ONE Simple Upgrade! The Weekend Woodshop 2022-12-03 | My DIY track saw guides could use an upgrade. The original version is kind of slick on the bottom so it doesn't stay in place without clamping it down. The average F clamp has too high of a profile for the motor housing of the saw to be able to clear it so I got some special clamps and today we will modify the guides to work with them.I don't have an affiliate marketing link for the clamps but I do have a normal link to their Amazon listing:Wen 6" Track Clamps - amazon.com/gp/product/B07FCV866T/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

New Shop Tools! - Operation Planer Obtainer :: Picking up our new shop tools! The Weekend Woodshop 2021-10-22 | About a month ago an old friend of mine saw a post on my Facebook feed.

However, we live 700 miles apart. The only logical solution was...ROAD TRIP!

Short #4: What Does Ultimate Mean in Woodworking? The Weekend Woodshop 2021-09-07 | What does it mean when a video title says "Build the ULTIMATE Workbench" or table saw fence or miter station or...well...you catch my meaning. In a video I am working on I ask the same question and I think I have a fairly reasonable answer to the question " What does it mean to be 'ULTIMATE'?" For that video I would also like to know what you think. So, down in the comments tell me what you think it means when someone says ultimate when it comes to woodworking. Did you know?

Dont Spend a Fortune On Right Angle Clamping Blocks The Weekend Woodshop 2021-08-20 | While working on another project I quickly experienced that age old problem that we woodworkers have...not enough clamps. Or in this case, clamp blocks. I needed some right-angle blocks for the box shape I am building. I did a quick search online and found that most of the tools for this start at about $35 and go up from there. So, I decided to make some. Here is the process that I finally settled on. Hope you enjoy!As promised in the video I am making the "plans" for this build available for free to anyone that wants them. I have posted them on my Patreon page as a public post viewable to all.

I Built The Table Saw Rip Fence Designed by @JohnHeisz The Weekend Woodshop 2021-06-07 | Our first project will be to upgrade the table saw fence from the original that came with the saw 35 years ago to something a little more versatile. For the build I have chosen the design by John Heisz from the I Build It channel ( youtube.com/watch?v=B0IHnxhSZsg ). This simple design will allow us to make wider cuts than the stock fence which will open up bigger projects for us in the future. The plans for this fence can be found at ibuildit.ca/plans/wooden-table-saw-fence if you would like to build it yourself.Social Media Stuff:Twitter: twitter.com/woodshopweekendInstagram: instagram.com/weekend.woodshop
