That's high praise, thank you John. I was concerned that the quality of the early videos would turn purple away, but I think it's important to show people that even if you have no experience, like me, when starting out, you can make functional stuff. Oh...and that it takes time to make s cool space 😅 A good 5 years or so 🤣 So glad you enjoyed it!

As somebody who is also in a one car garage, its always interesting watching what others do. I think its kinda a different experience being in a small space. I think its mostly it reinforcing a good line of thinking, everything has to have its place, a purpose, and be thought out. I just abandoned the car has to be able to fit in there mentality to get a table saw to properly fit. I dream of a big shop, and I think having dealt with a small one for years will really help when I set that one up.

Great video, I like it. However, I would've setup miter station differently. You are holding "waste" portion of cut material. The piece that you need can (eventually will) kick back because its between stop block and saw. Nothing is supporting it. Or you need to change the way you cut with miter saw. Just my observation and suggestion. Other then that I enjoyed the video (without popcorn)

@FixitFingers

4 ай бұрын

That's an excellent suggestion. I can put the stop block on the other side, I just only mounted tape on the right as that gives me a longer reach. Maybe I should learn to cut left handed. I am usually very conscious of letting the blade stop before lifting, but you are right, it's a risk that can be mitigated... Let's see what I can do. Cheers!

So how the heck did you end up with a Bosch axial glide? I have the 12 inch. Its the best miter saw you can get unless you're a Kapex fan. So how do you have that and no table saw? You could get the Delta table saw thats about $600 US dollars (or somewhere around that) and have a pretty great table saw for the price. The fence is awesome! So just wondering?

Cheers Sean! What I like most about this long form is my older videos which only got a few hundred views in 5 years, have now reached so many folks. (and surprisingly re-watching them, they are not _as bad_ as you remember them 😅 That Galaxy S3 and S7 they were filmed on was actually was OK video for the time). We have a wealth of great makers down here, spoilt for choice with such a small population. I know I follow at least one Texan, Harki from Longhorn Workshop. Firstly the Axial Glide. Fortunately, I have a good government job, so the price of tools is not usually the issue for me, it's the space. A traditional sliding mitre would never have fit with the long rails, so I was lucky that a mate of mine was upgrading from the 10" to the 12" Bosch and sold me his old one. I nearly bought the DeWalt 10" Jobsite saw many times over the years, but when it came to the checkout, I just never really _needed_ it that much, and it was going to be a struggle to fit it in so I ran with my Kreg jigs for years. It was a decision that ultimately paid off, as my channel grew off the back of getting stuff done with limited tools, and eventually, when SawStop dropped their baby CTS saw, the woodworking store I partner with (Carbatec) decided to send me one out. It really is the perfect table saw for my tiny shop. Hopefully, that wasn't a spoiler and you've made it to the end already! A new hack-and-slash video is dropping today... much shorter this time.

@FixitFingers I built a mini "carport shed/workshop office so trying to figure out designs that I can walk in and out without bumping my head or hand or leg 🤣 but this metal shed doesn't have much mounting points has a falling apart cupboard inside which is huge

I was an Ultramarie player, but while I still have the army (about 5000 points worth by 3rd Edtion rules) I haven't really broken them out much since uni (too many years ago!) except for a few games of 'Kill Team' recently :) I miss playing, just too many hobbies and not enough time!

Yeah the early ones are a bit harsh 😅I get more relaxed with the music choices as I get better at editing the videos. Cheers for tuning in, if you are interested try skipping through a few and hopefully the style matures as I go 😉

Did you ever discover why youtube said they were going to ban the vid you mentioned? I dont think ive even heard you swear so cant imagine what you did wrong!

Until you physically run out of space to store them, ;)

mate if your measurements are out that much that you need to shim it but actually shim because you use a spirit level then you have no idea how to level a project and keep it square during the building process. sorry mate but watching you spirit level and shim when you were building made me roll my eyes. Always keep the project square during the build. what you did put your job out of square badly. A spirit level is only used at the completion of a project to make sure it is horizontal and can be achieved with levelling feet . 😊
