Dear Marius,
Thank you for another very clever and informative video. I always enjoy your content and look forward to your next one. I am sure it will be worth waiting for.
Heeey, nice to see you again!
Can't wait for the project videos. You're awesome!
Thanks for all your videos. You give hope to all who have limited space.
I enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing them with us. Your channel is my favorite.
I made the levelling feet for my homemade CNC router in the exact same way a few years back. I also glued 5mm thick leather below the feet for a softer contact with the ground.
Amazing timing. I assembled a massive work bench top that developed a nasty cup on both sides and I need to figure out the best way to make it flat, so I can assemble the whole thing. Your video gave me a few ideas on how I'll do it.
I've used this very same method for making adjustable feet and it works wonderfully!
The string leveling tip is awesome, thanks. My little patreon support already is already paid off! Thanks
Careful with what you ask for...because you just might get it! Congratulations on your gifts.
This is brilliant! I will have to come back to this video when I make my bench top, which might be fairly soon.
Really helpful video about using the cross strings. You have a great channel. 👍🏻
Love your videos Marius. Very inspirational.
Like the levelling system you have made.
Very easy to replicate and infinitely adjustable. 👍
What an awesome saw. You deserve it and kudos to the person that gifted it to you. I have a crappy hand me down Bosch that stalls from time to time, but it will not die. They make good tools. And that one is a beast.
Ou peut,en trouver une documentation en français du pistolet a plombs chiappa
As far as the blue series Bosch goes, You can buy spare parts for even 30 year old machines with Your Bosch dealer - no problem to rebuild Your problem thingy and have a better machine afterwards than about 90 % of new ones on the market; for a fraction of he price, of course, Bosch spares are reasonably priced.
Great video and perfect audio! I love your solution for sped up footage.
Nicely job!.I will use your idea. Thank you.
If you drill the hole in the plywood foot base a little larger than the head of the bolt, it won’t be necessary to chisel it out to the exact size of the bolt head (3:20), then don’t tighten the nut down completely before drilling it for the pin. That way the plywood foot base will not have to turn to raise or lower the leg. You would still put a wrench on the nut like you show in the video, but the base can stay stationary because the bolt head has room to turn inside of the foot base.
If you let the head of the bolt spin in the bottom block you would be ale to just spin the bolt and this raise / lower that corner without having to overcome the friction of the block on the floor but you would need two wrenches to lock the bolt in place. :-)
Thanks a ton for sharing this update video and I look forward to your new build series.
I think you do beautiful work. Love your video's. I also agree with Zaphod Trenchcoat!
Co-Planar... Wow I've not heard that term for while! You've made my day.
Another excellent video. Thank you. You're one of the best maker channels on UA-cam; up there with Matthias Wandel.
Well done young man.
I built some similar leveling feet a while back. If you cut them on the CNC you can make the hex pocket at the same time. Using a 1/4" diameter bit you'll get a slight radius in the corner, but not enough to prevent driving the bolt in. I tightened the bolt and nut on the washer before screwing the washer down so I could put a wrench on the bolt instead of depending on the wood as a wrench. I didn't bother with the pin through the nut.
The string method is also used to tune a CNC machine. With your adjustable side rails you could skip the leveling feet and just put the strings on the rails and adjust them. However, a fine adjustment would be more difficult than with the threaded feet.
It dawned on my last night that just leveling the rails you couldn't get the two sides parallel. I had in mind flattening one side and then running it through a planer. I used to do that for boards wider than my jointer and narrower than my planer. Now I have a combination machine so they are the same width. For wider slabs I flatten on the CNC (same process as this just semi-automated) and of course have to flip them over to get them parallel, so you do need the cross bars that support the slab (CNC table in my case) co-planer and parallel to the sled support rails.
Congratz on your new saw!
I use carriage bolts for my leveling feet. The round head gives a couple degrees of freedom.
Clever idea which I will use!
Just slight care on the leveling feet, because the captive nut in the beams has a little travel room, when you tighten the nut against the washer to lock the leg in place the beam moves up by the amount that the captive nut can travel (it was at the top of it's cavity, but when you tighten it it is forced down against the washer plate)
@ 5:25 you can see how it lifts when thightening
Think about wire for cross strings with a light to complete a circuit i'm going to try it next time i do this
That's a great idea, if you had one corner attached to a stepper motor with a worm drive you could make the assembly self-adjusting, essentially chase the point whee the two wires just touch, i.e. conduct electricity, and then back off ever so slightly and then that's level all by itself.
Brilliant idea with the wires instead of strings. :-)
I've just finished making my router plate, pretty easy with a handheld router and edge guide. I didn't think of the router table. Because a router bit doesn't plunge very will in the centre, (it will melt the plastic) I predrilled a 6mm hole at the plunge points.
A New Year and Another great Vid Marius :-)
Great project. I will use it
Awesome work
Always so good ideas!
Thanks for sharing !
Awesome video again! Super video mal wieder
bosch guys are very kind ........ :)
at 6 min for more efficient and easy use,I use two steel wires as switches, on a 12 Volt or less circuit (led). As long as the steel wires touch, the light is on.
i made the feets for my machines similar to yours, but using hockey pucks. they are cheap and take vibrations very good.
More videos?! Happy days! No more year long hiatuses!
Why haven’t I seen these feet before? As an avid watcher I’m now excited that there must be an unwatched vid somewhere!!
For some great coplanar thinking outside of the triangle check out Fireball Tool’s great metal working squares. Changed the way I weld stuff up (welding may be overly generous) and it’s one of those forehead slapping “why didn’t.....” things.
Oh, the reason why I haven’t seen these feet is that this channel is metric………! 🤭 (oh come on! It’s the best that I can do and it’s late at night here....)
Thanks for inspiring us all over again Marius. Great stuff!
That's nuts, dude!
That unwatched video should be easy to find. It is the only one you haven't [Like]-d yet
Anthon van der Neut thanks...that’s the logical solution that I was missing!
Hi, and again great content, simple and clear. Maybe you could tell a about how was your practice at the Felder factory and how your studies?
I forgot about the string method. It is used a lot in construction for making flat surfaces, not necessarily level surfaces. In your case, parallel is important, but angle is not. You could use this with the boards at 45 deg angle if you wanted to work at a slant, or if it is on a floor that is not level itself.
That's a great project, but I have a hand planer. It would be great to see one modified for the hand planer.
Really thank you!
Good video.
Excelente trabalho, parabéns! 👍👍👍
Very inspiring Marius; thank-you. what are the dimensions of your shop?
at 5:20 the beam gets lifted a little bit when you fasten the nut. am i seeing that right? i think thats because the nut has space inside the wood. maybe you can weld it to the washer so you do not unlevel the hole thing when you try to fasten it.
Not sure if it’s because he edited the video and faded into another shot where the position had changed slightly
I also see that ,but I think it's because no weight on the top to push the wood downwards.
@@tomeetjerry the weight is pushing it downwards... thats the problem, i guess. by fastening the nut everything gets pushed upwards again.
Yeah on 2nd view it looks to have a little play but that should not be a problem after an initial tightening. Prob would be better to epoxy the bolt in place though
@@HansPeter-ub2zuI guess it's the gap between the threads, maybe fasten them using hand torque will do just fine.
Instead of the string, have you thought about using a water level? 4 hoses/tubes joined like an octopus connected to a vertical clear tube at each corner, filled with colored water, some hash marks on the clear tubes to line the water up with. Granted it wouldn't pack away as well as your string but it would be a lot faster to set up.
Very cool.
You are a genius
Finally an angle grinder;)
Hey Marius, I have a few questions:
First, in your experience, how much force can you get out of a nut embedded in wood like you used here? I'm specifically wondering about softwood, but any info would be helpful.
Second, what earmuffs do you like? I remember you talking about a pair you had a long time ago, but I can't find that video right now.
Thanks, and keep up the good work,
Dan
I sold all my Makita battery tools after 20 years of using and changed to Bosch, would like to see your review on the saw.

Big LIKE 👍 from IRAQ 🇮🇶
Hi Marius,
Very nice planer setup, congratulations! My mind started to ramble when I saw your leveling mechanism with the two strings: how cool yould it be to use some conductive strings or wires that would close an electric path whenever they touch, powering an acoustic buzzer or LED? Like this, the upper string could be lowered slowly until you hear a beep or see the light go on, without having the need go go to the intersection point to check visually :) What do you think?
Greetings from Switzerland from a fellow engineer
Is here a wire that can act like string and can you use it on a long run?
1j1o1n1a1s That’s a very clever idea! I will try that on my build. Thanks
Eye ball centring sounds painful
How did you cut the hex holes for the bolt heads, was it just skill full chisel work? There's no tool your not worthy of, you are so intelligent and skilled, big respect.
Yes, just chisel work
Hello Marius, I want to ask you for a bit help with your 3D Printed 75mm hose. I told my teacher in my training (Ausbildung) about the hose segments because he searched for this to buy but it was to expensiv... We printed some parts but we want to make more adapters so we need the orginal 3D File, the best would be if it would be an original Inventor file... ? You would help him us alot
Thanks anyhow for the files so far... :D
Danke für jedes einzelne Video. Kurze Frage. Hat deine Bandsäge 16 oder 20Zoll?
16 Zoll
@@MariusHornberger Hab ich mir doch gedacht. Vor kurzem hat nämlich jemand in einem Video behauptet du hättest die 20er.
What model is that saw? It looks way bigger than the Bosch models I've seen before,.maybe my eyes are deceiving me.
It has a base for the track system. Bosch GKS GCE
7:56 Stop thinking 😂. Wenn ich auf der Arbeit sage "ich dachte....." sagt ein Kollege "Nicht denken!"
You can burn scrap wood in stove without any law regulation in Germany?
Raw wood, yes. Plywood, no.
I don’t think there is a law that pretends to burn plywood ...
The law is 1BImSchV and it allows a lot as long as there is not wood protection chemicals inside
@@peacekeeper5119
It only allows raw wood, briquettes, and coal.
SCWfan06 it depends how you define a stove. But in general you are allowed to do so.
👍🏻👊🏻
Anstatt jedes Mal die Fäden aufzuspannen könnte man auch einfach über die beiden Balken peilen. Dann sieht man schon, ob sie parallel sind, oder nicht :)
Eigentlich schon. Aber wenn das Werkstück ca 250€ wert ist, dann investiere ich lieber schnell ein paar Minuten. Es geht aber auch wirklich schnell, wenn man's nicht filmen muss
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Wäre es möglich diese "Nuss" für den Kombi Hobel bei dir zu bestellen? Ich habe dasselbe Gerät und das Kurbeln nervt tierisch :)
In diesen Video gibt es keine Nuss, was meinst du?

In the feet, Why not soldering the nut instead of the pin?
I don't have a soldering iron that powerful
Marius Hornberger I was thinking more at tig mig or electrode :)
But that's welding...I don't have a welder
Marius Hornberger LOL good motivation :)
IMHO is fundamental in the home shop think at a good TIG welder, anyway very good job!
3:50 Is that a PH2 driver on a PZ2 sc...and it slipped :(
Yeah, in a small job like this it really doesn't matter. You can just toss the whole thing away and make a new one if really needed. Seriously though. Surprisingly few are even aware that PH2 and PZ2 screws are different in the first place, and require different drivers. I've seen so, so many screws and bolts beyond all hope it hurts.
Yes, it was the wrong driver. But as you mentioned it doesn't matter here.
There's another method for removing lots of wood to make a level piece of timber. You can view it at ua-cam.com/video/sXyYq5k5ZCY/v-deo.html. It seems quite clever and removes the minimum amount of wood required. Another great video on your part - well done.
Does the bosch saw have a lot of blade deflection? I have a cordless porter cable and the blade deflects probably about 15 degrees with moderate pressure. Enough to REALLY screw up a cut. My crappy fix requires adjustment every time the blade depth is changed and is a PITA.
It's not perfect but the blade deflection is very minimal. And the depth adjustment is good, I like it
Hm, I'm early this time
Did you use the router to cut your hair?
man this will turn you fucking nuts, every time you adjust level and try to lock nut it will throw your adjustment out of range, with standard bolts the backlash is enormous. hope you don`t need that accuracy. take care. peter
Your tightening thing how you explained it won't work. @Hans Peter already explained it.
yes it does. You just have to work with it.
