This is a great compilation... and one I actually have to pay attention to now ;)

Enjoyed them all and the links to other interesting stuff

I like the drill bit gauges. Lol I never thought to use those before
-
I think moving the rip fence to the miter slot and checking with your fingertip is the best tip.😊
-
Thank you so much for continuing to put these videos together. They are extremely helpful in building skills. Thank you!
-
I think the U Bolt trick is an absolute winner! 👍
-
Rob you are one of the best and I always watch your content as soon as it is released. & of course, there is always new things to learn from. Keep up and wishing you the best.

The one tip I really need is how to keep the fence on my Rigid 3650 straight to the miter slot. I have tried every trick in the book: Locking 2x, pushing the fence towards the table as I lock, changing out the plastic pads for bigger ones... The fence is completely random every time I lock it down. I am thinking of changing the whole fence system out for a Very Super Cool Tools fence, but that is such an endeavor.

Thanks a bunch for all the tips and tricks, Rob! 😃 Great info as always! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Great tips
-
love the tip for adding splines to mitered frames without the use of a jig. very handy. when it comes to tear out, i find that, on pieces where it's important, SLOWING DOWN the blades' movement through the wood just before it exits makes a big difference. it won't eliminate tear out, of course, but the results are a noticable improvement.
