Dude…you have implemented the coolest “Lean” improvements to your process. Great to pick these trade tricks up without having to discover them through years of woodworking! Really appreciate the hacks!
I recently bought a sliding table saw and I was literally designing a blade storage cabinet last night in SketchUp. Just watched your video and I might have to consider a redesign! I don't think I'll ever have 30 blades, but I might have 10-12. Your videos inspire me to up my game! Thank you!
This is the best looking sawblade cabinet around!! I've never heard of a relish in woodworking, but I like it so the front looks clean without a step. Is there also a ketchup and a mustard :-). The magnetic block is great and I'm guessing your Tiger fence would work just as well if you had a dado head on the K3. As usual, there are lots of great tips and tricks within this excellent video - thanks for sharing your knowledge and for the mention about my holder (even though yours is much nicer). Cheers!!
Thanks David. I think yours is a better design with the doubled 1/4”. I’m curious to how well cleats would have worked on my original idea but this is working out well. Yes! I wish I had a dado stack for the K3…I need to look into them.
@@ramonartful My dado stack is the one made my Forrest and it is small at only 6" in diameter. It's also quite pricey but it is obviously high quality. I don't use it as much as I used a dado on my cabinet saw but I'm not sure why. It's probably since I have my shaper so I can do some of the tasks there. I believe an 8" dado stack will fit but you can't retract it all the way or you will damage the saw.
Very cool I am definitely going to ad something like this to my outfeed table when I build it 👍 but what's up whit the beltsander dude you know only hacks use that 😂😂
Hy, could you tell us the exact dimensions of the router bit? For this length I can get it in two different radiuses (3.6mm and 5.2mm). I guess this matters for this kind of handle. Thank you for the great content you are providing for our community!
Did you see the link in my description? I believe in that video there is a direct link to the router bit used. It’s called a bullnose bit. The video also shares my process. Thanks
Going to build one, but I'm going to try and stiffen the 1/4" melamine by adding wooden 3/8" x 3/8" channel strips on the edges of the 1/4" melamine board. Dados will change to 3/8"(+); spacing between dados remains the same. What do you think?
Another great addition, as always, awesome techniques and insights. Speaking of techniques, do you have anything that would help minimize chip out on melamine using a none slider with a scoring blade. I've tried different things but to no avail.
Thanks…I appreciate that. Melamine is probably the trickiest to cut clean on both sides without a scoring blade. I do have a method that works for smaller pieces but it’s not practical for larger pieces or a lot of panels. Let’s say I need a panel that’s 15” wide. I’ll add a strip of tape to my fence…lower the blade until it protrudes about a 1/32” or 1mm. Run the panel through, against the taped fence. Then, raise the blade to normal height and remove the tape from the fence. Cut the panel again and you’ll have a clean cut, top and bottom. The tape moves the panel over a few thousandths from the blade…minimizing or eliminating any chipping. Effective but not efficient.
Thanks for watching! And yes…I make and sell those. Here’s a link of you’re interested. Much thanks. ramonvaldezfinefurniture.com/product/delta-unifence-upgrade/
Well gee, now I don’t feel worthy at all! For the last 20 years now, my blades sit in a cardboard box with cardboard sleeves separating them like files in a file cabinet. [ as I walk away kicking at the ground with my hands in my pant pockets ] 😂😁👍🏻
This is the most complex and inefficient use of space I have ever seen. Bad storage system. You can not see what is in each drawer. So you have to hunt for the one you want. Only a cabinet maker would think of this. I have all my blades on 4" long peg hooks on my pegboard with cardboard spacers between the blades. I organize them by diameter and by tooth count. I can immediately see what blade I want.
Not true. You may have missed where I numbered the drawers and have a sheet for reference. After a year of use…it’s great. I know exactly what blade is in each drawer. I have some blades in multiples and they can stack…so I store about 27 blades. I don’t have wall space and I wouldn’t want to dig to the blade in the back. I don’t organize by tooth count. I organize by tooth configuration. This works great for me and I’ve seen others with similar cabinets. I’ve built cabinets for decades. Do you what works for you…it’s simple. I won’t even say yours is a “bad storage system”. Because if it works for you…that’s great! Cheers
That's slick! no need for any slides or pulls - super nice!
Hey…glad you liked! Much thanks.
Very professional and efficient !! Thanks so much for your time!
I learn at least 2-3 new solutions or techniques in each of your videos. Great job.
I sure do appreciate this feedback…Much thanks!
Ramone what a great project! And your efficiencies through your work methods are second to none! I really appreciate you sharing this
Thank you for watching!
Automagically. Love it! 😎
Heh heh 😏 👊🏼

Hey Paul…thanks for watching the video. I appreciate the feedback!
Awesome man! Been itching to make one after seeing David’s. Love your take.
Hey buddy. David and I talked about this a while back. I had started this about 4 years ago…seeing his lit a fire under me to complete it. 😬
Ramon you are a top precison wood maker with timber.
Thank you tons…it’s an extremely satisfying passion!
Nice design thanks for sharing it
Thanks for watching the video!!
Another great video…….thanks from PJ Westchester NY
Hey PJ from NY! 😬 👊🏼Thanks for watching the video!
As always brother - great content!
Thank you! 👊🏼
Great work ! Love the detail on the handle. I learn a new trick with everyone of your videos. Thanks for sharing !!
Awesome to hear…that’s my goal! Thanks for the great feedback
More great ideas from you! Thanks a bunch!
Great to hear! Thank you
That's a load of great tips and work history for sure. Have to check out your past work for more info. Subbing now.
Cool to hear… thanks and welcome!
Refreshing.
Great! Thanks for watching!
Love the glue ‘squeegee’ technique! Thanks for sharing 🙏
Cool to hear! Glad you found some use in the video. Much thanks.
Very nice!
Thanks ! I’m so glad I finally made it! 😆

Hey Derek! Thanks for the feedback and I appreciate you checking out the video!
Lots of helpful tips and tricks, as usual, Ramon. Thanks a lot.
Always good to hear this…thanks for your feedback!
Great blade storage/protection! Always learn from your videos. Thank you!
I’m loving it! And thanks. I appreciate the feedback!

Such attention to detail as always, I'd have it in the house!
Ha ha…hmm 🤔 What could we store in there
@@ramonartful I'd still keep the blades in it......
A great looking project, thank you for sharing it.
Good to hear…thank you for checking out the video!
Amazing work man. Inspirational for sure
Thank you. I appreciate you watching the video!

You’ll love it…very useful! And yeah…what can I say. Only a few lucky ones know about belt sanders !

By far the most underrated woodworking channels on YT.

Great stuff. I see you have the same Delta Unifence that I have, and noticed the roller wheel has replaced the nylon 'foot'. Where did you get that?
Thanks for watching! And yes…I make and sell those. Here’s a link of you’re interested. Much thanks.

Do you have the document on this homemade magnetic block?
I’m sorry , but no I don’t. Thanks for watching
@@ramonartfulI am trying to figure out on how it’s made. Maybe a sketch would do and I can go from there?
Sure, I could do that. Maybe thru an email? or...@@ronaldboucher9564
Whoo hoo. Just improvised the build!
Well gee, now I don’t feel worthy at all! For the last 20 years now, my blades sit in a cardboard box with cardboard sleeves separating them like files in a file cabinet. [ as I walk away kicking at the ground with my hands in my pant pockets ] 😂😁👍🏻
