  • all is good and smart invented, but only problem is , on rough underground and when its starts to rain

  • One advantage of having a contiguous fence is for cutting crown molding... 

  • I'm hearing some of your comments and I've looked at the bench and your miter stand, then I hear a guy talk about thinking he was organized till he saw you truck? Thanks for posting your work!

  • This stuff is nothing short of incredible! I am an innovator at my work, so I totally understand your logic, and your need for improved function. It also looks attractive! Very well done.

  • @xizdaqrian

    As carpenters, we spend more time with our tools than the projects we complete. I want to enjoy using my tools. When I see a carpenter show up with a pile of rusty, nasty looking tools, I instantly think that this guy doesn't care. Clients think the same way.

  • I am not sure if being organized and neat is a blessing or curse:) When I am building a house, I like it organized and clean from day one. I even make sure the dirt piles are placed properly. When the subs show up, they know their day isn't over until their mess is swept up and materials are stacked.

  • @crpaulk Thanks for all the great videos! I have learned a lot. Looking forward to watching some more. :-) Best wishes from germany.

  • @kzuraw

    Thanks, I am glad Youtube makes this all possible.

  • I just spent a couple of hours watching your u-tube videos ( re: your work bench, miter stand and your truck.) I thought I was organized until I saw your truck. I have been at it since 1971 so I can see when someone knows his trade.

    Really nice work, Bruce ABH Stair & Millwork Company

  • Send email to crpaulk@msn.com with UWB Plans in subject line.

    TKS,

    Ron

  • Brilliant! Where can I purchase plans?

  • I don't watch TV or Sleep:)

  • Just wanted to say very nice work and congratulations on your daughters wedding. I only have one question after building all these exellent benches, stands etc. when do you find time to get any work done;)

  • Handy Stanley, the miter stand and work bench are adjustable to brands other than FT. I use FT so the conversation to alternates will be up to you. My Work Bench was set up for DeWalt, but I understand others have modified for Bosch. The miter stand as I recommend in the plans is best finalized with saw in place even if FT.

  • I first saw your designs from another contractor's YouTube video. Understandably you designed it for the Festool products. As a homeowner / DIY'er / woodworker I cannot justify the price for those tools. Can I adapt your plans to accommodate Irwin clamps and my Bosch 12" dual compound miter saw. My table saw is a Rigid r4510. Speaking of table saw - is you UWB flush or below the table saw?

    I like your design because I also have to share the garage with everyone else in the family.

  • Looks great Ron, you must be pleased with the result and also the satisfaction of applying an idea and then creating it.

  • You daughter just got married? Well, congrats to you all. I guess you didn't lose a daughter, so much as gained a bathroom?

    Cheers.

  • Your equipment and designs are incredible!!!!

  • kan je het bouwplan doorsturen?

  • This is what happens when a brain surgeon decides he wants to be a carpenter instead.

  • I have been kept from competing them, by too much work and my beautiful daughter getting married last Saturday. I should have more time now. I will post asap.

    Thanks for keeping me motivated and focused.

    Ron

  • when will you have the plans for the mitre table?

    Really clever

    Cheers

  • I was like, whats up with those weird saw horses? - Awesome to have all your stock right there! If you have high end clients tools like these are worth it.

    

  • Too bulky... not worth the hassle. 25 year finish carpenter. You would need a crew of guys just to carry it in. I have enough crap to carry in every morning. Invent a single tool that does everything I need to do in a day, and I'd be on board with that.

  • @yacrafter

    Yacrafter,

    I have a tool that does everything, but I didn't invent it. It is called a cell phone:)

    Ron

  • Do you think that stop is going to hold up over time, as it's plywood being drilled out and then tightened, and loosened, and tightened again.? I like the miterstand a lot.

  • Maybe make another video showing the saw horses only and how the stand mounts to them. I really think you did a great job here. I am about to build my own mitersaw bench very soon. I just picked up the kapex last week. I need a new stand asap.

  • I don't have a scale, but the UMS is roughly 1/2 sheet of 1/2" plywood. I lift them solo without straining, They are large, but much of the wood is strategically cut away.

  • Ron-

    Great design. How much do the UMS and UMS weigh roughly?

  • Awesome design. The sawhorses really do seem to solve the problem of back-and-forth to the stockpile. Really need to make me some.

    Great video too.

  • I am working on "as built" drawings for both the UWB & UMS. I modified the designs about 20% during construction, plus I have some changes to improve my current design. I will figure out a way to make detailed plans available once complete.

  • Nicely thought out. I can reverse engineer it, but would rather work from plans. Have you posted your Sketchup file anywhere?

  • Very innovative! It solves a lot of problems. I really like the storage racks below.

  • Where are the plans? Are you selling these only?

  • I like it.
