Excellent craftsmanship. Beautiful work!

Nice but miles beyond my capabilities.

This was great, so clear and to the point, the side by side comparison helped so much! Questions; I noticed your PRE STAIN said "oil based" 1) --Is there a "pre stain" that works with the water based stain? 2) here are some steps I want to use-- wiill this work? Step 1- sand,prep and then PRE STAIN with wood conditioner that is WATER based---- this is because I am going to use the water based stain AND I would like to REALLY consider staining with ACRYLIC PAINT( these are water based) 2) wipe off the stain as you said 3)This next part is a big question; I REALLY WANT to use --- LACQUER as a top coat!! Can I use the LACQUER top coat OVER the water based stain AND the WOOD conditioner and NOT get ANY adverse effects???? NOTE: I have USED acrylics and top coated it WITH LACQUER and never had any problem--- I just have no idea what would happen as I would be using the PRE STAIN wood conditioner also, Do you have any idea of effects of USING SPRAY LACQUER, as the pre stain conditioner is already on the piece?? Thanks for this great video!! Any ideas are very much appreciated!

"Aim for a little too tight." Got it Coach! I'll bet you wish you had the VRS to help with dust.

This was SO helpful. other videos i watched didn't go over the process nearly as well as you did and neither of them talked about pre-stain conditioning. I'm so glad i watched this

Clear concise instructions with excellent editing. I recently had to relocate and build a shop 1/4 the size of my last one. That meant making a new, smaller sled. I, too, bought T-track for runners. I planned to use them like you did but was going to flip them the other way to eliminate the need for chamfering the screw holes. Is there a reason not to do it this way?

dust is an issue - but can't you just stick some grippy stuff onto the bottom of your home made tracks?

6 inch jointer is good enough for small things. Buy big. Way big.

I have an old 220 belt drive craftsman on a weak byt decent stand. I rip 2.5 inch slabs of walnut, oak, cherry, and a lot of other kinds.

Great video! What color stain did you use in these boards?

Dang, really nice dresser...and it only took 29min. Hell yeah

I am using Varathane Premium stain and it says "no pretreatment necessary". Should I believe them or pretreat anyway?

Can the top coat be sprayed on with something like an HVLP sprayer? Would that be better than brushing on?

great video, I learn something new, thank you.

Great video, keep it up.

Great video, very easy to understand, and good sense of humor.

Please what was the first model of the Leigh dovetail??

I have made a total of one cross cut sled but hardly every use it. I have a miter saw that does it all. Go figure

….and I need a joiner, a belt sander and a router table. Actually what I need is a woodworking shop. Great video thought if you have the big boy toys.

You used an oil base top coat not minwax then used a water based poly. How is this suppose to be effective. Shouldn't oil stick with oil???

I'm halfway through a sanding , staining. Verathane application on a set of stairs

I cannot count the number of tools I own because they are red 🤣. Seemed ok until I painted the pegboard red 🤦🏻‍♀ Going to go in now and do the 5 cut on my existing sled, excellent explanation!!

You said use Tico oil for the first coat and tunnel oil for the second coat? Or are you just using tongue oil? I have a brand new teak vanity for my bathroom and I want to condition it before we start using it.

I hate painting in general but I'm doing some shelves for a closet and your video has helped a lot!!! Thank you

Great video and question for you... I’m trying to stain some wooden bases/plaques I picked up at a craft store. Only SOME of them are absorbing the stain. They were all sanded and treated with Varastane preconditioner. I waited over night for the conditioner to dry because there is NO mention on the can about needing to apply it right away. It just says wait 30 minutes before staining. Any idea of what’s going on here? 😐

Always remember, useum stickum with numbers as little as possible .

Biscuits, I came across your channel today and have watched several of your videos. The tools I regret buying are the tools that I thought I should have but find myself not using them at all (belt sander) or should have waited until I could afford a better quality (Grizzly tablesaw), etc... Absolutely love your content and style so you have a new subscriber!

Average Wood workers like myself have really benefited from UA-cam channels like yours.just a couple years back we did not have an opportunity to watch and learn about the step by step process and building such a beautiful piece of furniture it gives me the courage to take a chance to build those bigger more expensive projects and cut down those Costly mistakes.thank you and well done.

Sorry but this is not a track, its a complicated straight edge. A track has two rails to ensure a straight cut, this is not that and the saw could drift.

I prefer to do that kind of assembly 90 degree on the side if you want. So the side panel is on the bottom and you just set the stuff in and, then, add the other side over it after. Important so put a piece of wood before so you get some clearance to set the clamps... And, for sure watch your square out of the 4 corners (I generally use clamp in diagonal). Less efforts. I got a bad back so...

Hi fantastic furniture great tips good video

Lovely job. Just tuned into your channel, video and i love it.

I’m curious if I should use the second method without the conditioner. You mentioned you use the conditioner to mute dark and light areas. The project I am getting ready to start is a blue stain. I really like how it’s supposed to go from almost white to dark blue to ocean blue. Would you recommend skipping the conditioner for this specific project?

Why not get sticky rubber for the bottom of your home made track? That stuff isnt expensive

Biscuits, came across your channel, Love your honesty and clear advice.

After woodworking for 55 years, I actually learned something from this gentleman. So glad to have found this channel.

Great video and very useful tips! Thanks John. God bless!

This deserves a subscribe for sure. LOL I had to rewind simply due to laughing so hard I missed the next minute after you said "put your floppy member on the piece". LMAO This just took wood working to a whole new level. LOL

I liked and subscribed, I learned at least 3 things in this video, never to old to learn a few things 👍

Biscuits! I had the same experience with dowel joinery. I’m sure a lot of people find it efficient and are good at it, but I just found it frustrating.

Good thing i stumbled into this video really helpful, also I did not know about the last part, thank you!

Where is the link to your buddie Lee's DIY version of these clamps. The channel name was incomprehensible to me, sorry

Christ 5 sentences to say “remove the bur”

3 minutes in and I’ve subbed. You have clear instructions/descriptions without droning on in close ups like so many others. Your tips were also good.

A friend sent me a text to check out your channel. Glad he did, you have some good videos. I use a lot of the items you mentioned. 1.I have several 5 gallon buckets and I put them under the out feed table of my table saw, joiner, planner, lathe, chop saw, band saw, they come in handy to throw cut offs and trash in. ( Fast Food restaurants go though a lot of pickles and throw 5 gallon buckets away, you can get them free if you ask.) 2. I buy the large roll of brown paper and use under my glue ups for easy clean ups. 3. I never put water on my Diamond stones, it will cause rust in the lower valleys of the stone, I use automotive glass cleaner, it is ammonia free and a great lubricant. 4. I throw my Desiccant packs in the microwave for a few seconds to renew them and they are good as new. 5. I keep my shop locked and installed a door bell for family and visitors to buzz in while I'm working in the shop. I don't want no any one sneaking up behind me while I'm running the table saw or lathe. ( I try to practice safety in the shop.) 6. My dust collector is 3 HP and 220 volts. I installed a Magnetic Switch by the motor and run door bell wire to 5 switches around my shop and painted the cover RED. It works for me, (My shop is 40' x 60' and I don't have to hunt for a remote control anymore.) 7. I keep a flea/lice comb close to my sander, it works great to clean the sawdust off the sander so the pad stick tight. 8. I use Grease Lighting cleaner for my saw blades, it works better than simple green to clean the pitch off the teeth of the blade. ( I like you bucket lid idea, I will use it next time.) 9. Large power tool has magnetic switches ( I replaced switch if they didn't come with them) in my area we are always getting power bump. I want the machine to stay off until I reset, not come on when the power comes back on. 10. Used the tooth bushes for years, I took my old electric tooth bush (still working) to use in my shop when I got my new one...Its a good way to recycle instead of throwing it away. 11. I have a sink in my shop to wash up, I keep foam hand soap for simple hand washing and Fast Orange hand cleaner for heavy duty hand washing. 12. I have a security camera system in my shop so I can monitor when I'm not around, I installed lights to leave on inside my shop. I purchased Ceramic Candelabra Socket, E12 Bulb Lamp Holder Screw Base and some 7WATT C7 Bulb (Equivalent to E12 Halogen Bulb 60W, Daylight White 6000K) I took some old oil camping lanterns and retro them and hung them around my shop. Only running 7 watt bulbs keeps my electric bill down and that is bright enough to see color images on my cameras. Biscuit tree wood works, looking forward to seeing your next video.........Thanks.
