Outlaw's Board Butter - So Good it Should be Outlawed: www.731woodworks.com/store/boardbutter
One of the things I have on my workbench that I haven't really seen before is a French cleat on one side. Then I can easily swap out what is stored there depending on what I need, e.g can have the clamps there during gluing, then swap to my sanding gear when it's sanding time, then rubbish bin for cleanup, etc. To me, dynamic storage like that feels like the whole point of something like French cleats, so I'm surprising I haven't really seen it around much.
A much cheaper (almost free) option for the paint cones is to cut small scraps of wood & either pound a skinny nail or drive a screw through the middle. You can just set them on your workbench & lay your workpiece on the tips of the nails/screws. Works like a charm. I used some wood from my large scrap collection & several screws for mine. I would recommend using the same length nails or screws, just to make sure they will hold things level. You can even make larger ones with more than 1 screw/nail in each if you like. If you are concerned about piercing yourself with the point while you work, just file it down a bit to dull it. I think I made about 35, virtually for free since I already had all the supplies, but I suppose you could count the few bucks I'd paid for the screws. Still dirt cheap & they didn't take long to make at all. Just an additional idea. Thanks for all the suggestions. Hope you have a great day!
we need a video of these
He would never say that in a video though. This channel is all about commissions on tools now. It’s not even a woodworking channel anymore.
Hockey pucks are also great as an anti vibration interface between your air compressor and concrete floor when you're bolting it down. Power tip time: freeze the hockey pucks for at least 24 hours before drilling the bolt hole in it. If not, the rubber won't cut near as clean and might even catch the bit and get dangerous. Freezing makes the puck very hard and easy to drill through.
Now THAT is brilliant! Can be used with other rubber products too.
As a long time fan, I also feel like the videos are becoming more and more about products you can get and less about things you can do. I opened this hoping to see a bunch of small tricks and jigs to make, not stuff to buy.
I understand that as a content creator there needs to be a balance and I'm happy to watch product recommendations (and buy them from your links, whenever I can) to enjoy the rest of your content, but it feels like there is less and less "rest of" the content and it's all product lists. It would be nice to have a mix of both on the videos
yeah, and i feel like its the same products cycled over and over after being here so long.
I’m wondering when the channel name is going to become more honest and change the name to 731 Tool suggestions.
as a beginner wood worker i have found the HF small parts cases a do very well . i know a lot of people dont like HF tools BUT i dont have problems unless i use some ( electrical mostly) every day or all day long ! i have broke a couple of the quick clamps but the bar clamps and f style seem ok! POWER strips get the 4ft 12 outlet if you have room some of mine are several years old and going fine, they also have a set that have magnets to hold them on more expensive but nice, i also like their 1250lum rechargeable work light with power bank , it just has a kick stand but also a 1/4-20 tread hole that you could put on a tripod my work table is an adjustable writhing table right now will have to make something more solid once i get the shop finished out and figure out places for stuff, it works good as an outfeed table or drop it down to put a project on down low !mine is electric so moves from one height to another quickly. Great tips will need to pick up some for my shop(when its finished)!!!!!!! love the rubber mat on the table i keep a rubber entry mat to put down when i work on the floor saves the knees!!!! AS ALWAYS GREAT TIPS AND VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I use some HF stuff. I grabbed a couple rechargeable work lights. They will receive a 1/4-20 screw. I grabbed a couple of old camcorder tripods at a thrift store. I made a do-dad out of maple, to fit the tripod mount, since I don't have a 3D printer. I can set a light where ever I want.
Bad ass flex building your RUclips award into the table! Love it
Hey I see you are sporting a nice new plaque. Congratulations
I have the Rockler T-track clamp and like it. However, since I'm a cheapskate, I made my own. I took a scrap piece of plywood, traced the Rockler profile, cut out multiple pieces on the bandsaw, made the elongated slot, added a Toilet bowl flange bolt, washer, and homemade nut. They have been working great for more than 7 years. If I accidentally cut into them, I don't care since they won't damage my blades.
I'm reading some of the comments and people are asking about the type of content that has now become synonymous with 731.
The truth is, we have to look at it from the perspective of the content creator. Build videos may have been the main craze let's say 10 years ago. But as time progressed, RUclips and many other platforms have become saturated with this content, and consequently viewership per video tends to drop, which is not ideal for the content creator. After all, as much as they may love the artform, it's still a business at the end of the day.
Therefore, you may have noticed a lot of RUclips Woodworking channels have followed the metrics and branched out their content.
That's a business decision, and we have to respect that.
Some have gone into tips and tricks videos.
Some into jigs and stuff.
Some into tools and reviews.
Some into teaching the basics.
Some into restoration projects.
And some still do project builds.
Some of us may indulge in one or the other, while others, like me, would love all of them for the various aspects that they cover.
Truth is, there is a plethora of all types of content across the Woodworking Community.
We just have to respect each one for what it is, and each creator for their decision in direction.
And I'm sure among them all, we can find enough content that'll satisfy any niche we're looking for.
So thank you Matt, for the type of content that you create.
Keep doing what you do brother!
And keep using your medium to spread the gospel in the process.
Wow. What an amazing response. I really appreciate that a lot!
Great tips. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Matt. That is a sweet workbench.
Thanks, a bunch! I found it, I was looking at another video of yours and got the list mixed up. Love your videos! Take care and God bless.
I agree with all of these suggestions! Great tips!
Glad you like them!
Those are all great ideas! I wish I had the room for a big work table but I share the 40x40 shop with my lawn care stuff so one side is all wood working and the other is lawn care. I will say my little 2x3' work table has served me well but its time for something a bit bigger and something with a level top lol, love the 90 degree dog ear braces ...I could really use those!
Taking notes as I finish my first workbench build
Nice shirt and Thanks for sharing with us!💖👍😎JP
Your small parts organizer boxes in the center look just like mine...random washers, screws, miscellaneous other products, and the overspill from when you forget to fasten the closures prior to picking up and moving said box. It's all a sign of a busy craftsmen. Carry on my friend!
I’m glad I found a video where the title card is not so much of clickbait. Now I can watch it.
Great video Matt as always I’m hoping to start building myself a workbench here in the next few weeks and I really love your bench I just need to incorporate my DeWalt job site table saw into my bench so I can have an out feed table when cutting stuff. Just need to decide what to do on the top tee track or dog holes ? But I really like that mat you add to the top of your bench definitely going to look into one of them.
Thanks for another great video. I appreciate you. Also, I love your shirt. My pastor preached a message several years ago called “Even If”. It included that scripture. Love the song by Mercy Me too. God bless you
My observation with T-track- really good for holding stuff horizontally but vertically, it’s regretful. It pulls up etc. I put t-track but am going to be putting in a few dog holes for that vertical holding.
+1 for hockey pucks. They make great bench cookies and they also make nice anti-vibration cabinet or equipment feet
Interested in the Taylor Tools 20mm hold downs. 👌🏽
Matt, I love you videos I love your board butter and I love your ministry. I have the same million dollar bills from living waters. 😂 Keep up the good work. I'm super green at woodworking and I've made two of your benches and the jointer jig so far. I have all the pieces cut for 5 layered crosses but I'm not sure how to cut slots for the first layer but I figure I should make your safer crosscut sled first and maybe I'll figure it out. Thank you for all you do!
My workbench has a "T" track, table saw, a panel comes out to set my miter saw and it's level for long stuff, another panel comes out for my planer so it sets flush for an outfeed table. Has 3 electric boxes to plug into. Getting ready to add a router inset with lift. 9 drawers to store most used stuff.Has 6 wheels that lock so i can move it anywhere or load it in my enclosed trailer.
I used 1/2" plywood to create french cleats on the ends and back of my bench. I can grab something off the wall and take it to the bench easily. I put the clamp holder on the end of the bench. Even though it is also on a french cleat, it has not moved since day 1. I use those plastic political signs/contractor signs for protection. They don't cover the whole bench, but they are good enough for me. A couple of times I did grab 3, and tape them together, but for what I do, one is generally good.
Some great ideas, Matt! Thank you so much. 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
I just built a MMFT
(MASSIVE Multi Function Table) It's 9 foot by 5 foot. Needed something new for the Festool TSV-60.
Always a good watch 👍 something that may help others though we work as contractors with portable workbenches we use FRP sheets glued to our bench. You can also use shower walls as well but frp is best. Glue dosent stick to it easly, paint flakes right off and impact resistant won't dent or scratch. If they use it for restaurants and hospitals for a cleanable surface there's a reason. Also I have this issue of people not noticing that depth of saw cuts and going into the table. Rhe smell of burning fiberglass should be your clue something is wrong and all thoes plastic shavings but dosent dull or destroy blades when they cut into the table. It's so easy to clean , maintain and replace better than formica or milmine.
Im addicted to this channel, I’ve watched everything 😂😂😂
Thanks!
I love your channel and you usually do a great job discussing woodworking, but I have to point out that there is a lot more to drilling holes for an MFT or 2096 system than you implied. These holes need to be space precisely for the system to work as intended, so it's not like you can just start drilling 20mm holes.
If you're going to drill your own holes, like me, there really is only one option to get CNC-like placement and precision of the holes, and that is by buying a UJK Parf Guide Mark II jig which can be purchased from TSO or Axminster tools (shipped from London to the U.S. for free). The jig itself is a little over $250 after tax and shipping (depending on where you live). I own this jig and it is an example of phenomenal build quality similar to TSO products. The other good option in my opinion is to buy A pre drilled benchtop or drill your own with a CNC. The point being that you can't just drill your own holes like you mentioned in the video. You need to place them precisely so that the holes can be used to always hold your work and track saw and perfect angles (and with the right accessories, you can cut virtually any angle with absolute precision).
Lastly, there is a whole lot of functionality you didn't show or mention using the 2096 system which has been around since WWII. TSO and Axminster Tools both offer a ton of options for MFT/2096 systems for woodworking if anyone is interested. In fact, no other holding method rivals the versatility of the 2096 system in my opinion-and it's not even close. The only exception might be Woodpecker's Track Clamp Bench Top which combines the 2096 system with a series of t-slots or, better yet, the dovetail track version Peter Millard made.
I like your table I had 1 years ago with power, and vac built in. Then I moved back home to Oklahoma. Don't have the room in a 20 x 25 shop. To many tools and equipment. I do woodworking, to concrete,weilding and small engine repair .
I like Odie’s oil. Not sure why so many RUclipsrs have jumped on the Rubio train and dislike the Odie’s. Glad to see you haven’t done that.
Great video Mr. Matt. I’ve noticed that you’ve been done some reviews on routers in the past. I would like ti recommend one. I noticed that you have a Skil router and router table. I recently ordered one from woodcraft. It doesn’t look like yours. It has a screen on it that has features that allows you to set your bit speed digitally. It is well worth the money in my opinion.
Great suggestion!
Traditional workholding with Holdfasts is quicker and more versatile than anything IMHO. I am a hybrid woodworker and the discovery of Holdfasts changed the game with power and handtools.
Lots of good suggestions but one holding option you didn't mention for dog holes is a hold fast . And what about a vice?
I haven't had luck with my bench cookies. They vibratenall over the place when im sanding. Everything else is very helpful thanks
2:44 the amount of wobble in that Festool MFT3 table never ceases to amaze me. Oh but don’t worry for 100 bucks they will sell you the stabilizing cross braces. I love Festool but that’s not cool.
100% agree. It's ridiculously expensive and still wobbles like that.
Dashboard PWS solves almost every issue the MFT/3 has and Rob is always improving it. Best woodworking purchase I’ve made in a few years. Has parallel guide system, vertical work holding and a plethora of other features. (I paid full price, am not sponsored in anyway by Dashboard) small company, American made.
FYI your Home Depot links in the desc don't work; just loads HD's homepage.
Lee Valley sells grip discs for hockey pucks which turns your pucks into awesome bench cookies for very cheap. I made 12 and the size and weight is much better than Rockler's IMO
I have a cord drop with 4 receptacles over my work bench. Saves triping over cords.
731 and "CA Glue"............."I put that shit on EVERYTHING!!!". LOL :-) Thanks for the ideas
Instead of brown paper a shower curtain works great for glue ups to protect benchtop
So you have a big rubber mat to cover up your T-tracks ? very handy
Literally takes 5 seconds to roll it up out of the way when I need the tracks.
Routing 3/4" deep in my workbench would be a problem since it has 5/8" plywood top.
Hey I’ve been watching your channel for years now and I’m wondering, do you actually build anything anymore like you used to? It seems like the only vids in my feed anymore are always product type vids. I’m just curious.
He's mostly a product review channel now
Mostly do tool type videos but build occasionally. Last build video was about 2 weeks ago.
Did you move away from the Microjig dovetail system? Any specific reason why?
Go Preds!
Holdfasts, at least a quality holdfast, are so fast and effective. You will see them on hand tool oriented shops, which I am guessing most of your subscribers are not. But they are worth taking a look at.
Sir do you anyone that’s in a wheelchair and has a custom workbench? Iv looked at some on Amazon that are 6’x2’ adjustable hight but 1” thick. I need something I can roll under any suggestions?
Thanks
Randy
Reasonable compared to any hobby that can make mony❤😂 . If you have a special skill how many more skill .
Everything dandy till paint/glue are anything else gets splashed into the Tracks
Dog holes ok, but not so compatible for under branch storage unless there’s a double top to stop that
Do you have a link to the rubber mat? Is it 1/8" thick like you mentioned?
yes it is linked in the description and pinned comment. TI think it's actually 3/16" thick (very close to 1/8)
My shed is a 10x12 and most of my tools will be along the 12 length. The 10 ft length will be more mobile station. Now with all this said my mobile workbench would be either a 3x5. Should I look at making it bigger cuz I like yours is big. Any thoughts 💭 ❤❤❤
Thank you 🙏
Another great video. But I can’t stop focusing on “etc.” 😂
😂 bad habit. I’ll work on it
I've watched many of your videos and I've noticed one common trait of yours. You love to say "it is very reasonably priced" or "they're cheap." NOTHING lately is reasonably priced and more than that, cheap. Woodworking is fun, but it is, above all else, very expensive. Own it. Your shop is probably worth $100,000. That said, you make an entertaining and knowledgeable video. Thanks.
Reasonable is relative and if a company is keeping it high, then the market has decided it is reasonable. Just because you don’t think it’s reasonable doesn’t mean it isn’t.
Everything is expensive these days
@@qwerty112311 pretty skewed "logic." I could use your argument against you, but I'm not here to argue. It's very plain woodworking is a very expensive hobby. Your shops invent tuu ory proves that. I just thought you would be open to logical thinking. I apologize.
@@robertmceuen3630woodworking can be expensive but also it doesn't need to be.... I've got less into my woodworking "shop" than I have into my several year old pc.
@@Macuhdohnadadoh man you said a mouthful. I 100% agree with you. Thank you. His response to me was typical RUclipsr.
Even If
Couldn’t more cheaply print, assuming you have a 3d printer, “hockey pucks”? Idk. I don’t have one so I don’t know filament cost.
Do you have a link for the 3d printed mft dogs
I got it free on Printables
✅
Is that a video monitor on the surface of your work table?
Naw, just a RUclips play button that I inset and encased in epoxy. If you search 731 Woodworks Workbench you can see the build video where I did it.
At 5:34 (+/-) is that mouse poop at the back of the drawer?
lol it's sawdust
Get a yoga mat from a relative or friend it can do most of what these rubber items and some silicone can do and it's free and frequently comes in ridiculous patterns
First guess is money and space.
Can you ask questions here? It is there a specific place I need to ask questions to get answers?
use my website 731woodworks.com and use the contact form
OBSERVATION..Can you do workshop on a budget or compare expensive to cheaper price similar tools for people staring out or just dont have the money. Economy blows and not everyone can afford festool everything or a 20x10 workbench.
Thanks
My channel is full of videos on budget option tools.
if it makes you feel any better i too suffered for an inordinate amount of time before taking 30 seconds to mount a power strip at my bench

Your content is generally OK on your channel, but what has gotten so bad is your click bait titles like this one. Seriously, 99% Never Do This. It’s obviously at best an exaggeration which is just a nice word for lying. After wearing all the Christian t-shirts and seeing the signage in your videos it doesn’t do anything positive for your testimony. Please try to be real and let your content be good enough to get the clicks.
You seem like a cop ? Are you an undercover ? You have a weird attitude that only cops , and people that have been in a position of authority and think they have some moral high ground in them or something you have that I can tell
You are correct and incorrect. I was an Arkansas State Trooper, but I don't think I have a "moral high ground." But you can learn more about why I left ASP here if you want ruclips.net/video/gZ7g7MTc7-Y/видео.htmlsi=-88ky_V22YBawWWv
Idk why, but I can't stand when you say "excetera" (cause you say it a lot I guess). I love your videos, but it's etcetera lol
Sorry! I'll work on it. Bad habit.
Actually... 😉 It's et cetra. It's two words. Latin: "and [the] rest"
Now that would have been a good giveaway The bee. wax
