    • @EvolutionWoodworks
      @EvolutionWoodworks 19 годин тому

      At the table saw? Yeah, I just took an old set of rubber bottomed push blocks that had gotten hard and glued a chunk of 2x4 to them with a little hook at the back end to push. When the hook gets cut up too much I'll glue another one on. I have had my eye on the Micro Jig version but I probably wouldn't use it for everyday use. There are some cool features on theirs for when you're cutting awkward shapes but I'm sure I would have plastic flying if I used it for everything.

    Looks like the expensive Rockler panel clamps don't do such a good job of keeping all the pieces flat.... I see you had to go back to the drum sander to get both sides flat Kudos to show the booboo and how you fixed it. None of us is perfect -- I've done the same. Measure twice - look twice.

    Honestly, I don’t catch it at the time and had to go back and look again. I put a piece in wrong on a different patterned board. It was 4 rows of 4 “S” looking columns with columns 1 and 3 facing opposite of 2 and 4. Didn’t catch it for a while. Left it cause I didn’t have another piece and it was longways, so would have been tougher take remake. So it looked like 2 columns of S’s down the middle of it with opposing ones down the sides. I ended up selling it to my hair cutter gal and just so happened that her name is Stephanie, so almost like it was meant to be.🤭. Anyway, great video with or without the mistake fixing. Nice that you had the extra piece, but then again if you hadn’t had an extra one and used the original, you could have shown how to make a slightly smaller piece work.😅

    • @EvolutionWoodworks
      @EvolutionWoodworks Місяць тому

    Thanks for confirming that squaring the fence to the cut works, makes sense. That five cut method is above my pay grade, I understand the concept but the potential movement in the wood could negate any micro adjustment made. I’m sticking to the cut to the fence & if that fails there’s always wood filler.

    • @EvolutionWoodworks
      @EvolutionWoodworks Місяць тому

      I've had it for about a year and it was down to the Jet and the SuperMax. At that time, Jet has updated theirs since, the SuperMax had several features that the Jet didn't for about the same price. Now they both have the automatic speed adjustment, INTELISAND as they call it. But the SuperMax still wins with a digital depth gauge, better sanding belt clamps that are easier to use, quick adjustment for wider stock to name a few. My Dad actually just bought the Jet and after seeing it in action I'd still go with the SuperMax. It's a nice machine but still missing some details in my opinion. Of course budget was a consideration too but if it weren't I'd go bigger. The 16-32 has worked for me and I've even done some countertops in two passes but it would be nice to have more width in some situations. Hope that helps.

      IDK what Grizzly is like these days but years ago they were pretty weak on the details. My Dad and my uncle had a bunch of them and they worked but always seemed to be missing parts or hard to get adjusted perfectly. We lived an hour from the warehouse so it was easy to get but I always felt they left a lot to be desired. Again, that was 20+ years ago. Things may have changed but I never even consider them after that. Thanks for the compliments. It's a second channel for me so I have some experience but in a completely different genre. That channel never really made any headway and I've sort of left it to die but I at least got some experience and a pile of equipment to use here. I just have to keep coming up with new things to build and ways to keep it interesting. Stay tuned!

    Do you find you get a lot of snipe with your planer? I picked up that same Dewalt planer when one went on clearance at my local Lowe's but I've found I get pretty significant snipe on the infeed, I've tried leveling the infeed/outfeed tables but I can't seem to eliminate the snipe. Love your content, your videos recently came up in my suggested videos feed and I've been watching through all of your previous videos since.

    • @EvolutionWoodworks
      @EvolutionWoodworks Місяць тому

      @iguanahotsauce I used to get that if I didn't support the board enough. I find if you lift up on the back end a bit while the first few inches feed in and again for the last few inches, it minimizes it. Having the in and out feed rollers on this stand seems to help too. And don't forget to lock the cutter head after every adjustment. Thanks for watching!

      Try putting two or three dimes in the center of the planner and then placing a a long straight edge on the dimes. Then level your infeed/outfeed tables. This is what dewalt support had me do and while it won't eliminate snip it does help reduce it.
