gentlemen.
Hat's off for your love on woodworking...
Voice of experience! Thanks!
thanks colin!
Top Bloke! Really enjoyed the video, much appreciated.
As always, great info. 1,2,3,4 seems so easy but the lines tip is a lot like the "mountain" tip for jointing. Thank you.
