I followed your instructions and did a good job first time. My wife actually commented favourably and I am now not completely useless.
This is a pretty solid little workbench. While once you figure out how it comes together, it is physically Easy to assemble ruclips.net/user/postUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh by yourself. But the diagrams explaining the steps are really pretty bad. I could not get the handle pins in all the way despite multiple attempts, so I just used a screw I had on hand for the 2nd handle. I could not get the first pin in further or pull it back out. You are supposed to hammer it in, but I had no leverage and the handle is plastic and I did not want to risk breaking it. I will get a lot of use out of the bench because of the convenient size and height. It does fold up nicely for storage. They even explain how to fold it so you don't get pinched...that is important!
When scoring the laminate, put the straight edge on the side you want to save and cut with the waste end exposed, that way no matter if you miss or not, you wont scratch the side you want to keep.
Yeah, good rule of thumb for pretty much all scoring, cutting, and even marking (especially with a marking knife).
I was thinking the same thing
Also I like to clamp my straight edge. Nothing worse when scoring and the straight edge suddenly moves.
@@JayDee-xj9lu In his case, he's using a saw guide. Those things hold pretty well. Good advice either way though.
Awesome book that gives you step-by-step photos ruclips.net/user/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt and directions to make every day project. I can see myself making a few of these projects and giving them as housewarming and holiday gifts!
I was a laminate technician for years. My favorite material for keeping the laminate and the surface separate before contact was Venetian blind slats. Easy to stack and transport. Nice and low so you could line up the surfaces. Try it and you'll like it!
Oh, I’ll have to give that a try at work.
My boss 30 years ago used them also but I love 1/2 poplar dowels
In my old shop we used to use metal pencil rods for the apprentices to support laminates when gluing up full 4'×8' sheets. After a lot of practice, we all learned how to lay full sheets without any "stickers".
Nice! I always used dowels, but have used regular trim pieces, even those cheap plastic trim pieces like quarter round works too.
I was shown that trick a coule of decades ago, after using other random sticks and paper. I still have the same set of Venetian blind slats that I found at the dump way back then. They have been used dozens of times over the years, without fail. Just make sure they are wiped clean of dust and junk before use.
That there is an absolute unit of a table saw system especially with that big ol’ harbor freight saw😂
I noticed that too. Didn’t know HarborFreight made quality table saws. 😆
That’s a Grizzly 1023 not a harbor freight
Harbor Freight certainly did not sell that saw!
Of course it's Harbor Freight, didn't you see the label?
@@ewetuber186000 The other saw Jim, the one with the big green and black Harbor Freight label under the blade height adjustment wheel.
If anyone else attempted these intros it would kill me! But with you my friend, it never gets old.
I think "Mr. Bourbon Moth" needs to build a bourbon bar for the shop..or house, where ever the misses prefers you drink....with all the cabinets you've been doing, it will fit right in..come on, build a bar!
I definitely concur. We want to see a bar built.
BAAAAAAAAAAAARR!!! 😂
Shuffle Board table needs a friend.
🤚 put my name down for the bar build vote
I agree with Torrence Carpentry. That way he could do more videos on some fantastic bourbons for us to indulge ourselves in.
I was a laminate Jedi master for 49 years before getting my doctorate in laminate scoring and I have a pro tip. Keep doing what you’re doing
we bow before you, Master.
Watching those mitered corners perfectly come together is IMMENSELY satisfying
Never seen Jason this serious before, , , , , , just saying. - another great vid 👍
Went through the whole Harbor Freight Website. I couldn't for the life of me find that snazzy black table saw that you are showcasing! I guess they aren't selling that saw any longer
Aah, the return of the Harbor Freight Stop Saw!
Jason, great and informative video. Scoring the laminate before you chamfer is unnecessary. Just hit it with a flush cut bit w/bearing, then the chamfer. Also you can totally run the router in a normal direction (against the rotation for better control) without worrying about any chip out. I worked in a laminate shop for almost 8 years and layed thousands of linear feet of laminate, never had an edge chip out with a flush cut or running against the rotation of the motor on a router. Also, LOVE your "Harbor Freight" table saw!
As a question for you: if I were going to make some channels in the top, say for t-track, would it be better to pre-cut those and fit the laminate in sections, or can you use a router to make the grooves in place after installing the top?
I concur. i performed many sins with no chip out.
@@PFoxen i, an expert since i did this once, would say once glued, pretend its one with the wood its covering. I would not make panels but route right through. This stuff routes very nicely.
I was thinking of using this for my workbench but wondered how it would go with drilling all the dog holes?
I ended up using the Ujk parf jig, it was really easy and there was no chip out on any of the wholes.
Pro tip: when using a nailer, make sure the hand holding your workpiece is about 50% farther away from the nail gun's tip than the length of the nail, in ANY direction. Don't count on the nail going in the direction you aimed. You'll be very thankful when that inevitable day comes that the nail ricochets off of a hidden knot or other obstruction and shoots out sideways instead. Think it won't happen? You _may_ be right, but given enough time, the probability of all possibilities approaches one. Maybe this safety step is actually being followed in the video, but it's hard to tell.
The "fingers away just before firing" technique shown on the very last shot is a good idea too, especially if you really feel the need to get a very close touch-fit.
Also, look at the stick of nails and the way the tips are tapered- they form a ridge that runs the length of the stick. If you hold the nailer parallel to the grain and the taper hits something that deflects it (like a hard growth ring in the wood), it will curve, usually up into your hand. BUT, if you hold the nailer perpendicular to the grain (and perpendicular to the top surface in this video) it will deflect sideways, which is just fine- maybe even holds a little better.
Happened to me once before when I was pinning the corner of a floating floor. Nail ricocheted off of a knot in the plywood underneath, funny thing is it jumped out a lot further than I thought it would. My thumb was at least 3 in away and I was using a 2-inch Brad nail. Yet somehow it went in and shot back out at an angle came out of the floor and straight through the tip of my thumb entering the bottom curling around the bone and coming out the top just behind my cuticle. Now yeah I'm a man so I just grabbed some pliers pulled it out duct taped it and went back to work. But it hurt like the bejesus pulling that thing out and it wasn't very pleasant the rest of the day.
"given enough time, the probability of all possibilities approaches one (aka certainty)" Damn, a practical statistician, right here on YuToob. It's nice when Bayes shows right on time.
I love the new gear! I had to Stop when I Saw your new table saw! Harbor Freight's been stepping up their game, it seems.
to me, this is the absolute model for what a woodcraft how-to should be. clear, simple, full context, sketch diagrams, fun presentation, outstanding outcome. tyvm
Love your Harbour Freight Table saw. 😉 Nice table saws Station. 🇨🇦
Yes wonder where he got such a nice saw at harbor freight? 🤔
the "binging with babish" of woodworking. love your stuff
You forgot to mention how crazy sharp laminate is. I was scrolling through RUclips and saw your post and I was like "Oh Jason is on! Missed his sorry butt !" Seriously man, I can binge watch your videos. Long time ago a land far far away I used to restore antique radios with hubby. I did both, electrical and the wood working part. Those days the was no RUclips only internet. I wish I could have watched these kind of videos back then..... I still miss my table saw and my tools.
This was fantastic! I just made a shop drawer base and used laminate surface. It went over without a hitch thanks to you and this video!
Great job showing the basics of laminate installation. There are many ways to do this, and lots of tips and tricks.
I switched to using water based contact cement a long time ago. 3M makes one that is top notch. Very little odor, and very strong. I did my kitchen counters in 2007, and they still look good as new. I have done several workshop surfaces as well, with zero long term issues. I even did a bunch of small tops in a mobile coffee shop/school bus. All in bright yellow, and all of it survived heavy daily abuse.
One more thing, I always use white or yellow for workshop surfaces (outfeed tables, extension wings, etc.). You can write notes on them while working, and easily wipe them off later. I use the scraps to make note pads that glue to the side of my tape measures, too.
good to know about the 3m stuff. i have laminate-like finish sheets to lay on a kitchen island to finish the sides. also, my cabinet toe kick covers are the same. i may look into this to adhere them vs. construction adhesive/pin nails
I like how you trimmed out the top with the maple then installed the laminate. Usually I see people adding the hardwood trim at the end, but this way gives a nice smooth work surface and a more modern look. I like it!
Yes and since the laminate lays over the edge, there is no joint on top between the self-edge and the laminate top. Keeps out dust and spilled beverages, both hot and cold. ;-)
As a 50 year + woodworker, who has had the cutting tool wander away from the straight edge occasionally. I started measuring to the far side of my straight edge. So that if an error occurs, the wandering cut is in the scrap and not in the protected finished piece. Nice pipes! Your voice and the clamps!
that harbor freight saw is sexy AF. They've really upped their game.
This video was so much better with out the normal voice over that you do…. Keep them live buddy
Oh Man! Where were people like you as Woodshop teachers back in the 60's? The timing on this was perfect. Building a portable roller cabinet for my new Kamado Joe II. You've convinced me, "I can do this". Now have to revisit how you make those perfect drawers. But first,,,to the Bourbon decanter shelf.
Thumbs for the introduction alone!
Jason, you make life better. Thank you.
Love the Harbor Freight logo.
Saw Stop is going to be calling soon with a sponsorship offer
Good instruction. Love the Harbor Freight label over the Saw Stop logo on the saw. Hilarious!
Love the "Harbor Freight" label🤣🤣🤣
Love the content bro! Gotta give you 2 out of 5 stars on laminate though. I'm a production carpenter and there's no time for the extra care and effort, and especially time, you put into the laminated tops. What you really want to do is cut the laminate an inch or more longer on all sides and forget the cheat sticks on a top that small. Grab it, bend it, stick your long edge and roll it on by hand. Also, a 1/4" flush trim bit, cheating your fence/deck of your router up off the surface a bit, will provide a cut you can file back. That is, to laminated banding. Even if you have a hardwood band that you use a chamfer or roundover or whatever bit, it needs filing or back bevel sanding. Hope I can help you in return. I've learned a thing or two watching your vids. Thanks bro.
The sound of scoring a laminate.... Give me the chill
"Harbor Freight" (with green label) table saw... hahahaha....
I always love to watch your videos. Very educational and entertaining at the same time. Thanks for sharing your creativity and more power to your channel!
@20:45, I didn't know you were fluent in Russian. Neat!
I must say, in my opinion that was one of your better instructional videos. Your demeanor and delivery in this video seemed different, I liked it quite a lot! Job well done!
You've got entirely too much energy! LOL
How about a video of some out-takes? I bet that would be fun. :D
Keep up the great work Jason. I love your content.
I second it
At work we use 3M Fastbond contact, less VOC’s than standard contact. Works good to fix your boots too.
Great vid Jason
Man! Harbor Freight really stepping their game up with the table saws. LoL!!!
New subscriber here! Over here from Flipping Drawers channel. He mentioned that he watches you, so I came right over! Hello!
Just amazing! So calming to watch
Excellent how to on laminate install! A fella might say “right on”!
Thank's a lot for the lesson and your tips! With you i learn english, take a good moment and dream about oak, Festool and woodworking .... 😅
Thank you Mister ! Christine from France 🇫🇷
Just noticed the Harbor Freight taped over Saw Stop. 😂
Didn't realize running a router in reverse on light passes reduced tear out. Good tip! 👌
Jason…love your videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and tips!
Great tutorial. Very thorough and well explained. Keep up the great work!
Another mighty fine video. Awesome work, can’t wait for the next one 👌👌👌
Great Video Jason! Also love you relabling of he sawstop as harbor freight!
Sweet! Great job as usual. Love your videos. Both entertaining and informative.
If you have an old tape measure, you can sacrifice the tape by cutting it into strips. It is great for keeping the two surfaces apart and the tape slides easily on the glued surfaces when it is time to pull it out.
Can't wait to see your next video when you'll use this amazing newly laminated workshop
Great design! Looks fantastic!!!
Both entertaining and informative. Always great tips
Dang nice harbor freight table saw!! 🤣 I used to do relamination or bank teller lines. WAYYY to much laminate. But it is a great product. RUclips has been lacking in how-to videos for laminate. This is a great one!
Nice work Jason, I really like the island work area you made. Have a great day.
great tutorial, that unit looks epic, the whole table saw area is unreal, nice work as always Jason.
gone with the funky 70s groove music for this one. cool :D better for my bleary early morning head
I love this guys videos. Glad to see that my workshop isn't the only one with over spray paint on the floor 😅
Good stuff. Thank you. Love your style.
I like this video better then the previous one. I guess he took it more seriously then the other ones.
Everything you do is so perfect! Gives me a target!
Absolutely love the Harbor Freight sign over your SawStop logo! Nice touch! Freakin hilarious!
Great job, great learning experience. Thank you 🙏
Great job showing how to do the basics. Well done, I'm definitely subscribing.
Great video. Great instruction. Thank you for the step by step. Great looking shop !
Great video man! very thoroughly explained!
Outstanding video and narrative! I have been wanting to add this to some of my tops and now you have given me the confidence to give it a try! Thank you for posting
That was awesome. I like the black with the super light wood color.
Great video and build!
Those miter tips were super helpful and informative!
Loved the video, lots of information
I know this video is old. It I kept referencing this video when I laminated my work bench today. Thank you for making this video.
Great detailed video. Thank you for carefully sharing every step.
Beautiful job. Great tips. Really. Please continue to educate and inspire.
looks awesome, thx for this good video
I built a massive movie theater style projector screen with this stuff at my last house. It was pretty awesome. Great material for that purpose. Much better looking than the silver screen paint.
Great video - perfect explanation! I am going to do some laminating this weekend! Thank you!
Thanks, your work is excellent!
Great Video Jason!
Love your videos, great info and great work
Excellent demonstration and instructions.
to me it was one of the best. I like all of your videos, but especially this one. thanks.
Brilliant! You are doing some of the most useful and entertaining content in the woodworking RUclips community. I just broke ground on a new shop and I’ll be laminating like a mad man! Nice job!
Thanks very much! I learned a lot of useful information.
Super helpful and informative, thank you! 😀
