Exactly, & frustration of having to find that 'thing' you put away somewhere safely can upset the flow of the day resulting in errors or rushed work.

Thanks much appreciated, glad you like it 👍 I never cut off things like window cills, this type of thing maybe built in but is classed as temporary, when someone one day removes this they don't want to find some muppet has cut the window cill off. The same goes for scribing around skirting, remove the cupboard & find some lazy d*ck has cut a slot in the skirting instead of taking the time to scribe around it. 😡

@@Gidjoiner sH*T! Looks like i may get a few calls in the future 😆😆

That's what I presume but anyone daft enough to put their fingers in there deserves a bandaged finger, & there's a lot worse tools with exposed blades.. My shop extractor had a 2x2" square grid on the chip inlet which got clogged quickly, a sharp knife fixed that problem 👍

Thankyou, much appreciated 👍 Yep, can be a challenge but in a weird way I like that, stops life being boring 😁👍

Are you sure, maybe it was an illusion 😂... had to in order to use the router, had to sharpen it first too 😮👍

😁 Thankyou, very much appreciated 👍

Thankyou, very much appreciated, it came together ok in the end even if I say so myself 👍 😊

Thankyou, much appreciated 👍 😊

Thanks👍

Thanks👍 I quite like the colour too 👍

Thankyou, much appreciated & you're welcome 👍 Yep breathings a bit better, get a bit winded after a bit of work but I'm getting there slowly 👍. What generally makes me sound worse is the camera phone being close when I'm talking & I've normally just finished doing some work, I was wearing a Bluetooth mike for this which sounds better without the breathing noise.

Hi, thanks, glad you enjoy them 👍 I don't know to be honest, I suspect the fence will be exactly the same, @grahamparsons6620 in the comments of this video ruclips.net/video/ug3LXh4G6K0/видео.html I posted about the fence says he has a corded Makita, he'll be better to advise you, reply to his comment, there's a couple of others with the Makita 👍

Thankyou, much appreciated 👍😊

Thanks, glad it's not just me being petty, that fence would get put somewhere 'safe' never to be found again, then I'd be stuck with the fixed 18mm depth.

That doesn't sound good, I never got that far with the Makita to look at those, the Dewalt has little metal spring loaded star looking things to stop it slipping, they can be locked back into the housing. Little film of those, early morning in my tatty old dressing gown 👍 ruclips.net/video/i7cHiAJDxFE/видео.html. Yeah the fence would get put somewhere 'safe' never to be found again, then I'd be stuck with the fixed 18mm depth.

Thankyou, very much appreciated, it's nice to get comments from pros who know the score when it comes to doing this, 👍

Thankyou, much appreciated 👍 I hate waiting for Pt2 so stayed up late to get them both editing n uploaded. I'm glad you learn from them, that's the reason I share so that's good to hear & I hope you had a good day 👍

Thanks👍

Thanks👍

Thanks👍

👍 I've got one of the hinges on my desk, the gap between the leaves is just over 1mm, I should've looked more closely when I dug them out of a box I had & prob why they didn't get used in the first place 🤦‍♂️😂 So yeah I was going to buy some others, I've got some bearing ones but was sort of trying to keep it looking traditional & it's done now, it's for a friend so any problem I'll sort it out 👍

@@Gidjoiner yer I have binned all them kind just use bearing don’t have to put a leading edge on a door either

Thankyou, very much appreciated 👍 This was a 'getting back to work' project & there should be more to come as I get better & back up n running. in the meantime I've got a few more from 2022 to edit & upload, I'll do them soon 👍

Yep, I've got a few Bosch cordless tools, my collection started with a drill/driver that I couldn't kill, I'd killed a few Dewalt cordless in the past, it's still in my van now & working as it should just like the jigsaw but when converting other tools to cordless Makita was my choice, partly because I prefer them but also because Bosch didn't make certain tools, I quickly found that other tools had to be neither Bosch or Makita & so the charger list grew so buying this Dewalt wasn't such a big deal but ... why don't they look at other tools & think that's a good way to go. 😒

Thankyou, that's good to hear, glad you like them & you're welcome, I'll keep uploading as & when I can 👍

Thanks , you're welcome 👍 It's a personal view but i wish I'd watched a similar vid myself, then i might not have bought it, Maybe it will help others decide before buying, 👍

Thanks👍

Thanks 👍 Glad you think so. I might make a video just about this .

@@Gidjoiner That would be fantastic

Hi, thanks, maybe useful to some but not me so no, I'm not keen on any of the converters or after market battery type things, I've tried a few things in the past & generally it's simply not worth my time & money, more heartache & breakdown when I don't need it, find the extra cash & buy the real deal. I've got a 5ah Dewalt battery for the metal connecting nailer but if I want another small 2Ah battery for the jointer I'll just buy one.. As I was converting all my tools to cordless I was trying to stay on a limited amount of battery platforms but as time went on I found that's not possible, some brands tools are just simply bad, others are good, I've now got multiple batteries & battery chargers, when working it's rare I have more than 2 chargers on the go, I'm often only using a couple of brands of tools & the amount I do I don't use much battery life & will pretty much always have a spare charged battery. So when it did come to getting this Dewalt buying another charger wasn't such a big deal, that's not what this vid is about, I only mentioned that to explain why I bought the Makita in the first place, it's more about the fence design of the Makita, when I did look at buying this I didn't think it would bother me too much but when it came to having it my hands I wasn't happy, maybe I should've researched it further.. either way this was the outcome, I realised I'd made a mistake in buying the wrong tool, Even if I'd bought the Dewalt in the first place though I'd have bought the Dewalt battery+charger & not considered some kind of adaptor, Thanks for your suggestion tho 👍.

Thanks 👍

Thankyou, much appreciated, glad you like it 👍

If you look online the majority have this fixed 90º fence, the Dewalt is an exception & as far as I'm concerned makes it better. So yeah you'd think Makita would pick up on this, maybe it's not so much of a problem, it's not exactly a site tool & like you say it is probably fine for the majority of people. I did do a bit of research before buying as always & I didn't think it would bother me, but getting it in my hands It just felt wrong, I'm used to being able to set & keep the depth, do plunge cuts etc. without having to take it apart & I know I'll eventually loose that fence 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️😂

Thankyou, very much appreciated 👍 This was a getting back to work type job & we'll have to see how this yr goes as far as work & filming goes but in a short time it'll get back to being something like normal, I've got to make a living so as I work I'll keep on filming & uploading 👍👍 I've got more clips from 2022 to edit & upload 👍

@@Gidjoiner I look forward to keeping up with everything you do!

That's what I'm thinking, I didn't think the fence thing would bother me too much but when I got it in my hands I realised quite quickly I'd made a mistake, the fence will get thrown in my bag or somewhere so it doesn't get lost, it'll get swept up & binned or I'll simply leave it somewhere, & yeah it just doesn't feel right 🤷‍♂️😒 Yeah that's what I did when I went on site, the amount of times I use it there I just took the corded, it's those few times when it's easier just to throw the cordless in & know when you get there you don't have to find a plug socket 😉 Maybe when it comes to it have a look at the price of corded vs cordless, you might change your mind,

Thankyou, kind words, much appreciated 👍 This was a getting back to work type job, I've got more clips from 2022 to edit & upload, We'll have to see how this yr goes as far as work & filming goes but it'll get back to being something like normal, I've got to make a living so as I work I'll keep on filming & uploading 👍👍

The Elu was similar to the Lamello if I remember correctly, it worked a bit like an angle grinder plunge saw type thing? or maybe there was a later version?

To me the Dewalt biscuit jointer is identical to my elu biscuit jointer.

Elu were taken over by Dewalt, the chopsaw is the same also just yellow instead of grey. This is what I was thinking, we called it a lamello machine but maybe it was an Elu 🤷‍♂️ www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fncwoodworker.net%2Fforums%2Findex.php%3Fthreads%2Fdo-you-use-a-biscuit-joiner-and-if-so-for-what.69323%2F&psig=AOvVaw2-6lP5tl-9iX1kocp40cVJ&ust=1718783009082000&source=images&cd=vfe&opi=89978449&ved=0CBEQjRxqFwoTCNCLv-rT5IYDFQAAAAAdAAAAABAE

Thankyou, much appreciated 👍Yr's ago when watching other's vids I realised how little info there was being shared (after skipping through the pointless intro & irrelevant waffle at the start of their vids) & how in the very little they actually showed in the 10min video suddenly they'd built this thing 🤔🤷‍♂️., So when I came to making my own videos I decided to keep them simple & to the point with as many of the steps in the creation as i could, that's how I like & am going to keep them 😊

Thankyou Bob, very much appreciated 👍 I will, feeling better each day 😊 Yeah this is the type of part that will get thrown in my bag, in the flexi tub that i use for packers so I don't loose it or simply get left on someone's table. either way when it comes to it I'll prob have to spend time finding it 😒 Look after yourself too 👍

Yep, I wonder if they ever get or read the feedback from users, a lot of these tools haven't changed in many yrs, why not look at other's designs & consider making similar. It's the basic cock-ups that get me, like the Hikoki router.. why on earth put the locking lever on the same side as the trigger, my 110v Makita router is donkeys yrs old, the lever is on the other side, the free hand side, it's not hard to realise when using it why it's like that.. I simply don't think they have staff that have any real world experience with these tools, they check they work but have little knowledge of how to use them so improvements are impossible.

@@Gidjoiner Exactly Gid, even the design of the plunge lock handle looks wrong. I have a Bosch 12v collated screw gun, it's an ideal tool for working over your head. But what's the one thing it's missing...a belt hook! I mean come on, 🙄. Vacuum hoses crack me up as well, those ribs always get snagged on things. Festool hoses are smooth for a reason. I have a Makita 4" belt sander which is a great tool but the way the cord comes out the back of the tool guarantees that it gets snagged. As I said earlier, I'm well on my way to becoming a grumpy old bastard! 😆

I think I'm already there being a grumpy old bastad. That little cordless Makita chopsaw I was using, the Makita vac hose rubber end doesn't fit in the dust port, you can just squeeze the tip in & it kept falling out, I had to vac the shelves behind more than once 😂🤦‍♂️ reminds me I've got to buy an adaptor 👍

​@Gidjoiner Makita basically don't care about user opinion outside of the Japanese Market. Talk to their reps in the UK and they just aren't interested. That said I use mostly makita gear because it's always been reliable and some of it is still made in the UK. They have a base in Milton Keynes and manufacturing in Telford and I like that about companies. All that said they're miles behind in terms of innovation.

@@Gidjoiner 😄😄 I have the same mitre saw, it's nice and light but it's a pity the head doesn't bevel to the right. I have a small Makita vacuum which came with an adaptor that fits that particular saw. But again I have a good few tools with a few different size dust ports. I need to pick up a few different size adaptors. Why not make all portable power tool dust outlets the same size, simple fix, I also have a big Fein vacuum which I usually have under my big DeWalt 12" mitre saw. That vacuum fits some of my tools but not others and vice versa for the smaller Makita vacuum. I have a few Festool tools and they are designed by someone who has time done out in the field. To get full value out of them I think one needs to buy into their system. That Bluetooth on/off switch they have on the end of their vac hoses is the balls!

Time is def money, there's also that little extra bit of frustration that comes with the performance, if I've got to feck around with this fence or even just put the effort in to finding it if it's been put away somewhere then.......

It's not too bad, I've more than 5 chargers but the amount I use there's either a spare charged one or I'm just using the Bosch - Makita, Hikoki - Makita...., it's rare I have to get more than 3 chargers going. & sods law says if I'm using 2 or 3 I'll need them all charging their own brand so an adaptor wouldn't be much help.

I'm guessing I won't be getting Makita sponsorship offered 🤔😂

Thankyou, very much appreciated 👍😊

Thankyou, much appreciated 👍 yep I was going to upload Pt1 then go to bed but I stayed up late & got Pt2 edited, I hate having to wait for Pt2,, I hope you have a good day 😊

Thankyou, very much appreciated, I'm glad you liked it & you're more than welcome 👍😊

'poncy clinical filming workshop' 😂😂 Spot on, I don't watch too many vids anymore, too much jig making in shiny workshops 🤦‍♂️ glad you understand that I go in there to work not play 👍 Yeah I had the older version, it got bent & I replaced it 5 or so yrs ago with this, so easy to set up 👍 Those hinges came from a box in my shed, I've got loads & one of them on my desk in front of me, with my glasses on the gap between the two plates is just a fraction more than 1mm, my fault I should've looked closer & prob why they never got used in the first place. Doh!🤦‍♂️🙃😂 Thanks 👍
