I'm not trying to be a kiss-ass, but it's astonishing how well done this video is. Well planned/written, well produced, well performed, well paced, and the content is comprehensive.
I absolutely love the way you explain things and your methods and processes. I don't know if you were a geek but you design like you are and I love it. So many other woodworking channels on UA-cam either take too long to get to the point or gloss over things too quickly.
IMHO…….you are as good as any of the finest presenters I’ve seen on UA-cam at what you do. And what you do covers a whole lot of ground. Your presentations are absolute clinics and they so darn informative and entertaining to watch. This entire episode was GOLD! The drill press segment in particular was wonderful. Would it be ok if I take a screenshot of your face, print it out and tape it to the inside of my workshop door? ………..(….asking for a friend……😉) Kudos……all the way from Canada……where there’s no truth to the rumour that belts and pulleys still operate our power tools………. By the way…..I was amused to read that one viewer didn’t understand why you continue to collect bits and drivers……yadda, yadda, yadda. I think it’s entirely understandable. You are a craftsman and an artist and deserving of whatever motivates, moves and maintains you. And I for one would be embarrassed to admit that element didn’t dawn on me…………sorry if I sound like a smarty pants…..
Thanks for the encouragement, Bob. My beginner wood shop shares space with a stalled 72 Super project with similar rot. As with woodworking, my skills are slowly improving to compete the vision but man, woodworking is so much more accessible than metal work!
I made the drill charging station. It has been a HUGE help in getting organized. I also built the drill press stand. I love having both of these in my shop. They’ve helped so much in getting more organized. I have the plans for the miter station. It’s on my list. Can’t wait to build it.
When I’m building a cabinet that will have edge banding, I cut all of my rips, and then edge band those 8’ pieces before make all of my crosscuts. Saves quite a bit of time.
It's great, I love every square inch of it. I'm getting ideas because I'm working on my own carpentry space. Somehow the pegboard and cabinets in my garage aren't doing it for me. And I also need to set up for garage sales and/or eBay selling. And I wish I had as few fasteners as you do. I've got about ten times that to go through, however I do have a couple drawer organizers, so my organization will be different, but just as easy to find what I need. Whenever I get my lazy arse off UA-cam and get it done!
I have an idea for your hardware drawer in your tool box. I purchased several of the small parts storage containers at harbor freight. Shave off the hinges and edges around them and they fit perfectly in the tool box drawers. For larger drawers, buy the bigger ones. I also used the old plastic parts bin trays that slide out and put in the drawers. They fit as well It looks very professional now and everything is well organized.
I absolutely love the rolling shop-vac setup. Super nice! If/when I get to have a shop, that might be the first thing I make (well, after a MEGA-accurate cross-cut sled... because we all MUST make one of those).
First…great job on your shop and showing little tips and tricks. Second… curious why you didn’t simply remove the hinge from the top of the box the Fostner bits were in? It was already organized and labeled. Also, because the box was shallower than the drawer… perhaps another small sliding tray could have been added above for individual loose bits. Or pencils or something small. Other than that… everything looks Great!!!
Don't know if you've thought about it but, for your counter top, you could've easily taken some "hard board" and recessed that into the top. As you said, it's a work surface and hard board is a very protective surface if you think about it. Your saw blades, I do suggest you be careful with them, if you have carbide blades, you don't want them hitting each other or you take a chance of the tips breaking off.
Prefinished Maple... that's all I need to know... Prefinished Maple. Thanks for not saying it at the beginning, made me watch and what a great video. As a newer woodworker knowing my next step is to build a shop, you have provided a wealth of knowledge and ideas. Thank you. In southeastern NC, plywood is stupid expensive. I am heading to my supplier to see what they are getting for Prefinished Maple. I think they were upward of $130-150 a sheet. Crazy but may have to stick with cheaper at this point. Always go to 11.
Thanks for all these great tips and the instruction. I’m having a workshop constructed right now and I’m starting with a blank slate and this is giving me many great ideas.
I acquire a lot of woodworking tools AFTER a local cabin maker had passed away, and his wife had to foreclose on the house. His tooIs live on as I bought almost everything in his shop. I was able to pick up the porter cable pocket hole machine which looks similar to yours for a hundred bucks. I love it, it uses two routers underneath real heavy duty!
Hey man, not sure you name but i saw your i quit video and wanted to first saw welcome to Tennessee. and to thank you for sharing your journey. I've been trying for 9 years to convince my Wife that we have enough yard in the back to build a shop. So pray for me.
There are a few forstner bits in my shop that might compete for world’s dullest…. But they can always make 1 more hole right😂. Seriously though, I found that if you have a set and the hole size isn’t that critical, pick an old-ball size. 1” always worn out 1-1/16” cuts like new.
I really enjoy your content. I’m in the process of building out my shop now and really like your upgrade ideas. Will definitely incorporate some of these.
I like those pretty i gauge blocks, but if you are just starting out and the budget is tight you might want to consider using key stock instead especially if you typically only use a few sizes such as 1/8", 1.4" and 3/8". Other sizes can be made by combining the aforementioned ones. I have been using 12" long key stock which spans an entire table saw blade.
I never saw any videos on upgrades for a drill press before this video. But I have to say that great minds think alike. I built a larger platform for my drill press. I even had put T- track just like you! I wish I added the sacrificial center. And yours is about 30% larger then mine, and I like it. I think I'm gonna rebuild it.
51:08, to square the complete frame, you should take your angled measurement from the middle of two opposite legs. Doing it as per picture will only square one side.
I was listening to this as was ten minutes into looking for my file and recognizing that I will have to add a file to my list of things to buy when I go to the store this afternoon. I guarantee that I’ll find the file (along with the receipt for the pliers set I want to return) as I clean up.
Hey. Would you happen to have a link where I can get the world's dullest Forstner bit? I want to make sure I have the right gear to replicate your results 😉
One idea for the drill press vacuum attachment - how about having it connected with a t-bolt so it can move up and down the t-track? This way you don't need to make an extra hole in the table and you can more easily adjust its position as needed.
You could do that too as long as it wasn't getting in the way of the work piece! And you'd have to figure out how to run the t bolt so it could be tightened with a knob and not interfere with the hose 😄
@@MWAWoodworks True - sadly it's hard to get a good location in general given the variety of workpieces I'm using. You could use a knob or similar to hold it down.
In regards to the drill press stand, like the idea of a sliding top shelf👍. The one thing I didn’t understand is why screw the blocks to the base when you’re attaching the castors to the bottom. No need to use screws for blocks when need to screw the castors in anyway? What am I missing here. New to woodworking so looking for any advice . Keep up the great videos. Thanks
Your shop organization is absolutely the BEST one out there. Thank you! One question: I also have a Bora centipede and ask you what is the light wt. material that you use on it as a spoilboard? Is it a 1" or 2" sheet of insulation?
Plenty of helpful hints for a beginner cabinet maker like myself. I just wish there was somewhere in the UK that would sell pre-finished plywood sheets. Any suggestions?
Great video. Love the ideas and as always, entertaining. Couldn’t find the link to the small clear storage containers. Would like to get some for my own shop.
You could definitely use MDF. I just wanted the top to look like wood and not MDF. Alternatively you could use MDF and add Formica on top for a super durable and clean look!
Can you advise the actual diam. of the hole that you cut for the Oneida bucket? I have an Oneida system much the same as your earlier one and based on this video I now have the Milwaukee vac and am starting to build a new one similar to your design. If you have the actual diam. available it would save me some of that trial and error time in cutting the hole. Thanks again.
I've learned to not make slots the exact size of what I intend to keep in them, as I've done this several times and then things change and I either don't use those products anymore or they can simply change the packaging and then the spot you specifically made to fit said product is about useless. I try to make more standard-sized compartments so they stay versitle, but that's just me
I don't understand why you have a "growing collection of drills and drivers." I get having a drill and a separate driver. I even get that, for a professional or semi-professional, having a couple of each can allow you to leave a certain bit in one and a different bit in another so you can swap between them without having to physically change the bit dozens of times. I don't see why you need 6, 7, 8 or more though.
@@MWAWoodworksI was thinking the same thing. As someone who is FAR from a “pro” woodworker, and much closer to a “beginner” wood worker, even I am on my 3rd set of drill/driver combos. My first was a black and decker set in pretty sure my mom bought me when I first moved out 17 years ago! It did the job for basic screw driving and basic pilot holes and such. Then I found a great Ryobi sale about 7-8 years ago. They had a 8 tool combo for like $500 and came with batteries, chargers and a bag to carry them in. And the drill/driver I got from that was FAR better. But now that I’ve started to really dive into the beginner woodworker/intermediate DIYer lifestyle, I recently purchased my new Flex tools drill/driver along with several of their other tools as I’ve really grown to like them. So I now have 3 different brands of drills/drivers, 3 brands of orbital sanders, 2 brands of circular saws and on and on. So I can totally see someone like yourself having even more than I do! Def not a hard thing to do! Plus, if you are anything like myself, sometimes different brands come out with some cool stuff… and I like cool stuff… my wallet doesn’t so much enjoy that… but everyone has their vices I suppose! Anyways, love your videos man. I’m really considering trying to build some cabinets and maybe even ATTEMPT to somewhat recreate your miter saw station… doubt it will look as good but I’m sure I’ll learn plenty along the way!
I have a beater set that I use for stuff like mixing thinset mortal (porter cable) Then my bosch 12v for drywall and cabinet stuff. Then my my new craftsman for driving torx bits and shop duties. The craftsman batteries are cheap and the range of tools is broad. So I can get big batteries cheaper to run things like my string trimmer. Most of my use lies between the bosch and craftsman. My bosch 18v 6.5in circular saw is perfect!
I often leave tools at the jobsite, the shop, and at home so having multiple sets of drills and drivers makes perfect sense to me. Especially when you run into tasks that require repeated processes involving multiple different types of drill bits and driver bits. Switching to sidearm is faster than reloading.
@33:25 - "i'm going to eliminate steps" - so instead of just 30 seconds of removing the lid of the forstner bit box, and voilla a perfect storage solution with one step retrieval and replacement...
Hi. The presentation is extremely informative, elaborated, and elucidated. I am a diy. What kind of a drill press do you recommend for me. I appreciate your input. Thanks
I've watched your miter saw table vids, but notice in other vids that you have a box hood for dust/chip collection over the saw. I couldn't find a vid in your collection that featured the hood. Can you please help me with a link if you have made that vid? Thanks
Great video! Hey, had an idea. I really like how you give links to all your cool tools and hardware. However, I’m thinking it might be even better if you had a link to a “store”page, where you have ALL the links to ALL the items you discuss or show on ALL your videos! A catalog if you will. This would be very handy to be able to go and find stuff when needed to buy. Yes, I know o can search Amazon, but as all of us know, the Amazon search engine leaves much to be desired, often forcing you to wade through dozens of irrelevant links and then often still not finding what one wants… only to then find exactly what is wanted on a site like yours! It would not have to have pics (KISS) unless you wanted, but organized by topic we could easily find things that have been vetted by someone like you and via affiliate link you benefit too.. anyhow thanks!
For the glue storage: Why not drawers instead of sliding shelves and door? The door if not completely open every time will get scraped by the sliding shelf.
I only really use the small d handled driver. It's more like an electric screwdriver with very fine control. Perfect for small spaces and fine detail work. Other than that I like my Milwaukee and DeWalt drivers.
Hahahaha, drill press upgrades section, Forstner bit, 1 15/16". Another segment, i think in the drill charging station section, was 22/32", isn't that 11/16"? And people think the metric system is fkd-up. 🤣 Great video though. One day i'm going to get around to converting my garage.
One question I have after seeing this and many other shop idea videos is.. Why do people have a need for so many different cordless drills? Why would you need more than 1 drill and 1 driver of the same type/size?
I love how creative this guy is but the damn cost of plywood is ridiculous where I live. We're talking nearly $100 a sheet for just decent plywood- Birch is about twice that. I would be better off ordering everything off Amazon. It's sad, because I'd love nothing more than to do this but I'm not spending 5 grand on my woodshop storage.

Great video Matt, i’m in the shop this Sunday morning working on my new miter station from your plans.
Awesome 😎
I wish I could get maple or baltic birch around here... I have to settle for poplar from the big box store.
Great Video! Love the Saw Blade Storage Slide. I could not figure a way to store mine that I was comfortable with til i saw your soultion! Thanks!
Great Video. This is useful as I am currently converting my garage into a workshop.
Lots of ideas in this great compilation. Thank you for sharing.
That drill press table is awesome! And, FYI, I saw that Formica is selling direct to consumers on their website. Ships straight to your house.

Welp…think I just found my new favorite woodworking channel
Thanks for all the tips.

Top Video, a very, very nice Worhshop. Greetings from Vienna, Reini
Tip; When stacking snack containers - it could be good idea to put labels on top too...
Drill press upgrades are easy and very good indeed.
Excellent organization! 👍
Brilliant ideas thank you for your help

It's a sheet of Owens Corning pink foam insulation. I'd say it's maybe 1.5" thick.
I'm still new to woodworking and I already got 3 chargers. I might think big and build your drill charging station right away :D
Oh no! 3 chargers... It's all down hill from there sorry to say you better get building 🤣😂
Plenty of helpful hints for a beginner cabinet maker like myself. I just wish there was somewhere in the UK that would sell pre-finished plywood sheets. Any suggestions?

16:33 out of curiosity, why not use countertop MDF for the double layer countertop? Not through the video yet😂, but I’m loving the design
You could definitely use MDF. I just wanted the top to look like wood and not MDF. Alternatively you could use MDF and add Formica on top for a super durable and clean look!
I missed the link to the clear plastic storage containers with lids on them. Could you please tell me what they are and where you got them?
It would be handy to know what size of T-channel you used in each application, and what size matches the saw table slots and your mitre fence slide
Can you advise the actual diam. of the hole that you cut for the Oneida bucket? I have an Oneida system much the same as your earlier one and based on this video I now have the Milwaukee vac and am starting to build a new one similar to your design. If you have the actual diam. available it would save me some of that trial and error time in cutting the hole. Thanks again.

What grade plywood are you using? I'm very new to woodworking but am going to be building a shop here pretty soon.
What kind of mask is it that you use? I’ve noticed it a few times and it looks small and nifty but effective
regarding the shop vac is the one you used the 6 gal Milwaukee version?

Nice job dude, but does she have room to put the car in the garage now ? Like at my shop ! Lol
Haha well I have a 3 car garage but even still nobody in Tennessee parks in their garages 😂
is that the Dubby cross cut sled? If so, how do you like them? May I assume you got the pair?
No, I built this one myself
Can I get a link for the extruded aluminum fence please?
For the glue storage: Why not drawers instead of sliding shelves and door? The door if not completely open every time will get scraped by the sliding shelf.
Do you pre coat your plywood with a finish or does it come off the rack lick that? In New Zealand we are limited in our supply of plywood finishs
It comes that way
We can get that type of precoated ply here, it's called formply. Used for making forms to pour concrete into.
@@MrIdiotkiwi Cheers, I was referring to the non black finish . Form ply as you say is for concrete.
Do you have a link for the drawer organizer bins? Having difficulty finding through Amazon. Those look a way better alternative to the akro-bins
These? amzn.to/3R5JJaY
Waw it s Amazing 😉🇧🇪
That foam doesn't dull the blade quicker? Looks dense
It's basically like Styrofoam
How do you cut pre-finished ply without it splintering and looking like crap when you’re done?
I cut it just like I did in this video 😂
What makes a Festool drill or driver worth the higher price tag?
I only really use the small d handled driver. It's more like an electric screwdriver with very fine control. Perfect for small spaces and fine detail work. Other than that I like my Milwaukee and DeWalt drivers.
The counter top mar is like having a new truck. It will eventually get a dent so you might as well be the one to do it.
Were you routing the T track groves with the flat side of the router base?
It my memory serves I think he was just using a circle base; meaning it can contact the fence at any point and be the same distance from the bit.
Hahahaha, drill press upgrades section, Forstner bit, 1 15/16". Another segment, i think in the drill charging station section, was 22/32", isn't that 11/16"? And people think the metric system is fkd-up. 🤣
Great video though.
One day i'm going to get around to converting my garage.
A big forstner bit set comes with bits every 1/16th of an inch. Pretty good when you need just the right size hole!
how about mounting your track on your garage door?
I do that! I use Track Racks from Fastfap
One question I have after seeing this and many other shop idea videos is.. Why do people have a need for so many different cordless drills? Why would you need more than 1 drill and 1 driver of the same type/size?
I've collected them over 15 years mostly out of curiosity of differing brands since I make content about tools. Also, I like drills.
You have a link or name of your table saw? looking to buy one soon

Very cool! Ill adopt so e of this to my Basement Shop
Man don't say one day build if you're targeting green woodworker! Getting my hopes up! Still a great job
I like to be inspirational! 🤣
@@MWAWoodworks because you do it so well!
We golf using the pros numbers but in reality par for me is +15 or better. I’m close on the easy one but way off on the harder !😁
My experience is this will be easier to achieve than par 🤣🤣🤣
@@MWAWoodworks you do make it look so easy, I think I overtime everything and it holds me back
Is there a coupon code for the plan bundles
No the plan bundles are heavily discounted every day!
I love how creative this guy is but the damn cost of plywood is ridiculous where I live. We're talking nearly $100 a sheet for just decent plywood- Birch is about twice that. I would be better off ordering everything off Amazon. It's sad, because I'd love nothing more than to do this but I'm not spending 5 grand on my woodshop storage.
do a complete cost breakdown
Secret finish 🤫😅
Why do you have that many drills?
