    Do you have any tool purchase regrets?

    • @donwight5806

      I regret purchasing the belt sanding sharpening system where you need an adjustable speed to control the cut. I also regret buying the Rockler dust hose and connectors as they don't seem to work on the shop vac or the tools. As well as, I have collected tools that I don't use. I have a pantograph for a router. A 1980s router sign set up. Two tenon jigs from delta. A pulley system for an old delta saw.

      @@donwight5806 I’ve thought about purchasing a similar sharpening system a few times myself! So far I’ve talked myself out of it! I do have the Rockler Dust Right hose and connecters. I like it so far since it seems to fit most of my tools, but I’ve learned to have very low expectations on any dust collection connectors. So many times I’ve bought a connector or adapter that doesn’t fit anything!

      My true biggest purchase regrets were the Grizzly machines I purchased. I wish I had waited and just purchased the Harvey 14 or 15 inch bandsaw, and not purchased a jointer/planer at all. Three years later, I hand plane most everything and the Grizzly G0634XP 12 inch jointer planer just sits taking up a third of my space. It took over a year for Grizzly to not repair the issues with it, and during that time I became much more proficient and reliant on hand planes from learning from Paul Sellers. I was able to set it up finally, without Grizzly's help, by ordering several replacement parts etc. but it is so much easier to just start hand planing. If I absolutely must use a power planer, I am much happier with my Dewalt 735. When I have money again, I will instead purchase the helical upgrade for my Dewalt. Anyone interested in a $3,000 Jointer/Planer? :) the Grizzly G0513ANV bandsaw was another disappointment, the table is not even machined on the sides, so it is very difficult to square everything to the blade, and easily falls out of alignment. I completely redid the wheels, replacing the tires with aftermarket set, balancing and shimming the wheels, as they were completely misaligned from the factory. And now, after resawing small pieces of white oak, it feels majorly under powered. If I had it to do again, I would have gone with the Laguna, or the Harvey (since they make it) bandsaw! And I would never have purchased the jointer/planer.

    Biscuits! I just came across your channel, and I like what I see. I’ve been working with wood for nearly 30 years, and am a firm believer that I can learn something new from every video I watch. Your tips are spot on! There are two things I learned along the way that every new woodworker should know. 1) Take the time to ensure your wood is PERFECTLY square. I remember trying to cut a mortise for the first time. I drew my line around the board, but my last line didn’t meet up with the first one. The frustration that ensued was enough to make me almost quit woodworking, and it was all because my board wasn’t square. 2) Take the time to be precise. Use a marking knife whenever possible. The thickness of a pencil line is sometimes too much. Rushing will only create more work for yourself. Slowing down and being precise made me a much better woodworker. Anyhow, I just wanted to say hi and share that with everyone. Take care, I have liked and subscribed! ☮️

    I completely agree about the belt sander. I bought one at a garage sale for $40, it was a Porter+Cable that's not made anymore. It really did a fantastic job of removing material quickly.....so quickly that I realized this tool wasn't for me. I ended up re-selling it to a contractor I hired for some renovations, for the same $40 I paid for it. So I didn't lose any money over it, but I did gain the knowledge that a belt sander doesn't belong in my particular workshop.

    Biscuit. I don't regret buying my small 6" Wen benchtop jointer. It's fine for what I do now and was cheap enough that I won't feel like it was wasted money if I later upgrade to something bigger. Meanwhile it works a whole lot better than the 0" planer I had to use before. ;-) Like you said, it depends on your own needs and workflow. I do regret buying a contractor saw that was not tunable in any way and with a fence that pointed in a different way each time it was locked. That's sitting on my garage floor unused. Between what I spent on it and the much nicer but still lower-end saw that I use now, I could have bought something much nicer than either. Your content is always worth watching, and there's lots of good advice in this video. Thanks!

    • @biscuittreewoodworks

      I imagine the table saw is most people’s first big purchase and probably the first regret. We try to go cheap but end up spending much more in the end.

    Biscuits, I agree with everything you said here. I have a mixture of parallel clamps, and so far my favorite has been the Bremen from Harbor Freight! I won several Bessey K body clamps and are they expensive. I saw a few reviews of the Bremen clamp and decided to take a chance on a couple. Very pleased with them! Someday I’ll get a Saw-Stop but I need to save up for a while. Great video!

    Biscuits 2! I appreciate using Cubitron sandpaper with my Dewalt orbital sander. Their multiple grit types are really effective at material removal and finishing efforts. Good comments about watching other woodworker comments about tool choices 'for the type of work that I prefer to do'. Putting comments in the context of what you 'need' versus what you 'want' is important.

      @@mattgoodstadt2372 Firstly health and safety regulations are a good thing, particularly where blades are concerned. Table saws are most dangerous tool in the workshop after all. Secondly, they're not illegal at all - in a commercial setting, the rule is that the blade must stop within 10 seconds, the dado stack must be fittable to the machine without modification (i.e. a longer arbor) and there must be a guard fitted when using them. Basically their use is a bit more limited and it has to be done as safely as possible. That's commercial of course and it relates to duties of employers for their employees. You can do whatever you want at home in regards to this, go crazy and change arbors and have really long braking times. Personally, I wouldn't modify it, just work around it and use other systems (router) over dado stacks.

    Biscuits! One additional point on sanders, is that upgrading from a 125mm to a 150mm model can really speed things up without compromising the quality or breaking the bank.
    As for my biggest purchasing regret, that's probably my drill press as there just isn't the space in my shop to justify it... Wpuld have been much better off with something like the Rockler Drill Guide.

    • @biscuittreewoodworks
      @biscuittreewoodworks  9 місяців тому +1

      Those are both tools that almost made the list! I have a 6" sander that I never use. It's just too big and aggressive for most work I do. It's fine if you have a large table top to smooth, but too big for most smaller pieces. I also have a small workbench drill press that I regret picking up. It doesn't have enough stroke for a lot of jobs. Wish I had purchased a full sized floor standing one. Thanks for watching!

      Bosch makes something called a PBD-40 that's fairly compact, and just light enough that it hasn't been a hassle to move around.
      It's an all-aluminium machine, so there's a teensy bit of flex to it, and they've been known for having some play in the chuck bearings, but mine's alright.
      Plus, with the way that the baseplate is also your table, it's super-easy to handle longer workpieces, and as it also has a 20mm hole in it below the chuck, you can put the machine on top of a workpiece and use it like a regular drill guide.

    The cheap F clamps in the smaller sizes (12” and smaller) from Harbor Freight are very useful. Pipe clamps are also a good for large glue ups.
    I use a belt sander for flattening large tops, but it was the only way years ago to flatten large panels.
    I’ve found a sled with my thickness planer the best way to flatten panels and boards

    Biscuit.
    As usual, you offer excellent advice.
    I have been working wood for over 65 years, both as a carpenter and as a woodworker. I have experienced making some of the same decisions you have made and, thus, I share some of the same regrets that you have. During that time, I have become more oriented toward hand tool wood working. I learned the hard way that a machine is no substitute for skill. Machines are great if you need to make a living, just as long as you buy the right machine for the work you are doing.
    Now that I have a hobby shop rather than a production shop, my shop is quieter and less dusty. It's one benefit of living long enough to retire, I guess. 😎
    Thanks again for another excellent video.

    I have used so many joinery methods, and while there's an immense satisfaction I receive from doing traditional joinery and taking the time, I wouldn't trade my Domino for anything. No more time consuming dowels, everything always lines up perfectly. I love it so much, and have made some insane looking shelves with it.

    Biscuits - great video! I wish I’d seen this when I was starting out, you’d have saved me a boatload. I have yet to use my Jessem dowel jig, although the engineer in me loves the quality and design. I started with a Porter Cable table saw from the Big Blue Box store - good saw, supported a dado stack, I learned a lot. Leveled up to the Delta 36-725 for a built-ins/cabinet project. Great saw and it fits my tiny shop space, has a good enough fence and a Incra 1000HD miter ups the game. After 6 yrs I still havent unboxed my Kreg flip up router table top and built the router table that was supposed to be my first shop tool. My Dewalt trim router and decades-old Craftsman bench top router table with my Bosch 2 1/4 hp router can do just about everything I work on. I wish I’d skipped my Rikon 10” band saw and just bought the floor standing model, but like I said I have a tiny shop I have to use mobile tools in so I can move things around. Never have moved the saw & stand so would have been better off w the floor version. I have to say I have as many harbor freight clamps as Jorgs - just don’t use them for heavy jobs.

      Sounds like you are doing pretty good! If you make a mistake on a tool buy just upgrade when you can and try to learn form it!

      I did something similar with my random orbital sander. I made a cradle for it to use upside down on my bench for sanding small parts.
