We made the world’s most pointless tool for fun
It took $30,000.00 worth of equipment to make this custom 1/4” marking jig. It is used to mark the reveal for face trim on doors and windows… which is a task that can be done by eye or using a tape measure alternatively 😁

Old School Woodworking Tricks Are Awesome 😳
Using “winding sticks” is an old school way to visualize how much twist a piece of timber has…. Enabling someone to straighten it with a planer or sander.
This same task can be accomplished with a jointer, which is a larger stationary shop tool.

This guy is ready to work!
Does anyone carry more tools than this on a daily basis? A look at what Jono carries in his tool belt on a daily basis... over 30 tools, bits, and drivers! His setup is for general home building or carpentry, so he doesn't have any specialty electrical or plumbing tools in the mix here. This does weigh him down a bit, but he always has what he needs to get the job done right.

We Smoked This Drill Bit… and then fixed it
#shorts #woodworking #metalworking
Check out a cool jig made by Tormek that enables us to Re-sharpen dull drill bits! Without a special tool like this it is nearly impossible to match the compound angle on the cutting edge or sharpen a bit symmetrically.
Links to both the sharpening machine and the two bit giga are listed below. They are not cheap, but if you have a lot of dull chisels, bits, and knifes it’s a good buy.

When to use structural screws in framing
We use structural screws INSTEAD of nails a lot while framing custom homes... and they are more expensive than nails. Here's the places we choose to use them.
We use and recommend GRK RSS or GRK R4 screws for common framing applications.
