Cocktail Smoker Demo
This is a quick demo video of how to use our whiskey smokers. We originally purchased our plans from @HamiltonDilbeck and have had fun experimenting at home with different cocktails. Once a person sees the potential in this unique item, they can have a lot of fun with it. This is not a build video, but a how to use video for anyone who has purchased this smoker.

Wahuda 10 Inch Jointer - Replacing Full Size Jointer with A Benchtop!
Переглядів 1 тис.Місяць тому
In this video, I show the setup and some test cuts on a new Wahuda 10" Benchtop Jointer. The wide bed and spiral cutter head with carbide inserts, all within a benchtop machine, intrigued me enough to replace my standard-size jointer.

This allowed us to use a larger hose than the stock one shipped with the XTool P1 and replace the original hose with a higher-quality 4" exhaust hose. Exhaust performance improved, and there are no longer worries about finding rips and tears in the original hose! Affil...

    This jointer does not have a spiral cutter head. It is a segmented head. Knives still cut strait, fewer knives than a spiral head. The print this crap on the box hoping that the buyer doesn't know any better. These companies should be called on this crap.

    • @MattesonCreations
      @MattesonCreations Місяць тому

      Hey, thanks for the comment. This is of great interest to me as I was working to learn more about it as I considered purchasing this jointer. I am not a machinist nor a machine designer, but my understanding it that this jointer's cutter head is technically a spiral cutter head (several small carbide inserts arranged in a spiral pattern on the cutter head). Of note is that the inserts still cut straight (90 deg) to the surface. Whereas a helical cutter head would have more inserts and they are set at an angle to shear the wood. Here is the reference I had saved when looking it up on my own. www.konetool.com/spiral-vs-helical-cutterhead-differences-explained/#:~:text=Usually%2C%20spiral%20cutterheads%20can%20create,capable%20of%20making%20deep%20holes. I'm certainly no expert though and love the feedback, hopefully others will help enlighten me!

      @MattesonCreations 6 місяців тому

      Hello and thanks for watching. I did look at both. I liked the idea of Avid because I knew things would not always work forever and figured with Avid if I built it I can fix it. With Stepcraft I liked the price point and the many features and options that can be added. What led me to choose Avid was something simple, but important. On two or three different occasions, I reached out to Avid with questions about their product and got a response within hours. It was just basic sales questions, but they still responded immediately. I had similar questions for Stepcraft and never got a response. Granted this was years ago and I'm sure things have changed. Also, I felt Avid was just a more robust machine compared to a similar sized Stepcraft. If I was in the market for a higher end hobby machine today, I'd still consider Stepcraft, but would hope they would reply to my questions! Thanks again, hope you gave the video a thumbs up and would consider subscribing if you have not already!

    Great job, only comments i might make are, the cable guide, if it was fitted the other way around, wouldn't the clips be accessible for adding new cables, say for new sensors or similar? And i'm not sure if they were, but only ever use flush cutters on cable ties, it might happen now, but at some point you are going to really regret not, generally coupled with tight deadlines etc.
