Real woodworkers are not afraid of plywood. So I use a lot of it. And, I'm cheap...really cheap. So I love making jigs that make things easier, faster, and may even replace expensive store-bought items or services. No fancy tools allowed. My tools are either less than high-end, bought used, or bought at the local home center. No fancy tools allowed......

This is a more in depth look at my DIY Air Cleaner / Dust Filter. The original videos are pretty old, but I've been getting a lot a questions on filter choice, filter numbers, and fan choice. I answer all that and show how well, or poorly, the unit works. And I address nasty commenters.

Music for a Milestone

Hey guys, last time I did a music video, it was for 6,000 subscribers. Now that I've hit 25,000, it's time for another one. This is not meant for torture (many of you may not like my musical taste) but for enjoyment. Many of you know that I gave up on music in my woodworking videos due to all the complaints. This is my chance to make up for it. As is all of my music, this is an original composi...

Very nice work and instructional video. Turned out great
looks good, enjoyed the video.
4 filters? Does that hinder air flow?
I love it bc my truck is wooden flate bed and I wanted idea to finsh my project thank to you I want to do it like your .thank you now I can finsh my project.my truck is 150 dodge ram 1500..
Thanks for reminding me I am a kool kid!😊 great design and I subscribed 😉
Very nice work, I thought about doing mine in artificial wood decking to save me the trouble of finishing it, how hard was it to go from the stock harness to the separate lights?
Well, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, and it took me about an hour. Just get a test light and a good ground.
Beautiful. Looks great. Thanks for the video. It would look great running on these thar hills of west Virginia. Lol . And let me set one thing straight we don't sleep with our sisters.😂
Thank you for posting this video! I just bought a 2004 F-250 with a bed that's been to hell and back. It needs to go. I was looking for options when I found your channel. I think I'll give this a try (or a version of this at least.) Well done. Subscribed.
You'll notice I haven't posted in a while. I retired and moved, and am in the process of building a new shop. More videos in store!
did something similar to this for a old ranger I had. the center two floor/bed boards tho I put on hinges and didnt bolt them down but used a groove sorta like cabinets so they could sit flush. this way if I ever needed to get at the fuel pump I'd never have to drop the tank. after doing two fuel pumps on my other trucks, I will never ever drop a tank every again. so i wanted to be able to just flip open a small section of my bed and easily reach the fuel pump.
Ya couda changed the oil 8n the truck or dust crush up some charcoal in the mix
Sweet!
I realise this is an older video, but it might help if you cut a slot in the clamping piece. that way you can slide it on from the side and you don't have to remove the wing nut anymore since the rings can pass over it.
Great idea!
How is this holding up?
Well, to be honest, I had to rebuild it using pressure treated wood. But other than that, no complaints. I also added "fender" cutouts when I put bigger tires on it.
Nice to see a woodworker build a flat bed. So many folks have no woodworking skills.
Also I just watched again. The pink color would be less if you use off road diesel. It is clear. Use it in my tractor.
Very cool restoration
a piece of angle-aluminum would improve the rigidity a lot.
Sir. I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im sendin you love❤ that is sooo awesome. I very respectfully wish to do the same.
How is the bed holding up after 4 years?
I think I'm going to copy this design, fantastic job man.
Were the floor boards just screwed into the wood frame? Flat bedding my 02 ranger.
Yes, just screwed in. But I would suggest using washers with the screws.
I will be atempting this this summer. Thank you for the tutorial!!
Outstanding! Great tunes too ... thanks for sharing!
Awesome job!!!
Awesome job!!!
Awesome job!!!
Problem with this that's it already coast like a commercial samples
Chiming in from camp thumb cut due to Japanese pull saw. That thing is unforgiving. Opened me right up.
You got that right!
You should have squared the fence with the blade not table.
Tre-wax for me, appears to be more durable than Johnson’s. I think Tre-Wax dries with a harder finish. I’ve used it since 1962, trying many alternatives throughout the years.
VERY NICE
My goal has always been to get folks to think, even if it means folks figure out a way to make my designs better. Success! And let me know how it works out.
💪🏆 🌈
Why not use 1/2 inch on just the back piece. The back piece only runs against the runner. That way the side where you cut can still be the 1/4. That back piece is even the bigger of the 2.
Did your fuel nozzle cap area end up too low for fall into the tank? How did you support it under the bed?
I just bought a Chevy Colorado that I need to build a bed on your very informative
I looked through your videos and did not see how you made your baffle. I'll keep looking, but if you see this and feel like pushing me in the right direction it would be appreciated.
It's called a "thien baffle." I didn't do a video because others on CZcams have already posted builds. The videos I used as a guide were "Thien Baffle Top Hat Dust Separator" by ghostses. It's a five part series (really long but super detailed). I think I used his plans exactly, the variation may have been accounting for the size of my dust bin. Don't make the same mistake as others - make sure your dust bin is rigid. A plastic Rubbermaid trash can will collapse under the suction. I used a 55 gal drum, but I think any metal trash can will work. Although the build was tedious, it was very fun and the results are awesome. Good luck.
Man this looks great
Just use Evaporust to remove the rust. No rubbing. Then get it copper plated then Nickel electroplated. It will never rust again.
Where did you find those tail lights?
Very helpful video. Thanks.
Johnson’s Paste waxx is now >$140 a can.
Came out beautiful
Someone (me) got drunk and kicked a fat dent in the side of my truck ive always wanted a flatbed and figured id look it up see what other people did this looks great and is exactly what i want to do with mine
What a great design! I'm going to tweak it a bit for my lathe, but definitely will be building one of these. Thanks!
anyone in MD DC area want to build one on my F350?
You have inspired me to build somthing like this for my C 600 :)
A piece of cardboard works to keep rust off machines too. I think it stop the moisture in the air.
I would have left the sides off. Now your elbows will hit it.
GREAT JIG! I drilled 1/8" holes 1/2' deep, cut pins 1" long. Rubber bands roll off the pins and center on 1" thick rings!
Real late to the party, what depth did you cut to?
