    You left out a very, VERY important "tip: WEAR EYE PROTECTION!!! The saw - any saw - will throw dust and small chips at your face. If you've got your eye on the cut line, you WILL get that debris in your eyes. WEAR EYE PROTECTION!!

    Don't want to buy a nail gun to put up trim around my doors.. wonder if these would work or if they might just be a bit too big?

    The black diamond mark is called TJi (truss joist interval). @ 19-3/16”. The importance of measuring in feet and inches is so that the measurements can be easily transferred to a drafting scale. Drafting scales are in feet and inches.

    Flip ripping on the table saw is safe if you turn off the saw while you flip. Pull ripping is not safe...too easy to bind the blade.

    The old saying practice makes perfect is true. I've gotten pretty good at following the straight line, especially on shorter cuts. Long cuts are of course more difficult. One problem with corded saws is the cord getting caught on something. And then having to stretch out on really long cuts. I've about stopped using my corded saw in favor of the cordless. Problem with that is a dead battery. Extra batteries are nice so I keep two fully charged on hand. I do keep a straight edge on hand and use it sometimes. It's an aluminum two piece tool. Each piece is 4 foot and can be connected for an 8 foot. Have to clamp it to the board being cut so I don't use it often. Only when I want to be sure I get a really straight cut.

    I don't like using my impact driver for drilling either. I also have both drill and impact drivers so I don't need to keep changing the bits as you said. I actually have two sets, a Ryobi and a DeWalt set. I don't use them often so the cheaper brand tools work well for me. The DeWalt set I got for a bargain price so was about the same cost as the Ryobi. The Ryobi is a little stronger but the DeWalt is a little faster. Both are pretty good.

    Great examples, particularly the pulling vs pushing and multiple points of contact. For most things, I use the half round blade which seems to allow me to not focus on the exact orientation of the blade to the work, less chatter and a straighter cut.

    you are using the wrong bit you should be using the hammer chisel bit you can also use the masonry bit to drill holes centimeters apart to do the job more efficiently

    Just for an interesting contrast between materials being discussed and commercial-use treated lumber: I built a shade cloth frame from creosote-treated recycled utility pole cross members. I had previously used them as a garden border for at least ten years in direct contact with the ground with no sign of rot. The down side to using this treated lumber is it stinks and it rotted the shade cloth in about a year where it was in direct contact with the plastic cloth. I plan to line the upper surface of the wood with aluminum flashing and replace the cloth.

    Sanding! I use it for sanding, mostly old paint out of corners or other places you get years of build up. Ive had the original Dremel model for literally 22 years, it's still running. I'm going to get one of the Dewalt's though for the fast change, because that rocks. ❤

    Thank you so much, I have many old school ways from learning about automotive paint tinting. I also understand the appropriate way to tint This type of paint. When it comes to house paint? It is very different technique. I have crashed a little with latex. Learning the concept of latex and oils such as stain as well as paints. Is crucial for anyone involved especially for professionals. I will look forward for any other videos on this subject. Once again thanks so much Mr. Carpenter.👍

    I've using a lot of palletwood recently, for outdoor projects like bird nesting boxes, bug hotels etc. While the pallets are free to me the wood is not! There's a lot of work breaking them down, denailing etc, but that's part of the fun for me as a hobbyist. Occasionally you can score some nice timber but it's hard won!

    What do you think of Olympic Elite water based stain? They claim a 25 year warranty which is probably a bogus claim to allude that the stain will last for that long.
