Since you asked for feedback, here is mine: Yes, I enjoyed the woodworking tips - short, direct, well presented - and would appreciate more in a series.
What June said ☝🏻☝🏻
June for President!
💯 these are vary helpful tips, and I've been woodworking for a decade 🙋♂️
build yourself a kitchen and stay in it
@@X862go salam woodworker 🤝🤝
I bought this as a gift for my friend ruclips.net/user/postUgkxcZqgZ8Ynkiz5n_LxIWRlAicuzmz5kCHG who is just starting out in the world of wood work. He loves it!! There is a great section on different wood and what to use for what kind of job and a similar section for tools as well. The projects in it are things you probably would have a go at with clear instructions, pictures, videos and diagrams throughout. Great for a beginner/amateur wood worker.
Okay, I have a request - could you go around your wall and show: A) All of your tools, B) Tell us what they are called C) What the tools can do.
It would be awesome if there was a full video just about tools.
This would really help me out as English isn’t my first language, so basically while I can speak it freely, I do not know specialised language about woodworking yet - like what tools are made, or what they are intended to do, what kind of motions they have, what they can possibly do or be used for, if one tool can do other things other than say “this is a drill and it drills holes” lol
It would be awesome if you could go with all the tools in one video and brief description, and then maybe do a series of videos or shorts on what the tools can do in more depth? I’m pretty sure a good description of a tool’s capabilities can be fitter into a 30-60 seconds short. I’d love it. I’d really appreciate it. Have a think about it.
Before anyone goes - “why don’t you just google it?’, it’s often the problem - because I don’t know what to google. Like in my head - there’s an abundance of ideas, but there can be more or better and bigger ideas if my brand would know all of the capabilities of tools or what other people use a certain tool for even if it wasn’t made for that purpose. And as the saying goes - you don’t know what you don’t know, so it’s hard to google what you don’t know, when I try to google so,etching that I don’t know if it exists or what it’s called and I try to describe it to google, often in different languages - I usually 90% of the time end up sifting through pages of bs. And still don’t find what I was looking for. Most often I find what I was looking for from watching other people woodworking/ engineering videos 😅😂
Guys, these tips are invaluable! Especially when they eliminate measuring…such a headache. Please continue this series. Love it!
Man, these are really useful. I’m always overthinking this kind of thing. Will definitely use the first tip to get the right depth on my half laps. I’d love to see more of these tips.
I always think that math and measuring will help me, but it’s often a clever way of approaching the problem that makes everything easier and better
I'm overthinking to and this make a lot of things so much easier. Logical thinking
I think this is a very helpful series. Would love to see it continue.
😊😊😊👍
The tip for using tape as a micro adjustment: So brilliantly simple I can't believe I didn't think of it.
Thanks, I'm a hobbyist woodworker and getting my first FTG blade for dados--about a year ago--was a life-saver (no more chiseling out grooves from ATB blades).
I love this idea for an ongoing series! Keep them coming. I especially like that you take input from your viewers.
Just commenting to add my own vote to please continue this series. There are a lot of tips/tricks videos but the ones selected here hit that nice balance of extremely useful but not overly obvious.
😊👍👍
Please continue with this series. My only concern is remembering all of them in the shop! They are very, very useful.
Yeah! A helpful info graphic tip sheet would be great! (With little cartoon versions of Chris and Sean!)
I'll second that.
Fourth here 👍
I love it. I love the amount of content in a short space of time. Don't get me wrong, I like long videos as well, but if I am about to try something new, I don't always want to sort through a 30 minute video to find the trick I needed!
"The tape as a micro adjustement" - a tip that is worth it's weight in gold!
Very well explained and without any ANNOYING music. Keep up the great work.
👊
My builder is building me a house and I'm going to be doing a lot of the interior finishing. I have lots of oak boards and will be using these tips on a variety of projects. Please keep them coming. And, thank you both!!
Honestly, insanely useful stuff. ALL stuff I have NEEDED on projects and literally ALL stuff I'm going to be using on upcoming projects. Thanks guys, looking forward to more of these!!
Thank you! I am a new woodworker and can use all the help I can get. Love your channel, love your style, can't wait to get in the shop and use this to create the tables I wake up seeing in my head.
Great tips well presented. No fluff - quick and concise while still being nicely explained. More videos, please. 👍
This series is super helpful. I'm just getting started and it's nice to have some quick, easy to remember tips that have huge impact. Between this and your "Taking Math out of Woodworking" I'm feeling much more capable
Please let this not be the last episode tip and tricks. It was extremely helpful
Smart viewers! These are great tips. I'll double down on endorsing the painters tape for micro-adjustments. Sneaking up on cuts was the biggest revolution for my projects when I learned the value of it.
👍👍👍
The last? NEVER. We want more!!!
I love the router tip at around 7:15 or so. Adding the tape to move the router over just a hair to get the dado just a fraction larger for the board to fit into the slot is a great idea! Thanks for the other tips too! Great stuff!
Great tips! Thank you :D
Hiii friend
👍👍
I am new to woodworking in any serious sense. I find these simple (in the very best sense of the word) tips are so useful. Thank you for taking the time to share them 🙂
Brilliant simplicity. Several problems I had been plagued with, particularly the router dado and cutting the dado with the table saw. Thanks, I subscribed.
You guys are such an inspiration, I admire your work and follow it. Thanks for sharing. It’s because of guys like you I felt motivated to start on woodworking. Last year after COVID19 put us on isolation. Again thanks !
Very nice! Got quite some useful ones in the list :))
😊😊👍
Hooray! Thanks for sharing! I'm especially fond of that first one 😉
As a beginner, I need and appreciate EVERY tip I can find.
Please continue!
Yes please, more!
There are lots of tips out there but you guys shooting and explaining them nicely is a bonus!
The both of you have such a interesting sense of humor. Over the years I always find my self laughing in the mist of learning something new on the regular. Props on the channel guys
Hot tips. I hope the algorithm gods allow this to continue.
Since I have been at this since 1976 all of the tips were solid. One point is that the drill bit idea could present issues. Just keep a few shims handy of the appropriate thickness. Nice work, I enjoy your shows.
Hey yes, please continue with this series. I love the way the two of you explain and do woodworking. Well, there's one thing I miss: you talk about the thickness of the wood without using that funny plural.
Keep on being foureyes!
@Thomas Braun - Thicknesses?
I just discovered your channel and after watching this video, subscribed. I'm not a precision woodworker and I don't have fancy tools, so tips to work around those limitations interest me. I must say also that you guys are not only extremely talented wood workers, but also extremely talented and innovative videographers! Your use of graphics to explain your work is exceptional. Keep up the good work. Y'all are amazing!!
Skip the table saw and buy a chisel.
Love these tips, makes my woodworking easier. Keep it up guys, really appreciated, when I get further into my fun, I'll be watching you whenever there's a new one!
Love the one for the burning 🔥 marks/tapering... Hope to see more of theses.
Have a great New Year lad's
The jointer is another option.
Thanks for these great tips! Here's a product idea: shim tape. Tape that comes in precise thicknesses, like 0.010" etc. Doesn't have to be a huge roll, but it would really help in sneaking up to the precise width of a dado.
Please keep this going. I just finished cutting a couple of half laps and missed the depth and had to sand a bunch to make it look right. The half lap top made so much sense.
😊😊👍
Love this! Always find it so fascinating to be able to measure something without proper measurement tools!
This is great! I‘d love this to be a series.
My son also loves listening to you explaining this stuff. He is for months old
Sure he does ..”four”
That dado drillbit was genius. You guys are awesome. Thanks for this video
Very useful--please continue. These two guys are in my very short list of woodworking channels I watch regularly. Entertaining, and great at what they do....and this is coming from a largely hand-tool woodworker.
Yep, happy with this tips and tricks...nice to see/learn from other folks' experience and thought processes!
Love the tip on better lap joints by using the tablesaw itself ! simple but so effective
Awesome video! I love that it explains some subtleties in things that may (or may not) seem straight forward, but where people would've made a mistake if they didn't know about them (including me of course)
Thank you guys for your top notch quality videos and your very unique style of making them.
Wish you both a happy New Years eve🍻
Hyyy friend
Cutting exact width dados just keeps getting easier. Great tip! One thing I do when I need a slightly looser fit is to add a playing card to the piece needed when you make that first cut.
Oh, yes. These are simple and very smart tips -- lots of "why didn't I think of that!" in these, but - as you said - they're applicable for lots of cutting tools. They also appear to be really quick and fool-resistant. Thanks!
Loved the tape as micro adjustment tip, and all were very helpful.
Awesome, guys! Some of these I knew or kind of knew but it’s great to have these concise lists for when you think of it and you want to refer back to the video but you can’t think which project it was associated with. Definitely hope this is just the first of an Ongoing series. 👍🏻
I’m halfway through and all of these have been useful to me so far. Keep these videos coming.
Thanks for gracing us with your tips
Tips: yes please!
Keep them coming. I will be using the crosslap tuning tip very soon.
Very helpful. Keep'em coming for sure!
I love these guys for making a fun way to do tips in woodworking Thank you all. I look for more tips and tricks from you guys in the future!
Yes please continue this series, it's fantastic!
This is some advanced technique. No sloppy work here.
New to wood working. I cannot tell you how helpful and inspiring your videos are. Thank you for this.
Great idea guys, Love the format always great to get other views on doing woodworking tasks. dig all your videos. Have a great New Year’s cheers!!!
this is great! thank you for this. hope the series continues.
Love the tips. Please make a series and playlist.
My passion is to make beautiful pieces and I’m not there yet. You’re one of those channels I consider at the top of the heap in that category so your tips are much appreciated. Thank you!
Whittier! I grew up there! Makes me all warm and fuzzy thinking about my hometown. Glad to see you guys adding to its history and commerce. I also liked the tips. I’m thinking about getting back into woodworking.
Yes continue this series.
Thanks for the tips. I've used the tape technique and it works well. I especially like half lap--perfect and simple.
My 5 Cents 😃
Yes, this is a great platform to present time saving & problem solving ideas. I think it's great how you not only said the name of the person who submitted the idea, but also referenced their other info like instagram, etc. which they gave. (Within reason of course...lol...)
Putting their info in the vid info might be a great way of start a network of craftsmakers helping carpenters, craftsmakers, woodworkers, builders, propmakers, novices, weekend warriors, etc.
The only thing that jumped out at me is you both seemed stiff, perhaps slightly nervous. An idea I had actually kinda showed up towards the end and that was when you were both together in the shot.
I get that some guys are too serious and are afraid of a bit of humor, the NO FLUFF guys. Man chill a little, stress is a killer. What I think might help just a little is for each of you to 'explain' the tip to the 'other'. When trying out the tip sent in how did it fly? What adjustments did you try to help it work. This isn't making it look like the 'other guy' is clueless, it's an opportunity for the 'other guy' to occasionally say something's to confirm or question things.
Remember, some people watching aren't going to be as knowledgeable and will need the info maybe 1.5 times to get it. Everybody had some one helping in the beginning. This could be that chance for some.
OH...AND...It's been shown that people take in info better when they are relaxed...hence the lightening up just a tad will be USEFUL. 😁
I agree. Loosen a bit, but the info was useful and wonderful and you guys seem knowelegable. Keep up the good work.
That tape micro adjustment is a surefire winner. Thanks for posting. 👍
Really enjoyed this video, great tips that can be used in regular basis, quick, precise.
Thanks for starting this. Awesome stuff.
So simple yet so smart! Thank you!
Great Tips! Thank you guys!
Thanks for posting this! Excellent presentation!
My favorite thing about woodworking magazines is the collection of tips they do. I'm ALWAYS interested in learning how other people have solved or simplified the infinite tasks of woodworking / making.
I dig the new series. Thanks for all the great tips along with all the other great content
Thanks! Yes any more tips are appreciated in advance 👍🏼
GREAT idea. Clear, to the point. Pure protein knowledge. Thank you!
The tape trick for dados is awesome!
Not just good tips, but good presentation too. Not over the top, without the usual narcissism. Well done gentlemen.
Absolutely do more of these!
Great tips and a tour de force on the many applications of the humble shim. It's a good example of how certain basic engineering principles propagate throughout engineering disciplines. Almost like 'axioms'
Just one of things I love about woodworking.
Thx for sharing.
These were useful, please keep them coming. Thank you.
Don’t stop. These are great. Especially for us noobs who were just learning.
These are great helpful things to try and remember. Please keep them coming TY
Phillips half lap tip is very handy. Then again all the tips are awesome.
That was a lovely set of tips! Very comforting and informative. Cheers,Rob
Excellent tips! Thanks! Hope I’ll remember all of them when needed.
Thanks for sharing, I don't think I had seen any of these tips before. I especially appreciate your tip about the drill bit for the tenons!
Thanks SquareSpace !!!
Great tips, especially for a beginner like myself! Thanks!
Tape method tip for cutting tapers was spot on! Keep the tips coming. Good stuff!
Thank for this, I needed the tape as a micro adjustment for this weekend!
Very useful tips. I can't wait to see more of these videos from you guys!
Dope series guys! I’m into it! Keep making more!
