let's go round here remember this workbench up here well
in today's exciting episode we build another one I
got the cheapest one I could fly it I got the cheapest one I could find because this
is going to be a prototype bench not the finished bench to replace there the reason
that's up on the walls because it was just not portable enough in order to take to work every
day which is the main reason I built the bench so their bench is on the wall for a reason I'm
going to use it to have overhead shots like the one I just did but a more permanent sit-up
this [ __ ] is going to be a prototype when I finally decide on the design I want Cameron and
I will get together and build another bench and this time we'll do something a bit more
suited to how I should use the bench this is the bench size two meters by about 600 metals
mainsheet supply cut and draw out how I'm gonna build this the other week there I bumped into
a subscriber all the way from the UK you started talking about carpentry as you do
and he's been here six months in New Zealand his name is George so we talk for a bit and then he
messaged me later on and said hey Scot I noticed you don't have any more key gear would you want
to would you be keen to try mine I've got a week off work soon so I won't be using the
tools you're welcome to borrow them so that's why I've got the nail gun the router and that
that little wee combo drill thing so we're yeah thanks George this is the first time using this
stuff so let's see how it goes if you want the extra pens for this I'll link it below it's Ron
pork he designed this workbench I'm just sort of making it up as I go based off his design
one funny thing that George warned me about was this button on the top this is for changing the
drill into forward and reverse and the funny part about it is where its position usually you have a
little button here by the trigger so just with a quick tap of the thumb you can change it to
forward or reverse but this one you have to use your other hand to go up and change the function
now this is the old exciting moment where I get to try the new Milwaukee rapture first
impressions already the depth adjustment compared to the makita you can make a micro
adjustment here's a Makita once you loosen that that's how you do the micro adjustment but it's
a little bit clunky see how much movement there isn't there this one much more solid
and the adjustment is much more gradual for the record I do really like this Mickey router but
that's a great improvement but more Cube made so they make you screw the dusting on
Makita one just clips on you have to screw this one on I don't think I've got the skirts this is
why I use this extraction that wasn't even that much simple the [ __ ] mixed up on the Milwaukee
Adventures of Scott Brown the 16 gauge angle Brenda pins are just gonna hold it there while
glue sets and let the glue do most of the work here using tight bond using tight bond three
first shot of the 16 gauge Milwaukee for me anyway line it up
but more recoil than a music hey it worked well
there's a lot of nails and only one failure I'd
love to be able to blame that on the nail gun but that was my fault
yes sixteen years now I've only awaited this much I'll be the perfect bench
his here's one thing to consider about this nail gun is that the line of sight ISM I do you know
anything like this I don't want to miss the 12 multiplied so I have to line it up like that
good bang on so in order to make sure that I go right in that line
I'm having to reach right over the nail gun other than that this thing's got power
I actually rewrite that's true it's pretty good so the main reason for making this bench smaller
there's portability being able to carry it myself and being able to put it in the van without you
know taking everything out of the van oh yeah so you would want to carry it around all day
but one person can pick it up and move it easily now that's great but when you put a full sheet
on there and you want to split the full sheet in half your sheets probably just going to fall the
other side so I have a little oh dear so if I make something like this that's a bit wider although
she does lock it in like that put a full sheet on and then cut the sheet in half and then these
can come off it's just for breaking down four sheets maybe three of these yeah a bit struck
I never have it they can fit that way so I can still have I miss him here
well the whole reason the whole reason for doing this is because we're doing another firewood
project this time it's a birch ply sealing so prefinished birch ply sealing that's why
I'm making this portable workbench so those are gonna be the next exciting episodes and
look I also got another one of these another Markey protect us from the rain yeah stay
tuned for those exciting episodes they should be good ones and if I haven't already showed
you the end of the kitchen I'll be doing that very soon as well thanks for watching
