Jeremy, my wife and I were talking about you last night and we agreed that we wanted to send you a word of encouragement. If your hiatus is permanent, that's totally cool. We want you to know that we very much appreciate what you already have done and how you have helped many people with your examples and instructions. I know I would be proud if you were our son. We do realize that having a following audience is not an easy thing. Keeping some distance from all of us at times is an important thing to do. We want you to know that we are praying for you and hope that God leads you on a path that is rewarding for you wherever that path takes you.
Such a cool video and great idea. I tried it out, and instead of using the curve, I hot glued a two magnets in. It makes it a bit bulkier, but you don't have to worry about the curve as much. Additionally you can introduce a bit more space for easier access, and don't have to worry about movement thanks the the magnet. Great idea and great video nonetheless.
Almost 20 minutes doing what supposed to be a simple project and, still, is worth it every minute; not to many people can accomplish that. Thanks for sharing !
Enjoyed this project, Jeremy enjoyed watching this all come together thanks for taking the time to share this with us. Play Safe From Elliot Lake Ontario Canada.
I like the idea of the full slot in the bottom because you could use it for a square in a pinch, it might not be perfect 90 degrees but it should be close.
Thanks! That wasn’t the most comfortable cut I’ve ever made, but I wasn’t sure how else to securely hold a weirdly shaped part with a chunk of metal in it.
When I first found you I binged and watched everything in one go.. so I’ve been waiting and hoping you would add more soon. I really hope you can get to a point where you just make videos all day because your channel is absolutely perfect. Keep it up my man 🤙
There’s nothing worse than putting something down that you use a lot when building and you forget where you put it. So that solves the problem and it looks great to.I’d buy that and I think a lot of other people would to. And that line about 6 inches of wood in your pocket priceless
I keep mine in my shirt pocket, to keep it there I glued a magnet to a mini bull dog clip. works a treat for my purposes. Also, I always bend the end up, for ease of picking it up off a flat surface. Nice work!
I carry a small keyring 1.5mtr tape measure on my keys I use it all the time! When I'm in the shop it hangs out of my pocket so I can just pull the tape and measure
I considered that option, but for the stuff I do I needed a more precise instrument. This rule has a mark every 0.01” (0.254mm), and I can easily see if something is halfway between the marks, so I can measure to +/- 0.1mm.
Your struggle in the last year is obviously very personal and nobody else's business but I'd be very interested to hear about it and how you managed to get through it. I think many more people than people realise are really struggling with their mental health. Best of luck pal.
Thanks. I really haven’t “managed to get through it”...yet. I’m seeing a therapist regularly and I’ve moved across the country and made a couple of friends. It’s progress but it’s going to take time to heal. I agree there are a lot of people struggling with mental health issues, we all should be more aware of that.
Oh how I laughed...... and you’re way, way too clever to not know what that line would do!!! And, of course, because this is Jer’s channel I then proceeded to learn a lot of little things that I was always curious as to how those “little things” got done. Like the s curve and how to make a jig that would produce a reasonable looking clip. Please post more, Jer? My little brain needs as many clever ideas as possible......🤯😆
Thank you! I will try to post more, but quality is more important to me than quantity, so I don’t want to rush the designs just to get a video out sooner.
How are you doing there Sir? I saw a post about a belt sander, thought of yours, thought of you and then checked the channel. Hope you are doping OK. Best Wishes, Jim
Hi Jeremy, I hope you are ok mate and we will see you again sometime on youtube. You are one of the top engineering minds on youtube and you have so much to offer. I truly hope you are keeping well my friend. 🙂
@@Jer_Schmidt Hi Jeremy, it's so good to hear from you man. I was worried about you so much. I had a breakdown 10 years ago and have suffered from depression really bad so I know how debilitating it can be. Thanks for your reply and whether or not you return to youtube, it's great just to hear from you and to know you are feeling better. You will be in my thoughts and prayers Jeremy.🙂🙂
It’s homemade, I followed the plans from Matthias Wandel. Look him up on RUclips. It’s his 16” version. I made mine basically identical to his, so no need for me to make a video about it...
Actually that was just a ton of CAD work; so you saw the first physical one I made! But seriously, I built that thing dozens, maybe into the hundreds of times in CAD.
Oh man, I made a few of these in shop class last year, they are really nice, if you have a ruler then you should make one! I also used a router to make the grove, for a pcb ruler, im now wanting a nice, nice ruler like that...
The design process over several years of trying and failing to get to the finished piece tells you a lot about the cost of buying a quality item such as this from a store.
I am working on a video right now, it should be up in a couple weeks. But then I don’t know whether there will ever be another one... I’ll just have to see if I ever have a project to film again.
Great work. Really good. Which Kind of Metal did you used for the Clip? I‘m looking for something just like this to make a spring. Metal, that you can form but which isn‘t moving back in its Start Position when its pushed together. Greetings from Germany. :)
I actually damaged this one shortly after the video (bent the clip) and I went back to using the previous one, which I had already carried for some time before the video. It’s holding up great.
i'm hoping you build that shipping container workshop you talked about on twitter. that way we could get new videos even though you moved from here to there
This is great, I too carry a precision rule but not in such beautiful fashion. Really good bro. My new favourite channel. I love Alec Steel but there is way too much faffing around for my liking, he seems to get caught up in the whole fame and fortune thing where as you keep true to your art. Well done
If you don’t mind me asking, what do you have against Tesla? It’s an honest question, I’m just trying to understand why people are prejudiced against the most loved car brand.
I’ve gone through a really tough time leaving the restrictive & controlling religious group I grew up in, but I’ve moved across the country and my mental health is in a lot better place now. Hopefully I can start making videos again soon...
@@Jer_Schmidt Your videos and projects are brilliant, and in my experience those with these kinds of life experiences are far more driven and accomplished individuals in life. I won't pretend to know the totality of your circumstances, but as someone who dealt with something similar I can tell you that it gets better. Hang in there.
That debris clearing slot that's cleared by the ruler itself It's one of those moments when you lean back in your chair and say, "Dang, this guy is _good_ ."
I was eating dinner when my phone went off. I'm not allowed a phone a dinner time but my wife said it's from Jeremy. I dropped my knife and fork and cast the vid to my tv. As usual, the vid is superb. Thanks for all your hard work.
Thanks! Ok, you’re not the first to suggest 3D printing, so I’m gonna try to make a CAD model. I don’t have a 3D printer, but I’m assuming you just need a solid 3D component in DXF or STL for your slicing program to convert to G-code?
This feels like a "please take my money" moment. But seriously I'd buy one of these in a heartbeat if you sold them. Convenient ways to keep rules, combination squares, calipers and marking tools at hand are in short supply and are game changers.
I’ve always enjoyed your videos, and reading through your recent comments on your channel and elsewhere… I realize you’ve been having a tough time and struggling. And rightfully so. This world is a shit hole, and although I don’t know you personally, or understand exactly how your mind works… after spending a few years watching your videos... I get a general idea. I am similar in many ways… work ethic, areas of interest, and the methods of which I approach my work and life. So I feel I understand you’re struggling, only if even a little bit. Life can be a real struggle, especially for someone with an analytical mind. And feelings of distress are justified in this shit hole of a world. Personally, Nothing would make me happier than to not wake up tomorrow… Or to have never been here in the first place. I felt like that most of my life, But much more so in the past few years. Therefore, my ideas are the farthest thing from “healthy”. But that never stopped me from Sharing my observations. If you can reconcile your quality of life, and emotional distress… with all the positive things you have to offer the world and others… you may find that life has tangible value “on paper“… And not only in the emotional/complicated world that most “normal” folks live in. But even in a proven and justifiable view. Sorry for the rambling BS comment… I don’t mean to waste your time. I guess in summary… Life is always harder for someone with a particular type of brain function. Analytical thinking inevitably leads to pain and suffering. Which is a problem for those born with that disability. And although myself and many others hope to escape from it sooner than later… some are smart enough to figure out a better way. I hope you are one of those folks, and I hope you find some peace. Life sucks, so spend your time doing what “ makes you happy”… If there is such a thing. Hopefully getting through life while hurting as few people as possible. And by some miracle… Maybe bring happiness to some.... or maybe simply decrease others suffering. Good luck to you no matter where you end up.
Jeremy what a great watch. You make very entertaining videos. To see you progress through all your attempts was very inspirational. What a great piece you have made. All the thought gone into something seemingly so simple has made a great product. You are going places for sure.
Please do make the PDF plans! Also, I really appreciate how you show all your prototypes AND how you recover from any mistakes you've made. Thank you for another great video!
isn’t it uncomfortable to have 6” of wood in your pants......never had any complaints.....hahahahaha but seriously i also “wear a precision ruler with me and this is one hell of a cool idea..
I have one it's in Several of my Videos and it's Rounded on one end so you could just round one end to go in the bottom of your pocket, that way not to make a hole or poke you so easily, However it's A NICE Case!
“Doesn’t hurt to go with food grade just in case” How did you know I had to make a pb&j with my pocket ruler!? I was hungry, okay! I didn’t have anything else in the car and it worked! Even cut the sammich pretty nicely. Don’t judge me… hahahah
Jeremy, where are you? We miss you and still waiting for new videos. Please, make a short "hello! I'm fine!" video for us, at least, we'll know you're good there.
Jeremy has done a multitude of amazing things on this channel, but delivering the line "Isn't it uncomfortable to have six inches of wood in your pants?" with a straight face is by far the most impressive... 👏👏👏🤣
Yeah, probably the most challenging thing I’ve done here. ;-) I made more attempts at that line than I did at the rule sheath.
I almost spit my coffee out when he said that. It was a great laugh.
@@boblablah I'm 42, and that line with the straight face cracked me up!
Good one.

Excellent video. I love the attention to detail and the fact that you showed your mistakes.

Six inches of wood in your pants...I laughed a little too hard at that. Great video, as always.
I have no idea how he maintained a straight face saying this
@@__adj I cant even keep a straight face replying about it...
i died laughing hahaha
I find the full range of motion is reduced slightly, but my girlfriend doesn't complain. 😶

Great to see the process and mistakes and mixes. More entertaining and I think more educational as well.
Thanks. I could have made the video a lot shorter by leaving that out, so I’m hoping it’s worth it to you.
@@Jer_Schmidt Very much so.
I’m so glad to have you back. Please keep the videos coming.

I like the idea of the full slot in the bottom because you could use it for a square in a pinch, it might not be perfect 90 degrees but it should be close.
Someone else just suggested making a brass insert so it would be a precise square. I love the idea.
A hand crafted multi-tool except for the rule of course. I love as well.
Very cool. Love the design process and final result!
Did not love how close your fingers were to the table saw blade at 17:15!
Thanks! That wasn’t the most comfortable cut I’ve ever made, but I wasn’t sure how else to securely hold a weirdly shaped part with a chunk of metal in it.

Very nicely done Jeremy! And as other have noted, I LMAO at the wood in the pants remark!!
You have done a TON of experimentation on something I didn't even know I needed...until now. ;)
I would think that you could use the slot at the bottom to make the sheath into a square.
I keep mine in my shirt pocket, to keep it there I glued a magnet to a mini bull dog clip. works a treat for my purposes. Also, I always bend the end up, for ease of picking it up off a flat surface. Nice work!

I’m working on a video right now. Expect it to be up around the end of this month.
@@Jer_Schmidt WOOOHOOO!!! 🤓
Jeremy, love your videos but to long in between them lol. hard to wait for the next one. can you put out more often? please
Great work. Really good. Which Kind of Metal did you used for the Clip? I‘m looking for something just like this to make a spring. Metal, that you can form but which isn‘t moving back in its Start Position when its pushed together.
Greetings from Germany. :)
6AL4V titanium. 0.032” thick. It’s the best material if found for clips.
This is a beautiful little object. But I think it's too well made to be a potential product.
great job as per usual. Can't wait til the next cool thing. What do you think it will be?
I am genuinely curious how this project has held up.
I actually damaged this one shortly after the video (bent the clip) and I went back to using the previous one, which I had already carried for some time before the video. It’s holding up great.
How about a miter gauge for a table saw to match the rip fence I built from your plans.
I don’t find miter gauges to be useful. A couple of good sleds handle 99% of the same tasks and do normal cross cuts much more safely and accurately.
i'm hoping you build that shipping container workshop you talked about on twitter. that way we could get new videos even though you moved from here to there
Check out Woby Design's channel, he's got an amazing container workshop, incredible what he's fitted in it!
Hope you are doing well Jeremy!
This video is sooooo good.
Where did you get the cool, black, utility knife with the JS on it? @17:49
That’s the Maker Knife, made by Giaco Whatever. You can order from makerknife.com. I know Giaco personally so he put the JS on there for me ;-)
@@Jer_Schmidt cool. Thanks!
Is that a 6" wood sheath in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
Would a magnet imbedded into the sheath hold the ruler just as well as a curve?
It might, but it would also attract metal shavings and magnetize the ruler. Not worth it.
Brilliant!
"if I'm gonna carry it for years I want it to look good", He's NOT talking about the haircut
I would pay for one. Do you ever sell them?

You can try, but it probably won’t help. I might make a new video soon-ish, but no promises.
If you want to bend a tighter radius in titanium, just heat it with a torch first. You'll have to clean off the oxidation, but it works like a charm.

Jeremy, you are awesome.
Too funny reading comments :)) Glad to see you back Jer.
I have one it's in Several of my Videos and it's Rounded on one end so you could just round one end to go in the bottom of your pocket, that way not to make a hole or poke you so easily, However it's A NICE Case!
You can try to aply finish on the inside before glueing . It can make it easier to put in the ruler and make sure the glue won't stick. From France
Good idea

How did you know I had to make a pb&j with my pocket ruler!? I was hungry, okay! I didn’t have anything else in the car and it worked! Even cut the sammich pretty nicely. Don’t judge me… hahahah
Jeremy, where are you? We miss you and still waiting for new videos. Please, make a short "hello! I'm fine!" video for us, at least, we'll know you're good there.
