Since you asked for feedback, here is mine: Yes, I enjoyed the woodworking tips - short, direct, well presented - and would appreciate more in a series.
I bought this as a gift for my friend ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxcZqgZ8Ynkiz5n_LxIWRlAicuzmz5kCHG who is just starting out in the world of wood work. He loves it!! There is a great section on different wood and what to use for what kind of job and a similar section for tools as well. The projects in it are things you probably would have a go at with clear instructions, pictures, videos and diagrams throughout. Great for a beginner/amateur wood worker.
Man, these are really useful. I’m always overthinking this kind of thing. Will definitely use the first tip to get the right depth on my half laps. I’d love to see more of these tips.
I just recently found your channel and subscribed. I realize this video is 2 years old but I felt compelled to tell you I really benefitted from this one. I’m going to look further in your videos for more, thanks!
I am new to woodworking in any serious sense. I find these simple (in the very best sense of the word) tips are so useful. Thank you for taking the time to share them 🙂
Thanks, I'm a hobbyist woodworker and getting my first FTG blade for dados--about a year ago--was a life-saver (no more chiseling out grooves from ATB blades).
I love the router tip at around 7:15 or so. Adding the tape to move the router over just a hair to get the dado just a fraction larger for the board to fit into the slot is a great idea! Thanks for the other tips too! Great stuff!
Just commenting to add my own vote to please continue this series. There are a lot of tips/tricks videos but the ones selected here hit that nice balance of extremely useful but not overly obvious.
Okay, I have a request - could you go around your wall and show: A) All of your tools, B) Tell us what they are called C) What the tools can do. It would be awesome if there was a full video just about tools. This would really help me out as English isn’t my first language, so basically while I can speak it freely, I do not know specialised language about woodworking yet - like what tools are made, or what they are intended to do, what kind of motions they have, what they can possibly do or be used for, if one tool can do other things other than say “this is a drill and it drills holes” lol It would be awesome if you could go with all the tools in one video and brief description, and then maybe do a series of videos or shorts on what the tools can do in more depth? I’m pretty sure a good description of a tool’s capabilities can be fitter into a 30-60 seconds short. I’d love it. I’d really appreciate it. Have a think about it. Before anyone goes - “why don’t you just google it?’, it’s often the problem - because I don’t know what to google. Like in my head - there’s an abundance of ideas, but there can be more or better and bigger ideas if my brand would know all of the capabilities of tools or what other people use a certain tool for even if it wasn’t made for that purpose. And as the saying goes - you don’t know what you don’t know, so it’s hard to google what you don’t know, when I try to google so,etching that I don’t know if it exists or what it’s called and I try to describe it to google, often in different languages - I usually 90% of the time end up sifting through pages of bs. And still don’t find what I was looking for. Most often I find what I was looking for from watching other people woodworking/ engineering videos 😅😂
Whittier! I grew up there! Makes me all warm and fuzzy thinking about my hometown. Glad to see you guys adding to its history and commerce. I also liked the tips. I’m thinking about getting back into woodworking.
I just discovered your channel and after watching this video, subscribed. I'm not a precision woodworker and I don't have fancy tools, so tips to work around those limitations interest me. I must say also that you guys are not only extremely talented wood workers, but also extremely talented and innovative videographers! Your use of graphics to explain your work is exceptional. Keep up the good work. Y'all are amazing!!
Smart viewers! These are great tips. I'll double down on endorsing the painters tape for micro-adjustments. Sneaking up on cuts was the biggest revolution for my projects when I learned the value of it.
Honestly, insanely useful stuff. ALL stuff I have NEEDED on projects and literally ALL stuff I'm going to be using on upcoming projects. Thanks guys, looking forward to more of these!!
Great tips and a tour de force on the many applications of the humble shim. It's a good example of how certain basic engineering principles propagate throughout engineering disciplines. Almost like 'axioms' Just one of things I love about woodworking. Thx for sharing.
Background music, boys!! I checked out your other videos and you use it, so I'll assume that you will do so for this series. Great tips. Been in the game for 40 years and I still appreciate learning new tricks.
Brilliant simplicity. Several problems I had been plagued with, particularly the router dado and cutting the dado with the table saw. Thanks, I subscribed.
I always enjoy the tips and tricks series videos that the different people who I follow on UA-cam post once in a while so I’d love it you guys continued on with yours.
My builder is building me a house and I'm going to be doing a lot of the interior finishing. I have lots of oak boards and will be using these tips on a variety of projects. Please keep them coming. And, thank you both!!
Miter gauge that came with my table saw was loose in the slot. Wrapped it with a piece of painter’s tape and if fit perfectly with no wiggle. Great tip!
Really like the last tip with the dado. I’ve seen a piece of wood that fits in a blade kerf rather than a drill bit. This compensates for blade run-out.
The both of you have such a interesting sense of humor. Over the years I always find my self laughing in the mist of learning something new on the regular. Props on the channel guys
I love it. I love the amount of content in a short space of time. Don't get me wrong, I like long videos as well, but if I am about to try something new, I don't always want to sort through a 30 minute video to find the trick I needed!
My favorite thing about woodworking magazines is the collection of tips they do. I'm ALWAYS interested in learning how other people have solved or simplified the infinite tasks of woodworking / making.
I remember your guys other video doing a cabinet built in job. I'm a carpenter that works with one other carpenter it works good to build each others skills and challenge each other to constantly improve our work.
These are great tips. I'm one of the guy's that do alot by hand. But I did see another thing in the burning tip. Clean up your sawblade, and you will have a smoother cut, so also less burnings.
I have just recently started watching your channel and yes I have subscribed, and although I don't share all the same taste in all projects, not saying your work is bad (all work is subjective), I do find some of your stuff is appealing to me. Your videos are very well done and craftsmanship is fantastic. This is a great video and I'm still learning, finding this is going to help on some up coming projects of my own. Keep up with the great content and projects!
Thank you! I am a new woodworker and can use all the help I can get. Love your channel, love your style, can't wait to get in the shop and use this to create the tables I wake up seeing in my head.
Cutting exact width dados just keeps getting easier. Great tip! One thing I do when I need a slightly looser fit is to add a playing card to the piece needed when you make that first cut.
Since I have been at this since 1976 all of the tips were solid. One point is that the drill bit idea could present issues. Just keep a few shims handy of the appropriate thickness. Nice work, I enjoy your shows.

Good one on the painters tape trick.
Guys, these tips are invaluable! Especially when they eliminate measuring…such a headache. Please continue this series. Love it!
Tips (even as a reminder) are always good. Get rid of the ball.
The tip for using tape as a micro adjustment: So brilliantly simple I can't believe I didn't think of it.
Man, these are really useful. I’m always overthinking this kind of thing. Will definitely use the first tip to get the right depth on my half laps. I’d love to see more of these tips.
I always think that math and measuring will help me, but it’s often a clever way of approaching the problem that makes everything easier and better
I'm overthinking to and this make a lot of things so much easier. Logical thinking
I just recently found your channel and subscribed. I realize this video is 2 years old but I felt compelled to tell you I really benefitted from this one. I’m going to look further in your videos for more, thanks!
Very well explained and without any ANNOYING music. Keep up the great work.
👊
Not just good tips, but good presentation too. Not over the top, without the usual narcissism. Well done gentlemen.
I am new to woodworking in any serious sense. I find these simple (in the very best sense of the word) tips are so useful. Thank you for taking the time to share them 🙂
Thanks, I'm a hobbyist woodworker and getting my first FTG blade for dados--about a year ago--was a life-saver (no more chiseling out grooves from ATB blades).
This is a great idea for a video. There is a world of knowledge out there and I can’t think of a better way to get it into one place.
Tape as a micro adjustment is genius. Scott from Japan
I love the router tip at around 7:15 or so. Adding the tape to move the router over just a hair to get the dado just a fraction larger for the board to fit into the slot is a great idea! Thanks for the other tips too! Great stuff!
Don’t stop. These are great. Especially for us noobs who were just learning.
That dado drillbit was genius. You guys are awesome. Thanks for this video
Very helpful. Keep'em coming for sure!

Skip the table saw and buy a chisel.
This is a great idea for a you tube show! You have my attention. Thanks guys.
That tape micro adjustment is a surefire winner. Thanks for posting. 👍
The blue tape tip is solid gold!
Please continue with this series. My only concern is remembering all of them in the shop! They are very, very useful.
Yeah! A helpful info graphic tip sheet would be great! (With little cartoon versions of Chris and Sean!)
I'll second that.
Fourth here 👍

That last tip is exactly what I need for my next project. Thanks guys.
I really like the format. Bring on volume 2!
As a beginner, I need and appreciate EVERY tip I can find.
Please continue!
Great tips. Will use the dado width tip later today for a flip top bench cart build.
Next level tips! Not just the usual use tape to prevent tear out on plywood. I really enjoyed it. Keep it up.
I hope they continue, I've saved it to my 'tips' playlist.
The comments about the use of tape and the drill bit for offsets were very useful. Why didn’t I think of that !
I like the short vids. Clear, concise and usable.
The tape trick for dados is awesome!
Good advice on the dado cutting.
Going to try that method. Way better than cutting to lines. 👍
Wow guys! Thank you so much! These tips are really practical and clever. I have struggled thru each of these challenges so many times.
Excellent presentations. Clear and concise. I subscribed
I will watch every single video from this tips series.
I really like the series! Please keep it up. Really enjoyed the blue ball transitions. My fav was Shawn (spelling?) handing it over.
Nice work. Using the workpiece and drill bit as a dado jig...great idea.
Miter gauge that came with my table saw was loose in the slot. Wrapped it with a piece of painter’s tape and if fit perfectly with no wiggle. Great tip!
Please keep this tips segment going all are really great to know.
These are great helpful things to try and remember. Please keep them coming TY
I don’t usually like tips videos because I know em, but this one had to I will definitely implement. Thank you !
Excellent tips. This is why I watch woodworking videos. Thanks

"The tape as a micro adjustement" - a tip that is worth it's weight in gold!
I learned a lot in a short time. Please keep this up.
Very good tips and presented professionally. Thanks
I love it. I love the amount of content in a short space of time. Don't get me wrong, I like long videos as well, but if I am about to try something new, I don't always want to sort through a 30 minute video to find the trick I needed!

These were useful, please keep them coming. Thank you.
Very good. Please continue this series.

You guys are a great mix of corny, and insightful. Thank you, I picked up a LOT of good info!!
Liked the dado trick. Blue tape to the rescue every time. Good stuff thanks
Thanks for gracing us with your tips
Love the tip on better lap joints by using the tablesaw itself ! simple but so effective
Guys, thanks for sharing! Liked the drill bit tip!
Best tip video I’ve seen in a long time! Thanks!
Just used the tape trick for a micro adjustment to dial in a dado cut. 💯
These are great tips. I'm one of the guy's that do alot by hand. But I did see another thing in the burning tip. Clean up your sawblade, and you will have a smoother cut, so also less burnings.

Thank you for sharing the tips with us that are newer
Gentlemen, the information/content was amazing. Please continue providing this valuable and educational information. Thank you.
Cutting exact width dados just keeps getting easier. Great tip! One thing I do when I need a slightly looser fit is to add a playing card to the piece needed when you make that first cut.
Tips: yes please!
Keep them coming. I will be using the crosslap tuning tip very soon.
That tape trick for micro-adjustment is genius!
The tape idea is amazing, thank you...
The dado trick is genius! I wish i had seen this tip video long ago :) excellent work team. New subscriber
Since I have been at this since 1976 all of the tips were solid. One point is that the drill bit idea could present issues. Just keep a few shims handy of the appropriate thickness. Nice work, I enjoy your shows.
- Thanx 4 sharing. They tips are all quite useful, particularly the lap joining.
