there's a swimming pool in the back of
my
truck hey I think this week I could work
outside it's been raining pretty much
the entire month of January but you know
of course we need the rain here in
California I think I have a window of
opportunity now you know this would be a
lot easier if my compressor was working
and I could use a nail gun you know what
I think I'll go get one tomorrow morning

okay this has been sitting here for 3
days now right where I left it so I did
like zero research on these and I just
went to my local hardware store and
picked up the only one they had it looks
a lot like my old compressor only this
one doesn't have wheels on it so I think
it might be a little smaller so you can
see this is a Craftsman 3gal air
compressor 135
PSI well there's the
handle ooh it's all shiny and red silica
gel do not eat lubricating oil so this
is the oil filter here kind of looks
like one that would go in your
car and here's where the oil goes the
first thing I notice about this is that
it really doesn't come with any
accessories all you get is the hose and
one of these things to fill up the tires
on your car and I guess you could just
screw that on to the end of the hose
which is a little bit weird if you want
to attach any tools to it you have to
get a separate connector that doesn't
come with it that seems a little odd
these are some of the attachments from
my old compressor and I have an extra
one of these that should fit on there
all right I think I'm ready to fire it
up I'll test it out with that little air
blower okay that's what I was waiting
for so it stopped
AT3 PSI and then you can adjust the
pressure with this red knob here
so here you can see the two different
dials this one is labeled tool this one
is tank they both have the exact same
reading so I'm not exactly sure how I
would use those or what that's supposed
to tell me maybe one of you can help me
out with that another thing I don't like
about it is the way it moves around
maybe it won't move around so much when
I set it on the floor it's also a lot
lighter than my old
compressor I'm going to have to chase it
down I think it's going to work out for
you know for what I use it for I don't
use use it every single day I'll keep
you posted on this if I run into any
problems with it something doesn't work
right I I'll let you know by far the
most common question and comment I got
on this week's video had to do with my
comment during the video about not being
able to use dat blades in Europe I'm not
sure what all the laws are in Europe
regarding datto blades but I do know
that they're very difficult to obtain
and use some people have told me that
they're illegal to use in most places in
Europe other people have told me well
that's not exactly true I think the way
it is is that Europe discourages the use
of dat blades and so you can't buy a
table saw with a long Arbor to hold a
stack of data blades they only come with
short Arbors to screw on a single blade
and I'm sure professional shops must get
some sort of permission to use dat
blades I don't know the hardest part for
me to understand is really why because
in my estimation data blades are
actually a little bit safer to use than
a single blade because a single blade is
always going to be cutting all the way
through a board it's going to be raised
up higher more possibility to cut your
finger whereas dado blades usually cut
very shallow grooves and don't come up
above the wood so there's little chance
of Kickback and there's little chance
that you're going to cut your finger I'm
no expert on this if somebody is and
wants to leave a comment down below and
help us out that'd be great if you don't
have data blades the alternative is to
use a router table you would just use a
straight router bit like this and just
make several passes whatever width you
need for me setting it up and cutting
grooves that way takes longer than using
the doo stack and of course you could
use your regular table saw blade to make
grooves too just by moving this fence
over after each pass it's a little more
timec consuming but it's certainly
doable how much weight will those drawer
slides hold those particular ones are
rated at 100 lb my guess is they could
actually hold more than that but that's
what they recommend another thing is
drawer slides come with a maximum width
of the drawer that they're rated for in
this case the drawer was rated at 24 in
or smaller my drawer is actually 25 in
so I'm living on the edge Ben had a good
suggestion to put some sort of a divider
in the center of the drawer which would
prevent you from putting cleaning
supplies and Bottles there which would
get hit by the drain trap as you slide
the drawer in how old is Princess meow
meow she's almost 12 years old Hugo
wants to know if I've ever shaved with a
Harry's razor on a Casper mattress while
listening to an audible book of course
all the time but usually I include my
gripper from micro jig
