Great solution dude!! I'm dying with the Jerry and green tape references. I really appreciate the shout out! Can you work on calibrating the spring joint out of my machine next time?! LOL. Oh, and I will DM you a thin strip solution that another maker across the pond came up with that was similar to mine, but worked much better.
I would totally watch a Facebook reel of that ;) gotta pump up that revenue to take Jason and Nick to see Greta Van Fleet!
@@philthompson LOL! Thanks for the support! Gonna need a lot more to reach that GVF goal!
Haha glad you enjoyed. Dude I tried fixing my beds. Four 3-hour sessions later, and it officially cuts like it did before. So many points of adjustment!!!
@@SawyerDesign i had a tech here twice and both times for 8 hours. Still can’t joint a flat board.
Every day I'm in the shop, I'm thankful for my drum sander. Best floorspace I've ever ** given up.
"Solving other youtuber's problems, that are also solving my own problems"= Fabrication Facilitation. That's my contribution.
Man you channel is one of those rare gems :)
A little woodworking, a little comedy, I dig it.
Glad you enjoyed, Tab! I wish they could all be build videos, but glad my weirdness is well received on these shop projects.
@@SawyerDesign I doubt anyone is so busy that they could create a build video every week. Chris at Third Coast Craftsman has nailed a good mix of projects and instructional. Watching him do dovetails is mesmerizing.
As a subscriber to both yourself and Cam at Blacktail Studio, I'm looking forward to this collaboration. Maybe one with Jason at Bourbonmoth could be fun.
Thanks for the 10% off of my website purchase.
Dude, I love how goofy you are with words. Don't change. Nice engineering. ✌
Hahaha ugh. So goofy with words. Too adhd to focus on one sentence all the way through. Thanks Richard 🤙
This collaboration is gonna be awesome, can’t wait to see it
Nice one, Nick/Heith 😄
what about calling your series Saw-Yer Problems, like saw your problems
This wins. Changing series name now!
Your face when the board snapped!! 🤣🤣🤣
I love the content you put out. I'm a subscriber at BlackTail too, so I can't wait for this colab!
thanks
elegant solution - let us know at some point how it holds up as you run a few miles of veneer through it.
I always appreciate your humor! Great solution.
Thanks Heath. Enjoyable and informative!
Man, you’ve got something super unique and enjoyable going on here. Can’t wait to see what comes next.
"argh ragh ragh raaag"- Nick Sawyer
I like your determination. As soon as wood starts crackling I run away. Reminds me I need a helical hard for my planer. Great vid as always. Looking forward to the next one. Still praying you get the million subscribers your work deserves.
Thanks Dennis!
I watched the heartache of Kieth’s video and it’s good to see you helping a brother out whilst helping yourself out. 😂
Awesome solution, Nick! Seems to work great! 😃
Looking forward to the collab!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Love your videos. Just got the same unit and I'm thinking you just solved one of my problems.
That was so much thinner than I thought you could get it. Looking forward to seeing wat you and Cam come up with.
Can't wait for see more episodes of saw-yer problems.
👍🏻👍🏻
Good solution- might wear the feed roller a bit but you can easily avoid those areas with narrow stock , subscribed commented liked👍
I built a flip top into my outfeed table to house a 16/32 drum sander. That tool is a worthwhile investment for a pro doing a lot of bent laminations. Looking forward to the colab with Cam.
Agreed. Just need to decide where it’ll live. How do you like the open end? Does it thickness? I’m kind of thinking a closed system/wide belt might actually be more like what I need for consistency
@@SawyerDesign You're in the Portland area, right? I've got a 16/32 drum sander you can come test out if you want to see how they perform in person. I use it for acoustic guitar sides, tops, and backs, among other things. It's plenty accurate and consistent for what I do, but I haven't tried going down to 1/16" with it, yet. Come to think of it, I did do 3/32", but it was narrow strips, so the end-to-end variance didn't really matter.
@@SawyerDesign I think it does pretty well for consistency. There is an adjustment knob the keep the drum running coplaner to the feed belt and table, but I am surprised at how stable it is for thin strips. When I need liners for small boxes, it's never let me down. I also like the open end for larger projects that I am going to finish sand anyway, but this gets the bulk done. I mostly keep 120 grit loaded.
Yeah I’m in milwaukie. That’d be awesome man! I’ve been so close to pulling the trigger on a little open end one, but $1,500 is $1,500 and wasn’t sure if that style would work.
Awesome thanks man. I’ll have to go try chads out. For lams, probably 120 or 80 would be great for speedy material removal
Great vid! Super informative. I wonder if a roller bearing side by side (like a figure 8) to create a saddle that your “problem feeder” can rest in would have more longevity?! 🤔
"I don't want my wood eaten" lol
Blue tape rocks 🤘
Fixing it 👍
That's going to be a fantastic collaboration!!!
I'm very much looking forward to it!!
BTW- I'm already subbed to both of y'all, but I'll be sure to share some vids!!
That should help a little bit...
Oh, hey! If EVERYBODY shares the SAME video - THAT would REALLY help the channel !!
We should ALL collab to do THAT!!!
Smart! Would turning the rollers off help with wear? Would you still need the brass shims?
Gotta wear flip flops for the collab
Haha and Keeps is sponsoring 😂
Seeing the results you're getting, I'd like to try the jig on my planer. I have a double drum sander, but my veneers coming off the bandsaw are rougher than I'd like. I feel like the planer would make faster work flattening it all out, then do a couple finish passes on the double drum for final thicknessing. My last veneer run took FOREVER since it doesn't remove nearly as much material per pass.
This is definitely faster. That’s kinda why I want a wide belt, but man, those things are massive. Give this a shot and let me know how it works for ya
I have the A3-31 and it is specified that the min thickness is 2mm probably for the very reason your explained. I wont be making your jig, but it was cool to see your thought process. On a side note, you should get a drum sander. Even a small one can pay for itself in a few projects.
Neat solution, and, as always, great cinematography. Would think that losening the feed roller tensioning springs would have the same result?
Yeah probably! Hadn’t really considered it. That machine is a bear to work on. I’d probably want to tighten them back up though for normal use given the amount of tension that one sees from the leverage from that short bed.
@@SawyerDesign Absolutely, good point. The small plastic plates covering the tension mechanism just snaps off. Make a mark on the nut and count turns. Should take 5 minutes to undo.
Looking forward to see what all the veneers is gooing to be!
Awesome! Thanks Ty. I’ll definitely fool around with that. I had a hell of a time with the beds adjustment. Scared me off wanting to turn a wrench on this thing lol
When I got my planer from Felder I got the optional second pressure bar on the outfield side.
Oh wow. Didn’t know that was an option. I got this hammer second hand. Will have to check to see if they have that option aftermarket
@@SawyerDesign , It could be a bolt on from Hammer.
Hi Nick , I subbed to your channel a couple of months back cause the in the video I stumbled across you were building that Epic workbench
of yours and in another one you kept in the footage of your Fur friend Inspector Doggo :-) Now if you also have an Inspector Kitty Cat ? and
were to include them both in the videos often - you'll hit the 50K mark by next month because having Fur Friends is really the Tits ! ;-) ;-)
Congrats on hitting the 40K mark , Happy new year to you & the Missus & the Fur friends too :-)
I have two kitties, but they don’t like the noise in the shop. Happy New Year!
8:13 - Green Tape in background -> 8:15 - Blue Tape rules. lol
Lol I actually had to go buy blue tape for that bit 😂
The hand plane from bridge city has depth guides
It’s aluminum though
Nylon strip would wear the rollers less
I was going to suggest a drum sander, but noted that several others suggested that also. Since you're space-challenged, you might actually consider a quick side-adventure and bump out your garage shop wall. Framing isn't difficult, nor is concrete work... think of all the ways you could over-engineer the s**t outta that! Two final thoughts - 1) Don't know how the UA-cam algorhythm doesn't smack you for using 't**ts'; and, 2) (inner toddler here) I don't wanna wait ten days for your next posting. Keep up the awesome work.
Yeah if I owned the building I’d be all over the addition! Some day. Is tits a bad word? Lol we all got ‘em. Thanks Matt! Stoked to show ya what I got cookin’
So if I understand correctly, you don't want the infeed and outfeed rollers to grab the wood? I have the same idea of machine from a different manufacturer and for jointing operations I can disconnect the rollers, not sure if you have that option. With the sled in place to keep the roller from pushing down and the rollers disconnected there should be no need for a bearing or anything in the location of the roller?
I don’t have the option to disconnect and still need them, just reducing the pressure on the infeed side.
@@SawyerDesign my machine is the Rikon, looks exactly like yours, 12" Jointer/planer, helical cutter head, and they put a Lever to disengage the drive pulley from the feed rollers so they don't turn during jointing.
Thanks so much for all your uploads, your attention to detail is an inspiration.
I miss my Metabo jointer/planer combo. Not sure why Rikon is the only mfg that makes a hobbyist version here in the States. Probably explains why it is 2500 dollars. Love that Hammer, though.
Holy crap, really?! I picked up that hammer used for $2k and it came with my bandsaw. Love the machine for what it is, where it is. Definitely looking forward to having separate machines and a larger space some day
@@SawyerDesign I know Jet used to make a combo tool, similar to Metabo, which was also in the $700 range, but Rikon was the only one I could find in stock a few months ago. Supply chain issues, maybe?
As for the shop size, I think a bigger shop is on every woodworker's wish list. 😁 It looks like you are getting the most out of your garage though.
Just make a vacuum bed to hold the thin strips and pass them through the planer.
Yeah that’s what KJ tried. Didn’t work for him
I'm afraid you'll will get problems with feeding. On that model, the feed rollers are driven by friction against a large wheel with a plastic coating. if you press the feed rollers to hard, they will soon wear to a flat spot on the large wheel. Remove the side cover on the back of the planer and you will see what I mean. If you use the idea of ball bearings, it should work, I think 🤔
Was that a Blue Cattle Dog. I'm an Aussie and it looks like a BC Dog. They come in a lot more forms than the classical form. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_Cattle_Dog
Oh, yeah, good advice in that video too. Hope you had a good break.
Yeah she’s a blue heeler! Such a little menace, but an awesome buddy to have around
I would be concerned that this hack could damage the feed rollers through time. If this is something you are going to use regularly it could be worth going with your suggestion of some sort of bearings for the feed rollers to press onto. Will be interesting to see what you come up with.
Yeah I ordered some bearings. Could definitely wear the bite off the roller on the edges
Why dont you buy veneere in thicknes 0,9mm or 1,2mm or 1,5mm or 1,7mm or 2mm?
Expensive.
@@SawyerDesign Maybe but your method is sooo labor intensive. If you look how long have you been dooing this and you put a cost on your wourk is it still to expensive?
A small drum sander and build it into a workbench. Otherwise a wide belt sander is the way to go. Changing paper on drums is annoying as shit.
If you do this for one and only project it’s ok. But, you are a professional. Seems like a sander would be a reasonable investment. Just saying……..
Yeah it’s more about room than anything. I just don’t know where to put one!
@Sawyer Design i think you may need to go to flat surface rehab. Then, when you get clean, you might find a parking space for a sander 😌
😂 but… but… where do I put things and stuff? Tbh my ts outfeed is a little larger than need be
Ignore Nick, don’t subscribe. I had a thing for Angelina Jolie in Hackers, before any of my mates knew who she was, then she got all famous and ruined our special thing. Now Nick is going to go do a collab with Blacktail and probably get loads of new subscribers, I don’t care if it’s well deserved I’m not sure if I can handle that Angelina effect twice. Also another video without any innuendos 😥
😂 I’ll throw some lowbrow in the next one
@@SawyerDesign haha hope so thanks 🙏 looking forward to the collab though, that should be good 👍
How about you tell us about the problem you have with your nose?
My nose?! What’s wrong with my nose?! Is it red? Rudolf is my great uncle. That’s probably it. And I’m allergic to sawdust.
