VIDEO CORRECTION: When you use the speed square to find an angle, I used the wrong side to make my mark. The proper way is to measure the angle on 45) degree edge and mark on the other 90 degree edge. I was doing this upside down for the camera, got myself discombobulated and marked the line on the wrong edge in the video.

thanks
Dollar stores usually have those bottles for ketchup or mustard
GREAT TO WATCH ANY TIME
THAT MEASURING TAPE EQUAL DIVISION JUST BLEW MY MIND
Watched many tip videos. Easiest to understand and best one yet.
Great hints. Thanks
Hilarious… I have three speed squares like those that I use often. I had no idea what those numbers were along the 45° until now…. they’re degrees! Lol Probably would never have figured that out on my own. Thanks for sharing!
A super great video, keep them coming!!!🤠🇺🇸
The last tip is have a airtight stove. For those projects that fail.
It is very satisfying watching it burn to ashes.
Hey thanks for the tips! I appreciate it as I am just starting out and can really use them!
Tip 2 is certainly a show stopper. Keep posting videos.
Great tips!!!! You got a new subscriber.
Question please, do you have a link for the spray glue?
Thanks!!

WHAT!!! The tape measure trick at an angle is amazing. I feel like I need to pay you for that one cause that’s a game changer.
Another tip: ditch the imperial system and join the rest of the world with metric 😁
Some good tips, especially the one using the tape to divide a board. Thanks for posting.
Easier way to measure and divide if you’re struggling..use bloody metric system.🤷
Nice video. I have some beer suggestions for you. 🙂
Thanks. Greetings from Ireland
You can find the center of a board with a speed square by marking a line about the center then turn it over to the other side and mark a line again. Perfect center.
Math I’m a good estimator, adding and multiplication I use my iPhone.
I think your formula to calculate board feet is wrong. You are supposed to divide the length, width and thickness by 12 , not by 144 as stated on your video. But good tips.
My wife heard “you don’t need expensive tools”. I heard, “accurate and easier”.
Great video man! I’m a woodworker and Damn great tips!!!
These tips are probably the best wood working tips I have ever watched because they are so useful and easy to do. Im new to woodworking and I’m horrible at math so im always intimidated by some measurements but the measuring tips are awesome and I never knew you could do that. Thanks for the info!
Thanks so much! Good, sound tips. A tip for you, seeing as you’re interested in improving your glue bottle experience. Check out the Glu-Bot, by FastCap. You can find them on Amazon for under $10. Best glue dispenser ever… pulls from the bottom and has a well designed tip. Check it out. You’ll be glad you did.
Number one rule in woodworking whether amatuer or pro, enjoy it. In all probabilty woodworking is or is going to be your hobby, take the pressure off, you’re not building a space shuttle. I can see it plain as day, Penalty enjoys woodworking and the advice he gives is solid. The major myth in woodworking is perfection. Whether amatuer or pro, absolute perfection is myth (unless you’re a robot), allow yourself tolerance for that minor mistake. True a CNC will get one close to perfect but to me CNC is manufacturing not woodworking.
First time to see your videos, you tell the truth as I see it, so I will be back I got 60 plus years in the woodworking trade and learn something every single day. Still love to make sawdust, don’t care if it is cutting hip roofs or building corner cabinets, it is all fun.
I built a cabinet for my table saw and used pocket holes for joinery. I had never used them before but watched enough video so when it was time to go to work there were no mysteries. As was said, do your research….my cabinet is solid as a rock. Great job.
Great job, I love that you get to the point and don’t drag it out.
CA accelerator should be on the opposite surface. If you don’t blob on the CA glue, the accelerator will harden thin applications quickly.
Great tips!!The angling the tape measure to divide boards is AMAZING!!!!

Love your videos! Thanks for your efforts. They are much appreciated. From your neighbor in Mt.Juliet!!!
Great tips and tricks! Maybe a good idea for a video and you said it yourself is when to use and not to use pocket holes!
great tips. I go for the yellow squeeze bottle for visibility. but the transparent has the advantage in showing how much is left or for dif. products. thanks for sharing.
Thank you, I liked most of what you said. I hit thumbs up early. After you advocated creating more plastic waste for convenience, I changed it. I’ll watch a few other videos to decide on subscription.
Take care.
You might want to make sure the strip of timber is straight before you attach it to the ply for the saw track.
Really enjoyed the video. Have ordered some of the Bottles. I have used them for years for BBQ, but never thought about glue. Looking forward to trying this, I know glue bottles are a pain. Watched several of your videos and enjoyed each.
0:50 A defect cord should immediately replaced not taped together. Otherwise you risk an electric shock or setting your workshop on fire. A loose connection may also lead to other surprises like the machine stops in the middle of the cut and suddenly comes back to life and jumps backwards (kickback).
I use mustered, and Hershey’s syrup bottles.
my easy measuring/math tip: use metric!
OMG this is a game changer for me thank you so much for sharing 😃
Edge plate on the guide could be 1/2” tall or even 1/4”. Motors in some skill saws get in the way.
Excellent brilliant usable ideas! Thank you!
Saw guide is still as good now as when I started in construction/woodworking.. I made an 8ft one for rip cuts .. and a 4 ft one for cross cuts .. pocket holes are a great way to attach face frame on cabinets or exterior window trim.. I don’t care what anyone thinks.. great video .. keep them coming..
Your tip on easily dividing board width is awesome and ill definitely be trying that out!
AWESOME MEASURING FOR THE CENTER TIPS!!!!!!!! YOU ARE THE GREATEST!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!! I was going insane just the other day, trying to find the precise middle of a flipping 2×4! How stupid is that!?!
To keep slivers from falling through my miter saw plate, I simply cover the slot in the plate with blue tape and cut through it. It lasts a long time before needing replacement.
Good tips 👍
