In this video I show you how to make MY favorite table saw push stick and why I designed it the way I did. Then I bring you along as I hand them out as gifts to friends and fans down at WBC2019. If you want to build your own, download the FREE template using the link in the video description and have at it! Thanks so much for watching and be sure to check out the WBAT Podcast for all sorts of hilarity and great conversations!
Hey everyone! Hope you like this fun little push stick project! It's super easy to make and will last you a lifetime! Don't forget to download your FREE TEMPLATE using this link: tinyurl.com/y5qtrhst If you liked the video, help me out by sharing it around, I'd certainly appreciate it. And as always, thanks so much for watching!
Love it! Definitely going to try making a few of these. Super practical design and I love that you've thought through the clamping positions and extending use over time when the bottom gets chewed up.
i have a bit of a question, when you were gluing the walnut onto the push stick, why did you put salt on it? I don't really ever build things so i dont know what that was about and the curiosity is killing me.
@@alexreid4131 Thanks, glad you liked it!
@@saratwiss5993 that's so that the pieces don't slide around as you apply clamping pressure. A sprinkle of salt keeps things from shifting so you can get them perfectly lined up and clamp them tight.
@@FishersShop that makes a lot of sense, thank you!
Just have to say that I really appreciate that you don't include music in your videos. Being able to listen to the sounds all the tools makes is super satisfying!
I was going to make one of these but my ADD kicked in and I got distracted. Then I found your video and down loaded the plans. Thanks Drew.
Oh I lost it at the end when you sneezed and took off your mask. That was hilarious!
I liked to wet my self laughing. My wife almost vomited. That is when you know it was awesome.
Yeah I just about lost it at my desk. I'm dying.
Too funny. I remember when we were training in Ft. Lewis. The mosquitoes were unbelievable. So I had a snipers veil to try and keep the state bird (I'm sure it is...) away. Then you get used to it, and you inevitably hock a loogie. Mixed with green camo, no less. It goes about inch and a half and stops right in front of your face. The only choice I had? Swing it around 180 degrees and drive on! :)
Having fun. I love it. Some great ideas in this video
Glad you enjoyed!
I come here for the humor and end up learning woodworking things, too! WHO DOESN'T LOVE SANDING?!
Thanks, Sean!
GREAT project Drew. I see many people make custom push sticks but NEVER put a sacrificial piece on the bottom. Well Done! !! !!! I am going to make one but I think I will use Bag Balm for my finishing oil of choice. Every time I use it my hands will get softer and softer. Thank for the template.
Haha, you're welcome! Thanks for watching!
I too shall have to make some for gifts. thank you for the template.
The first reusable pushstick! Great design. Happy to bring you to 7k.
Glad you liked it
Awesome push stick and enjoyed the video thank you for sharing both of them. Appreciate the thought put into the design to make the push stick a forever one. Thanks for the template.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’m a newbie to the art but this video is all I need to head to the shop with a inspired attitude before I screw up again...thanks
You're welcome! Glad you found some inspiration!
Graphite in the epoxy was a good idea. Never thought of that.
Looks great... gonna make one for me now!
Thanks for the design and the video!
Have fun!
Very nice. I shall make one. Thanks for sharing the plan and the process.
Have fun!
Great job Drew.
Thanks, bud! Was great meeting you at WBC
Been using John Heinz's pattern for years, and saw that you gave him one, then Chris from a Glimpse inside showed his Fisher push stick off, so I thought I'd upgrade after all these years.
You'll love it!
This must be the most beautiful push stick in the world!!!!! actually too good to use
Thanks! Yeah, I suspect most people won't even use them.
@@FishersShop yeah you got that right. I would hang it on the wall and use a piece of scrapwood instead hahaha
I LOVE the pencil in the epoxy - brilliant. And funny as ever 👏👏 lucky viewers... wish I’d been there. Hmmm... just a hop, skip and a jump across the pond 😆
"I add a chamfer, so it's more aerodynamic when you throw it across the room when you screw something up" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I resemble that comment! THAT is friggin' hilarious!!!
David Shearer I love that comment too. But I have had a thought. With a little bit of redesign as an Australian. @Fisher’s Shop redesign in a boomerang shape that way it will come back you so you don’t have to walk and try and find it ...... hang on, that might be dangerous. Screw something up, throw push stick, get hit in back of head. Stand down on redesign.
Still like this video. Creative, informative, generous and funny to boot!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you. This will be my push stick instead of the plastic one I currently use.
Your outtakes crack me up
You're very welcome, Belinda! Thanks for watching!
The sneeze at the end! I've done that so many times!!!
Very nice! One thing I love is using a Stewmac Ultimate Scraper to knock down epoxy fills like that, or overflow from inlay.
Had to do a double take when I saw GRR! Cheers from Byron Center from somebody whose just discovering this crazy wood working thing. Loving the content.
Thanks 👍 Haha, yup... you're not too far away
I feel honored to have received one of these. It’s gorgeous! I really like how you through through replacing he bottom, having it flat on the back so you can line it up with your fence. All of those details are really well thought out. Thanks for the shoutout too! (Pssssttt...don’t sneeze in your dust mask. Ha ha. That cracked me up)
I like the idea of a changeable foot. I make a new push stick about once every couple months. The ideas are flowing. Thanks
You're welcome! Thanks for watching
I know I'm a bit late joining this party but I can't stop laughing at the outtakes. The sneeze moment just cracks me up and I'm glad to announce that I have found another channel to binge watch. Love your humour Drew.
Thanks. Welcome to the channel, Jo
The aerodynamics make it the perfect accessory for any triathlete - so aero!
Great design. GREAT out takes.
Thanks Nelson!
Drew I got to say, that pencil graphite dust pigment trick is fantastic. Black diamond ain’t got nothing on you my brother! No seriously I’m probably gonna use that in one of my next projects !! Call so great to finally meet you up at WBC. Take care man!
Thanks, Chris! Yeah, sure was awesome to finally meet up. Already looking forward to next year
Very late to the party, loving catching up with your posts. Many thanks for the freebie template 👊🏻
Enjoy!
Beautiful she looks like a masterpiece. I used to have one that I made but I live in Puerto Rico due to Hurricane Maria she cleaned me out out of tools and everything. I just finally got my table saw. now I got to make a push stick soon as I can but that one is a Butte God bless you and everybody else.
Glad you're safe at least. Thanks for watching, Reynaldo
@@FishersShop yeah I'm great but no way I'm kind of sad I lost my wife but I know Life Goes On 😔
Those are nice looking push sticks! What an awesome gift idea for Workbench Con. Great video as always Drew!
Thanks Doug! Sure hope to see you there next year! So stop having kids!! Lol
Your commentary is absolutely fantastic. It's real and makes me crack up!!!!!!!
Thanks! :)
""Oh Gross""..... I'm dying here!!! BTW, thanks for all the inspiration, plans and reality checks, you help make me a better learner/woodworker.
Not sure what I enjoyed more, the finished takes and the products, or the outtakes!
the outtakes.... say it..... the outtakes.....:-)
Great design on the push stick and really appreciate providing the free template. Never seen one that is repairable before. Really like your humor, projects and videos. Keep it up. Chris
Thanks, Chris!
What’s not to like? Superb pushstick, great video and top notch commentaries...and free template! Doesn’t get any better than this. Keep ‘em coming! 🤗👏🏻
Glad you enjoyed it
I love your humor...
You always have at least one line that cracks me up. ‘Make sure you use the dullest bit to burn the crap out of things....’ This time it happened while eating lunch at Subway! Great video!
Hehe, thanks Ryan! :)
You are totally hilarious, i laugh out loud at your jokes...thanks for your humor and woodwork.
Thanks! :)
Fantastic push stick ideas. I love the CNC router and logos. Oh , and of course the hilarious outtakes.
Thanks Michael!
Great video as always! If the weather ever warms up out here and I can work in my shop (garage) again I'll have to get started on making this (and some of the jig ideas too!). So thoughtful of you to make gifts for some of your woodworking companions.
Thanks, Drew!
Now that's a push stick with great design & function! I will have to copy that one for my own use. Those outtakes were also worth the watch..............too funny.......... :)
Thanks, Steve!
Drew, what a great build video, I never would have thought about using finishing oil in my morning grooming routine! I'm humbled to have received one of these and I look forward to using it! I'm glad the bottom Walnut strip is replaceable so I won't feel as bad about getting it cut up.
Thanks Allen! Just don't cut off the #unnecessarywalnut! Hehe :)
I love the humor you bring to your channel... great projects as well.
Thanks Michael
Great push stick and great video drew. Thanks for sharing my friend!
You got it, Mike. Thanks for watching
Great, you are. Here from Brazil. Hugs
Just finished clamping the catch on two push sticks, thanks Drew
Excellent!
Found your template for your push stick! Thank you so much!
Hope you like it!
I like your sense of humour. Great work!
My first reaction when I saw the description in my inbox was "Oh, goody, another push stick video". But this is really a great and innovative design! The well thought out features for future repair are outstanding. As usual, your reputation for humor made me open the link, and as always, I was entertained. I unexpectedly got a quick tutorial on epoxy filling. I now think it might be easier than I've been imagining. I'm going to make a couple for regular use, and adapt one with a wide flat surface for use with my jointer. I'm thinking to apply non skid material to the surface of it, and incorporate a couple of drop down pins for the rear of the workpiece. And definitely the chamfers to make it more efficiently airborne after a mistake! Thanks.
Thanks so much, Jim! Plasti-Dip works great for non-slip surfaces and might be perfect for what you're looking to do.
@@FishersShop I hadn't heard that name for years. I think you're right, that may be the perfect thing. It would be a lot better than trying to keep drawer liner material glued onto the surface. Thanks.
Watched it, built it, love it.
Outtakes are the best! Great vids
Thanks, Craig
I like your Utube videos. Great projects. I’m sort of a beginner. Your a funny guy. I like your humor. I’ve laughed many times. I’ve had fun learning from you. I’ve also made some fire wood from my efforts. Thanks for your show. I’ll keep watching. rd
this video is excellent!!! i learned, i giggled, and seeing you make push sticks for mark and bruce - a.k.a. two of the best humans ever - made my heart feel squishy 🖤🖤🖤
I love me some squishy hearts! Thanks Jessie! :)
Drew, I love sticking around for your blooper/gag reel at the end of your videos! Shows that even though you make phenomenal pieces, you are human and make mistakes too. Pobodys Nerfect!
If only my screw-ups were as few as the ones I show.
@@FishersShop Hey, we've all been there! I consider the ending the highlight reel 😂
Oh man, I lost it at the end when you sneezed into your mask! I really enjoyed this video! It was so wonderful meeting you at WBC, I had a blast hanging out all weekend
Likewise Zach! So glad we found each other and I'm already looking forward to next year!
Well what a great video and free plan. First video I watched of yours but been listening to you for a while on We Built a Thing podcast. Keep it up sir.
Thanks for listening, Jason!
I really like your crosscut sled. especially the T tracks. very nice!
I have another 2 videos just on tablesaw jigs. Check them out!
Totally relate to the startled jump at the push-sticks falling over domino-style. Standing in a nice, quiet shop, and suddenly things start clattering... Scary stuff... Good video, Drew!
Haha, thanks man!
As always thanks for sharing.
Great looking push sticks and a great design! I'm gonna make a few - one wide, one medium, and one narrow - cover all the bases, ya know!
Thanks! Never occurred to me to make a wider one (for jointers) but that's a good idea.
Great idea. I have always used John Heisz's model - and still will continue to - but this is definitely going to be - or they as I will make a few - right along with it. Thanks for the free template
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching
I'm binge watching your entire collection, it seems. I keep laughing every time at the outtakes!
Another hilarious and awesome build! Thank you for the entertainment.
Thanks!!
Wow the graphite and epoxy looks INCREDIBLE
Right? I liked it.
Subscribed for A. Excellent woodworking instructions. B. Fantastic sarcasm
Thanks for the template. And thanks for the outtakes. Best in the biz!
Oh man, thanks for that. You're very welcome
Love the outtakes
Well done Drew, as always of course. 32" of snow here in the last 2 days. Looks like its push stick time over here! Think I'll go with a Bubinga & Walnut version to go with the warped, twisted and otherwise usless pine pallet boards and plywood I use...God Bless Drew.
Ooo, that sounds nice. Tag me on IG once you finish, I'd like to see it (if you use IG)
My first laugh of the day, rof lol at the sneeze. Love the push stick too.
Loved teh process and the usability !! Your humor in making the tools was second to none. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT !!! Look forward to the next vid
Thanks, Michael!
Graphite in the epoxy was a really clever idea. I dig it!
Thanks, Craig
Someday when I have my saws, this shall be made!!!
I'm loving your compact designs, especially when I plan out my future shop in my detached shed.
Great work!
And friends with Mark C... You're good in my book.
Nice design! I’m making one tonight. Only thing I’ll add is that I’ll drill a hole in the handle so I can hang it on my wall when I’m not using it. Nice job!
Yeah, a hole or inlaid magnets would have been a good thing for me to add. Nice thinking
Lovely design dude - thanks for sharing
You're very welcome
I laughed out loud when I you sneezed in your mask. Love your vids, thank you Drew, keep them coming
Omg! That last outtake though...😂😂😂
Great video! Your voice reminds me of the 90's TV show Wonder Years!!
OMG I was thinking the same thing too, but didn't think about putting it into words. He has a great narrator voice.
Your outtakes crack me up!
Drew! Love your videos, projects, but especially the outtakes!
Thoughtful design. Love the bloopers.
Nice video. Amazing engraving machine
Thanks!
Thank you for the free template, Mr. Fisher.
Nice design...just like mine. Been using it for more years than I can remember. Appreciate your sneezing fit. I always keep a half dozen extra filters available for my RZ Mask for just such events.
Love the videos. Thank you for sharing the design.
You're welcome, Kevin! Thanks for watching
Fantastic design and a fantastic video as usual. Watching you in Northern Ireland.
You make me want a CNC machine just so I can do epoxy inlays. That is so badass.
OMG awesome design! Love it. I’ve been watching a bunch of push stick videos to see how I could improve mine and this one is # 1. Very smart using the graphite filings. Keep up the good work.
Thanks, Alexis!
Love the push stick design. Thanks for sharing 👊🏼
Also I Love the humor and outtakes. Keep it going.
Thank you, sir!
I would have left those burn marks to add character. lol. keep up the great work, as a beginner i find your videos informative as well as a good laugh.
Glad you like them!
Love your videos and sense of humour, awesome resource, thanks for all the time you put into this!
Thank you very much
Love those outtakes!
Great as always. Gotta love the outtakes.
Thanks, Joe
You do great content and I absolutely love the dry sense of humor!
Thanks!
This is great for so many reasons. Well done.
Thanks, Adam!
Seriously, these vids are incredibly entertaining.
Well thanks!
Nice push sticks, Drew. I made one similar years ago and it too is still in use. I have also sneezed into my RZ mask and couldn't help but laugh! Makes one glad they are washable!!
Billy
Haha, thanks Billy!
Thank you for the free template made two today. My bandsaw blade exploded as well. Scared the crap out of me and my dog. Have a Merry Christmas!
