      Mostly true! But although it's true that "a bad workman blames his tools," a good workman tends to have decent ones. 😁 It's amazing what a master craftsman can make with low quality tools and materials, but the rest of us do benefit from the help of some good equipment.

      In a skill where you’re always learning, time matters. Tools are time savers.
      You can do almost all woodworking with a chisel, hammer, and drill bit. It just takes 12 lifetimes to figure out how.

      No no, my tools are a limit. I’ve been planning to build a table for ages now, but I can’t find the time or motivation to hand plane over 20 pieces of wood. It’ll happen at some point, but I have other things to do, and with a jointer/thicknesser the table would already be done. That’s just how it is.

    When using different rulers/measurimg tapes etc. it's good to not switch between to many in the same project. Even if they should be accurate there is still some difference in them. More noticeable on bigger scale projects than small things. So keep it simple with one for big measurements and one for the small details.

    Right on about the 3D printer. I got mine to make prototypes of PCB boards and enclosures before shipping my CAD files off to the manufacturer. But I used it all the time for things I design or download. I also use Fusion 360 all the time now. I just upgraded to the Bambu Labs A1. It's amazing. Now CAD I'm good at, drilling holes in the right place not so good. I appreciate your woodworking that much more because I'm bad at it. :)

    I am in the market for a chisel set, and so I was excited to see your Narex recommendation. However, either you were being impressively dry when you said "affordable" or it's possible that they are showing up insanely expensive in my local market (Canada). $360+tax (roughly USD$300) seems like a lot. Are these part of a higher tier that cannot be obtained with mortal brands like Irwin and Dewalt? I'm open to being convinced, but I don't want to pay a sucker tax.

  • @mm9773
    @mm9773 26 дней назад

    As far as I can tell (relying on comments made by professionals), the defining factor of a jointer/thicknesser is the overall build quality, not if the head pattern is helical, spiral or straight. In other words, unless you have all the moneys, you might want to compromise on the surface quality and instead make sure you get a machine that makes your material square, straight and parallel.

    • @pjforde1978
      @pjforde1978 26 дней назад

      Yes, cast iron is always better than lesser table surfaces... but the difference between helical and straight knives is night and day. Not only will the end result be noticably smoother with less cut out, but the machine itself will be about 40% quieter. Plus, if a blade gets damaged, you just rotate that node by 90 degrees instead of needing to replace the whole knife set. Over time, this makes the true cost of ownership far lower.

    Good morning 🌅, Very nice box, you must of been playing the joker 🤡, card , when I purchased a tool, whether it was £10 or £ £15,000, I would make sure it paid for itself less than a year, Or in the case of something £10, probably even a day, When needs must, I still have my Mafell door lock machine, that payed for it self in less than a month, I had 10 doors to make, with machine I could machine the holes for a euro lock in less than five minutes, I started off with a similar planner to your, but about 20 years ago I purchased a SCM Classic Planer and thickness separate, a very good purchase, how is your work shop coming along, if you have not got it all ready snow ⛄️ it is on its way,

When I say ONLY I should probably specify that I’ll allow 😂 you to use your main tools to get your materials properly prepared and maybe 10% use of your top used tools such as table saw to section off your materials if needed…I’m not that mean to say NO main tools 😂.
    I already enjoy your videos and It just popped in to my head shortly after watching your video that it could be a creative way to find a use case that’s ideal for your lesser used tools and the ad revenue will help you “justify” the money you have already spent….maybe 😂

      One thing about tape measures... the loose "heel" can be a source of slight measurement variations in different tapes so if you are using a tape, use only one tape, that way if theres any inaccuracy it will be on all parts of a project so will cancel out...
      I have numerous tapes around my shop for convenience but I will use only one throughout a project for this reason.. I also have a vernier calipers and a digital calipers (I'm a machinist by trade) which I use a lot... the micrometers don't get much use in my woodworking endeavours... 🙄😂
