My name is Jared. I am an engineer by day and a woodworker by night... usually after the kids are in bed and before the neighbors call the cops!
This channel is about all things woodworking. I do project build videos, how-to videos, shop setup and shop layout videos, tip & tricks, and tool reviews of the stuff I'm using. I will also show you how I organize and work in my small shop in 1 bay of my garage. If you want to improve your woodworking and get inspired with some creative projects and innovative designs, come join me as a fellow evening woodworker and let's go make some sawdust!
Now go build something!

The best tip I ever got for working in a small shop was to put all of my tools on stands that roll. That way, I can move them out of the way when I need to work on another tool.
Yep that's a great tip that I also have in my first shop setup video.
A little add on to the double up the outlets, is to have the two on the left on one circuit and the ones on the right on another.
That's a great idea!
MAY God bless you all
Thanks for all the great stuff on your channel and demonstrating the possibilities of a small shop. I have a 16x20 shed that is my favorite place on earth :) and I appreciate the tips. I generally do not participate in "social media" as it is such a condemning and angry place. However as you noted, the woodworking community is very much a friendly and encouraging and affirming place which I so very much appreciate.
Yes it's such a breath of fresh air amid the social media negativity. Good luck with your shop!
Thanks for the tips.
Thanks for your info.
Lights on their own separate circuit also prevents a Major Safety Hazard. When a tool trips a breaker, The Lights Stay ON!
In fact, that is my biggest complaint about "normal" household wiring - having receptacles and lights on the same circuit. Insane! Wherever possible (usually when adding on or making an improvement) I change that so it is no longer a safety hazard. Frankly, I am amazed that the NEC even allows it!
In my shop I have two 120V 20A circuits for tools (one on each of the long walls); two 240V 20A circuits (again, one on each long wall) and one 120V 15A lighting circuit - with all LED lamps. I also have two dedicated circuits (and will soon have a third) for specific applications. This is all in Addition to the circuits provided by the Builder: one circuit for all lights and all receptacles, and one for the thru-wall heat pump. I have all of the builder-installed receptacles labeled as "NOT FOR TOOLS".
Thank you for this video
Good video thanks for posting this.
This is amazing and very technical. Good principles. Great job. I am glad that you enjoy what you are doing. Peggy
I love seeing small shop spaces. Just moved from a small basement, and now I'm just getting my own garage setup. Just finished insulating, drywalling and running electrical on the 'tool side' of the space. Mounting my dust collection today and will be back in action. Thanks for all the tips!
Good advice. I should follow it someday. It'll happen I'm sure.
Great as always. Thanks for the video my friend.
You're very welcome sir!
Thank you
I've been putting tools back where I got them after I'm done using them, always before I leave the workshop, doing that I know exactly where a tool is when I need it. I'm also a stickler for clean up, I hate it when things are covered in sawdust, I sweep that up pretty quick, if not it gets tracked all over the place. Clean, pickup, and put away as you go is my motto, you have a good point about keeping things clean, who wants to spend an hour or more cleaning up before you can even work on a project?
Excellent advice to look through your scrap pile on a regular basis! I always find stuff I forgot I had, but I forget to do it-even though I know that looking through the scrap stack always, always "pays dividends."
Yep, too many scraps to remember them all!
Great video. Great advice. My shop is in a below-ground basement only accessible from inside house, not ideal but I make do. Rolling carts that let me constantly reconfigure are key and you are so right about cleaning up after each job. I try to clean up at the end of most days to. Keeps dust down, helps me find things, keeps me safer because I am not tripping over scrap wood, cords, or tools. I’m gonna have to check out the air filtration system. That would be a nice complement to my dust deputy connected shop vac with HEPA bag and diffuser.
I also have my shop in a one-car garage. I totally agree with your tip to keep things clean and to clean up after every job. Part of my routine whenever I work in the shop is to save a few minutes at the end of the day to clean up. I also keep all my large items on wheels for flexibility and everything has a dedicated place for storage. Thanks for a great video!
Yep, that's what you gotta do! Thanks!
Man I picked my up a craftsman leaf blower from lowes it is officially my favorite tool. Makes clean up so easy blow it all out with my fans going works great.
Clean up is much more fun now!
Some good tips. I just added a hollow post in my machine island and ran 5- 20A 120 outlets and 2 -220 outlets all on their own breaker.
Sounds like fun!
wow the thing about hanging on to pieces of wood that you will probably never use got too real x'D
New subscriber here. I like your work buddy. Kuddos!
Thanks man!
If you don’t have any merchandise with the quote, “Woodworkers used masks before they were cool”. You can take my money now! 😂
Great tips, keep up the good work dude!
Thanks man!
It is absolutely amazing how hard it is to let go of a piece of wood. I've become better over the years, but still ......
Yep I feel you man
Ive been using a blower for years. Works even better if you have a window at the opposite end to create a drafting airflow. Even better would be a fan in that window. I don't have a shop but use it in the garage if was doing some work.
It's awesome! I have a man door at one end and the garage door at the other end. Works well especially when it's warm outside!
Thanks for the tips but I simply had to comment when you mentioned the maker community being 'mostly' made of people who are happy and willing to see others thrive. Here in Australia, we obviously have a much smaller community on the WWW but we are all mates and help each other out whenever we can. Cheers Jared, onwards and upwards for 2022!!
That's one of my favorite parts about being in the maker community!
@@EveningWoodworker it's much more rewarding for everyone to lift each other up than try and rise to the top alone. ✌️
Hey Jared love your channel. Would you please with sugar on top show me or (heck even SELL ME) how you made that tape and paper towel holder. It's exactly what I'm looking for to the letter!
I'm planning on doing a video soon on the french cleat wall and various holders... I'll go into it in more detail there!
Hey Jared, great channel, in this vid at 3:51 you show a clip of a temporary spray booth. Do you have any info/comments about temporary spray booths (I don't seem to be able to find any info on your channel). G'day from Australia 😁
Hi Martin! For my booth I basically stapled plastic sheets to my drywall ceiling and held the corners together with clamps. I used that booth in this video: ua-cam.com/video/q5wFG_L1L2o/v-deo.html
100% agreement with everything you said but would add that lumber/scrap storage needs to be as accessible as possible which suggests EMT conduit shorts in holes bored at a few degree angle into the building's framing ... or into 2 xs fastened to it. Thinner layers of stored material helps a lot. Also, a wood stove is a big help consuming offcuts and worth doing especially if you can avoid perforating an existing roof. We need durable, more affordable and comfortable positive pressure air filtration systems too.
Yeah accesible is key otherwise it never gets used!
I noticed you have the Dewalt 735 planer. Would you consider doing a video on how to stop/minimize snipe?
It's not fool proof but one of the best things to eliminate snipe is having the infeed and mostly the outfield raised slightly higher than level. It stops the back roller from changing the height when releasing. The only other thing is to follow your piece with a sacrificial piece. The snipe will happen on the following piece. Just wasteful though.
Good idea... I have some ideas and tests i want to conduct on it first
I’m tired of my job and want to start a woodworking business. I don’t have much experience with woodworking but I love doing all my projects. I know I need to find my niche before I jump into it full time but I’m getting more impatient every single morning I have to wake up.
Good luck! It can be very fulfilling
the end of the slides to give accurate inside an outside measurements. when the sliding end hits the tape measure body, it elongates and no longer give accurate measurements
But it’s SO hard for a creator to let go of wood scraps! It’s like giving away children to be forced to cull through the hoarder stashes and send them out to the landfill…… lol I feel you brother! Your stashes made feel a bit better about myself 😂
Oh man the struggle is real!
Im finally going to build a shop I have a 24 x 24 space and was thinking of a dedicated finish room. I don't plan on large projects. Coffee tables, end tables, cutting boards things like this. What would you recommend? I have 2 roll up doors I thought maybe using 1 as material in the other as finished products out.
If you have multiple projects going at once, you could use a dedicated finish room, otherwise, at least an area in one corner would be awesome. You could hang curtains or plastic to make the other two walls if you're spraying.
So, where'd ya get those green shoulder straps? And what are they "holding up?" :) Good info, thanks much...
Ah I'm assuming you mean my shop apron. It may look green but it's a heavy waxed canvas one that is awesome!
@@EveningWoodworker The shoulder straps reminded me of military equipment, I was issued, a few years ago. :)
Will you give us the plans for the little router stand you made in shop class?
I don't have any plans for them but I may have to make some plans since there have been numerous requests on it!
The leaf blower is the best tip, i use it all the time to clean up the shop or im done doing something. 16 years later, get rid of that damn piece of scrap wood jajajaja always want to keep everything, not a good thing.
How are your hand saws on the French cleat?
I actually made a short on just that! ua-cam.com/users/shortsD6jQ6aGsFoI?si=WZbg3XCRxIJKgiPW
Any time you spray finish containing VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) you should be wearing some sort of cartridge mask that blocks the VOCs. Yes, they reduce them smell but their main purpose is eliminating those VOCs from entering your lungs. These are overkill for general dust particulate and can be substituted for something more suitable like a good fitting N95 mask. Unlike the masks worn for COVID protection, a particulate like the 3M 6291 has exhaust ports so your breath can exit the mask and not fog your glasses or eye protection. Always check the NIOSH rating to ensure that the right mask is being used for the task you are performing.
Good call! Thanks for the reminder
What model is your jet air filtration system? I didn't see it listed? Would you buy it again?
The one I have is this: amzn.to/3to9tsf and yes it works well for what it is, but I think they have a newer one now
@@EveningWoodworker Thanks
Did you install the power outlets yourself or did you hire an electrician?
I did the outlets myself, but had an electrician friend help with the connection to the breaker box.
Both of those are respirators. One is a disposable and the other is a reusable APR (air purifying respirator). If it had a rating like N95 or P100 on a disposable it is a respirator.
Thanks for the clarification!
Pull up those sweater sleeves.
Good reminder!
Why install the filtration system up in the air. It's fighting gravity. Just the the dust go down. I used an old furnace blower and made a box with a 20x20x1/2 filter. The blower pushes air to the ground. I point it at the bottom of my garage door in order to prevent leafs or other things to enter the garage. Please edjucate me if I'm wrong. I'm new in all this.
When you cut wood, there are two different kinds of dust, the dust and chips that fall to the ground, and the airborne particulates that are barely visible. Those often just go wherever the air currents go whether up or down. That's the stuff that gets in your lungs. As long as you get the air moving though to get those particulates out, you should be good!
You can double or triple you workshop now, then you can make more videos for tips for medium/large workshop.... ;-)
Good idea! Now I just need more shop space to expand into!
You, want to talk small? I have an Arrow metal shed 10x12" yea I like to see someone fit a table saw, bench sander, miter saw, jointer, planer, a drill press a dust collection system, and all the other small tools and still have room to hang wood planks ext, ext, ext.
Oh man, that's tight!
@@EveningWoodworker Yea it is.
