Not related to this video, but I watched your video and bought your plans for the small spiral Christmas tree and spent last Saturday helping my 10 year old grandson build it for his mom. What a great day it was in my shop sharing quality time with my grandson and building memories that will last his lifetime. He decided to show his mom the tree in the flat version first, which she loved, then when he got it home he revealed the spiral which blew her mind. All of this for just the cost of one 2x4 and a dowel. Total cost of under $7. Thank you for the inspiration.
This is the kind of stuff I love. Getting the kids in the shop and spending quality time with them is priceless and something hopefully they will cherish forever. Keep it up. And thank you for the support.
Matthew I just want to thank you for not being a overreactive DUCHE BAG HYPE GUY that seems to be the trend on RUclips nowadays.. I can clearly tell you actually do care about people and your followers and peoples success and that is awesome you are by far one of the best RUclipss out there. You are actually helping people who are probably going through really tough times looking to the future and are looking to make extra money or a career even. Please don't ever turn into one of those other guys and keep up the good work brother! I think I'll write you in somewhere next time I go to poles haha.. Love all of your awesome projects man.
What a compliment and thank you for all the support. I want to help people. That is really why I started to do this. I want to see people succeed so I try giving them the information to do so. Best wishes.
I have a foot pedal for my vacuum and table saw. Be cautious and always use the on - off on the saw as well when done with a cut. It is easy to accidentally step on the pedal when your hands are in the danger zone.
Very inspirational words about setting short and long term goals. The only time you truly fail is when you quit trying. I've been pasionate about woodworking and been creative my whole life. In 2021 I suffered from a stroke at work and have been working on my mobility ever since, I love working with wood and miss the feel and smell of it. I enjoy your videos. Keep them coming.I have made a good living over the years and was able to raise my 4 children from construction and DIY. Thanks again.
Hey there Matthew. Just recently subscribed. I was a masonry, concrete and landscape contractor for many years. My passion was stone work. Working with my hands, I find, is one of the most fulfilling activities anyone can partake. Due to a permanent medical disability, my ability to participate in a lot the stuff i used to do, is hindered. One thing I've taken up is woodworking. I have a basic knowledge, due to my life long association with other tradesmen, but I wanted you to know I find your videos very helpful, well done, and your positivity infectious. Looking forward to following you and enjoying you teaching this old dog some new tricks. Best regards, Patrick.
Here are some cheap items I use all the time. - cheap set of 1,2,3 blocks, great for making temp jigs and clamping things. - corner clamps, this is kinda a China tool but they are amazing they are squares that have clamp spots on the side.
I second the 1-2-3 blocks! I have a couple of sets and they’re used all the time. I also do a lot of metal work, so sometimes I don’t think of them as woodworking tools, but they most definitely are. On that note, I’d also add machinist’s square, height gauge and surface plate as tools that I got for metal but use for wood more than I thought I might.
moving blankets for doing the finishing sanding and assembling your projects. its 4 or 5 dollars per blanket and it can save a ton of time because it could save you from resanding
One of my favorites is a remote control on/off outlet/switch. At Christmastime, you can often find them under $10 and they're great for turning my shop vac on/off. I have a home made cart with the shop vac on the bottom and a dust collector on top. With the remote, I don't have to find the on/off switch on the shop vac every time I want to use it.
The foot pedal is an awesome safety feature. I had one on my shop vac and it was really helpful. Then I got my first table saw and immediately realized how dangerous it was so I got another pedal for that. It gives me much more confidence knowing that if I step away, or drop something, or someone comes in and distracts me then the saw shuts down immediately. I bought a heavy duty metal pedal on Amazon and wired my own receptacles to it. No problem kicking it around the shop floor.
I use that footpedal switch for my miter saw. It saves me from having to turn the laser on and off. I can just leave it on and it's always on when I actually want to use the saw, but it won't burn out from being on whenever I "have power" to my saw.
RUclips brought me here, and you kept me here. I love this, I love the creations you've shown, and I'll be looking forward to your next video. Thank you!
Thanks for the video. Because of you, I just bought the dust mask. I'm so stupid for not ever using one. I was turning a tree branch on my lathe without using one. I was coughing all day. Thanks again.
Great video. In regards to not wearing ear protection to avoid the jump scare, I've trained my wife and kids to notify me by flicking the garage lights on and off when they enter and/or need my attention. I ALWAYS wear ear protection, always have. Just a tip I thought I'd pass along. I'm a pretty regular watcher!
One item to consider is a cord swivel or something to elevate your power cords away from your work surface. I can't tell you how many times I watched my grandfather cut through his cords with a saw. My job as a kid was "cord holder"..... though sometimes he would still cut the cord where I couldn't reach. One thing I am ISO is kid size gloves for woodworking. I have very small hands.
Quite a few years ago, my sister bought me a 3 pack of small pry bars by Dasco Pro. So many uses in and out of the shop! They all have a nail puller slot and the mini is great for opening everything from drink cans to paint cans. Under $20!
That little cat paw size one is my go-to for stain cans. I will also add to the cheap list, the little bottle opener / paint opener that most people have. Small, inexpensive, but still invaluable when you need to open a paint can.
Keep the tips coming please, recovering from cancer and I need to pay off the med bills. We love everything you’ve videoed so far and you are giving me great confidence! I’m currently making wood ornaments name blocks for 60 kids at an orphanage. Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated greatly.
Can I just say I think YOU and your videos are awesome! The only videos I have downloaded to my phone to watch repeatedly or slowly when working are yours!
I turn wrenchs most of the time and don't get into much sawdust. But I did find this video interesting and a great hint video for a couple of those tools I could use !
I have the RZ mask and I love it. Another channel explained that the digital caliper is very accurately machined and the jaws com together exactly flat so this makes them much better than tweezers for removing splinters.
Big Gator is another great name for these, but a bit pricier. They offer standard and metric, plus smaller bit sizes and one for tapping. All are solid metal.
Great video. Thanks! I have been teaching my son to use different routers and I just ordered two pair of those gasket eye glasses. Router dust gets around face shields and all our glasses. Those look like they will do the trick. Thanks again.
One of my favorite under $20 tools, is the Pittsburgh 12" Locking Wing Divider from Harbor Freight ($9.99). I could go on all day, but one more honorable mention from Harbor Freight, is any of their Pittsburgh ratcheting bar clamp/spreaders - the 18" clamps are just $5.99!
I just found your channel I work with metal most of the time but everything u have shown works both ways metal or wood I'm amazed at the tools at 2dollar price range thanks I'll be subscribed
For my shop vac switch I use a remote control wall switch I picked up for ~$15 @ Lowes. I slip the switch in my apron's chest pocket (or shirt pocket) and no matter which station I'm working at I can thump my chest to turn the vac on or off.
I have a digital level that I use primarily for hanging shelves. But that little square magnetic one is badass! Never even thought to use it for blade angle. Love these videos
Yes, yes, yes and yes! I'll take one of each. I do have a caliber, but digital is always better. I didn't know they made a small angle finder. I use to use a 2' angle finder at work but didn't know about the one you showed. Thnx for your videos.
Calipers have made a huge difference in my wood working. I use it for what you showed and with my plainer. Great for odd sizes or just hitting the mark needed. Love the foot peddle.
Thanks, just watched 3 of these style videos from you and ended up getting the foot peddle, butter spacing guide, nail setter, 123 blocks, center finding ruler, and I opted for the Milescraft 1318 drill guide versus the Kregs drilling guide, it's $20 more dollars but way more versatile for me. I used your affiliate links so spend that $1 wisely, better it's in your pocket than Jeff's.
I love the harbor freight pick set. I have used them for years and modified them for specific jobs. Just another suggestion for people looking for more cheap tools.
😂😂😂 Me, too. I never seem to be able to hang on to a set for long, though. It seems that visitors to my shop will see them hanging on the mag strip above my metal workbench (I religiously separate wood and metal work. Nothing messes up a finish like some oil you picked up off your bench, and nothing aggravates me more than sawdust all over a metal project). As I write (23Dec22) HFT had these on their online coupons for $1...limit 4. I've done limited twice already, and may limit out again before the coupon expires on 26Dec.
Love it, I actually have 3M Prescription Glasses just like those and that gasket is incredible for keeping stuff out of your eyes AND you can wear a mask comfortably !!
@@MatthewPeechWoodworking Many many thanks also for the inspirational videos. I started making Christmas trees with scrap wood and I can't keep them in stock and have a waiting list now as well !!!
Excellent suggestions and your Amazon site has many items grouped in categories where I can refer back to when chasing an idea or problem solving solution. Great job!
I have the Milescraft version of that drill guide and it's super convenient. I've been pondering getting some brass or steel bushings in bigger sizes and making a second one for 5/8" to 1-1/2. I have one of the 3M respirators for use when spraying lacquer- and alcohol-based paints. Switching out the organic cartridges for the round pink particle filters makes for a very comfortable and steam-free dust mask.
I discovered the foot switch about 30yrs ago. It came as an accessory to a high-end scroll saw. I plugged a three-way power adapter into it and ran the saw and an overhead light. I thought it was pretty cool. Now...I have one switching my table mounted router that is a off-on type. I also have one tied into my drill press that is a 'deadman' style, which is to say you must have pressure on the pedal if you want power to your tool. Harbor Freight has both styles in the $15 price point. They are half again as large as the Wen you demonstrated, but seem to work for me. I've had them for years now, and aside from HFT's penchant for selling poorly finished products I find them to be durable and able to handle a decent amount of current. The switch on my router, for example, is likely six years old and shows no need for replacement. So...git yourself a couple of these. Like Matthew says, you'll wonder how you lived without them.

Yea, I’m definitely a fan.

Superb video, thanks! I'd throw in my Japanese wood saw. Love that thing.
I had to put this in my bookmarks. You are a treasure. Thank you
Anytime!
I have never watched a video so intensely.. I need a couple of them...
The flexshaft for those rotary tools are Essential! Opens up so many more uses its crazy!

Good morning neighbor. from Grayson county KY. Thanks for the video very helpful and I love all the stuff you make. Have a blessed Sunday.
Hey neighbor. We are very close!
Thank you! I needed some ideas for my daughter. Her and her dad can easily get a couple of these and any I don't get from Santa I can buy myself.
Just ordered the dust mask, glasses and foot pedal. Some great items in this list. I’m a sucker for a $20 tool.

great tip on buying gifts you'll get back. Kind of like buying your 7 year old sister a Grateful Dead album. Great vid!

Long as the splinter isn’t over 6 inches wide

Glad i found you!!! Freaking out standing!!!
The backside of the drill guide is triangular in shape to drill center and straight on something round like PVC.
Big Gator is another great name for these, but a bit pricier. They offer standard and metric, plus smaller bit sizes and one for tapping. All are solid metal.
Great video. Thanks!
I have been teaching my son to use different routers and I just ordered two pair of those gasket eye glasses. Router dust gets around face shields and all our glasses. Those look like they will do the trick. Thanks again.

I've had them for years now, and aside from HFT's penchant for selling poorly finished products I find them to be durable and able to handle a decent amount of current. The switch on my router, for example, is likely six years old and shows no need for replacement. So...git yourself a couple of these. Like Matthew says, you'll wonder how you lived without them.
