Just picked up my first table saw, been using my friend's shop for years. These tips were really helpful! Thanks!
I've been messing with wood for 55 years and I always love listening to what Colin has to say. Good job buddy.
That’s what she said
Here is another way to set your miter gauge to exactly 90° without any additional tools. Assuming the front edge of your table saw is 90° from the slots on top, turn your miter gauge upside down and place the miter bar in the slot and let the head of the miter gauge hang off the front of your saw. Loosen the bolt and slide the miter gauge up until the head butts up against the front edge of the saw. Tighten the bolt and you have just set it to exactly 90°. Turn the miter gauge over and place it back in the slot.
This is so simple yet ingenious it's one of those moments for me (which happens so often with woodworking/carpentry and I love it) where you feel stupid for never figuring it out on your own before.
So many things in wood craft take either a more experienced influence, or you do it the dumb inefficient way so many times that one day it clicks that there is a far better way. Again, you have a "shoulda had a V8" moment but they usually make me chuckle, and I'm happy to have figured out a better way
We used to hang it off the saw table in shop class and let gravity straighten it. Assuming your tables level of course
Great tips as usual. I've been making a living with carpentry and woodworking for 42 years and still learn everyday. You forgot to mention to subtract the blade thickness for making the slot gauge for the newbies. Thanks Colin, for the simple straightforward videos.
definition of humility, is to remain teachable. 👍
Learning about woodworking since last october, and read comments like yours, is a light at the dark tunnel. Learn always, everyday, is one of the reasons I started as a hobby
The 45deg trick is awesome! Great video. Thank you Colin!
Love your vids Colin. Really, good useful info without taking 30 + minutes to make your point. Thank you
GREAT tips Colin. For some people they are obvious and for others (like me) they are light bulb moments.
Thanks again.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching.
This video may be several years old, but the tips are timeless! Just yesterday I was struggling with a couple issues you covered and won't be struggling with them ever again. Thanks, Colin. ...Retired guy new to woodworking and new a Subscriber from Oklahoma, USA.
Learning from Colin is like working with my next door neighbor. Always friendly and so informative. My favorite thing is that Colin is never apologizes for admitting that he learned from a previous mistake.
Thank You, Terry!
Love your tips! Just watched a 20 min. video on how to make a jointer sled and you just showed me a 20 second hack to get an edge probably just as straight!
I appreciate your talent for explaining yourself...brief and clear instructions. Not 15 minutes of stammering and repeating ones-self to try and get a point across like some “instructional” videos. Not trying to be hard on those guys, it’s just not their talent....or mine for that matter! Glad I found your channel!
this is the best tips and tricks video I've seen so far! so useful and actually fast and accessible. Don't have to spend a whole day and a bunch of money making different fancy jigs and such. Thanks!
All good, but i especially like the quick slot jig. Really simple and effective. You can't beat that.
A quick and accurate way to square your miter jig is to flip it over, put it in the miter slot upside-down, bring it back towards you, and square it on the edge of the table saw top, or the fence rail, no awkward framing square, no other type of squaring tool.
I've been setting my miter jig like that since my father taught me back in the 60's.
@@pjmazar4533 : well now you know if a quick, easy, and very accurate way.
I’m sure your father would approve.
My jaw literally dropped for several of these. Great hacks that I will definitely use. Thanks!
Great tips & love the workmate idea...Thank you, once again Colin. God bless you & keep 'em coming.
Thanks Glyn ... many more to come.
I've said it before: Colin, you are a woodworking treasure. Thanks for all you do.
You're welcome!!!
I like that piece of scrap as a shelf under the fence. Also that slot jig you made really slick no measuring.
Thanks Joe.
@@knecht105 I have a table saw and i rushed it did not choose the right one. So i am getting a new saw it is called everlution rage 5s table saw it is a job site table saw even has a sliding miter panel with a clamp. costs more but worth it my old saw cost just over £100 pounds. This new one one is Nearly £300 pounds.
Carl - this might be the most helpful 7-minute video I've seen. I just started using a table saw a few weeks ago and I've been trying to find a way to make rip cuts when boards aren't straight on either side. Your screw-down idea is brilliant. Thanks for making this video. I've also subscribed. I really like how you explain everything in a low key, modest way.
Who's Carl? 🤪
Not just Quick, but GREAT Tips Colin.
I'm glad you liked them Peter!
Terrific video, thanks very much. I've just bought my first table saw and as a relative newbie I found your video quite valuable and informative. Thanks for making it!
Great tips as usual. I particularly like the out feed table and slot jig. Thanks.
I very much appreciate you taking the time to make this video! All the best
I don't do a lot of woodworking, but now with your videos I feel empowered to do so, thanks ever so much!
I’ve enjoyed and learned from all of your videos, but this one is particularly awesome! Thank you!
Have a wonderful day!
I'm 51 years old and thanks to you, a source of inspiration, I decided to embark into learning woodwork... better late than never I guess. Ever since I repaired the bottom of my sink myself instead of paying $250.00 for someone else to do it (water rotted the wood) and I been watching your videos, i have decided that I will learn as much as I can. So keep those videos coming.
As usual a joy to watch Colin, thanks for posting .... Garry from UK
FanTASTIC information. Thank you!
Thanks for the great video Colin.
I started wood working last winter out of curiosity due to watching my Grandpa be able to make and fix anything, never having to have fancy tools or digital readers to give him the results he needed. He has since passed before I could pick his brain about this new hobby of mine, but your video just showed/reminded me why my grandpa was the sh*t. Thank you for these tips sir, you have a new subscriber for sure. I look forward to more videos from you.
I'm new to wood working and I really appreciate your help. Thank you for the videos!
Great tips as always! Thank you for sharing!
Colin..i love your simple and practical tips..thanks
Great idea for the outfeed table. I am definitely going to use that!
Great tips Colin! All very useful, clearly explained and great demos...thanks much!!!
Love the workmate outfeed! Thanks for the great tips!
Just really getting started in the hobby. The outfeed table hack just saved me hours. Thank you!
Spot on as usually
Great tips. I'm sure I will use every one of them. Thanks!
Great tips Colin...keep up the good work. I'm always learning things on your channel. .
Colin, you're the man. I learn so much from watching your videos. Carl
I appreciate your slot jig. Great idea for quick grooves.
And the outfeed table - another great idea. I’m currently struggling with this issue. This video was very timely for me. Thank you!
As always Colin, outstanding in helping a two left handed, sometimes, but not always handyman!
Thanks for watching!
This is one of. The best group of woodworkers shop hacks !
Great tips Colin! A speed square (if you have one big enough) is also good for setting up the miter gauge. The lip on one edge let's you lay it flat on the table and still register with the miter slot. It also has 45 built in, so no need to line up numbers. Good for dummies like me who get the scale on the inside and outside of the carpenters square mixed up :) Downside - I generally have to lower the blade whereas the carpenter square goes around it.
Thanks for the tip Matt and thanks for watching!

As usual, simple and effective. Thanks

This is one of my favorite videos of yours the dado gig so helpful. Thank you.
These are genuinely excellent tips. I've run many many boards through different types of saws, and I can't believe I didn't know the trick with the carpenter's square to the other slide!
That tip/hack with the workmate alone made this whole video worth it. Not that the others weren’t good. Thanks.
Love the last two tips. Genius
I love the "non-jig" jointing trick! I needed that yesterday and will need it again tomorrow! I just found some nice plywood offcuts that will work perfectly for that! Thx again!!
And now I'm a new subscriber!!
