Live with Rob Cosman Episode 22: Bed Desk Part 3

hi I'm Rob cause and welcome to my shop we just released our latest video on building a workbench happens to be the one that I'm leaning against if you're just getting into handle woodworking or if you're transitioning from power tool background you're gonna discover real quick how essential a good bench is there's some features that I'm going to share with you that are that you've got to have them in that bench in order to enjoy this process by the way that video which is four and a half hours long covers everything from selecting the materials to building the base building the top if it even includes some of the accessories like a sharpening station attaching the vise and it also includes a cut list as well as plans to actually get follow as you're building the bench what are you looking for in a good bench I think the most critical thing is at the top be nice and flat this becomes your reference face you're dimensioning a piece of lumber it's got to be sitting on something that is flat so this becomes the surface that you actually will test your pieces against and the nice thing about MDF in particular three-inch thick MDF now that's made out of three 1-inch pieces but when glued together you may as well consider it a three-inch thick piece of MDF good and stable nice and flat hard-wearing surface yes it can be damaged but you know I've had people cut into it with a dovetail saw simply take some sign acrylate run it in that little spot flush it off and it's good to go so a nice flat surface number one number two it needs to be sturdy it can track well if you look underneath the base is made out of four pieces of 5/8 inch Baltic birch now you know if you glue two pieces of wood together and it's a decent glue joint those two pieces become one Baltic birch nice thing about it is it's a whole bunch of layers of that same Baltic birch so when you're done you end up with a two and a quarter inch thick piece of plywood both for the stretchers and for the uprights it's bolted together with three-eighths inch lag bolts I prior me stove bolts so when everything is secured it's not moving it is not going to rack on you at all it weighs just under 200 pounds so it's not going to slide around the fluor as you're trying to plain something so that's the criteria that part of the criteria is covered next thing and and perhaps one of the more important is the vise now what we utilize is a shoberg vise and I'll just unwind this and show you the biggest feature instead of having round tubes they use two rectangular pieces that allows for some bolts underneath here to take any of the end of the rack out so it does not slide side to side that means when you're securing a piece of wood that you're going to cut dovetails in or whatever it clamps and holds it tight all the way across the width so when you're sawing you don't get any irritating vibration that makes it difficult to be accurate that same vise mount on the end also holds your workpiece secure if you're going to do some planing in between a couple of bench dogs you can do everything you need to it's not gonna move nice and stable finally easy to build you're just getting into this you don't have a ton of clamps you may be lacking some experience but you want to get started when I develop this bench designed it about almost ten years ago that was the thought I had in mind how do you get somebody started that does not have a rack of clamps like I have over there well in the process of building 30 of these over that past 10 years we've streamlined the process and we reduced the number of tools required in fact you can almost build this without any clamps at all the base is put together using a quarter inch crown staple gun and glue the staple gun holds it together until the glue dries and as I mentioned now you've got one solid piece of wood yeah even the top the way we put it together as you'll see in the video requires no clamps whatsoever and yet the glue joints are nice and tight fantastic banks this is something that you can build in a weekend imagine about a hundred dollars worth of materials plus the cost of the vise and a weekend of work and you've got yourself a bench that you may never have to replace we use Schoenberg's aluminum dogs nothing more than drilling one-inch holes and because they're aluminum if you happen to hit them with your bench out your plane you're not going to destroy your plane if you're looking for a good bench if you have a limited budget and if you have a little bit of skill and want to get started check out this video download it or order it get yourself a sheet of one inch MDF that's a little bit hard to find but it is available if you can't you can always use four pieces of 3/4 it's just nice to have the 1 inch because you've got one less glue joint to worry about Baltic birch is pretty much readily available everywhere you go follow the plans build the bench get started and enjoy hand tool woodworking go we are live are we good yes Kyle Parral brother Kyle one of our first he and Jessi were the first two Canadians to come to our online work art our online our workshop Kyle Newfoundland Regiment and Jessi princess patricia's out in Alberta I haven't seen you I haven't talked to you glad you're here I also want to say hello to all of our viewers in the UK and in Europe glad you guys were able to stay up talk to a few of you today and special shout out to Jake remind me you're not gonna remind me I don't know what you told me earlier no I didn't yeah you did okay says you didn't what else am I supposed to remember for nothing okay when we bring in on Jake in about half an hour 45 minutes all right so our Purpleheart introduction will be done by one of our combat wounded vets from this past year Jake in Michigan Michigan Minnesota Minnesota it's cold deer getting it so we're working on we're working on Angie's Angie's bed desk that's Angie by way of introduction Angie is Ken's cousin she's also a member of our online our team Angie oh yeah Angie does all the t-shirts she and her sister package them all up and when you get them they'll be a little a on the stamp and that's Angie and we have a picture of who's the pilot from the pilot from over in Netherlands Iseman Iceland Jerry Sibbi sent us a picture and he took Angie he took your that new little logo you have and put it right now he's got the a right on his shirt so awesome so what we're doing for Angie's were making her a bed desk so that she can better hold her laptop as she views our episodes so these are the parts that we've been working on and we're gonna get farther than this tonight but before we go any further I want to just briefly tell you upfront what the purple heart project is Jake will give you a personal view of it six times a year we have a class a six day class very intense hand to a workshop I'm gonna show you a picture because I haven't done this before and in that workshop we teach traditional hand tool woodworking so that means building furniture with just hand tools no power and I want to show you some samples of something that we're adding to it their curriculum starting this year oh I wish I was taller second wish came true so Monday sharpening Tuesday dovetails Wednesday dimensioning lumber Thursday half-blind dovetails and dimensioning parts and start to work on the on the box I could have shut this off or else it might drive us nuts at least a hope Thursday if went Friday is mortise and tenon Saturday is more of everything so what we'll do is we will build a candle box you can do whatever you want with the lid so the parts will all come from rough lumber now just in case you're not familiar with that term rough lumber I'm looking for a piece to show you is here here's a piece of rough lumber so there's a piece of pine that came from the mill it's been sawn dried but that's how you get it so it's not flat it's not the same width certainly wouldn't be the same thickness and it's rough exterior and we take that and we turn it into a piece of finished lumber that is dimensionally accurate smooth finished and here are some of the boxes that I've done over the years when we've taught to class we used to do this now we brought it back because we've increased the length of the class so this box is made out of poplar and mahogany has half blind dovetails so that you can a groove in the bottom and you can cut it with our drawer bottom plane which is this little thing right here and that has to pass all the way through so if you had a through dovetail you'd see the end so half blinds you don't do that because the groove goes between the pins on this piece and it can go any way I can go anywhere inside the tail on this piece but because that's hidden you don't see it and then I just got a little creative with the lid and I decided to make it round there's a little rabbit to fit in there so it'll hold on here's one made out of cherry same idea half blinds cherry lid just a little bit of shape to it here's one that a pine a little more complicated in that it has a sliding lid and there's a couple of other options for doing the joint you can do a step dovetail which allow you to hide that so that's what the class will entail and every time we teach the class there are six civilian students of which right now by the way there are two spots left in October one two spots left in October and two left the end of August end of August is a new class because of the virus we've had to bump the may class up to the end of October we had a couple people that weren't able to do it so there's a few spots open there but that's it in every class there's also six combat wounded veterans these come from mostly United States but we have no bias we take them from anywhere we've had we've had an Aussie we've had for Canadians to date and 83 Americans so any combat wounded vet whether it's a physical wound or mental wound as long as it was battle related he's welcome to apply and I say that only because that's our little slice of the pie that's where we're trying to gain some experience I hesitate to say expertise in dealing with these folks and helping these folks have no experience don't know anything about the ins and outs of it all I know is we teach some woodworking and it seems to calm them and it works as you'll hear tonight from Jake so if you know anybody that fits that by all means please pass on the information to them all they have to do is go to Rob Cosman comm and if you're on the toolbar at the top and the left is PHP Purple Heart Project down menu has a ton of information the Luther made sure of that and you go in there the application to fill out you do have to fill it out remember we don't know you we have to administer this like triage in a hospital and try to find these individuals that are hurting the most that need our help as quick as possible so you have to fill out the details and I apologize if it seems to be intrusive but we have no other way of knowing who we're dealing with we're not flooded so we have lots of don't don't don't not apply because you think your chances are slim sometimes we only get twice as many as we can take meaning we had room for 15 and we only had 32 or 33 applicants if yes so anyway just and wrap this up real quickly we cover their airfare their hotel their meals and we send each phat home with a Prada it's about thirty two hundred US dollars worth of tools and I have to mention some of our sponsors so I'm gonna help I'm gonna come back to that we're also this is exciting we I've introduced a new program called the bench brigade spearheaded by Jack Lane down in Texas and Jack is just awesome and he's taken this thing by the bull by the horns he's we're really looking for Canadians we need some Canadian volunteers so what you're volunteering to do is this you're volunteering to build I'm sorry I don't have a sample of it here our hundred-dollar bench or the Cosman workbench which is made out of MDF and plywood we will supply the bench dogs and the vise you will supply the materials and you will arrange to ship it or deliver it to that vet we're Jack's working to try to get it so that you're delivering to somebody as close as possible as we have at least three Canadians that have been accepted for this first round which is 18 spots so out of the 18 three of them are Canadian so we need some Canadian sponsors don't want to get into the hassle of having it built in the US and then shipping it across the border so if you're a Canadian and you think you can do it the skill level that required is not that great we will provide you with the recent video that we just came out with along with the cutting list and all the details and we're here to help as well now by way of giving thanks Tom Lee Nelson of Lee Nelson Tool Works has generously donated two mortis chisels - to us each time and I don't mean - I mean - for each vette is it happen what do we use up in quarter so that's a lot of mortise chisels he gives them to us he has agreed to sell me wholesale because I asked them to I said I said you donated enough just we'll take we'll pay for it the skew block plane is an awesome plane for joinery and he has made it so that hopefully their production will be able to be back up and running they'll be able to sell us one of those for every vet that comes to class trend diamond plates have every time we've done this have donated a diamond plate for every vet home right the guys that make the fluid that we use for sharpening give us a bottle every time bessie has donated a bag of clamps for every vet Jake am I missing anybody numerous wood craft stores have stepped up and actually now what we've asked them to do and they're doing it actually give us or or provide the finances to take care of one vet George and Everett down in Knoxville come to mind out in Seattle they have done it as well we've had help in the past from Florida stores both in tennis in Orlando and and Tampa I don't want forget anybody shoot Portland mmm did you mention Seattle Seattle I did yeah yeah so your help is greatly appreciated and you get to participate I can't wait for the first I can't wait for the first bridge Brigade builder to be able to personally deliver that bench to that waiting vet that is going to be awesome so anyway all right done hello everybody thank you for the birthday wishes oh yeah sorry for it well no Ken Ken mentioned it in the chat and I've been getting quite a few Frick is 40 today so Frank you on it no they can see when I the Frick camera I'm thirty five everybody oh and Angie is here watching he acts like he's 40 oh it's early and char you keep us in line make sure every doing something wrong you tell me Jake's oh yeah so yeah I got a couple things for you hope you're not in a hurry so we have been good this is the wrong program for you change the channel we have been bugging IBC for a long time for a quarter an eighth of an inch chisel currently now I'm gonna show them to you this is this is IBC chisels they make a quarter there's our nice pretty they make oh yeah well a med does these handles and that's just a death that's a different world altogether quarter 3/8 1/2 5/8 3/4 and 1 inch that's a I borrowed that from Super Dave that there be Vera would I got it with permission from Dave so there's only one chisel missing and that's on this end there are times when none of these can get into the spot you have to have an 8 inch and IBC does not seem to be in any hurry to make one so we have this guy named Wilfred Brimley friend well Wilfred who is a retired fabricator one of these guys has got he gets around like he's 40 but he's really he's 78 is he 78 are you serious oh my are you sure I'm certain oh wow I'm thoroughly impressed and he's just he's just always looking for stuff to do so he's here and we make stuff worse all over the shop and boy what does he do a great job by the way he makes so a lot of things tell you the casters for benches that that we get from wood craft aren't it's heavy-duty enough they Bend so Wilford makes them adds an add welds on another plate just does a perfect job what else do you make for us oh yeah he does yeah oh and precise work too so look at this we put we tasked them with making us an eight-inch chisel so what he did he went in and he made us so we're going to start selling quarter-inch chisels that are ground down so that you got an inch and a half 1/8 inch you've got your little flat landing you've got your clearance on the sidewall extremely precise and he said when he grinds them because we use we use the new CBN wheel the coarse wheel that we got he said they don't even get hot enough you can still hold them so you don't don't worry about the temper now we expect there's gonna be a huge demand for these because we've been fielding calls for it for a long time Jake says no but I'm saying yes get in the queue you can email me direct but Rob Cosman comm if you want one of these chisels and I'll make sure that you're in the queue and you'll you'll be the first the handles by the way as I mentioned med makes them we're going to soon be able to offer those to you as well and if you want to really bump your tool cabinet up we'll hook it up us one with some of those anything else that's what to tell them no we're 20 or 20 minutes in so you should start at 10 but no you should what are we what do we what what's the price tonight oh we price so Frank said we got to give a really special price so tonight this is Daniel's idea actually oh yeah idea or no sorry it's Charlie race charlie ray Charlie says we should give away rolled toilet paper I said oh yeah what about everybody else so here's what we're gonna give away tonight can somebody grab me some videos or a video that possible have to be somebody out there help so you know our would hinge box right this is my business card versions made out of Ebony and Birdseye I used to sell these for $200 back when I had time to do that dough him anymore but there's one left so this is going to be part of the prize the would hinge drill jig kit is gonna be part of the surprise the rods for both eight inch and quarter inch at apartment 8 inch and sixteenth inch they're gonna be part of the prize now just so that you know the little hinge this uses a sixteenth inch rod and Jake over here I'm gonna give you a quick update on this but the wooden hinge on this big heavy lid yeah a little bit too much for sixteenth so this uses an eighth inch rod now we're also going to include the DVD on making the making the wood hinge and you don't even know about this yet one each of these precise white Whiteside quarter bull no and eyeballs core bark spits this is the quarter inch this is the 3/8 this is the half and these are I'm sorry where's the 3/4 that's the half that's the 3 that's the 3/4 that's the half that's the 3/8 so the same thing that matches the drill jig these will be on our site very soon we got them it's just a matter of working out the details but somebody tonight is gonna get all that we're also going to give away three copies of the workbench video which will enable you to build that bench and something I'm forgetting oh I might forget oh yeah so something else too if you're interested in this if this turns your crank you think you know what this is a lot of fun and I just can't believe how many people think we're trying to hoodwink hoodwink them into something we have an online workshop where we broadcast 3 45 minute episodes each week we've been doing this since 2011 all of those episodes are stored on there and we walk you through the process not to entertain you but to educate you so the idea is I expect you to be able to build this based on the instruction we have on the site are the Sketchup plans for most of them some of them some of them we're gonna get more and you'll be able to go through and learn how to all do all this stuff there's over I know there's over 2000 there could be as many as 20 to 23 hundred episodes already on there I'm gonna show you the I'm gonna show you what we're currently working on in a moment but here's the deal we know you're sitting at home board talk to people every day by the way if you buy something from me I will call you and say thank you you deserve it and a lot of people tell me yeah so glad for these videos in the shop to keep them in or keep them occupied so we thought well what can we do well a membership a full membership which gives you the hand tool library which is seven years of content and tool only and bread or the online workshop we call it now which is a combination of both hand tools and power tools we've switched that from three half-hour episodes a week to three 45-minute episodes each week barring a few weeks where we're teaching the vets that's three hundred and twenty-five dollars a year you can have it for a month for free go on there and just see if you like it if you don't like it no big deal you're not being charged if you like it and you want to stay become a member support us but you can have it there's no strings attached trust me how do they find it alright so we released a YouTube video that Frick will put up there hopefully and you go on there and on that video there's a link and it'll take you right to it and you can sign up and you can get a free month and you don't have to sleep for the next month you just stay up and watch videos all night long and a so I'm this is one of my most favorite projects this is a standing desk that we've been working on for a while I don't want to say how long but you're getting to view all of it and I just want to give you a quick update so cut the drawer fit now the top everything up here has already had its final finish multiple coats down here has only had one coat some none that has to be redone I'm just waiting for some decent weather because ice Brahe outside but they went through and fixed this so that it works perfectly I haven't got it past here because we have to decide on the knob and if I put it in there too tight not gonna be able to get out we're working on this one we're actually doing this one on YouTube just entertain folks show them how we do it because if I don't I'm gonna I'm going to never get it done it's yeah that camera if they have missing a door so you get your little one on the side so the standing desk the whole idea behind it is you're serving customers think of a lumberyard and of course all your stuffs in here they are standing over there so they're going to be signing their bill or whatever on this side most people are right-handed that's why it's fit that way but they have to be able to have a pen or a pencil so that's why this little drawer and then there's a top unit it's gonna sit on here where your envelopes and stuff go you got a great tip from someone just recently on how to implement that I got it I got to confess something here but I'm gonna do this first so we put in the wood hinge and look at this isn't this gorgeous so the way we did these drawers you can't you can't see there's a drawer there you can't tell but there is a drawer there this one this one in this one that neat will show you how to do all that stuff make them something blend right in now come over here this is sad but you know what sad but I don't care because the most fun I get is when you have a problem and then you got to solve it and this is what happened so we did this you saw how whether that other drawer fit so we did this drawer and I'm looking at I said that does that's not right and I'm thinking okay well it just hasn't oxidized and every time I'd kept myself what is wrong with that did I get that backwards so I took it out I turned it over like this no it didn't and then Jake was in here and he's messing around like he does I always find his problem and he says oh wait a minute now he turns it like that and puts it in there and I said oh no somehow I got this turned around what am I gonna do I can't live with it X can't so here's what we're gonna do and you'll see it all if you remember you're eating you're on your trial I have to take 1/8 of an inch off of all of this and I'm a time I well I'm not telling you anymore you have to watch it to see but I'm gonna do it I'm gonna save it and when I'm done you will know B if I hadn't told you you wouldn't known okay Jake ready how's our what are we up to Frick viewers 441 shall we do it now no no we haven't done anything we haven't done anything we're we're keeping them busy sure so here's how it works sorry I gotta come back to this if you want to be in for the draw just what do they do for it so they just well I have the link playing at the bottom corner of the of the video all night long so you just go to draw dot Rob Kozma calm answer three simple questions and then your name will automatically be added and then there's also a link on there if you wish to donate to the Purple Heart Project it'll take you right to the page so you do not have to donate in order to have your name in the draw we can't tie the two together however if you would like to if you would like to give back to these folks who have literally laid it on the line we welcome your generosity and your support it costs us approximately a little better than we got update this figure $3,500 US per soldier we bring in we do 36 a year do the math and we finance it through the sale of our saws so if you buy a dovetail saw from us 10% of the sale of the saw goes right to the Purple Heart program we don't take out any fees of any sort the tip goes right to doing that Frick does barbecues all summer long that we raise money with figma do and and hopefully hopefully this summer and donations that we just get from folks who particularly guys have been to the class who understand what's going on they become very generous so please do not donate through youtube they take 30 some-odd percent go on our site there's a link on there but it's on our site under the Purple Heart project how can you help pick your favorite wood and then multiply it by ten yes go we got everything done our half an hour in quit telling me that you're making it sound like they're not enjoying what we're talking about well they are there's we need to finish this project I know we don't have to Angie Angie's patient okay so there's how far we got so far but we have to finish the rest of this before we can proceed and we haven't done that side these ones have all been cleaned out that just to avoid confusion I'm gonna go through and clean this one out before we start before we tackle that one at some point I'm gonna leave it up to you guys to tell me we're gonna introduce Jake and have him the other Jake it was awkward when they both them were in the same room now I'm gonna use my fretsaw and just in case you've not familiar with this tool the blade we use is at 12 and a half teeth per inch skip tooth blade skip tooth means that where there should be three teeth there's only two the gullet is the space I know this is awful hard to see is the space between the teeth that's where the sawed up and saw this ends up going as the tooth is cutting through the wood and until it gets out of the wood the sawdust builds up in that space and if it builds up to the point where you can't put any more in there it stops cutting so a skip tooth is gonna cut faster because you have more capacity for spent sawdust the throat is only three inches which means and something like this should be limited so what we do after I put the blade in and it's always designed to cut on the pole so the teeth are grabbing as I pull it this way teeth are clamped top and bottom you first you tighten up with the frame and then you turn this wing nut which I've broken a mine and that gives that blade nice and tight and then I take a pair of pliers or needle nose and I grab the blade right here and I give it about a thirty degree twist the same thing up here now when I make a horizontal cut the frame actually stays up like that so that I'm not limited in the depth of the throat so that also means that when you drop down here you have to make sure that you bend it over to get so that it's laying with the sides parallel to the kerf and it'll fit down there go to the bottom come up off the bottom and then just cut away a lot of people have difficulty controlling this so I'll give you a few tips drop to the bottom get a sense of where horizontal is come up just a little bit now if I turn this all like that it can't move until I start pulling on it and then it'll just simply cut don't be in a rush however the closer you can saw to the bottom line the less work you're gonna have to do with the chisel and since you're having to make the cut anyway why not be more efficient which I'm not being too terribly efficient because I have a hard time seeing the line I usually put a piece of tape on there painters tape so tell me if there any if you're one of the vets that have been to our workshop as one of our one of our scholarship that's please say something about that in the comment section so that I can we can give you a shout out and say hello what am I doing with this oh yeah I didn't get I need some more light so my marking gauge my marking gauge I didn't like I could have done that side with the marking gauge did I know I need my I need my extra eyes so I believe this is still set no it's not I'm gonna set this back to where it was and all I'm doing is having the cutter drop into the gauge line and I'll lock it now if I'm really careful I'm gonna put this in the vise do it if I'm really careful I should be able to drag that across is Derek on asked Charlie if Derek's on tonight or Charlie I'm asking you if Derek is on so I'll say hello where's that 17 degree now I'm gonna come in here and I'm just going to make a little cut right there now for some reason that is not in the same spot how come son-of-a-gun I cut that line down too far now what I got to do is go in here and get rid of some of that I can't have a gap in that shoulder and if you see what I did that line doesn't that line I just made doesn't line up with with this base line so I'm gonna have to take some material off of here try that again super davon mm-hmm so what do we call now super dev kill Dave well call him chicken Dave - the chicken the chicken man my brother do that one so Dave took his dovetail skills to a whole new level when he built a chicken coop for his wife and dovetailed all the egg nest egg laying boxes no I want that standing plum he's Lutheran sure is better be he's answering the questions atta boy Luther you know every time so I have to ever start just one second so Luther has a sister whose name is Alice Alice I believe is 52 she is Down syndrome and on Tuesday Luther called me and said he said my daughter my sister has just been taken to the hospital with a lot of symptoms later that night he told me he said she tested positive later that night she was on a ventilator and the next morning he said the doctors were surprised he's still alive so I started telling everybody that I knew too that knows us and there's a lot of people that I've been praying for Alice and she's still alive this is Saturday so I think she's beating the odds so if you are the praying type and if you're not start remember Alice Schiele in your prayers I can't imagine someone in her condition not being able to have anybody around her that she knows tubes down your throat scary ordeal so Lucy everybody's pulling for Alice all right what are you gonna say Jake well I was I was gonna give the reasoning for why dave has become such a super dumb town I'm turning this around because I want to address I want to cut from the side that's going to be most visible now tell the story of the well his wife's being his wife Michelle is being forced to work from home and I said forced to be around him spend more time around him no and so now he's forced to make it look like he's actually busy every day when she's at work instead of just sitting on the camera fighting the coach for the dog girl that's a that's an Alaska okay now this is a long cut I'm actually gonna switch and I'm gonna use my this is a place where I'm gonna use my crosscut saw now if you want a nice stone I can't can't be - over over but this is a great saw and the reason I'm doing this is just because I wanna yeah I'm afraid that the ripsaw which is adopt Assad is gonna have a tendency to want to wander like that it doesn't have a lot of it doesn't have anything on either side directing it so if you were ever gonna look at a rip saw versus a cross cut cross gotta have these series of points the teeth point off to one side so they actually hold a line really nicely very slow when it comes to ripping but very effective when it comes to cross cutting so I'm hoping that I'm gonna be able to hold my line better with this and true to the way we teach I wanted to come everything to come right from the side I don't want to have to go in and make corrections with a chisel after the fact yeah I got chicken I got chicken and I drifted off at least that's better than drifting in so now what I've got to do is go in here and just well you can see it right here if you had my eyes you can see the improve that edge you're gonna catch this soft soft pine you've got a thank you and they you can get in that tight any questions am I talking to myself how are our numbers 533 winds jet winds Jake coming on whenever you make a little bit of progress here you guys are nasty first old now and he's getting cranked yeah that's right crotchety he's become a curmudgeon how does it feel to be 44 35 you feel like you were in near 35 a little bit good thing he married a young wife true she's only 2 years younger than me but such a awesome father we laughing at you Tooting your own horn somebody has to I think you lucked out really we wouldn't be alive right now without me okay change the subject all right now sit right here and go in there I'm looking at distance wonder what is going on here and it doesn't look square is barb on I think we forgot to tell her no I don't see barb if you if you are have plans to build the bench for yourself anytime soon we had quite a run on it it was a very successful launch even surprised Luther and as a result we are almost out of vices but did you say we have left Jake so there are six vices left they are made in Sweden I cannot give you a date when we will have more trying as we are same with bench dogs bench dogs are out we're trying to get more okay now here's where I can't use I can't use my marking gauge I can't get down to that line you know what I could do you know what I could do I'm gonna try something I wonder if I was to cut a bit off right up here which would eliminate that oh look at that Jake I can do it what's the matter you mic not working this stuff is so soft that any pressure in the wrong spot and it has a tendency to crush now I can't really get I've got to have some kind of a ledge to start on I don't want to be starting on the side of a hill so I'm gonna go in here and just take the top off and see if I can't can if I can yeah your side's tempted you're tilting this one don't have a whole lot of material there to do so middle he probably could have chiseled remember I'm looking for opportunities to extol the virtues of that chiz that saw high five Luther if you're looking for an excuse to buy something get Jake to make you some 17 degrees especially in the IBC they're well worth having particularly when it comes to dealing with soft woods like this don't I'm sorry well I'm okay now people often say all pine pine they downplay pine let me tell you something about it it's what we typically start our students with and the reason is you have to be so careful so careful the slightest mishandling and I'm looking for a backup a slightest mishandling and you're going to wreck you're gonna leave a dent Hey right down there that's the bottom for the other drawer anyway that piece in the corner is no I'm talking about the only piece of pine that was the well that I want to be able to save that for the drawer the little drawer oh so you you just have to handle it very carefully no it's got resin on it so it picks up dust now that's gonna require a quarter and I don't have to hit very hard so I'm gonna use my small mallet you're heating it when it doesn't sit flat good idea when you're doing this is to go down about a third of the distance when you start chopping on the inside hi Rita Myers Oh Rita is hi Rita Rita runs Heartland forest and she made our experience there second to none except for the night that she made me be the one to call down at 2:00 in the morning and tell him that the wind had blown over his tent gotta get you back for that one Rita if you have ever heard me talk about marvelous Mike did Julie I met him at Heartland forest and he's made a big impact on a lot of the folks that have come to our workshop the vets in particular but not just okay now I left a little bit too much material oh I was gonna tell you so here's the reason why the fibers have a tendency to crush now the 17 degree will leave a pretty clean spot in between but the fiber senate's have a tendency to crush so the farther you chop from the inside The Closer that fracturing is going to be to the surface I would here this is the part you're going to see you start planing this down if you have to go deeper than you anticipate maybe to get rid of a gauge line you start to expose where those broken fibers came out ruined your joint so if you go if you do it this way particularly on pine if you go one from this side 2/3 from this side you'll be in about that deep before that last piece breaks now this is only really an issue on finish dr. no it's just that this is an issue one I would say this is species species however you say something yes tends not to happen with the harder woods but the lighter woods that fracture easily that Rex since you guys are meeting the family oh they make they met this is Rex my oldest son who's home from hellofax his jobs been put on hold temporarily yeah oh we forgot to mention that so god Derek is here just so you know hey Derek he's not on the chat but he is listening that's awesome he's he's with he's teamed up with Ray Charles pardon turn the Ray Ray Charles you said Charlie so I'm not I'm not worried t-shirts so if you case you're not aware you look up here we have two different ones our t-shirts helps to promote our cause it's it's easy to sometimes easy for easier for people to answer questions than this to bring up the topic so on the back it says we're doing good the other one says wood is good and we've got a third one coming and on the front is our logo of the Purple Heart project and the only way this is going to be effective and I I mean it from a perspective of finding the people who need it it's telling everybody and sooner or later somebody will hear it and say you know what I got a brother a nephew a cousin a niece a sister who suffers from this as a result of military service I got to tell her about it that's how we find most of them we have not had any kind of help from any other organizations so it's a grassroots we've had a suggestion to make the next color like the army green yeah I think that's what we're gonna do we what Jake I'm ready for we get this cleaned out we bring Jake on sure I'm anxious everybody is all right I am sadly depending more on these visors than I should okay I'm working from the front always from the front I'm gonna get in there I'm controlling my chisel with my left hand and my left hand is braced against the front of the board so I can push what we should point out how clean those sockets are are you wanting to grind more chisels well this is too big if you look in there what Jake's talking about this is the advantage of a 17 degree because it allows the chisel tip to penetrate the wood without putting excess pressure on the fiber crushing the ones below it which is typically what happens so you're able to go in there and just slice this stuff beautifully yes Danny would say like better oh that would be Danny Bell Danny on I haven't seen him actually but I haven't been monitoring the chat that much who is Luther's we should have Luther Luther should be on audio we're missing half our staff remember right well Ken Zahn isn't Ken on Ken's on but he's usually here monitoring the chat that's his job him and Megan I'm just in here cleaning up these corners you you have to have sharp corners if not you'll damage the corners of your pins when you put it together and then you end up with Phillips instead of nice sharp corners Jake we offer the 17 degree in both the Wood River chisel mm-hmm no oh no no we have got to have the steel of the IBC in order to hold up at that angle you can't use them in hardwood they're only for soft woods or soft woods not necessarily coniferous okay now is he on ready to go I wondered so Jake trolla came to us in spring of last year he was in our first class that we taught here second class that we taught here and Jake had a very touching story I don't know how much of it he wants to share with you but somehow the word hockey came up and he says oh I play ok good you're on so we got him gear and he came out twice with us during the week and he was good goalie for an American he's a good hockey player actually was even even passed for a Canadian anyway great guy and he's continued he's done a lot of work he built his own bench and I'm with him introduced am I gonna be able to hear him no do you wanna come over yes I do firk rich camel we're going to is he talking for which can where we go guys here good shirt can you hear me yeah I got any free in here take one more time you hear me yeah dad you something to go ahead yeah Jake don't you're on yep oh you can't hear dick in here not at all Jake just a second I can hear you but apparently they can't no it's not it's not you Jake just give me one second here I don't know why worked when we test it this morning oh wait I think I know say something there White's not picking that up did when we did our test switch on the wall just turn the temperature down to shut off okay Jake I'm gonna call you back from Rob's phone we're gonna have to do it the the old-fashioned way sorry about that we'll call you back in a second I think we could still use that email address actually all right all right we'll call you back just for a second yeah you're gonna take a minute yep all right so they never heard any of that sorry we were doing so well yeah at least we didn't lose the connection all right we'll get set out you're back Jake just one sec as soon as we get him back on the line technology always works when we test it and that's why I do would never fails me except when I turn things around the wrong way get that flush set that back we referenced off the front Jake I think we did yeah oh we must have although I would have thought we did the other side I'm going to I'm going to assume I'm pretty sure we referenced over here well if the pieces of the same width it won't make a difference so they are the same way the other I've changed them now but I changed it after yeah I remember I took the wet cover the thickness of this down or the width of that because of the screw-up I did now this is already set shoot it would have been set from last week too but I'm gonna go reset it just in case I always like to hear that drop so I know it's touching that's why I like to do it on a metal put this in place make sure there's no debris in there that's gonna prevent that from registering grab my dovetail marking knife that would Luther was calling to say he couldn't hear probably I'm ready to go whenever you are oh yeah let's go right now we're hot for this am I gonna be able to hear without yeah you're gonna okay Jake I hate to do it I hate to do this to you but I need to start over they didn't hear anything like when I need you we just before he starts talking and we get a text from somebody online make sure you got me set up or what yeah Jake we got you all right from beginning again yeah please sorry about that okay okay so I was I was in the Army I was a paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne Division I did three tours and it's kind of like hitting the I get struck by lightning twice I was stopped lost and then I was recalled so when it was time for me to get out of the army I wanted nothing to do with the army anymore I I wasn't physically wounded so I thought I was fine no issues got out in a little while later it kind of hit me like a freight train it started realizing I had some some mental issues PTSD TBI and I I think that's all why a lot of guys a lot of the veterans today are turning to suicide is because they don't know how to deal with what's happening to them so I'm turn to drugs or alcohol and eventually suicide so I stumbled across the PHP and I got to when I got to rob what the biggest thing it did for me is it gave me an off switch that's that's the best way I can describe it and doing hand tool working doing what working is its it gives me the ability to think about whatever comes in my mind and I can shut it off by going to work with wood and using the tools that he that they've given me I guess that's that's the the biggest thing and that's I think that's true with a lot of the guys that went through the program is in it for lack of a better term it gives you an off switch that that you can control and that is constructive and you're not dealing with suicide alcohol or drugs the civilians in the class like rob has said many times before if it was all vets it wouldn't work there's there's something about having half and half you know six guys there are civilians and six that's with a common interest of woodworking and it just it just works and if you have even the slightest inclination to to sign up for the class like sign up for it if you're a civilian if you're a vet don't try to make the decision whether you're going to be accepted or not just put your put your I your application in and see what happens actually wasn't supposed to be Luther has told me to reapply for the fall and I got a call last minute and talked to my wife she said just say yes we'll figure it out so that's how I ended up there and less spring and how are you dovetail oh pretty good actually have on a little in a race setup just happen to have those they're ready to go she won't you built the bench fill with your bench too I work in a huge workshop but I built Rob's bench before the video came out my my shop is by mechanical room and it's I it's 12 by 15 so you don't need a lot of space for it when I did everything I mean it try to model that exactly after the class was so right down to the tool tray right down the tool tray yeah so give us a good close-up of you Jake is an excellent craftsman he did he did awesome work I have evidence of it here so this is cherry and Aspen and that night bye so how many dovetails had you cut before you came to the class zero these small ones are little buggers a lot of fun though pen in oak Oak and cherry yeah the scraps that I had yeah excellent work you snatch the pebble grasshopper yeah you snatch the pebble grasshopper Jake thank you it was great having you in the class you were you were you really brought a lot to it and you know I don't even think you realize that but and we've been in touch a lot since plan to continue we will see you again yeah thanks for doing this thanks Jake Jake okay brick we're gonna get that figured out someday words nice and smooth sure all right hopefully okay so here we go cutter on top move the gauge over to it I wonder why that's just a little bit higher hey now we offset to my left we're going to go to the right of each tail reach down drag that through I'm being careful so as not to tear out any fibers on this side the more times you do this the deeper the cut the easier it is to start and to keep your saw plumb big advantage one of the reasons why it's so critical that this saw cut on the tail board that I'm running through be perpendicular across the end if it's perpendicular here that means it's plumb going down and that's what's gonna start your saw did we did we use that technique Jake on the last one remember the contortion yeah no we didn't should we do it this time and I want to keep that over tight should you be on this side at least part of the time they're getting they're getting a view that's not my burp my view and if they wanted wanting to be in my position they should be over here looking over my shoulder try it okay this time we're up underneath move it over carefully I don't like slamming yeah nice and tight okay so I'm offset to my right so I'm going to go to the left side now I'm being careful because the grain is running off like this and I don't want to be pulling fibers off of the face of the pin you'll look over here how the fiber came off off that way but that's waste it's being removed but now on this side it's not going to be it's gonna actually be the part we're keeping so how's our time Frick we're at an hour in ten minutes okay watch it we have to we have to can't go two hours tonight almost but not quite what's attendance mid 500s power in mid 500s don't forget our cause doesn't take a lot if everybody just contributes a little this is the one that I screwed up on remember I went in I started and I had to recorrect so now I'm gonna do is I got to make sure I'm careful to hold the knife tight to that side of the tail and not let it drift over here in that larger kerf area that was caused by my poor craftsmanship all right there we are now buy a pencil Oh get my Angie pen this is my Angie pen mark my waist numerous times said it takes less time to mark your waist than it does to screw up and have to start over so mark your waist now I can use my dovetail marker for this turned on its side you know I got to get rid of this oftentimes this burr that gets created from the knife gets in the way so just get rid of that before you come in and drop your perpendiculars dovetail saw zoom out and do it dovetail markers are on sale this month what do you know I'm part of the marketing campaign yeah but the when did that go out today oh it did the newsletter went out today yeah guys are so efficient I had to switch cuz my pen was American now when I do this I try to remember to start from the bottom and come up for the simple reason that it is easier to start at the line and come up than it is to stop at the line now you say well what's the problem with going below the line well you're training yourself through the entire process to follow the line with your saw so if you do that and then invert n't lis follow the line past the past the gauge line now you're in trouble now I'm gonna put a piece of tape on there as you normally see me do simply because I purposely made a very faint line Howard donations tonight Frick you paying attention to that no let's make into shop UI that's Megan's jobs Megan on she is hi Megan Megan's in Utah visiting her family okay shouldn't want to be quarantined with Jake so I'm like I'm like poor Michelle super Dave's wife right down to the gates line no I I haven't I haven't asked a question yet I haven't been asked a question yet right I haven't answered a question is what I meant to say Luther's all over it he's being too efficient yeah I'll take the next one now I look no can't blame that I may have to come back and make a few adjustments on these he's Jeff mon Dieu wronged me Jeff O'Connor on I can't no I don't think so alright I have a question from Rendon he said Rob's always using different saws is that because he's testing them what do you mean different saws I don't think you because you're switching between crosscut and and dovetail different different tooth configuration different different job now I'm going in and just fixing the side of a couple of these where I look really close I'm a little bit away from my line so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna put my saw in here I'm gonna twist it this way so I can just go down the side of that tail you should explain me that that can be repaired this off is this one can would be repaired the opposite can't just like Jake said meaning if I had cut into the pin I gotta live with it like I may have done over there I'll just blame it on getting old alright fretsaw timer can start doing that now too I can probably can it's 40 you got what days that seniors discount out for Tuesday Wednesday Thursday you'd be able to go do your grocery shopping me for anybody else that's right which I hear is not all it's cracked up to be well ken told me so they've got it so that you're in single file going down the lanes he said you get some guy in front of you who has to stop and read all the labels are you tombow costco no using so visa well I know since I work at Costco that our seniors hours are actually much busier than than our regular so it's kind of defeats the purpose sometimes what's the age for the seniors hour so a year and a half and I can go you would be can't wait [Laughter] [Laughter] remember to swing around because you're opening is wider at the front than visit the back so Luther says you've missed a good opportunity there to really explain the difference between the saws and and promote them if you will well what Luther may have missed is that I already did that but I will again crosscut saws do a superior job at cross cutting and rip saws do a superior job cutting parallel to the grain so you need a matched pair you know what you should do dovetail crosscut what do that demonstration where you take a piece of wood and you use a chisel you really want me to do that doing this you marketers okay here's what they want me to show you if I take I showed Dave super date Super Dave I showed him this and his jaw was on the floor for the next half hour laughing or he said it was life-changing oh well all right so here's what we're gonna do we're gonna demonstrate the difference between a crosscut saw on a rift it's a dramatic example in case you don't have a crosscut by the way we this is our number one selling tool heard of Tulsa and our crosscut saw which I personally think is a better crosscut saw than anything else out there by higher by a higher margin than our dove two saws better but people have not been exposed to it so I'm gonna take this eight inch chisel which may do an even neater job and I'm going to show you what happens when you use so a dovetail saw has a rip tooth as does a medium tenon or a tenon saw okay the tooth looks like a button if you were to look down the line you can see a bunch of chisels there that of the tooth is flat across the top so when you're on there and huge offset by yeah slightly when you cut with them parallel to the grain each tooth knocks out a piece of wood and you end up with nice neat Cerf use it across the grain I'm gonna go over here on this one use it across the grain where it's not the best suited and look what happens you get a mess okay so the crosscut saw instead of having teeth that are flat across the top they have three-sided teeth that are pointed and each one of these points one points this way the next one points that way this way that way this way so the crosscut teeth come in we'll show them that shape okay so that's one two three sided okay knife one two three can you imagine teeth like this so what they do is they come in and they make they score the wood like that on one side then turn this around do it this way and then they score the wood like that on the other side they're cutting across the fiber and then they clean out the material in between kind of like the way the ripsaw does I went over to far but how to not touch that you'd end up with a nice clean shoulder so that's the reason why you want to different sauce so number one saw to buy is a dovetail you're probably going to use it more than you use a crosscut but number two a close second would be your crosscut saw why do I say this well it just it makes it makes the work easier and the it improves the performance which is ultimately gonna make you happier because you don't have to go back and fix a bunch of mistakes that we're equipment issues that didn't need to happen in the first place okay remember I'm coming in from the backside so I'm only gonna go down about a third of the way and I mentioned this last time I'm going to mention again I I chopped right up tight to the pin on that side right up tight to the pin on that side and then take this center section out using the middle of the chisel and you remember now there's too much material here so I'm going in I'm gonna relieve some of that waste that would otherwise build up and push on the bevel side of the chisel forcing the chisel back like this and breach my line don't want that now how much is too much well if you can see that digs up close that was too much and why I always go into each corner first is to prevent that chisel from twisting as a result of more pressure on one end than the other or one side see if I I did this last time but I'll do it again in case there's people that didn't see it before if I were to go over here chop there then chop there when I go to chop this bit right here there's nothing putting pressure on this side of the chisel there's only pressure being applied on this side of the chisel when I say pressure I mean waste putting pressure on the bevel pushing the chisel that way so the uneven pressure is twisting it like that and sometimes it'll twist it in and you'll end up getting a little undercut in here you don't want that so if you do it the way I just showed you it won't happen particularly with pine make sure there's no debris underneath you don't want bruises in your wood okay now what I'm going to do is remove some of that then I'm going to get right in here tight to the corner start and then lean forward so that I can follow I'm going to go down here do the whole line give it we're just gonna give a shadow to OTO he's an infectious disease worker in Calgary and he's using this video to during his break Auto right now so just to calm him down he says frontline deal with the chaos Thank You Otto appreciate what you do honestly I have three daughters that live in Calgary and a grandson Jake film from over in this side place I want to show them what I'm talking about so I'll get rid of the XS first watch how I do this I started in the corner first one registers it then I lean it forward so I follow that face if I do it successfully I can completely eliminate what would be another step now I'm looking at this grain and it's really going off like that and it's it's it's making the making the situation a little more difficult in that it makes these corners of these pins really fragile Rex do you need me for something and now we're in this corner and then we'll take our center section out using the middle of the chisel so that one corner doesn't have a tendency to dig in too much material there another little tip for you is when you're doing this it's really easy to have the chisel bounce on you you start pounding on it it bounces it comes up and then comes back down somewhere where you don't want it so I find it beneficial to keep some pressure downward pressure with my left hand so that I have lots of control and that can't happen and remember again if you're working with pine it can be so fragile and mark so easy okay let's put this in the vise how did they like my demo on the they really liked it really some of the comments that's that's the kind of stuff they the reason they're here yeah yeah that's what they said couple them wow if our very own super why am I doing this then fill the time I'll just do tool demonstrations explanation what did you say about super day well our very own super Dave was a man's man he was just making me feel good Jake he already knew all that stuff I think he got teary eyed hold it together soup do you put a micro bevel on the 17 degree mic yes always it's easiest way to sharpen but I keep it low I don't do much um kind of defeats the purpose it's required that you put a micro bevel in it I've had a customer buy the chisel and without sharpening it he went to use it and the edge folded well that micro bevel would would toughen it up a little bit and I'm just going back that but in which it sharpens it so it's cutting instead of pushing I'm just going in here to check because I don't think did this on this particular piece how tall is the bench thirty-eight no no this one I'm working at is thirty-six I think thirty-six and a half now I'm gonna I use these a lot and somebody asked me today these are somebody asked me the brand optivisor who did and I use I have two of them they're not that expensive this one I have a number five diopter in it and this is the number three when the number three I seem to like better can tell you why I think it's where the focal point is me Nelson something yeah but if you're if you're as old as Frick you probably ought to get yourself a pair or LASIK like I did oh yeah okay this piece is done and we'll process this tail board now before I go any further I got to go back in and do another little promo so are what we're giving away how many people have applied for or how many people have put their name in the Hat for the draw we currently have 339 okay so tonight's giveaway we're going to give away three copies of the Cosman workbench new release boarding up hours and then four and a half hours of nothing but pure instruction includes a cutting list and two-dimensional plants that will be prized number one two and three prize number for the grand prize will be one of my wood hinged boxes business card boxes the DVD on how to build it including how to make the dowel and all the rest of it the would hinge jig that makes that you can use quarter inch 3/8 half and 3/4 the doubt the rod the rod it's only one pack and then one pack of sixteenth why it's that it's the pack on the right it's only one pack why did you put both in there yeah yeah okay so a pack of rods so you can do either one and four and what the reason we wanted these because they have to be precise in fact I want to show you that do we have it here Jake mm-hmm crap when you when you use these when you're looking for router bits to do that would hinge it has to be half round so when you set the dowel in there it makes contact all the way around also not gonna get very good glue surface and I've never had one fail so this is 1/4 inch 3/8 1/2 and 3/4 all with quarter inch shank since most people have quarter inch shank routers not half and if you have 1/2 you can just buy an adapter so if you want your name in the draw just make sure you go on do whatever Frick said and don't forget a Purple Heart don't forget get a t-shirt a blue one and a turquoise one that teal that was Angie's color so that you can help promote our cause and and if you feeling up to it and you want to participate and you want to give back to these guys donate the Purple Heart project and help us be able to provide this for 36 combat wounded vets every year I don't want to say anything about this year because it only jinx it but we have moved our May class we had to move to the end of August we're still holding fast on June July August August Weiss September and October and we still have spots left two spots in in the October Class and two in the late August dates for the late one for to 29 24 to 29 okay questions Frick I've had one I feel like I'm not working can't see and bring that up a little higher so that I can see it oh I can't see cuz it on my glasses on there's something missing Rick yeah nothing can you make the wooden hinge box without a router well I've been asked that numerous times I haven't tried it yet although if I ever get caught up in inventory I'm going to try it how would you do it would be a challenge well because just we're all our beading planes take yeah here they might be down back here they are right here so there was a time back when Frick was young last week that every router bit every router bet bit would have been a plane so that cuts a little bead and the opposite would cut a cove well if you can cut any shape you can cut a half round and so I think we can do it and I think would be fun to try so the answer is yes I haven't done it but see ethically it should be possible now let's go in there and do a bang-up job if you're not subscribed to our newsletter the colonel puts a ton of work into that and for your benefit it's not a sales newsletter it's a Content newsletter so every month there's a theme what's this month I should know cutting laying a dub dub tail geometry we'll call it how do you get nice-looking dovetails what things do you take into account when you're laying them out for proportions so there's two videos on it and then Luther will have an article on it and we always it's just no written article on this one just do a two-hour it's two topics two topics so it's either two videos and we've been arguing and we advertise one product in each one and you can go back and look at all the previous Winston see what you want we discount that part we discount that product I'm sound like parrot so go on our hey do we have that thing where you just text that number yeah all right Luther handle that with your place and the other thing I want to tell you is go onto our YouTube channel if you're not you're there now and subscribe and then hit the notification thing so you'll know we've been to kind of do something to help with all this isolation we're dealing with Jake and I are filming a YouTube video every day and putting it out there in fact we feel tomorrow's today yeah we did because we day but we did have a we do have a video for you so our good friend Abraham Penske he's a regular here yeah he wants to know why chisel needs three bevels instead of just two why can't the second be than micro bevel well Abraham that's that's not a chisel question so that's a sharpening question because it's so nice it all has to do with just speed if I come in here and I create a secondary bevel and we're doing a freehand remember there's my there's my primary bevel which happens to be 17 degrees so I got to come up off of that why do I have to come up off of that because I don't want to polish all of this only part that does anything is out here so as long as I get up off of that primary bevel I'm going to create a secondary and when I come over here I either have to get that exact same bevel and polish down through all of the one or in this case 500 grit scratches replacing them with 16,000 that might not like it may not sound like a big deal but this is a very slow cutting stone the option is instead of trying to a almost do the impossible which is match that exact same bevel if I come up just a little bit higher then I'm only dealing with the actual leading edge and all I have to do and this is the best example look at this saw there's imagine that being the end of my chisel there's my 1000 grit square 500 grit scratches created by the 500 grit abrasive particles on the stone now if I set that on there and I raise it up higher than the previous previous stone then all I have to do is just get rid of those and replace them with much smaller scratches in this case 16,000 grit but instead of having to do the whole surface I just do the very edge of the blade which results in just little tips of that cutting edge so to answer your for speed makes it really really fast and really really accurate can't imagine trying to go in and actually duplicate that exact same bevel would be impossible you would just be a hit or miss lucky if you got it don't have to worry about it with it with a tertiary bevel now I'm gonna just this it has to be the same as can we give them a quick shot of what's going on in here they'd like to meet the family when I do this I get shot never put your wife on camera with a warning and a good place to hide roughly loud it there there and if you want to know what they're doing you guys have bought up so many of those awesome screws that we are on our second pallet in less than a month that's good oh yeah well I got something new to show you too so they're on their second pallet and they have to the kids do it think of that when you're using those screws poor little Chloe inner we're contain two fingers right to the bone packaging them she's gonna greet I really rate them yes we pay her twelve dollars an hour once a week how does she get more than me she's worth more Frick you get old-age pension yours subsidized okay let me I stop and show you this so people have been stood looking for a screwdriver and I have these that I loved Oh Jake hid them and I like them because they good grip but we weren't able to find them so we've had five how many different brands five additional five additional collection of eight so this is what we've settled on you need to read the story on the Robertson screwed but this is the original read that the original Robertson and it's got great grip and you know what's the difference besides the shank size when that goes on there it doesn't come off and you can win there and start it and it doesn't twist and fall electricians as always I love it because when you're having to put a box on the wall or against on the stud and you've got to reach in the back in order to put it on and this thing will hold I've had him grip so bad I had to leave the screwdriver there come back for it later okay they will be Jake we show stuff like that we have to tell him when one month one month one month we will have those and will have them in so they come in case you just new to this Robertson's have four sizes they have zero which is yellow yellow one green to red and three black and they there's a little scale on the size of screw now and I say sighs I mean the shank size that it works with but they all have that same characteristic and just pleasure to use not as fun as dovetails but they are good careful see how we did oh this is clean nice and clean look at that nothing to do other than to go in there and just get rid of that little bit material so that's what we want we want to make a cut that's that literally splits that gauge line I did it I'm gonna finish off with this and then we're going to do our our draw do you need to cut then what I need to cut it in order to reach down and get that second gauge line no I mean do you need to even cut it can you just chisel that off well I like cutting it dr. Luther fun fact we have 26 people watching with the first name Dave but how many have super Dave as a name looks like just one there is only one okay now I'm gonna go across the top I hope you're seeing if you getting that nice and tight cuz that is just an absolute pleasure to use when this is sharp like that oh boy Paul Morrison commented that the camera work this evening is spot-on and the falldown in you're sucking up all things probably criticizing right now Dave said he could see your head stirring as well so these are all interesting personalities from our past for those of you who
