    I've watched a bunch of the vids on using this system. I've ordered and received mine. There are vids which addrees how to avoid potential problems.. One of the tips is to set your triangles from the mid point of your top and work outward from there, not from the outside inward. Apparently it is in the written instructions to improve accuracy. Don't ask me why, but apparently it is a thing that some machinists have also confirmed makes things more accurate.

    I wasn't sure about it when I first bought it. However after my first couple of benches it's amazing. Its allowed me to help out friends and also try out other ideas like extension wings etc. Even though its expensive you'll make your money back after two benches - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

    Great demonstration, Brian! I made my MFT-style workbench/assembly table four years ago using the MK2 version and it was much easier than I thought it would be. I did see some blowout on the bottom of the Valchromat because I didn't use a backer board...lesson learned. This means I can't flip the worktop over when the first side is too abused, but after four years of nearly daily use, it is still in great condition.

    Hi Sedge, i have one as well and think its a great tool. Top presentation on your part as always. One small comment, i had a chat with Peter Parfit - about the alignment of the first row. (i had started same as you explained and did not get accurate result)
    Peter confirmed, that the holes in the Parfstick are not necessarily 100% parallel to the outer edge.
    Keep up the great work and best regards from Germany 🇩🇪 Karl

    Hi Sedge, I have been using the Parf Guide System since the 1st version. I used it so much I upgraded to the Mark 2 version. The key is taking the time to register each pin/drill guide and you can end up with very close to CNC accuracy. Your walk through is right on the money. Johnny O...

    Great! One simple point, when drilling the outer rows of 20mm holes keep the suction block on the inner side of your top, this way you'll get better extraction as there is an open section if you look up from underneath when doing it as you show. Thanks for the vid, very helpul.

      thickness is determined on length of 20mm bit.....

    • @coolbugfacts1234
      @coolbugfacts1234 5 месяцев назад

      The only issue with making a thicker top is that you won't be able to fit clamps through the dog holes, and certain accessories that clamp to the MFT tops are only designed for 18mm tops. The clamp issue can be mitigated by adding a big chamfer on the underside, but it's best to stick to an 18mm top.

      You will get tearout with any forstner bit if you're using plywood, the solution is drill all your 3mm pilot holes, flip the top over and score the ply freehand with the forstner bit. Then flip it again and proceed as normal.

    One huge tip: if you're using the Parf guide with plywood, the pins may be very difficult to insert and remove. If that is the case, dip them in paste wax or something similar every so often, this will save you from getting nasty blisters on your fingers. Ask me how I know :^)
