So buy an assload of blue tape is what you’re saying
You learn well Grasshopper
A metric assload
Yup... that's right. Lol
Updated for accuracy:
- Two assloads
You never have enough clamps and you never have enough blue tape (I like mine orange or pink, but that's a personal preference)!
John, the edge jointing method you're mentioning here has been my bread and butter method for the past 40 years, so I agree that it's the way to go. What I do that's different to ensure I place the correct face against the fence, is to follow a simple rhyme: Odds out; evens in. So the odd numbered boards will have the numbered face away from the fence, while the even numbered boards will have their numbered face against the fence. I have found this guarantees I won't err, and the students I've taught this simple system agree.
But that doesn't rhyme.
When you remove the messing about, jokes and general on camera entertainment, videos like this really highlight just how good of both a craftsman and teacher you are. Would love to see more of these.
I think you mean When you include those things* I would instead like to highlight how important it is to have teachers like this who mess about, joke and entertain while clearly demonstrating and explaining something so easily. Proving you can learn to do all of this and have fun (esp. while being safe) is vital to bringing in new learners.
@@arrrexx no, I meant what I wrote. I understand your perspective, but we clearly have different learning styles, there is nothing wrong with this, but I require not just the what and how, but they why and technical details also. I like information concise and deliberate, I don’t need jokes when I am trying to learn.
Don’t get me wrong, I love their videos and I appreciate the humour and lightheartedness when performing a craft, but explicitly for learning, it doesn’t do anything for me.
Part of the point was also that their videos can be both entertaining and informative when they step out things and focus 100% on the craft, this is a great thing and a credit, not just to the guys on camera, but the people behind the scenes.
I like the useful tips for those us with smaller/less equipped shops instead of feeding BS. Other youtubers sit there telling us that we just need to buy this brand and that specialty tool and spend more money on blah blah blah. You're the real MVP John. I woodwork because I enjoy it. Not to use my tools as a status symbol.
Yeah, most have turned into 5 minute infomercials. For example, “5 tools you didn’t know you needed!” I do like those type on occasion but really it’s just to sell products.
@@rikityrik what you also could is I work at Busy Beaver and we often take bad wood and throw it on a pallet and sell for very cheap. There were 16 2/8 by 10 pine boards for 30 dollars the normal cost is like 10 dollars per one so I would go to local places and see if they want to sell the wood they don’t want
Thanks John. Being more of a weekend warrior on woodworking those tips and tricks are very helpful. Keep them coming.
Looking forward to when you get back to traditional builds and maybe more of the sawmill.
It’s gotta be sawmill weather in Pittsburgh first and the weather is NOT cooperating
Me I like this type of stuff
Thank you for continuing to show tips and builds rather than tool reviews. Ultimately that's why we all watch you. 🙏
Great timing just got my first jointer set up yesterday and was going to start using it today. Your tips videos are excellent!!
That was a great lesson, you're a good teacher. It would be really great if you had 6-8 week classes in your shop, sort of like woodshop when I was in high school a thousand years ago but for the adult home hobbyist. Then again, I'm nowhere near Pitt... so there is that. But a guy can wish! Great Sunday morning video. Thanks!
Thanks man I AM A 70 YEAR OLD BEGINNER, RETIRED pipefitter and loving this woodfitting
Don't get me wrong, I like the videos where John's just goofballing with his coworkers, but I really like these more relaxed ones too. Less shouting and more woodworking 😄
Great info/tips, especially the "in-out" jointer hack..have used many times and usually get flawless results! Thanks Mr Malecki!
I heard the blue tape and CA glue tip for the first time a couple weeks ago and used it to hold top and bottom of a ring box together to sand all the side flush and round over all the edges. Amazing tip!
I'm an Intermediate woodworker, maybe even sometimes expert...and I thoroughly enjoyed this presentation. I actually picked up the blue tape tips and will exploit them in my joinery! Thanks, well done.
The tape/CA glue and the jointer/planer tips are epic! You inspire me to get in the shop and make something.
Been watching your videos for a couple years now! This was one of my favorite videos man. Super informative and good things to know! Looking forward to using these tricks.
FANTASTIC VID. Simple but SO VERY helpful. Love your vids and your work!!
I'm not really the biggest "tips videos" fans, because they are often filled with stuff that you probably will never use. But this one was full of things everyone might not know but should actually know. Well done and thank you.
I love contrasting the colors of the lumber too always been a big fan of it
These are some great tips, thank you for sharing them. I didn't consider using the blue tape for visual support when making a cut, definitely using that tip from now on. thanks again! Great video!
This is the favorite video of yours I have seen in quite a while. The perfect blend of useful information and shenanigans!
I love the sound effects your CA glue makes!
Great tips, sometimes the simplest things can make a huge difference.
Outstanding! CA glue and blue tape make life in the shop so much easier!
Thanks for the great tips! Always appreciate you thinking of us and sharing your knowledge. Thank you!
John, What a great video. Thanks again for these tips. I really enjoy watching your videos. Looking forward to your next build.
These were excellent tips. Simple to understand. Thanks for the video John.
Happy to see a video again. Love this content. Nothing earth shattering but practical and useful.
I really enjoyed this. The blue tape before marking is something I'd not considered before and I'll be doing it in future. Thanks😊
Hope we get to see some builds soon
As a complete beginner I found this video to be so informative! Great stuff seriously, Thank you!
Excellent video. Thank you for the tips. I'm a beginner woodworker so I put a high value on videos like these cuz I learn alot of techniques. Also, your style of presenting is very good, you teach well. Thank you!
Love your tips! They are really awesome. I was thinking that I might already know 1 or 2 of them, but they are all new to me! Keep it up👍
Dude, this was a great 101.
From someone who is very much learning, these tips seem so amazingly helpful!
👍👍👍👍, thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge with so much humbleness, greatings from Guatemala.
That jointer trick is AMAZING!
This is great. Love the glue tip for the hand cut dovetails!
I stumbled accross your channel…u made me feel energized rather than stupid…I’m a 67 retired 1st responder getting my wood grove on but feel woodworking soo advanced I feel dumb…I’ll be watching your channel now…..peace thru superior firepower…….flattfoot 4 ever…..
I came a cross this video while searching for woodworking tips and i am your big fan man thanks for sharing your knowledge😎
I want to thank you for your vids. I just got into woodworking as in only having 2 tools so far 😂. There are tons of vids obviously but yours are the ones I enjoy watching the most and learn a lot from.
I use tape for layouts all the time too. Painters tape is fine for what you showed and for layout/marking floors for cabinets or to get an idea of how big something is and is awesome for when you need to snap a non-permanent line. My addition and something I use regularly for precision layouts is post-it note or sticky-tape rolls. It's much clearer for sharp lines/contrast and is erasable. It's more expensive than painters tape but I tend to use it only when I need it. Plus it's a quick tear-off post-it note that is more visible than tape.
Wish I would have watched this yesterday before cutting a bunch of mortise and tenons. Great video, thanks for the tips
this is a series that needs to be continued!!!
I appreciate all the effort and time you take out of your life to make videos.
Have a great and wonderful day
Good ideas! Thank you for taking the time to make this video!
I love woodworking tips and tricks. Keep them coming!
These woodworking tips are incredibly helpful, especially for beginners. I appreciate how you've shared practical and cost-effective techniques to improve woodworking without having to invest a lot of time and money. The plug cutter and blue tape methods seem like game-changers for achieving professional-looking results. I feel the blue tape trick should be shown to you the first time you purchase a woodworking tool! It should be on the receipt haha! Great video mate!
This is excellent, John. These were great tips. I love that you showed a piece of Olivier Gomis. That kid is awesome.
Great tips, especially the jointer.. thank you!
Great tip for using the jointer 👍
Awesome tips John! I've been screwing up wood as a hobby for over 20 years and I am still learning cool stuff.
Also, I love to see that you use a KM dovetail guide. I like to see people supporting each other
This is your best video yet John - good work
Great video John, I appreciate you sharing your knowledge
Thank you for these videos. The tips really help me think out ideas for my projects!
I am just starting wood working, very helpful video
These tips are amazing for begginer like i am.
Thanks a lot !
Those are all great tips! Super useful, keep up the good work John!
Just watched several of you videos... AWESOME-- so many great ideas.... especially for a newbie ;like me... loved the plug ! Thanks, Larry
Best “TIPS” video I’ve seen yet! Thank you ! 😊
The running of opposite sides through the jointer, purely ingenious!!
Even though it’s so obvious the simple solution!!!
The edge jointing trick was a game changer for my glue ups. I learned it as the ins and outs trick. It also works at the the table saw but i mark the boards as up and down. Run one board with the face up and the mating edge with the board face down and the same result is achieved. The CA glue blue tape trick also changed the way i work. Do you REALLY need CA glue in your shop? Yes! Yes you do!!
All great tips! I'm a huge fan of the glue and sanding one. I used to mix them together into a putty and then stuff it into the cracks, but it's so much easier to just pour in some glue and then sand it in. Not as messy, and faster.
I have plug cutters, but I've never actually used them yet. I'm going to have to build something that needs them so I can actually make use of them!
I'd never seen the edge jointing one before. Always love learning something new!
Probably my favorite woodworking video. And no product plugs either!
These are very useful tips. I appreciate you sharing.
Thanks for the great tips! Very useful and affordable for beginners.
The Mike Pekovich blue tape technique is a pretty handy time saver and joints look a lot better right out of the box.
Love the dovetail tip at the end
A tip I have found good, with my bad shoulders: think ahead about how you will move around, and how you lift/carry stuff. It can really make a difference both in safety and in how tired you get.
Thanks, some of the tips were ones I had seen before. I will be using several of them in the near future.
That was a great bonus tip for when you have a board that is larger than your jointer. My mind was blown 🤯
Joining the edges like that is a technique I use when using a joiner plane. If I only have two boards to do, I use the hand plane versus rolling my joiner out and setting it up (small shop). Your blue tape for dovetails though....that's money right there! I've always done them by hand, and my eyes aren't what they used to be. This will definitely help!
Love the flags on your walls brother.
Excellent tips, John! Thanks a bunch! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thank you! Made some purchases and excited to use these tips
I'm new to this show, great place to learn
82 years old and still learning. Especially from you. Thanks
Great video man.!!! Some great tips for me as a beginner in woodwork. Thankyou 💙🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Alot of great tips.
Some I have heard of, some I haven't, some I have used and some I have not. But you definitely helped add a few more tools to my tool box! 😎👍🥃🇺🇸
Great tips. wish I'd known about sanding the with the glue still wet before now. Would've made my work much easier. Thank you
Thanks for the video it will help me out a lot on time and looks
Absolutely full of good tips ty
Dude, that was awesome.

All great tips, thanks! One comment for leaving the tape measure on your apron or belt; don't let the tape snap back to its home position. Letting it snap back enlarges the holes in the tape where the end is riveted on. If you don't care about precision then never mind.
i really love your work. thanks for your talent. here from Denmark
Love the jointer hack
Very nice video this week boys. Very helpful and definitely useful and informational. Can't wait to see more videos soon. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friends. Fab On. Weld On. Stay squirrely. Keep Making. God bless.
Wow, really great tips from my pov. Thanks
Great jointer tips
Such a good video, thanks John!
Great video! I really hope you do more videos like this!
