I'm just a guy that wants to do more projects. Unfortunately I do not have a dedicated shop and my garage must be able to park cars in it every night.
So I am going to be organizing the shop the best I can, building jigs to help with all my other projects that I need to do.
Not sure how often I'll be able to add to this channel, but I'll do my best to record all the work I do. Being a somewhat of a beginner, especially in woodworking I hope to show all of you that if I can to it, so can you. That's what BronkBuilt is all about.

I was looking for a video to remind myself of the 345 math method. Thank you!
You're welcome. Thanks for watching.
I got an F1 error I'll try this for a possible fix
Let us know how it turns out.
Hi I from Uk what kind of adapter needed for because here 240voltage and the item is 110v and 450wats ?
I apologize but it has been over a decade since I've traveled to the UK so I'm not sure what converter you would need. It would be best to contact the manufacturer for information. I will say I still use this and for the money I think it is still the best bargain.
No clear coat finish?
I did. I don't remember the video as it was a while ago but I did put a couple coats of poly once the paint fully cured. I may not have showed it on the video. I always do that on my corn hole boards.
The reason the side screws were tight, is because it had steel screws screwed into aluminum. They were starting to seize. Should have used anti seize on them.
Interesting. Thank you
Awesome design!
Thank you. Still use it every time.
My Dodge Caravan could haul a 4x8 sheet no problem. My 87 Dakota won’t fit a 4x8 so I guess the Caravan is a truck but the Dakota is not?
Exactly! I try my best to not be a tool snob, or a vehicle snob. Actually, mini vans get a very bad rap. Compared to SUV's, they are less expensive in pretty much every way and I know people that have bought a minivan over a truck for the exact reason you bring up. I would bet that loading into the minivan is easier as well since it will be lower to the ground.
I was going to tell you to buy a regular cab long box but yeah. Not very constructive or original.
One or two times... But thanks for watching.
Your approach to big Jenga is better than most on KZread: safety, rules, and real advice. Nice job! Subbed.
Thank you. I'll have more vids soon
I'm so confused about how to do pocket screws. 😢
Don't be. With a jig they are easy. DM me on my BronkBuilt Facebook page with struggling questions and I'll try and walk you through it.
Easy way to ensure correct polarity is lease magnets attached to each other. Pop inn hole and slide off. For mating, fix 1 magnet, place single magnet correct polarity. Drop of CA glue in mating piece. Press over magnet and slide off
Great idea, thanks!
Mine is powering on and when I hit the button to start it sounds like when your solenoid clicks on your car engine. If you could help me out I’d be forever grateful sir. Times are hard
Have you taken it apart like my video shows? If you leave the circuit board plugged in you can press the start button on it to see if it starts. That will tell you if it is a button issue or something else. How this makes sense.
Just bought this to spray a new front door and WOW is all that I can say, worked fantastic. I own several HVLP (ones to spray automobiles) and an airless. Wife chose a very dark blue color and we decided to use SW Emerald Urethane trim that is thick! I originally was going to use my primer HVLP but would have thin past 10% to give the atomization that I wanted and lightened the blue so been wanting something like this to bridge the gap of my sprayers (airless creates way too much overspray). Sprayed the first coat straight out of the can, worked great but just made me nervous because I wasn't getting the spray conditions that make me happy even though it leveled off really nice. Additional coats I added less 5% water and wow just wow did this thing spray fantastic and leave an amazing finish! Best $79 I ever spent and going to spray my shutters next with it. Cleanup wasn’t that bad and if you are new to spraying buy extra paint and get ready to play with settings to get you your ideal condition, I Highly recommend this sprayer!
Yeah. I doubt there are far better sprayers or there, but for the cost and bang for the buck this is hard to beat. Still use mine as well.
Your instructional video is far better. Your voice is clear and distinctive. You don't talk like your JACKED UP ON 4 REDBULLS , as do other people on videos.
Thank you. I do try and keep myself to only 3 redbulls at a time :)
@@BronkBuilt LMAO, GOOD ON YA!, If ya exceed 3, you may start telling Realitives off!
Great idea. I have exactly the same truck except it’s a different color.👍
I still use it every time I get sheet goods.
Great job dad!
Thanks. He's been out of college about 5 or 6 years and he still had this and still in great shape after half a dozen moves.
Do you have the dimensions of the piece you cut from the paint stick? Did you remove the 2 arm pieces that the piece snapped off from?
Sorry, didn't remember the size. Needs to be long enough to reach button on the circuit board. I didn't remove anything except the piece that broke. Hope this helps.
I ratchet strap them to under the tailgate, to my hitch mount eye holes. It provides the downward force required for strong holding that your eye holds won't, being as they are on bed bottom. Size of stack also determines holding force.
Cool. Sounds like you can fit them between the wheel wells. I can not.
You’re the best 😊
Thanks. Glad it helped.
You and I have different definitions of "Easy"
Give it a try. I admit I'm not the best a making videos so I may have made it look harder than it is. It really is not that hard.
Great video man.
Thank you!
FYI, none of the links you attached, work. Security threat issued.
Thanks for letting me know. I'll check them.

FANTASTIC SUGGESTIONS! Thank you!
Thanks for stopping by. I do appreciate the comment.
As soon as he said NOT DIE I was all in
Thank you
This is a great video, but I noticed several differences. I suspect both the helical head and the planer have been tweaked since you upgraded you machine. I'm writing this in 2024, and I bought my planer back in 2022. The first problem was that I could not remove the 2nd/larger pulley with the cutter head still mounted. I could not use the gear puller because there wasn't enough space behind the pulley to grip it. Without removing the larger pulley, I was still able to remove the lock mechanism and the plate from behind it. I ran into another problem removing the cutter head (more on that in a sec), but once it was out, then I could use the gear puller and I found freaking loctite around the pin! I recommend scraping it out before reinstalling. The second problem was one I saw mentioned in the comments here, which is that the locating pins are too long and the old cutter head won't fit through the housing. The steel the pin is made off was too hard for my hacksaw or files to cut. The only tool I found that worked was a dremel with an aluminum oxide grinder, but it worked very well. The last point I'd like to make is that the hollow dowel is a golden tool for this project. I cut holes in hardwood scraps and stacked them, but most of the split after a few whacks and they'd get caught up on different obstacles as the new cutter head gradually advanced. It got home eventually, but a good hollow dowel would've been a very elegant solution.
Oh wow! I'm sorry this was your experience. Not sure what changed and certainly don't know why. It really was not hard and now it seems to be a pain.
No worries! I'd taken your advice and borrowed a puller, so once I got it out it was smooth sailing 👍
Thanks!
Thank you very much. Glad it helped.
Nice work!
Thank you!
The dryer is the same but it powers and did beep but doesn't run. The timer on the countdown goes down but we get no running. It says sensoring but what is wrong?
I'm sorry but I'm not sure. Are you saying that it appears to start and when goes through the timer and senses, but the sun does not turn? Does it heat up?
Thank you Dale.
You are welcome!
This is amazing. We are going to do this for next year. Where did you find the decorative pieces.? You mentioned that you cut them out with the razor blade but what template did you use? Also we can use electricity how would we make the candle with an electric light? This video is 5 years old so I hope that you are doing well and in good spirits and I hope that you still have Roxy.
Thanks for watching and yes, we are all good and Roxy now has a step brother Roscoe. I recall I got the template from Michael's but not 100% sure. For electric lights I would do very much the same. I would look for 5 separate light cords, each with 1 bulb. If you can't find that, then look on my channel for the Christmas tree yard decoration video. In that one I show you how to make a light cord as long as you want and with as many bulbs as you want. I'd mount the bulbs the same and have the cord run down the inside of the pipe and out through a side of the stand. This is still used at the outside church each year.
Great video! Gonna put it too use in the morning! I heard the plastic piece snap when I tried to start mine, so I knew what it was! Your video was exactly what I was looking for to repair it! Also, thanks for not having annoying music playing!
Good luck! Let me know how it goes. On not having music... I feel I'm annoying enough so I don't need the annoying music :)
Thanks for the video!
Hope it helped!
So, you've put a diamond on a turd. 😂 it's a decent little planer. By the time you add this $500 upgrade, you're invested enough to buy a much better tool.
That is not true at all. Before I made this investment I did A LOT of searching for a better planer with a helical cutter head and at that time there simply was not one that was even close to the same price of my planer + helical head. Closest I found was still about $550 more. Would it have been a better planer? Probably. We all have budgets we need to stick in and at the time this was in my budget. I even searched FB market plance and CL. This was several years ago so now it may not be the same situation as there may be a lot more planers that come with the helical head standard. I don't remember what I paid for the helical head, I may have mentioned it in the video, but honestly don't remember. I don't remember it was $500 but possibly was. I'm still using this diamond on a turd and for my use it works extremely well, even on curly maple.
Awesome video! This is exactly what I needed to take my top panel off. I found this is exactly what happened to my Cabrio.
Awesome! Glad it helped.
@@BronkBuiltQuick follow-up...what size bit did you use to drill the hole? Thanks again!
@@blown22 sorry I don't remember. I want to say 3/8 but not sure.
@BronkBuilt No worries. I used a small bit on a Dremel, then bored it out to a snug fit and glued it on. It's drying now. This was actually better fit than a circular hole. I'll let you know tomorrow how it worked. Thanks again!
@@BronkBuilt I placed the piece in there snug, and then the circuit board (but not the white pastic cover), then tested it. It seemed like it may have barely pushed the button on the circuit board (weak click) on the first push, but then it didn't make contact from the second push onward. So I popped the circuit board back off and the piece I had fashioned was pushed out of from the two gray plastic prongs instead of being flush/level like it had originally been. So now I need to ask you a few more questions: (1) Should I retry this, but also attach the white cover and 3 screws first - would that make any difference? (2) Do I need to actually glue the button to the inside of the cover? (3) Maybe a dumb question, but how thick was the paint stirring stick you used?. My wood piece looks to be 2 or maybe 3mm thick; a little thicker than 1/8", but thinner than 3/16". It looks pretty close to yours. Thanks for your continued help on this. I really do appreciate it.
Did the same thing. Down here in SC the builders are not so good. We just moved in paid the builder to go away. I have the pantry, and the master closet to do. Never did this before.
I've been out of KZread land for almost a year now as we have been building our new house. Well, we designed it and hired a builder to build it. We had them leave all built-in areas empty. Pantry, closets, etc. Even had them NOT install a mantel on the fireplace and a few other things. That and my day job took all my time. We moved in about a week ago and now I'm starting all my projects and bookcases/shelving units are on the list as well as many others. I did film a lot so hopefully I'll get time to edit things as I probably have enough for about 6-8 videos as well as all my new projects on my list. I did finish our powder room vanity and mirror. Did those in walnut. Not perfect but still love them. We are in GA and as of about 3 months ago our builder and I are no longer talking. Just turned out, in my opinion, to not be very customer focused and would not take responsibility for anything. Happy he is out of the picture now.
Need to make some pantry shelving. Do you have any ready made plans?
Sorry I don't. Interesting you mention this as we are very close to moving into our new house and I had the builder do nothing, not even wire shelving in our pantry and closets so I have it on my ToDo list once we move in.
Thank you very much. I used this exact build today and it worked great.
Great to hear! Many years later and I am still using it. Never again will I lift an entire sheet to load or unload.
Why is everyone doing it wrong..takes 2 min to slide three 8' 2×4s ,let me rest on tail gate and GET TO WORK!!!
I don't think you know the definition of the words wrong and everyone. The word wrong the way you are using it would mean that doing it this way does not successfully work or meet the objective of the task. Since my way of doing this actually does work and successfully meets the objective, that makes your statement incorrect, or wrong. The word everyone means not a single other person does it correctly. I will give the benefit of doubt here and assume you mean do it your way. By saying everyone you are saying that not a single other person on the face the planet does it the way that you do. While I have not asked every single person on the face of this planet, I'm pretty sure at least 1 other person does it the way you do. In fact, I believe there are other comments on this comment board that that say they do it the way you suggest. This makes your state incorrect, or wrong, again. What you mean is why do some people do it different than you since the way you do it is the one and only way that something should be done. There is no more innovation that needs to be done, you have broke the code and your way is 100% the best and only way it should be done until the end of time. This takes me 30 seconds which is faster than your 2 minutes which would have you getting to work 1.5 minutes faster. Think of the extra money you will have earned being able to charge an extra 1.5 minutes of your hourly rate. Also, my way never has me lift any sheet over the closed tailgate. If fact, I never even have to lift a single sheet completely off the cart at once. In fact, I never have to lift even 1 side of the sheet over about 4 feet high. My truck does not have 4 feet between wheel wells so it would go in crooked. We all know that the veneers on these sheets are very thin and very suseptible to chipping. By having the sheet rest against the front of the bed at an angle greating increases the chance of said veneer to chip. Doing it the way I do that will never happen. Loading my way also greatly increases the ease of unloading. Loading it my way also gives the opportunity to very easily break the sheets down with a cirular saw or track saw without even unloading at all. If you go through the comments you will see that others have suggested other ways to do this. This is just the way that I do it. I have continued to do this for years and for me, it is the best way as I can load as many sheets as my truck can handle by myself without lifting a full sheet all at once at any time. I appreciate you watching my video, which I do not get paid much for (This video has made me about $1.58 since I have uploaded it). I appreciate you commenting on my video which I did in my own time which if you look at the comments you will see others that have liked my idea, as well as others that offered much more friendly critiques than you did. I still wish you the best and am for you that you are so much better than me in every way.
I really appreciate your video, this is exactly the problem my Whirlpool drier had and I was able to fix it following your instructions :) I used the clip that comes in the bread (cut to the right size) instead of the piece of wood you used.
Glad it helped. Great idea with the bread clip!
I disconnected the wire from board - how wo I reconnect - it's not going back on the probgs
If you pulled the wires out of the plugs while trying to pull the plugs out I'm sorry I'm not sure. It will probably require some soldering.
oh rare earth magnets... for a rare joint... That joke too me way tooooo long to understand lol
I do try. Like I tell both my sons, sometimes my jokes are very sophisticated and complex, other times they are just about sounds the body makes.
My man!! If you only knew how many of us you helped get a little you know what you. Your like a pimp or a marriage counselor (which ever way you see it) 5 years later still saving dryers and relationships! Thanks a million!
Ha! You are welcome and I'm putting on my fuzzy people hat with yellow feather about with my big gold bling.
Thanks for the follow-up. I like the tie-down plank, but for sheet goods I'd probably just attach a strap to a forward tie-down in the bed before loading and run it out the tailgate, load, then run the strap to another forward tie down on the opposite side. No worries regarding those "get a real truck" commenters. My Canyon is most certainly a real truck, but one that is easy to park in a normal-sized spot and doesn't require a step stool to enter. Seriously, people should drive whatever they like and let others do the same.
Exactly! Thank you!
Power trowel.
Thank you! I had no idea what it was called.
God bless you! I would have tossed the entire project after the bungie cord discovery! Fantastic example of tenacity! It's adorable cute, but way out of my wheelhouse to even attempt.
That did cross my mind for sure, but it is all about how to handle the mistakes. At least with me there are mistakes every project.
Is the planer more quiet with the new cutter head?
Quieter? Yes. Quiet? Not even close. You'll still definitely need hearing protection and right now I'm in a subdivision with closely packed houses so I only use it between 9am and 8pm as my neighbors have small kids.
Shelves can't sag if everything is one piece! 😂 What would you suggest to "beef up" adjustable shelves?
Same thing as I did here. Put a 1.5" - 2.0" face on each shelf. That will make it very strong. I've done this plenty, even with 1" face and never had an issue. Don't go crazy and put 100 pounds on the shelf or make the shelf 6' wide ;)
Thank you so much!!! I got it working thanks to you! 🎉😁
That is awesome! Glad it helped.
Had the same problem. I followed your instructions to the tee, and the dryer is operational once again. Great video! Thanks!
Great to hear! Always nice getting more life out of our appliances, without the cost of a repair person.
Great video! Can't find those hinges on the Rockler site.. Any chance. you could provide a link to them?
