“I don’t care, it’s my tape measure.” Haha! I needed that.
Let the flaming begin!!!!🤣
Surprised no one has ridiculed me yet lol
Not trying to knock the guy but it always cracks me up when I see a UA-camr/ trying to be a woodworker discover a simple tool like a dust brush.
UJK also makes a “jig” to make your own MFT table: UJK Parf Guide System
I switched to Fastcap tape measures about 2-3 years ago and they are the best. I gave all my other brands away and now only have Fastcap. Their True32 5M tape is great and has a lot of helpful info printed on the tape, but their dual scale 12’ PMS-12 is hands down my favorite and is used everyday.
Jason, you are quite the salesman. I watched this when it was first released. Since then I bought five of the eight tools in this video.
This is the BEST video ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🤣🤣 thanks buddy
So timely. Had the TSO guides on my bench for a few days trying to figure out how to hang them. Thanks Jason. You and bourbon moth are the best wood working channels on you tube. Hands down
Thank you, I appreciate that
absolutely going to get the reaming tool once I upgrade my workbench. thanks for sharing jason
👊🏼👊🏼
Just used my thread detectors 30 min ago to purchase longer bolts for my drawer pulls.! Another great video.
I have been watching your channel for a while and just now noticed some of your wall art. I want to say thankyou for your service SSG. Hooah!
I appreciate that
I live in the UK. Benchdogs UK have just released some MFT plugs either in stainless steel or alumin(i)um. Also a chamfer tool which is magnetic to use with the steel version. I have ordered a steel set as I am always losing little bits down the holes. I believe that they now have a USA outlet.
You're so right about the reamer tool. I had some bench dogs that wouldn't fit until I got the reamer tool. Now all my bench dogs fit great. I wish I would have bought this before I bought the chamfer tool that you wore out your hands using. I did a couple of hundred holes yesterday and it was fast going with the reamer tool. Keep up the great videos.
i just bought it.
So nice to have!
I found the instruction on how to use a brush particularly helpful ...
I enjoyed the video - That’s a very unique list of tools. A nice addition to your Sedgley pouch would be a Giltek RUK knife. It’s much smaller than the knife you have in your pouch now, and it’s very versatile. It has a built-in bottle opener, and also a flat area to open paint cans and other lids.
Good recommendations! I have several of these, my favorites being the Sedgeley pouch, UJK reamer and my fastcap tape (imperial both sides). Obvious but I just bough the thread checking tools through your link, thanks for the tip.
The SEDGELEY is a winner for sure.
The Sedgley is one of my favorites, but I could be slightly biased 😃
👍👍
huh. @11:21 that's actually quite useful. I don't have to constantly turn on my vacuum or use my hand. So simple. Also got the thread-nut-on-a-rope thingy because the metal (large card) that I have doesn't have enough reference depth. So you have to be careful that you're not cross threading something. Thanks for the tip. And @15:40 as soon as I saw the MFT and the bit holder, I knew it was going to be the reamer/chamfer. It's a game changer! I love it.
I live by my fast cap tapes. I love the L/R and the 1/2 tape. So genius. And I've always been so jealous of the dog hole reamer. I have 3/4 holes and there's nothing in that domain for them.
Steve Ramsey did a test on letting tapes snap back and it finally broke at 9772 reps. All the while, it remained accurate. He tested the Stanley 12 foot tape. I'm sure your tapes are at least as robust as Stanley.
Maybe someone already mentioned this but having the thread checkers mounted on a piece of plywood or such makes it really easy to find and check the threads of whatever. It's how they're setup at my local hardware store!
The board mounted are good for loose nuts and bolts, but the ones on the wire let you check a threaded hole on something, or a stud sticking out.
its hard just use measure?.... you dont need tool for everything
@@martinbucek3603 You can measure threads by hand?
also i purchaed that tso mounting kit about a year ago on etsy. its been mounted to the wall in my enclosed trailer ever since and the parallel guides never move, not even the small rods or the driver. but something to consider is that the PLA they are made of does not like heat. when purchasing, request they use PETG or something with greater thermal properties. really shuldnt impact the already low price. i have multiple 3d printed parts throught my tool trailer and the ones that were done in PLA have "wilted" from the hot florida sun baking the trailer. but the parts made from PETG are straight and true, and safe in wet environments.
After watching the video advert i was still skeptical. But when i finally downloaded the plans ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxZF0EMnrujZvqHhGkxiz559uIABJWR9TG i was very impressed. The whole plan was just as you said in the video. Thank you very much. I now have a large and valuable collection for my woodworks. This is great!
Great list, thanks Jason. I think it’s funny that the blue Fastcap tape is a “16 foot” metric :)
rjtumble, in case you think it is a 16 feet tape, it is actually a 5 m tape; but yes putting feet label on the housing was not smart.
🤣
When it comes to tape measures, I’m becoming minimalist. I’m a plumber and always carried a 25’ tape. I kept a belt with a single pouch. Then I got the 9’ dewalt tape. It started as a back up I’d throw in my pocket. However 9’ covers 90% of the measurements I do so I find myself only using it. If I’m doing a rough in or top out (pipes underfloor or in walls) then I’ll pull out the 25’ but doing service and setting fixtures which is mostly what I do, the 9’ is perfect.
My boss always kepts a mini 10 foot tape in his pocket. Always used that, and used it quite often. I have a mini 12 foot i keep around myself.
@@ShotGunner5609 they’re the best. When I’m doing a top out or rough in then I’ll pull out the 25’. At my company I’m usually the service/set out guy so on those the little ones all I use
Digital callipers and a thread gauge take up a lot less space that the thread tester strings you demonstrated. Both fit in my main toolbox and take barely any room, and the callipers are already and essential item. There's nothing to stop a person having airline extensions. I have a 10M retractable, and two 10M extensions hanging on the wall. I love the dog hole reamer, and will be ordering one for sure
I have taken a kickback to the gut (3 stitches). so now I wear a welders apron. the thick leather will go a long way to protect against kickback. btw I got mine at harbor freight for cheap.
The horse hair brush was one of the best investments when I started woodworking. Even when I was renting shop space, I had one with me at all times. I found that using compressed air just made dust fly everywhere and I ended up having to keep my mask even when I wasn't making cuts. In the winter it was worse because we had to open the bay doors when using compressed air because we wanted to push dust outside. When I switched over to using a horse hair brush I could keep the dust local to an area and sweep when I'm done.
I just buy my brush from Harbor Freight for $2. So cheap I bought 3 of them. Works great
I think brush on vacuum cleaner is the best.
Man, I love this video. First time visitor, I will definitely check out your other videos. 👍🇨🇦 btw, I love the Festool hoodie.😊
Welcome aboard!
I just discovered your channel and subscribed. Thanks for the useful tools tips! I just wanted to commend you for your preference of metric! 😉 Thanks again for your videos... I'm excited to dive into your old videos!
Awesome, thank you!
Great video, Jason. From the tools, in the video, I can tell you are a craftsman that knows and understands quality.😉
Developing the habit of always putting things back in the pouch saves so much time. I have a pouch that has a velcro loop over a belt. There are others out there.
The thread finders are the best thing I ever bought.
Thread gages - I have had both sets for a long time - for the reasons you mentioned.
Great video! I just discovered your channel and I'm looking forward to watching the rest of your videos.
Welcome aboard!
The irony of the FastCap "metric only" blue tape having listed on the front the length of "16 feet" :D
I have the yellow with imperial/metric and it is very useful.
That did make me laugh, but I have just looked at mine, and it says 5m, perhaps they saw your post and corrected it.
@@marklane2359 haha interesting
Bench brushes are awesome. I have several lying around the shop.
Great viddy Jason! That bolt sorter is crazy. I have the TSO dogs and chamfer bit. Love it. I never thought about cleaning the dog holes.
Works like a charm!!
Just ordered a thread checker and added a couple of items to my Christmas Wish list. Great stocking stuffers my wife can buy me 😂
I bought mine a few weeks back. I bet I've used it a half dozen times already
I’m using an Original California Duster for a dusting brush, like 20 bucks or so, made for cars but really fluffy and useful because it grabs the fines while brushing away the heavier stuff. Take it outside & beat the dust & stubborn heavier bits off. It is a good brush! Check it out. I feel like it keeps more of the fines out of the air, while the ceiling air filtration can handle the rest. I got the new dewalt one, hepa, I think it is the best priced hepa right now. I like it so far. It’s replacement filters are cheap, has a medium & high stage, the CFM seems low but that thing blows pretty strong. I was worried about it, but it does its job well. Only dewalt thing in my shop, except for a few screwdrivers lol.
Re compressors: I have a small one (due to space issues) but what I use most is my Ryobi Cordless AirStrike Finish or Brad Nailer which works with the One+ batteries. Yes, heavy and not perfect but so far it has done what I needed.
Thank you Drill Sgt. for conditioning my mind and body!!!
You’re welcome turd…….. 🤣
I love my fastcap tapes. And, I can confirm that the track racks can hold the Makita.
I bet i have a dozen or more.
Great video for a newbie like me trying to build up my new shop!
The side carry bag (5:05) is nice, but one thing it seems to lack is a clip on the body above the main pocket so you can carry a tape measure. There appears to be plenty of room for one, so it be great if they added it. It is a must-have ability for me to have my FastCap Flatback cabinet tape on me. Removing the tape's clip and carrying in the pouch would work, but why when they could easily add a small clip.
BTW... i too love my FastCap tapes.
Thanks for the comment. The Sedgeley was designed per spec of Brian Sedgeley. The tape measure above the pocket would make it extremely difficult to gain access to the pocket. "Just adding" a clip is not so easy. ALL our tape measure clips are backed with a 4"x4" piece of veg tan leather for rigidity.
Maybe in the future we can come up with a V2....
It's not just glue that messes with the dog holes, because the top is mdf and the holes aren't sealed it will absorb moisture and swell slightly over time.
Those are some great shop extras. I'll be picking up a few of them this week. Thanks for the video~!
You’re welcome
The ujk dog hole reamer tool is a must have alright. Especially if you are using the ujk super dogs. Top video. Thank you. Cheers 👍😎🇦🇺
Thanks 👍
Thank you Drill Sergeant Bent, that was a informative and useful video.
No experience with the Flexilla reel, but the hoses themselves are probably the best I have used.
Thanks. Looking into getting the Flexilla
I use the FastCap guild rail holders on my garage doors. I had to have the tension on the doors changed due to the weight of multiple tracks. Also, mount them like Bent's, because I mounted mine "upside down" and the guide strip gets compressed and becomes unglued.
The biggest take away, and no brainer for me, was seeing the switch I assume you use for your air compressor. I'm going to need to put one in now.
Yes, that is what I use it for. It’s great
I think I missed the switch for the air compressor in the video. 🤷🏼♂️
@@bentswoodworking where did you get that switch?
Just bought a set of the thread gauges I didn't know they made them like that!!
So handy
Such a tease 😉. Went to etsy to get the TSO guide 3D printed holder. Does not ship to Canada. Will look if someone else has something or design and print my own.
I use the Fastcap flat back in my shop because it lays flat on the material
Super helpful video, Jason. Congratulations on your retirement and new gig as a Festool "ambassaDOR," and thank you so much for your 20 years of service. Currently I have a number of infrequently used bench-top tools, like a scroll saw, that I've mounted to 3/4" ply and simply screw into my MFT when needed. With those threaded TSO Smart Connect Dogs, however, I can screw the tool bases into common anchor points. Hopefully they'll arrive in time for me to update my table and bases over Thanksgiving. Thanks again for the great ideas!
Thank you! 🤣
Thanks for the reviews. I actually ordered 3 items through your links. Good Job
Fastcap True32 FTW! - EDIT: and thanks for the UJK stocking stuffer ;)
👊🏼👊🏼
word
I personally like DEWALT's line of tapes small and big, my Fastcap tape wore out faster than milwaukee stanley dewalt. Cheap sales bin Lufkin tapes seem to wear out like my Fastcap did I still liked the tape, maybe I should get another and see if it was a lemon. I have a Tajima tape it's nice but the one I got has a shiny tape hook that doesn't work if I'm doing exterior work because it slips off the work.
I like how you used the power switch for the air compressor.
Great video, awesome recommendations Jason. The thread detector’s, WOW!! All these years and something so simple never crossed my mind!! I’ll definitely be putting some thread detector’s in my shop.
They are super handy to have on hand
The folks at my mechanic's place call them
"mechanic's rosary beads" .
I'm not Catholic myself, but I found the reference entertaining.
Super useful. 👍
It makes sense to mount the guide rail holders *_not upside down._* Why fight gravity?
Better than expected
It's my tape measure🤣🤣🤣. Still have my " Yellow" tape since they first came out. It's bruised, cut, battered but still accurate. Even have the 16' one to keep in the car.
Love the Flexela hose I've had mine, no reel, for about 5 years. Never a kink.
The UJK tool looks interesting.
they need to make a 3/4" reamer!!
Second that!
Thank you for the recommendation on the tape measures. I got the 12’ and 16’ metric/SAE. They are very nice and quite inexpensive.
Fastcap tapes are very good. I have, however, had one consistent problem with their auto-lock models. After a relatively short time, the auto-lock feature starts to slip, which is very annoying. To their credit, Fastcap always replaces these tapes at no charge.
You can use the reamer tool by hand too.
I have several of the Fastcap tapes and i love them except 1 major issue. The tape itself denta/bends super easily compared to others and after that its hard to use the hook because tape is bent/twisted
i bought the parf kit a while ago an never purchased the add on chamfer tool figuring to just use a 45 bit with bearing in the router. now i wish i would have. could also see this useful for those that have applied a finish to theyre mfts and subsequently boogered up the tolerances of the 20mm holes. id say if you spent the $200+ for the parf guide....spend the extra $30 on the chamfer tool.
I ordered the guide rail holder along with my MTR-X. But the dog hole reamer tool is not available right now. That's ok... I'll get it with my next order. Maybe the tso guide rails? Who knows.
Now I need to see why and how to incorporate bench dogs into my life
Great video Jason. I have a brush at the bandsaw and press drill. Very handy!
We like the retractable wheel for the air compressor so much that we are going to get another! We have a large stationary air compressor and once hubby tripped on the hose and that was a wake up. Like most people we also have a small portable one (actually several), but no matter how many projects we have going I know where the big one is!
Jason I have no joke 15 of the brushes. There on every tool station I have. My wife laugh at me for so many. But it’s never dusty at my tools. 🤣🤓
Great recommendations but if you work in metric there are great measuring tapes made by a brand called magnusson. The tapes retract on pressing the button rather than it always being on retract. Didnt think it was that big a deal initially but honestly one of the best tool buys. I now dont understand why tapes are made that way round. Cheap as chips and ive been using the same one for the past 2 years. its pretty much bang on but as a luthier I dont use it for any serious accuracy. Always steel rule for accuracy!
Have you used the metric flatback version of the Fastcap? The end hook doesn’t move and the tape lies perfectly flat. I gotta say, I wish I had had it sooner.
I am actually not a big fan of lay flat tapes
Jason, really nice video! Ironically, I have and enjoy every single item that you showed on this video! I have Peter Parfitt‘s dogs and dog hole drilling system and so that is why I have the last item that you showed. Great stuff as always. Keep up the good work!
Dog holes. The chamfer is only needed if you use parallel dogs. I use dogs that are 21mm above the table. Positive positioning. Cleaning/ remaking dogholes? use a 20mm engineering reamer.
I wonder how many horses are going to die of hypothermia this winter so Jason can have a clean assembly table…
TSO's flush-mounted 20mm Smart Connect Dogs have approximately 1-inch or 25mm of total thread engagement. Affixing the Smart Connect Dogs using their M8 SpeedKnobs, which have a 15mm long M8-1.25 stud, leaves approximately 10mm of usable thread engagement remaining to fasten fixuring, etc. Not a lot but enough I suppose. (TSO's M8 Star Grip Knobs have a 30mm long M8-1.25 stud so that makes matters worse.) Where appropriate, perhaps using a work surface side M8-1.25 fastener of sufficient length that extends 15mm-20mm beyond the bottom of the Smart Connect Dog where you can then use an M8 regular series (~25mm OD) (or a wide series 5/16-in. ANSI Type B, 1.125-inch nom. OD × 0.344-inch nom. ID) plain flat washer and an M8-1.25 wingnut to firmly affix the Smart Connect Dog and fixturing rather than using TSO's M8 SpeedKnobs.
Another great video. I'd appreciate hearing why you prefer or use TSO dogs over other brands, such as UJK.
I like the selection that TSO carries
That reaming tool is exactly what I need. I've got other TSO stuff for my assembly table, and the parf guide setup, but some of those holes are just too damn tight.
Glad you found it helpful
the flexzilla reel has a brutally small restriction in the side of the reel that causes an enormous CFM drop making it entirely incompatible with high CFM pneumatic tools. So BE WARNED if you use high CFM tools (Needle gun, Impact tools etc.) it might not serve you well.
The GOODYEAR brand reel is better for high CFM applications. It's also made of steel and brass.
Great idea I agree with you on this 👍 👏
I’m a new carpenter I was wondering how long you would say it takes to trim out a garage man door? Just curious 😊
😂😂😂
Great suggestions. I'm sensing a Father's Day marketing campaign inspired by Tobias Funke for the shop apron: Are you looking for a gift that says "Dad likes leather"?
shop apron for the win....ps sign up for our email list, and wait until Black Friday
I too wear an apron during the hotter times of the month.
I'm a apron guy too. First a tool bag, then a apron, if I have to work belt
I like this video, Brent. Thanks! (FYI it's "useful", not"usefull")
The Fastcap track rack should work with Makita, DeWalt, Festool, Kreg Adaptive Cutting System and Triton
Great video! I'm particularly interested in the thread checker. Using the thread gauge is a bit fidly.
As a hand tool woodworker, the hand brush is just standard-I even have several different for specific purposes, stiff hair, longer handled horse hair, softer small bench brush, converted paintbrush (cut off most of the handle so it fits in the hand), small decoupage brushes, etc. But it is also a kind of hand tool :^)
Yeah, I got the idea from hand tool users. They have tons of them. Lol
@@bentswoodworking We can never have too many hand brushes! 😄
I’d love to see that trim finished on your door. 😀
that one thing would hold a Big Mac just perfectly.
Saw all the festool stuff.... I'm guessing he's out of my budget range.
I can afford the tape measure...I have one. Great measures.
Thanks for the tips but you showed how to use a brush but I have no idea what that garage door Hanger is for.
for the thread detector, I usually just use my tap and die set, or I have a little thread finder swiss army style thing that is just a bunch of zig zag keys that fit in the threads and give you the info you need (don't know what its called; probaby something simple like: 'thread gauge')
That nut nearly falling through bench triggered my anxiety ..
3:47 Apron... no sawdust and chips in my pants pockets. 4:13 Nice tool pouch. You can craft in leather yourself - granted, that's assuming you want to take the time to do so, but it is very doable. I ordered my basic leather toolkit from ebay and I ordered different leather types from Maverick Leather.
When I get a woodshop, I would have cordless brushless nailers and an electric air duster and eliminate the need for a compressor altogether.
Great list. Who makes the carbide scraper?
