    I don’t comment much but I just want to say how much I appreciate your videos. A lot of alike channels, switched to do tool reviews, with a bunch of links in description when they got bigger audience. So thank you for not shoving tools 24/7 in our faces and keep giving us what we liked about your channel!!

      I couldn’t agree with this more, perhaps if their likes start to drop off they might post a build video once in a while. Love Matt’s channel and Facebook page!

      I totally agree, 2tart. I am becoming irritated with channels that have turned into tool salesmen and have started unsubscribing from them.

    Here’s a great tip for the pink foam board. Cut it in half or thirds or whatever, then tape one side with duct tape. It folds open and closed for easy storage. Works great.

    1:48 I had one of those screwdrivers where the metal part pulls out of the handle and you can flip it so you have Phillips and flat head. Stuck it in my drill and now I had an extra long bit that worked perfectly.

  • @kenerickson4923
    @kenerickson4923 2 місяці тому

    Back in the day before nail guns, I used a lot of finish nails to put things together. I would chuck a finish nail in my drill to make pilot holes so the wood wouldn't split when I drove in the nail. Your tip on replacing a small bit reminded me of my old practice. Yes, I don't think I have any tiny drill bits that have not been broken off in a project. 😢
