I am new to woodworking. Thank you for producing such an informative interesting and accurate video's. I have been watching hundreds of woodworking video's over the last few months (I have kind of been obsessing.) and the safety rule violations I see are cringeworthy. I believe anyone using a table saw without a riveting knife or blade guard shouldn't be making videos. The thing is, my wife has put her foot down about me buying a table saw. I am talking escalation like threatening divorce level. The question I have is the following. If I make her a promise to NEVER EVER remove the riveting knife or blade guard, just how badly am I limiting myself? That is, I have heard some kinds of cuts require removing the blade guard. Is there a way to make that absolutely never required? I have plenty of money, so getting a saw stop and special push blocks, fancy special blade guards etc. isn't an issue. The real problem is being able to satisfy my lady that I won't go out in the garage and come back with one or both arms amputated to the elbow. I am an engineer by trade so a hand injury could very well end my ability to work.
@@edreusser4741 - A SawStop table saw literally can not cut your fingers off. That eliminates 95% of the danger of a table saw. The only other danger that remains is a freak accident like a strong kickback that strikes you and breaks a bone. But a riving knife all but eliminates that danger as well. In my opinion, a SawStop table saw is one of the safest tools in the shop. If she need convincing, take her to a woodworking show (when they happen again) and let her watch a demo. Seeing it in person usually is a game changer :) (I am not sponsored or paid by SawStop)
@@edreusser4741 The SawStop is the table saw for you. Woodworking without 100% of all after guards in place is something that I have seen in many many shops. Please do not simply disregard someones video for (what may seem to be) lack of safety. Guards are often removed for video only so that it's easier for the viewer to see the process. Other times, the operator may have sufficient experience with an operation and feel them unnecessary. This often comes with time and a great deal of respect for the capability of the tool In use. But beyond simply watching a video for safety flaws, many of these woodworkers have an incredible wealth of knowledge they are willing to pass along to others. They have taken the time to demonstrate and educate and do so at their own cost, both fiscally and physically. Watch with an open mind and take only the positive you need from their offerings to improve your own work and techniques. Enjoy your new tools and the projects you create with them.
James, I found your channel about a year ago and it has become my favorite, Go-To channel for useful information. I am a 64 year old physician who learned woodworking as a kid from my father, who learned it from his grandfather, who was a cabinet maker in the late 1800's to early 1900's. I took a long hiatus from woodworking to become an eye surgeon, but I am now re-creating a dream shop in my garage in preparation for quasi-retirement. I shared that bit of history to legitimize my next comments. My father had a bit of a tremor, I have a sister with Parkinson's Disease and two of my 5 children have benign essential tremor. I have been blessed with rock solid hands, but that is simply by God's grace. I have noticed your tremor and went back to review your prior open book video about it. Kudos for sharing that video and the video of your recent injury. This type of honesty carries with it a strong bond to your viewers and puts you in rarefied air in comparison to most "instructors". I would like to comment on the suggestion from one of your viewers who indicated propranolol can be helpful in your situation. I would agree whole-heartedly. It is fairly benign, but should only be used with the clearance from a good physician who would check for any other systemic contraindications. While you are obviously a skilled woodworker, there are some tasks which would be a bit easier without the tremor. Not an unreasonable consideration for you. It would also keep know-it-alls from making stupid comments as if they did not have any liabilities of their own. We all do.
Well said, thank you sir. I too have tremors in my hands. The only time they seem to fade is when this old Army Sniper/woodworker is holding a rifle or paring chisel. I was wondering if this is common with tremors, for them to almost fade when muscle memory kicks in for certain tasks?
These are by far some of my favorite videos on RUclips. Thanks to you I ordered the Igaging Bench squares. I can't wait to get them. I am like a little kid on Christmas eve. I did use your link, so you get the credit, and I will continue to do so for some of the other cool tools. Thanks!
I've been using 1-2-3 blocks for woodworking tool setup---particularly squaring my jointer fence---and some holding tasks for years. I'm glad I'm not the only one that recognizes how useful they are.
I bought some 1 2 3 blocks and they are the handiest things. I do a lot of small boxes and these things are great for getting everything square. I used them on a small boat model the other day to align the ribs. Great stuff.
It's two days after Christmas and at least two of the links show "Currently Unavailable". As another commenter noted, your video got a lot of attention and several companies sold out based on your recommendations. Way to go! Now I have to check back when supplies are once again on the shelf.
I don't think I've clicked on a single affiliate link in my years of hearing people reference them, sometimes I feel out of spite because it's usually annoying and fake how it's presented. You, however, are one of the few people making content that I feel are genuine, knowledgeable, real, etc. So no matter what I buy on Amazon I'll come through your links ;). Cheers man love the videos (If that isn't obvious) -Steve
As a collector of tools impressed when the old Stanley Square was tested. Never thought it would be inaccurate. First thing in the morning I'm doing the test!
James- Just a quick tip o’ the Stetson for this informative vid on cool tools. I’m just putting the finishing touches on my own dream shop and your two most recent videos have really resonated with me. So much so, that I’m now in possession of all 3 straight edges, the Dura-Grit kit, additional 1-2-3’s with and without holes, the iGaging Squares (combo & double) and two new Hedgehogs (all via the links!). Please keep up the amazing work, the earnest dedication and the rapid healing! Happiest of holidays and sincere congrats on the new storefront digs!
I have both sets of chisels, the sweethearts for display and the Baileys for daily use. No carpenter I know carries a wooden mallet... Great Christmas present for your apprentice. My 2019 favorites: the Empire 4" red speed square, the horizontal stud finder, the True Precision brand door pull drill jig with a case, Milwaukee 12V mini metal band saw, Red Tree brand small black canvas trim nail apron, and I finally bought a 10 oz.. Stiletto trim hammer.
DURAGRIT ROCKS! Been using them for a year and can't say enough..they are like Everlasting Gobstoppers for woodworking! Get the woodworker's combo and you will be set for years.
Hope your hand is healing well. Just got a 1-2-3 block set to try out. Will probably get the featherboard, too. Thanks! I appreciate your recommendations.
Thanks for some good suggestions. Also, I'm not a Redwings fan at all but I gotta give you a tilt of the hat for incorporating the greatest sport on Earth into your video.
That square is nice but Starrett is hard to beat. As a young machinist I bought cheap tools at first then I replaced them with Mitutoyo stuff, then as a journeyman tool and die maker I went and spent the money on Starrett. Very nice tools indeed. Now as a garage maker i can spot nice tools that aren't necessarily all that expensive. Thank you for your review.
Hi, again, Mr. Nubbs, Based on your recommendation I bought 2 Dura Grip Sanding Blocks, and now I’m ordering 2 more. I was amazed at how often I reached for them-exactly as you described. My shop is starting to look like a Stumpy Nubbs commercial. So far, everything you’ve recommended has equaled or exceeded your analyses. THANKS...and keep on making those COOL TOOL videos!
Thanks for all of these links to the tools, and the review of the alternative to Starrett squares. I almost always learn something from you cool tools videos.
I work in metalworking and metrology. I want to caution you about the way you are using the 123 blocks. 123 blocks are going to be flat, parallel, and perpendicular within small tolerances. But they are not guaranteed in size to be 1.0000 x 2.0000 x 3.0000. The size could be larger or small by up to .005 typically. For exact sizes, look up Gauge Blocks (also called Jo Blocks). Although you wouldn't use them for the applications you're using. Also look up paired 123 blocks, which is a set of 2 or 3 blocks that will be the same size within a small tolerances. You can use them to set up larger surfaces across multiple blocks and know you're getting good parallelism.
also - im very glad you gave the iGauging squares a bit of screen time! i stumbled upon their stuff a while back and bottom line is they are just fine and are very fairly priced

As always, thanks for being such a reliable source for great information that one just can't find anywhere else. You truly are appreciated for effort you put in for out benefit. Cheers my friend!!!
Would have to agree on the 1-2-3 blocks. I use them for everything in wood model building- clamping squares, weights, alignment blocks, equipment calibration. Wish I had 20 of them.
I bought the 1-2-3 blocks and sanding blocks after watching this video. I already own the aluminum straight edges and can attest to their high quality.
A sweet! Right off the bat you tell me what these blocks my friend found are. He found two in the street and I walked by them for months always thinking, man, I could use those for something. Just brought them in the other day and was amazed that they "just happened to be" perfect helpers for a project I was in the middle of. These are 1½x2x3 but for my purposes that's even better
Just got my Igaging double squares and found them a bit rougher as you said. One thing I noticed was a bit of looseness in the ruler when I tightened the knob. A hint, if you do not hold the ruler when tightening the nut it will tighten without the slop. Like them and they have shown themselves to be square when doing the knife test. Thanks for the recommendation they will be on my bench as regular members of the crew.
Good info. 1st one I seen of yours. Starrett, Fowler, Mitutoyo are some of the very well known names in any machine shop industry. Very high Precision quality tools and very long lasting if taken care of properly. Have you looked into double faced hammers/mallets? Wood hammers seem pretty common but double faced hammers have replaceable tips on the head. Some may be too light for certain wood working but others should have plenty head weight for heavier hits. They are very commonly used in a machine shop. Hard plastic tips can harm your wood handles.
Lots of youtube demonstrations show a user looking over a setup block set to see if the blade/bit is set right. I have found that I can use a bar on top of the stack to get the height just right by feel. I just swing the bar over the blade/bit and adjust until it just touches. Works with 1 2 3 blocks as well. Adjusting by sight doesn't work as well for me. Thanks for the good video.

All are very cool tools. I can assure any skeptics that IGaging is the real deal! Very nice and worth every penny!
Great job man! Always enjoy your videos. Watching this with a mug O' coffee and leftover Christmas cookies. Nothing better. Thanks.
I’ve just started watching these episode of cool tools. Most excellent!
Hope the hand is healing good. It takes time. Love the Sweetheart Chisel Set.
It was good to see the list of tools again in one spot
Thank you for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for sharing, I hadn't seen some of these before. I hope that you are healing well.
Hope you are getting better!
Thanks!
Wishing The Best!
Awesome bunch of tools! I am always looking to improve what I do and some of these will definitely wind up in my shop.
Thanks, James for another fascinating and informative video!
I've been using 1-2-3 blocks for woodworking tool setup---particularly squaring my jointer fence---and some holding tasks for years. I'm glad I'm not the only one that recognizes how useful they are.
I've had 1-2-3 blocks for years, they're a great shop addition. A great thing to go with them is a cheap small granite surface plate.
Pair these with a jeweled machinist indicator like a starrett last word and you can check your cuts for squareness, too.
I've added a pair of 2-3-4 blocks as well and it increases the capabilities.
Great advice and resources, thank you!😀👏👍
Thanks for the re-show - Got me some new squares. Get well soon!
Thank u. Appreciate your time
thx especially for the 1-2-3 block segment! A very useful video as a whole.
You're so professional, thorough, and you enunciate very well, thanks for all the effort you put into these videos!
Excellent video content!! Thank you!!
Thanks for this video, really some cool tools with good information provided.
Enjoyed this immensely.
Lots of food for thought. Thanks!
This is great info. Thank You.
Ordered and received the DuraGrit putting it to work tomorrow! Thanks for the discount and hopefully a new supplier.
Really cool info; gonna have to get me a set of 1-2-3's!
I bought some 1 2 3 blocks and they are the handiest things. I do a lot of small boxes and these things are great for getting everything square. I used them on a small boat model the other day to align the ribs. Great stuff.
Love 123 blocks great product. Keep up the good work James.
Thanks for the tool tips.
I ordered my Dura Grit sanding block today. Thanks for the discount. We'll see how it goes. Enjoy your videos.
Carpenter for 40 yrs. Still learning tips and tricks in wood working. thanks

My shop is starting to look like a Stumpy Nubbs commercial. So far, everything you’ve recommended has equaled or exceeded your analyses.
THANKS...and keep on making those COOL TOOL videos!
Clamping - I use my several Jawhorse Clamps more than just about any others.
great video thank you
Appreciate the heads up on Igaging squares; refreshing to know that I don't know it all. Also, praying that your hand is doing well. :)
Thanks for all of these links to the tools, and the review of the alternative to Starrett squares.
I almost always learn something from you cool tools videos.
I have bought the Trend Stealth Mask here in Australia, and thank you for the review!

also - im very glad you gave the iGauging squares a bit of screen time! i stumbled upon their stuff a while back and bottom line is they are just fine and are very fairly priced
Man I wish I had the time to fully appreciate these videos.
I did a search at The Craftsman Gallery for iGaging to view all of their tools and WOW! There are so many clever and useful measuring tools from them ... I went crazy putting together my Xmas want list.
One that really got me excited was their "35-580" Digital Plane-Check Gauge. What a clever timesaver this is going to be!!
As always, thanks for being such a reliable source for great information that one just can't find anywhere else. You truly are appreciated for effort you put in for out benefit. Cheers my friend!!!

I bought the wp 1 time tool set up blocks.
At first being the hack I am I kept forgetting I even have them.
Now I find all kinds of ways to use them.
Great idea on the 1 2 3 blocks for setting up a table saw fence. Never thought of that. Just found your channel and subscribed.
Well done.
I love my hedgehog featherboard. I'll have to check out the other stuff you list.
Thanks...always find your videos very informative! Hope your hand is on it's way back...
I bought the 1-2-3 blocks and sanding blocks after watching this video.
I already own the aluminum straight edges and can attest to their high quality.
Good afternoon! Love the features. My wife hates you - Keep up the good wprk.
I think I'm getting ISO tunes extra for xmas thanks to you!
Love the 25-50-75 blocks ;D
1-2-3 still applies to metric as a ratio. 25 is 1, 50 is 2 (twice the 25), 75 is 3 (three times the 25)
Got some Duragrit stuff coming thanks for that discount code
Just subscribed! Why not before? I don’t know. I always learn interesting things from you and I like your approach. Very good stuff!
Hi new sub from Sheffield England good to see the steel is still the best
I’m forwarding this list to Santa! 🎅🏻
I like the Hedge Hog Feather Board.
Well Done!
Finger's looking good.

@@jason4547 "perceived perception" = LMAO
Well worth watching twice, or thrice!
I use the 3 2 1 blocks for miter corner glue ups - my set has one massive hole where one clamp goes to each 45 degree hold - perfectly square.
Nice hair. Nice hats!
