Helpful - thank you!
Got one after seeing you video ... made one modification. Got a stainless steel fender washer that was 2 1/2" outside diameter and maybe 1/16" thick, used silicone sealant to secure it to the bottom of the string head after sanding both surfaces. This will make the string head last forever. Did this with my old Toro over two years ago. The bump ball is the wearable part of the string head, this does away with the wear
David, you should also offer Greenhouse builds. They’re very simple to build and you only need greenhouse plastic and a staple gun.
I bought bth the miter saw and the stand, but I'm having issues with joining the two because i cant get the screw under both the front and back of the rapid tool mount clamp. Any suggestions?
"Honing", not sharpening. That's a detail that I hadn't thought of! Just like using a butcher's steel to touch up a knife, which doesn't remove steel, but simply straightens the edge so it will work again. I was certainly intimidated by the prospect of resharpening the blades in my handheld power planer, but I'm also frustrated by the loss of performance lately. I was looking up how to do this, but this video makes it much more doable.
is using treated lumber for garden beds harmful? they may not be, but lots of people think so...
I have my Kobalt saw for over 10yrs and works perfectly however that shadow line and clamp is sweet.I may get this one! Thks for review
nice the breaker bar was a good idea you dont have to strop the tank i did one recently pretty much the same as you but stropped the tank one guy i saw used a piece of galv pipe on meter long to start turning h valve and that worked well end of the day as long as remove the valve
Buying cedar pickets solves all the picket problems
Just bought one and after about 20 little cuts the saw stop working. The light is on, but the saw don't run. Will return within window.
Thanks for the review! I am considering purchasing one. Could you please let me know the length from end to end of the base? Need to check if it would fit in my existing miter saw mobile station.
What I did over 35 years ago in Southern California, where there are termites. I dug post holes about every 8' put in a galvanized pole in concrete. (Drill holes in the poles before installing them using a drill press. Save you a lot of time.) Then I sandwiched the posts between red wood 2 x4s. Attached stringers and my 'pickets.' (I made a herring boned type pattern which took forever...) What this does is lift all the wooden parts off the ground. The posts never rot or get chewed. Has held up great for 35 years. I did wash it down once and reapplied an exterior wood coating (not polyurethane, more like a re moisturizer.) I put the rough side on my neighbor's side. The sun will rake right down along the fence. That side looks amazing... So set up a couple of patches and see what you like. If you just do it on something that moves, you don't have to sit around waiting on the sun, just move your test patch. And the thing about pickets? They don't have to be uniform, just close. You'll noticed if the top is uneven, or if they cockeyed, but you will never notice if you cut out little pockets on the side (if there is some space between the pickets). The repetition evens it all out. My herring bone pattern was a pain because the fence was on a slope. I was half way finished before I figured out how to precut more than one board at a time. The gaps? With butt joints you will get gaps. If you don't want them, and I didn't on my fence, you have to make lap joints or tongue and groove. Lap joints with a table saw and maybe a dado blade would be really easy to do. And give them some space. As the green wood dries it shrinks, but when it rains soft wood can expand across the grain 6 - 8% or more. (Haven't looked this up in a while.) If they warp it would be better to have the stringer closer to the top... but we only learn this later. I love white cedar. I once bought every piece the lumberyard had. They ordered it, the whole pile was all over the place with warping, but the wood looked great. They were selling it cheap to get rid of it. I bought some, went home, made something with it, loved it, but also found that if was nailed down the warping was so weak it laid flat and stayed flat. I've got a 14' table and a large deck. And yeah gate latch hardware is still limited....
Incessant-music treated learning videos are toxic to the brain. Good bye.
I bought this saw and on my first day there were sparks coming out of the motor. Is this normal?
I think you left out some critical steps. Safety. Gas. Removal
People want to know how to remove the valve - we all know how to empty the gas.

Is Pressure Treated Wood Toxic in Garden Beds? - The Definitive Answer ua-cam.com/video/tQh09pJ-M_0/v-deo.html
Great video, and it never occurred to me to level the beds, although it should because machines always need calibration. Thank you
Im thinking of getting the liquid version, maybe paste, stick my shop vac in the shoes, hose clamp it down, then put sealant along the seam of the sole and shoe. In theory it would suck it into wherever it needs. More often than not boots all leak in the same place
Easy way to remember which way the blade goes The branding always goes facing you so you can read it. Whether you have a left sided or right sided blade you want to be able to read the brand and the information on the blade whether it's a DeWalt blade Diablo or even the blade that comes in the box with your tool you should be able to read it once it's installed.
Nice
For $59 as a kit it’s pretty solid. I bought this saw 5 years ago. Still good. If you go slow you can rip 3 stacked sheets of plywood no problem. Rip any 2by no problem. Just let the tool work.
Thanks for the video..
Thanks trying to make a foldable bed this is the easiest thanks, so helpful ❤❤
Thank you so much David this was exactly what I needed. Very thorough and great demonstration. I’ll be looking for a dedicated brad nailer to cut down on the wood filling and sanding I need to do on base boards and trim.
Just got one of these four years old for 35 bucks! Only came with the blower and the tube. I don’t care. I don’t use the vacuum part anyway. I have a gasoline powered walk behind yard vacuum powered by 4.5 hp lawnmower engine. Just needed something to blow off my deck, my ramp and the driveway.. I was quite impressed when I started this thing for a four year-old $35 machine. Works quite well!
Good info! Sometimes you can adjust the depth of the nail mark on cheaper nailers by adjusting the regulator on the compressor; that’s how I do it.
True that that can work. I personally was just never happy with the consistency of that method.
In my situation the depth was adjusted correctly but like David said it’s the larger piston in the combo stapler/nailer that was the root cause of the problem. This left the larger imprint in the trim requiring more work to fill and sand.
The trellis you were showing i actually thought it was a movable chicken run 😊 which would be a great idea because they need protection from predators and I spend good money on my chickens 😂 thank you for the valuable information ❤
Great video... Super thorough!!!.... I have a question. Can you use the Pwr Core 20V on this 5.5 Circular Saw and use the same charger as the 12V?
No you can’t.
I really like your video, but I think your selling them Way too cheap. On the $700.00 you sold, how much was the actual cost to build them ? Treated 2x4s and 4x4s are pretty expensive.
Question I bought an air Brad nailer from harbor freight and no matter the setting it leaves large oversized dents in the baseboards. Does this Bauer brad-nailer leave bad dents or just small dents the size of the nail itself.
I actually made a video in direct response to your question. Here it is! ua-cam.com/video/k7GD7KJACeY/v-deo.html
@@DavidCanMakeThat thank you
Such a shame skills don't do this in the uk. For some reason there range is poor over here
I needed this information!
That outfeed is god awful. I have this and it only catches maybe 50% of shavings and stops up. I’ll spend the extra money and get the $600 dewalt next time or go with a delta floor model
Can you cut a 4x4 in one cut? thanks
Yes
Hi! Newbie here! I saw your review and just purchased one! The 20v battery that came with it quickly died! Turned out to be defective. Can you use 40v instead of 20v? I saw one UA-cam channel do it. Thanks 🙏
No. You can’t.
I wish you all the best. Good video
My neighbor got this with our manuals. Anyone has it
I get my pallets from a metal stamping business which means 8 foot long pallets out of hardwood. They don’t fit in my suv so I have to break them down in the businesses driveway. I’m pretty good with the prybar but I bet that tool is faster!
So thankful for these ideas I have so much scrape and hardware at my work I can basically do it all for free which in todays bullshit is so much better then buying steel and hardware
I just ordered it! Thanks for a great review!
Keep up the great work.
Picket or paling fence? The title of the video is the 11th i guess
I’ve had that same saw since 2019. I’ve had ran alot of small saws (logger) and I use this saw during hurricane Helene clean up and let me tell you I probably cut over 100 trees. Never skip a beat. It revs up so much higher than others.
I don’t care how rich you are if you buy a chair for that much money you’re a freaking idiot
And I don’t care who made it. It’s just a chair and it’s not even that nice looking matter-of-fact It looks pretty fragile.
Things I do to reduce snipe: 1. Setup beds correctly 2. Use a sled 3. Use a bed extension 4. Use rollers on out and in feed 5. The biggest improvement I do is thickness boards that are longer than I need so I can cut snipe off if it happens.
I didn't even realize there was a depth stop on it 😂 thank you very much
All I can say is keep plugging away you can’t succeed if you don’t try
I wish I could do this… but over 150 listings on fb just in my small town! Everyone is making these 😢
Because this is an older model, some Lowes stores are selling this extremely cheap. I got one today brand new in the box for 130 dollars. You won’t see it for that price online, but go to a lowes and ask them to search item # 221857 (this is the item number for this planer in Lowes’s system) and you might find a deal.

I just realized it would be funny to give him a real Husqvarna model, a cheap homeowner model with fake Chinese labels, see what he thinks.
