Making lots of molding for baseboards in my house
woodgears.ca/home/making_baseb...
This was making over 100m (300 ft) of molding, involving lots of planing and routing. I made a homemade power feeder to help with the job.

What I love about Matthias's videos is that, no matter how mundane the title, you are always going to see something brilliant and unexpected. In this case, the power feeder, made of a drill and a roller skate wheel. Really looking forward to the next video focusing on that!

Well you don't "get" anything, you are allowed to buy one from them when you've reached the goal.
Brother...I'm aware this was posted 5 years ago. Though I just happened to come across this video. You are extremely efficient and Creative. Seriously. I Like how you addressed the screw wholes, with those plugs. I stay busy with flooring, no carpet or tile. Just epoxy, staining, concrete overlays. We could barter...turn the workshop floors into something different. That is one of the aspects of what I do, that I absolutely LOVE. You would make a great neighbor. 🤓🤓 Just to learn from someone like you would he a Blessing.
Two videos later: "the power feeder was nice but I had to walk to put the boards into place, so I made a jig to receive and place the boards for me" 2000 videos later: "my secondary workshop is autonomously making shelves and selling them online, today I use the revenue from that to build a third workshop that will autonomously maintain and repair itself and the secondary workshop" 10000 years later: "Archaeologists find cave containing wood-based shelf-making automatons from an unknown civilization, still running"

You are something else man, you always come up with the coolest ideas. You remind me of my grandpa, he was a master craftsmen he built an amazing home in Sacramento California out of telephone poles and he even had a real train that the kids could ride around the property it was so fun. The house is incredible so many cool features. He started building it in the 40’s and finished in the 80’s so one could imagine all of the cool things he did. I learned a lot from him and my dad and step mom.

You can address that question to the DeWalt service representative that repaired my thickness planer. Because I just took him at his word. He said don't do it, so I don't. But if I had to hazard a guess I can well imagine the boards could go through at different speeds and that would stress the mechanism. Sort of like throwing a wrench into a gear train? Can you wrap your pea brain around that concept?

Hey Matthias, great video. The base came out great , and I agree, the power feeder is a big part of that. Looking forward to the video about it.
Kick ass video! 1st time viewer here. I was planning to refinish my oak veneer baseboards, painting them white, but as I was pulling them off I saw how crappy and cheap they are so figured I might just buy some that are a lot nicer and already painted. Then I thought, wait, maybe I should just buy some pine planking and make some myself. Why not? I have a jointer, a table saw, a router table, etc. etc., then I saw that I can get 80 feet for less than $120 already primed and concluded that would be the best route. I have plenty of other tasks I can spend that time on.
