Hi im from phillippine i love woodworking but i dont have powertools hope u gave me
What type of affordable tool would i need to round off one side of a 2×6 for log siding
How do you chop up firewood with a circular saw?
I’m kind of surpised the miter saw is that far down the list. Any woodworking videos I watch make very heavy use of the miter saw. You can do probably everything you would do on a miter saw with a table saw or circular saw but its not nearly as convenient. Also, miter saws are pretty darn affordable when compared to some of the other tools.
Sander definitely should have been in the first 5
I salute you sir one of the best wood working videos I ever watched.
I fuken smashed that subscribe button!
How can I get these tools
for a newbie like me, you see people using pocket hole jigs for LOTS of stuff. do you have a video explaining proper joints? when to and when not to use a pocket screws?
Fortunately as far as the circular saws and bigger power tools, my work provides them until you become a lead (I install storage solutions) but even in my very niche field I use them daily. And I can’t agree with you more on the battery platform, I’ve always used dewalt personally growing up and still use them today, but there’s a few people who roll around with 4 different brands so they have 4 different batteries and chargers with them, and they don’t want to use the adaptors. So I would recommend for battery powered trying to stick with the same brand. And I prefer battery powered as much as I can up to table/meiter saws because most of the time the cord gets in the way during installs and half the time the outlets aren’t operational, but any major cuts we make are always in the truck or on a balcony if in a high rise, makes clean up much easier.
I did it about three weeks ago. I learned a lot about it on the Stodoys website. Check.
i love you
your amazing
I like the way he goes through the presentation.
I build fish tank stands mainly with 2×4’s and 2×6’s and i was so happy to finally justify getting a 12" Mitar saw. Cutting dozens of boards with circular saw and jigsaw gets really old really fast and the cuts werent always straight. Now i can cut boards quickly and they are more precise and the cut is always straight!
Table saw is my next purchase, cutting large pieces of plywood for doors and stand skins is a PITA with my jigsaw
Bless me uncle John Malecki.
Very informative
wont a table saw work as a joiner and some times planer for flat edges??
I want to buy mechin
This clip is one long advertisement for several brands. Way over the top
Who’s using an impact driver in a workshop. my impact lives on site. The only time it sees the inside of my workshop is when it’s being cleaned… Which is never. And who screws stud work together. Nail it always.
Yinz? You from the city of champions?
Nice 👍
well i have everything but a planer and jointer , ill add those to the list
I’m so happy I stumbled upon your channel John. The content is amazing! I had a question that I hope you or maybe your minions could answer. How did you get started? What’s the John Malecki or minion origins story? Secondly could you answer this in a video with suggestions for others who want to start working in a shop for a shop or for you lol, thanks in advance. You guys are great 👍
I am a novice looking to go to school for carpentry. I have fallen in love with woodworking in 6th grade middle school and want to start my own business. However, I want to only use hand tools. No power tools at all. Traditional techniques and alike
Might be a stupid question but; why do you need a table saw and a circular saw? Straighter, longer cuts? I’m working on a budget and they seem like they do the same thing
♥.♥ Thank You.
We’ll done good job , I’m chief Engineer I have almost every tool’s .
@John Malecki Hey John what is your go to woodpeckers measuring tool? Say if you were to buy your first, which would it be?
It’s good when you have some good money
Let’s go Steelers. Big Ben wishes you were still active
Sponsored unrealistic garbage
Man, I felt that " I freaken love ya"!
is there a reason you didnt include sander? maybe because you can hand sand things and that’s expected to own like a tape measure, pencil, glue?
Thank you
And the sander? 😂😂
For a start can a track saw take the place of a table saw?
I wonder how much all this costs. Daamn
I might say that was a good video for people who don’t know that much about them. I would watch more of videos, but it’s hard to find!!
Being from the UK, I love how the US literally have tools for EVERYTHING to make the job easier. I was a plasterer by trade, and always remember working with an old joiner who still used a saw which he sharpened, hand planers, hand drills and chisels……the guy was a true artist and his work was millimetre perfect!
Hello video, happy 1 year birthday!!
It’s also interesting to me that you really stress safety with a router and not so much on the table saw. I would think there are way more table saw accidents than router accidents. I haven’t looked up any stats or anything but I’ve just heard about a lot of table saw injuries and I don’t think I’ve heard of a single router injury.
He sounds like iron man, and every tool is apparently the “most versatile tool you can have in your shop.”
damn. i love the ron swanson picture. where can i get one of those?
What about bosch is that any good
GOD Bless You My Brother! Thanks For The Lesson “Teacher”, Truly My Friend. ONE LOVE!
The biggest problem as a beginner is justifying tool cost for something you might end up not liking to do. But the other side of that is cheap tools lack the accuracy that more expensive tools have and crappy results is not a confidence builder. It was when I finally decided to spend the money on good stuff did I realize I’m pretty good at this. Wouldn’t call myself a journeyman but I’ve made some nice stuff. Good luck to all you newbies out there.
Don’t buy cheap tools even if you have to save for a while buy Dewalt, yes they are more but worth it in the long run. But I will say i have a old black and decker jig saw it worked great but after years bought more expensive jig. Some say Iam too old fashion but i do like tools with cord even though i have a couple cordless ones.
I see a belt/orbital sander is missing from this list. My orbital sander was maybe the third power tool I bought after my cordless drill and circular saw. I actually probably use it the most out of all my handheld tools.
