Thanks for the cleaner bucket idea. Definitely need to keep blades and bits clean.
Searching Yoshino B2000 SST give me LiFePo4 powerpack which is not a solide state battery. Are yoshino sst discontinued?
I don't see a link for Ostrich feathers.. 🤔
I was excited to check out those ostrich feathers you suggested too, looked handy & I couldn't find them anywhere. Maybe you can provide that info next time. My kid would love using it when working with me.
I'd like to point out that you have been lead up the garden path with the battery buzzwords. There is no viable "solid-state" battery on the market in any commercial form yet, and not likely to be for many years, the best we have at the moment is LiFePO4. As for being "the only one" when it comes to solid state electronics, this is also demonstrably false. We have been making and using solid state inverters for 30+ years, it doesn't make sense to manufacture them any other way, it's the cheapest and most efficient method of inverting power. A good example is your cheap after market car amplifiers, they have inbuilt inverters to step the voltage up from 12V to 60+V as this is what is required to obtain 60W+ RMS of audio. Before continuing to use the term "solid-state" please do some research on what it actually means.
Based on the advertising material you show there, it's a 1.1kW battery, in this package size there is zero doubt this is a LiFePO4 battery.
Interesting to see how the internet has taken the craft of woodworking and turned it into marketing.
Just like the guys selling shovels during the gold rush.
What a trip
That was the case long before the internet. Go watch a "This old House" and notice the product positioning. The woodshop guy hawked products as well. It's also prevalent in the DIY auto garage genre of shows.
I emphatically agree regarding the woodpecker track saw Square! I have had mine for about three years, and I have never used it for anything other than 90° cuts. Unfortunately, TSO‘s Square was new at the time if it was available at all. If I could do it over, I definitely would’ve went that route. Having said that, I will be getting their parallel guides.
Ostrich feathers made into a duster always worked well for cleaning around the shop. Love your vids, keep them coming!
Wow. You really packed a lot into this video. I've been a carpenter/cabinetmaker for over 20 years and I learned a lot. Peace out.
Eric, I just came across some of your older vids (I bet you can guess which ones) and that led me to the actual woodworking ones. I love them. I've subscribed and I'm looking forward to exploring your back catalogue along with your new stuff.
Ostrich feathers, great video. As a retiree woodworking and knife making which I do go hand and hand. Your ideas are point on keep up the good work man.
I'm in the same boat for being in a 1 car apartment garage, 1 outlet no breaker and never would've considered a PowerStation for running things like a planer or bigger tools. Definitely gonna be picking one of those up ASAP. Also gotta say, the dust collector in the rafters is genius!
I wonder if it would be possible to put an in-line breaker between the outlet and the main panel, that way the maintenance wouldn't have to come for evry tripped breaker.
Even if you already own a drill press the drill guides come in very handy for when you can't use a drill press. Like you said for the price its a no brainer!
I've always found ostrich feathers are great for sweeping up saw dust from behind my machinery. The Pica marker is definitely the best marker I've used.
I have been using 1.1mm mechanical pencils for years. This was a result of the 1.1mm mechanical pencils we used in the Air Force.
My favorite has been a double ended twist pencils with regular, red, green, or blue.
Ostrich feathers are a surprisingly useful natural tool accessory. Cut to size they can make a great flap sander replacement.
Sounds way safer than when they're still on the ostrich that is trying to flap you with those same feathers.
THANK YOU! Noise cancelation is not hearing protection! My earbuds were $6,000,. . . ok, they are hearing aids, but the Bluetooth music through them is amazing because they are totally tuned to my hearing loss. That said, I often have to take them out when doing loud work to put in plugs, though sometimes, I'll shut them off and just put the muffs over them, that is, until I go to the range, where I use plugs and muffs.
Very informative video. While I've done little projects for years, I recently put a lot of my skills together while building out new shelving in the back of my new work van and number one tool I wish I had was a track saw, but lived with a set of straight edges, clamps and the tape measure.
You earned my subscription with this video.
I've always been fond of using Ostrich Feathers with a bit of water and low volt electric to make unique patterns
Ostrich Feathers work great for a lot of different applications. Thanks for the ideas and video.
Thanks Eric for this list. I own many of these items, but now have a few more for my wish list - just in time for Christmas. Bonus, most are low priced & almost all will fit in my stocking (getting the hint santa?). Seriously, thanks for putting this list together. I always learn something from your videos. Today’s practical tip was leaving a ~1/16” gap between tracks when connecting them. I haven’t needed to connect my tracks yet, but now I know what to do. A smart person learns from their mistakes. A wise person learns from the mistakes - of others….
consume, consume, CONSUME!
Thanks for the new track saw square idea- for $189 bucks.
I built my own from scrap basically for free and it works great!
Merry Christmas and thank you for the video.
Ostrich feathers make great Christmas decorations.
Will definitely be looking into a couple of those items! Thanks, thanks for the video
Elgin Ruckus are great, they actually stay in my ears unlike nearly every other in-ear headphone I've tried. I'd also say look at the Bora Centipede if you need to modify your work space a lot. Being able to set up a large work table for some jobs then teardown in a minute to make room for other stuff is great. Their workbench table pieces are expensive, but you can make your own.
I’ll check Bora out, thks. For plain earbuds, not hearing pro, I like QCY a lot: reasonable sound quality, very lightweight, cheap - TC-13ANC ~US$25.00, and they stay in my ears, unlike ibuds. Also, hate to say it, but Bose earbuds stay in well. Not ear-pro either though. Also not cheap. If I were to spen the $ for sound quality in earbuds, it would be for Sony. Also not ear-pro!
Checked Bora out - looks like some folks like their customer service…also looks like they have and need lots of practice. Take their straight edge clamp. Too many issues!
So many other creators make lists like this but THIS is a really good list!!
Pica is great, BUT I'd recommend getting the HB graphite fillings immediately the B2 (or whatever comes standard) is very soft and you'll be sharpening after every single mark if you want a fine line.
Great video. I just subscribed to your channel. I really admire guys such as yourself who are able to work with what they have- a small shop- and put out great work. I do believe this helps make people better woodworkers. Thank you for tips and suggestions. I also like that you are not bombastic in your presentation. Good work.
Quality video and audio, very well spoken, informative and a joy to watch, thank you! Keep it up! Admire your devotion in a confined space.
Some real gems here, thank you! Love the table and also the bit cleaning contraption.
Ostridge Feathers are a poor substitute for down in my winter underwear! I wish I had seen this video before I installed a new subpanel to supply power to all my tools even though I only use them one at a time. I am grateful for your sharing knowledge and the method you have to do so.
I have a set of 3M Worktunes bluetooth hearing protection. They work exceptionally well with awesome range. I've taken phone calls while sitting on my Kubota garden tractor while it's running and they can hear me okay. There are times I would rather have something smaller to use like when I'm in the workshop. Thanks for suggesting the Elgin products. I'll look into them.
I also use the worktunes, and love the sound they produce. I prefer them over those things you stick in your ears (comfort), not to mention losing one of those small expensive pieces won't happen with the headset.
While I have never used ostrich feathers, I'm not surprised they work so well. Nature is amazing!
There is a part of me that does wonder how you came up with ostrich feathers, but I am content in not knowing. Thank you for the great share outs!
Hope to have a workroom set up in my basement before I turn 65 in January. Ostrich feathers will be great to clean the area. 🎉
I've been using the OXGEAR version of the mechanical pencil for a few months now and I love it, so convenient.
Just found your channel. Not a wood worker, just an enthusiast. Bought the pica pencil through your link and will likely get a couple other things. Also did the ostrich feathers. Great video. I subbed. Merry Christmas.
Hey Sir, I think you are my favorite subscriber on UA-cam. I found you while up at 2 am feeding my kiddo. You have a way of connecting with the camera. Your information seems very helpful, trustworthy, and genuine. Keep making videos. I have been wanting to pick up woodworking for a good three years as a hobby. I keep making excuses on not starting. I think as a result of this video I may finally start. Thank you!
I like that you do everything in a small shop like most of us. Great channel.
Tool #11 that you need is a dustmask. Your dust extractor will still blow very fine dust back into your garage and not all dust is captured at the tool (even with Festool). I have a versaflo mask from my dayjob that I use at home while carpenting. Bit overkill maybe but it has a fan with filter, an option for earcaps with bluetooth (radio/phone), protects your eyes and if you get the welding face shield with it then your can use it for that too.
True. Silicosis is the new Asbestosis - every kind of stone cutting is going to be an OHS issue very soon.
Ho-lay! There may be other models, but the first “versaflo mask” I priced was US$1800! I’ll bet it’s good at that price! I’ll bet thereother good powered masks, maybe one that’s “good enough” for casual use, but less than the tablesaw I want to buy, used!
Ostrich feathers and the Kreg Drill guide always come in handy. Used the kreg tool to drill some tricky stainless steel tubing, was a little concerned at first, the drill guide made it a snap. (And 3in1 oil for the bit.)
When it comes to the Flush Trim router bit, I actually would recommend the newer models that also utilize the carbide inserts similar to the helical cutter head used in planers
you should definitely do a video on how you manage your electricity and outlets... I also work in a one car garage with one outlet and would be curious how you get things done
for the router bits, when looking for them online they are called compression bits. you can also get end mills like that. keep in mind those are amazing for laminates, plywoods, and yeah. hardwood (although straight honestly works... just fine for hardwood). in the video i saw you use the compression bit on mdf.. that in my experience decreases the lifespan by ALOT. those tools are usually sharpenable 2-3 times but the mdf really tears it a new one and you will not get the best return on your investment. keep an old one for mdf, it doesnt require sharpness really anyways, just the shearing angle to get the surface nice and clean.
As a biker who loves to travel a lot, the Rebel ear protection looks great. I will look into them for my big 2024 ride.
Grip it like nobody is watching.
My dad had a cabinet business and had a lot of Festool power tools. They are top quality tools. Unfortunately they are very very expensive too!
sometimes i think that ostrich feathers are the best for causing mass chaos when thrown from tall buildings. even more so if still attached to the bird! great list!
This is a great video! I hadn’t heard of the track square thing before but I need one. I enjoyed the “grow up”. I enjoyed the frequent enthusiastic waving at the camera. Just generally helpful good vibes 😎 I’ve subscribed 👍
Getting a large pencil lead holder is quite helpful. Can't speak for the one demonstrated in video, but getting a 2mm lead holder in general is great. Durable tip when marking, lots of different colors available, and the lead holders are inexpensive enough to have a few for quick access to different colors.
I have a 3mm mechanical pencil I got from Temu. I haven’t had a need to use it yet, but I’m sure it’s much better than the ever breaking thin crap we’ve all used. I’ve used carpenters pencils for decades. I can sharpen them to a needle point with a utility knife.
For what it’s worth I have that exact pencil and it’s hard to go back to something else. I like mine. For $5 it’s worth it.
There's a similar one from a brand called Tracer, they call it a "Deep hole construction pencil" £15 gets you the pencil, holster (Has a sharpener built into the pocket clip instead of awkwardly stuck on the end) and a lead holder with 6 spare leads, add another £2 and you can upgrade to a triple pack that adds a permanent marker in the same deep hole style (For any Brits reading, Screwfix or Toolstation usually have them in stock)
No idea what the availability or price of these are in the US or elsewhere, but I learned of it from a US creator so I'd imagine they're available, I'll never use a normal pencil in the workshop again, in fact it tends to get used for any pencil task whether it's in the workshop or otherwise lol
I have Pica pencils and the pens are awesome - I use them for absolutely everything! Even writing my son's name on his school clothes! I also have a drill block/guide and for what I do it takes up a lot less space than a drill press and even fits in the drills carry case easily too!
I used to have one of those pens. But then my father came and helped me on a project the day before fathers day. He constantly misplaced his regular carpenters pen. So, I gave him my pen as a fathers day gift and I need to get a new one. Much more convenient than tying ostriche feathers to the pen to find it!
Ostrich feathers...such a great tool to clean and sharpen my chisels. A great investment! Lol Thanks for the video!
HOLY SHILL!! 30 minutes of sponsored ads in a 24 minute video
You're absolutely right. This guy is shilling. He's not a professional wood worker, except on UA-cam.
Never met a carpenter who use a trac saw. At lease not on the job site
Lol. Funny comment, but just because he may not have bought ALL those things does not make the info and recommendations any less valid. What would help would be a video on what is not so helpful. The only tool I regret buying in 40 or so years is a Port-a-line. It’s drill attachment to make perpendicular holes. I used it one or two times since I’ve had it. I have a drill press I bought used and I’ve used it many times since then. I will never be without one again. Having said that it’s not real convenient for edge drilling or large heavy pieces of wood or steel.
Is it too late to enter the contest?
I dunno. I walked away with a plan to buy that pencil!
Ostrich feather. Thank you for your tips. I hope it works out for you to go full time. Watch out for what you ask for, we just might get it!
Ostrich feathers are great to bundle as a duster and add a little panache (literally and figuratively) to the shop. Thanks for the recommendations, I see a few items to add to my wish lists.
I saw a drill block on ali or amazon and thought handy! I also saw a very small bit ratchet set and a handy! For not spending much or taking much space in toolbox, very handy indeed.
Thanks for this - I could have used those spiral flush cut router bits on a project I built 2-3 years ago!
Ostrich feathers are also an excellent tool to have in your shop.
my sister got me some earbuds last year that are pretty great, they block out just about all sounds and i can use them while running my chain saw without any pain in my relatively sensitive ears, they have great sound quality and you control your music/book by tapping them
At Woodcraft in Seattle, we (don't) hide our ostrich feathers in the drop-ceiling so when we need them we might forget where they aren't . . . I'm subscribed!!!
Ostrich feathers!!! The Pica pencils sound like a new take on the draftsman mechanical pencils of the 70’s. We had a desk spinner with a sandpaper cone inside to keep them sharp. Definitely recommend HB or 2B hardness to keep the point longer.
I don't do woorworking at all, but I love to see clever tools used in a clever way.
Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge with us newbie’s
The compression bit is a great tip. I make cabinets and we often have to cut a panel or counter top with a router in the field and it would be nice to not worry about laminated edges
i would prefer flush trim bit with swappable inserts with a top bearing so you can use the bit for groove cutting still
Was waiting for that one at the end.
Mum says good job by the way! 😉🤣😂🤣
Ostrich feathers... very informative video. I will be purchasing some of your recomendations!
These are the tools that make my hobby projects look professional.
Lovely tools...
One small tip, if your limited in power and have to wait before the fuse is replaced you can also put a breaker circuit in your shop, preferably just a bit lighter so that one breaks before the inaccessible one does. I did that in my shed because I found walking from the end of the garden to the actual breaker box costs me too much time, yeah I'm lazy ;)
Of course the power bank is still super handy there, but I'm not sure if it will power all of my stuff like compressor, welding machine. But thanks for the idea, combining it with the actual net power will help in certain situations.
I think all the ostrich feather comments are hilarious. Thanks for putting this list together. I've ordered several of the items already! Happy Holidays to everyone!
I sand a lot of smaller pieces (from 2" to 12") and I use a machine anti vibration mat, I used one under a mini CNC and realized the surface is very high friction and I can throw a 5" round board on it and sand without ever touching it, now some longer narrow pieces do move a little (never more than an inch or so) so I do keep a finger on them but this mat is amazing and changed my sanding forever. I had tried the same mat in your video and yea, it just slid around but the machine anti vibration mat does not.
Wow nice presentation.
I need a few of those things.
for sure a track, the mech pencil would be great
I have used kreig drill guides before, nice to see they offer a straight version.
yeah I have a drill press, but using it isnt always an option.
& feathers - thats a fun thing :)
Normal mechanical pencils come in thicker lead than 0.5mm which I used for years and they break all the time. I now use a 0.9mm for woodwork as well as sketching and general writing. I buy the Pentel Twist-Erase, great eraser too. They basically never break. Plenty sharp for general writing. Although the white lead pencil that writes on anything looks fantastic.
Ostrich feathers are grrrrrrrreeeeat! I really like the Pica pencil though. One of the best tools in my shop.
Ostrich feathers are a decent substitute for goose quill for all your permanent inking/marking needs.
Thanks for the video. I too have a very small shop space. Unfortunately I have a ton of stuff, from decades of carpentry, that I have to put somewhere. If I had started from scratch with a budget to by the basics I'd be super-organized already. I mean... nails (who uses hand nails anymore?) nuts bolts and screws of all size. All kinds of left over hardware. So I've got some. work to do cuz the projects are piling up.
Ostrich feathers are great... But I struggle with catching the little buggers!
OK... The pencil... Everything you recommended was cool, but I NEED that pencil NOW! LOL! Thanks for sharing!
Ostrich Feathers work great! Awesome tips my friend!!!
CHEESE. Best wishes young man! You are an inspiration to me for your perseverance. Happy holidays!!
Great video! Thank you for your time and energy you put into this
I like my Ostrich feathers safe to use even when im using my wireless buds , works great on the table saw
A lot of those Festool tools, look like you're buying tools, just to buy more tools. This is akin to creating more work for yourself ( something that I generally try to avoid ). In most engineering circles, the DRY principal is quite effective, and repeatable template patterns provide the most efficiency when used in larger quantities. I'm pretty sure that you could address many of the problems illustrated, with less cost, less effort, and higher ROI.
For hearing I'd also reccomend Plugfones! I've used them for over a decade in the shop and on my motorcycle
Ostrich feathers, come in handy for many things…. They make pencil sharpeners for carpenter pencils, so they’re not really that difficult to sharpen but nice sales pitch for the pencil. Also, Raycon makes really good earbuds and their far less expensive than many others.
Great suggestions. The links to the products was icing on the cake.
I like ostrich feathers too! Great video on tools to buy sooner.
Ostrich feathers are great for making designs in your paint as a stencil.
Great video, have learned some new things I wish could buy now, but eventually will be buying some of these, Chuck
Enjoyed the video. Only thing I disagree with is the no drill press. Bench tops are inexpensive, they don't take up much room and a god sent when you need one.
Ostrich feathers are soft, thanks for all the information
I feel you. The people who upgraded my 1880 house, and built the garage certainty were not craftsman. The whole garage is on one 15 amp circuit. That includes the decorative lights that are built into the brick wall that serves as a fence. I can't run the window A/C and the air compressor at the same time. I barely get away with running the A/C and my 6" Atlas lathe at the same time. Every time that I forget I have to walk to the house, go to the basement, and reset the breaker.
I'm honestly looking in to setting the garage up with a solar charged battery bank.
Ostrich feather. Great video. Thanks for the reviews.
Came here expecting to find tools I thought I might need... left knowing that all of these are commercials Affiliate links in the description!
My fav tool are ostrich feathers, one you get them all your sanding will be magically done
Having used several different BlueTooth "ear protective" earpods or headphones I found that they all have limited max volume levels on the volume controls. This is done to protect your hearing which I guess is good but means that you won't be able to hear your music or whatever while you are actually using your noisey tools.
I used to do a lot of work at construction sites, and found that using earplugs along with bone conduction headphones works extremely well.
tbh im using an old yoga mat as non slip thingy for sanding. works great as long as you put it on a clean table. if there's already a bunch of dust, the mat will happily slide on the layer of dust :D
Awesome video! Glad I found your channel. Here’s to you guys! Hope you can fulfill your dreams and go full time!
Ostrich feathers. Great video very informative. Thank you for the content.
+1 for the corded hearing protection + Earbuds. The FIRST time I used some without the cords that hang around my neck, one fell out of my ear, and ended up going through the blades of my table saw....RIP.
14:00 Those mats work perfectly. Your problem is that you have both, a very smooth table top, which most do not. Also you have a rather dirty table top, at least you did when you "tested" the mat. If you did not have either of these issues you would have a much better experience. Basically the dust is acting like a lubricant, yes, dust is a lubricant. Just check out the graphite dust in your torch converter. Anyway, to easily solve this problem you can just wipe your table top with a slightly damp cloth. Then wipe the side of the mat that with be facing down with the slightly damp cloth. This should remove the majority of the dust and prevent it sliding around on you.
"Well its a wood working shop, its going to be dusty". Yea, good point, but it almost seems like you set that up on purpose to make the mat look like it doesn't work just to promote that other product. Not saying thats what you did, but intentional or not you created the one situation where that mat would not work well which is also very easy to solve in less than 20 seconds.

Great video dude!
Ostrich feathers 🎉 Love them for decoration - just pop a bunch in a large vase - voila
Yeah, Ostrich Feathers in your dog holes....can't wait to see your vid on the outfeed table. I'm debating on 20mm or 3/4" holes on my outfeed table. I like the UKG stuff, but a little salty. Gotta love the phone home screen ;)
I made an incredible marking pencil using ostrich feathers… I found that it is easy to find and I can brush away the dust on the area I want to mark with the feather end.
I almost always use my drill press. love it.
As an alternative to the Kreg Drill guide, I have and really like, the Big Gator Tools drill guides. They are a little more money, have a lot more drill bit sizes per guide, and are made in the USA.
Oh, and Go Bucks!
