It’s always a good day when Mike Farrington releases a new!
The dry dad humor is why Im here!
Ha! Thank you.
Wow, I'm an extremely experienced woodworker and almost never find any tips in youtube videos that are both A. Helpful and B. I didn't already know. This video had several tips that met both criteria! Nice!
I take that as a very high compliment.
I think the only thing I don't like about the experience/ knowledge I've gained over the years is that there are fewer and fewer books/ videos with information I haven't already come across or practiced- Mike always seems to deliver though!
@@mark_leonardjackson Thank you. Just trying to spread the craft.
Dear sir. Your showing all of my classic old school tools. They are all still in fine shape and perform well. My Unisaw is a 1992 and all of my other Delta equipment is USA made. 🇺🇸 Treat your equipment well and keep it clean and properly lubricated and it will last forever with only basic wear parts needing replacement. Thank you for your service to the community.
Thank you very much.
Thanks Mike. I've been doing this stuff for going on 40 years, and it is always nice to get info from someone who knows more than I do 🙂
Thank you very much.
I love the way your son came in to show you his project. It shows that you care about what he thinks. It shows that you care a bout what he thinks.
Thank you.
Thanks Mike. This video was both educational and not vomitous.
Thank you.
Your theory on the wobble dado is humorous. Though I have a book from 1911 'The A.B.C. of woodworking' by Charles G. Wheeler. It actually suggests cutting your own wedges to create a wobble dado blade. The commercial version would likely be actually safer than a shop made wedge which may explode and frankly looks like a terrifying idea even as an illustration in a book.
I should give that a try and do a video on it. Of course I'll be wearing a helmet and armor.
At first i thought how are you going to make a video about Table saw blades. But then...WOW. Very cool. This was a great video. Thanks Mike
Glad you liked it!
LOL. At the beginning: Stupid because it's not sharp! LOL. I don't know why, but that had me cracking up. But I had no idea some of these blades existed!
Ha! Thank you.
Not vomitous, Mike. Seriously, this is THE best tip/product content I've seen in 4 years for table saws - you honestly didn't recycle anything from the eleventy-million other videos out there. I'm going to tag this with 'watch later' for both tips and products... the information packed in here is so dense, it warps spacetime. Also, flat bottom grooves... they make the rockin' world go round.
Question: why do you stamp your name in your blades?
Thank you very much. I'm trying to stay original, its not easy. I don't do the stamping, thats the sharpener doing that.
Very interesting and, as you said, more advanced than most CZcams tool discussions. And your tips are really useful. Thank you.
Thank you very much.
As you may have noticed from the flurry of comments from me spanning videos from your entire body of work, I am a new subscriber who has done nothing but binge watch Mike Farrington videos this entire weekend. I'm now reduced to waiting for new releases. But nonetheless, I celebrate your entire catalogue.
Ha! Thank you, and love the Office Space reference. Well done.
It always surprises me how many things can be done with/ on the table saw. The table saw is still one of those tools that intimidate me. No matter how many times I use one.
The table saw can do a ton, that is for sure.
I so love your commentary, especially the wobble blade LOL
Ha! Thank you.
The 7 1/4” blade in a table saw is genius. Never would have thought to do it.
Its a great trick that is super cheap.
I have a 1/4" HP power feeder attached to my table saw via four Magswitches. Best tool investment I've made. Only once have I had an issue ripping without a riving knife. No kick back with the power feeder but I did burn hard maple when the power feeder couldn't push the piece when the maple bound together at the end, so I stuck a shim in the end of the piece and continued on.
My rips are very consistent by not needing to stop in the middle of a long rip to adjust my hands, which often leaves a mark on the edge. By keeping your hands away from the blade using a power feeder adds huge level of safety, IMO. Also way less fatiguing when ripping many pieces. I would have gotten a 1/2 HP feeder for more power for long 8/4 material, but I'd need more powerful Magswitches (already have over 2600 hold down pounds) and it would be too heavy to move.
I have shown similar results in a couple other videos. A table saw and powerfeeder are like shoes and socks. Also, try an 18 tooth blade when dealing with maple, burning will be greatly reduced.
@@MikeFarrington Yes! I just bought the 18 tooth blade you recommended. It's a beast.
Excellent video. As a non-pro getting the benefit of your experience is a big plus.
Thank you very much.
Would love to see a shaper/router edition of this kind of video. I think it would be interesting to hear your thoughts.
Thank you. That is a neat idea. Let me give it some thought.
Nice to see the Modulus 2000, I still have one, keeping it as a backup to a slider.
Thats pretty much why I picked up this one. Plus it was a nice throw back to the old days.
My dad used the cheaper/older version of the table saw molder all the time. He would even grind his own custom shapes. But they can be dangerous. He was doing a custom shape and went to lunch. His shop helper decided to "help" and finish up some of the molding he was making. It did not end well. Reconstructive hand surgery and months of healing was the result. Thanks for the informative video.
Table saws are powerful tools, they can get a lot of work done, but they sure can cause a lot of damage when things go wrong.
Wow. A video so informative that it makes up for much of the time wasted watching boring and less-than-useful YT videos. Thanks!
Thank you very much.
A top 10 all time CZcams video. I commend you.
Thank you very much.
I live like 10 min from Ballew's location. I'll have to swing by there and take a look at that magic molder. It looks like a fantastic addition.
I have bought a good amount of stuff from them. I'm glade I don't live close.
@@MikeFarrington I also live 3 minutes from Grizzly's location... It's a dangerous place to be a woodworker lol.
If we had a Rockler and Woodcraft, I'd never have any money left
@@robbie6625 Ha! Too true.
TMI in a good way M. I'll have to watch this one a couple times. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you.
Glad to see the 7 1/4 blade. I was looking at prices to get my 10 inch blades sharpened and realized I could by a 7 1/4 for less. For someone who works with sheet goods a lot it's a great option.
They work surprisingly well on a table saw.
I am a semi-retired flooring installer, and while I still look at it with distain, have a healthy respect for my main tool, an 8 1/2" DeWalt jobsite saw. A lot of what I do involves making cuts to wrap around doors, pillars, floor mount HVAC vents, etc. A lot of what I do is freehand...no miter gauge or fence...because many cuts are out of square or just plain weird. I advised my boss that 7 1/4" blades could be had for half the price of the 8 1/2" blades, because of the specialty size. They will also flex a little, which is desirable in my case for making long wavy rip cuts to match a wall. A 40 tooth 7 1/4" blade cuts as nicely as a 10" 60 tooth does...if you consider the math ((C=πr squared).
Warning: I am a trained professional. Don't try this at home😉
@@woodrowsmith3400 Ive watched the flooring guys do exactly what you are describing. As long as you're careful its not too bad.
Hi Mike it was nice to see you the other day at Lowes.
Yeah, for sure. Always fun to chat. Thank you for your comment.
Scored a genuine ‘lol’ with the CMT abbreviation explaination
Ha! Thank you.
I love Mike Farrington
Ha! Thank you.
I have used, only once, a wobble blade in a drill-driven circular saw. It worked but I felt a little ill at ease using it.
I was only abut 20 and it was cheap option for grooving.
I bought a Stanley combination plane soon after.
Sounds like the proper upgrade.
Man I've been watching your videos for eons and I only just realised that the double taper sanding disc is your own product. That's super cool!
Thank you. Yup, its something I've been selling quietly for a little while.
@@MikeFarrington Well, maybe you should consider selling it a little more "loudly". 🙂 Love your stuff.
Hey man, been watching you for years. Glad to see you're doing well, love your work.
Awesome, thank you!
Had to drop a subscribe and comment when I saw your name! My grandfather Jack Farrington was a cabinetmaker in Ireland from the 1950s and I’ve just recently picked up the hobby myself.
Thank you. Welcome aboard. Always neat to hear of other Farringtons.
That was super helpful! Found myself stopping the vid several times to Google items.
Cool. That is great to hear.
I needed this today! Thanks for the always stellar content Mike!
Thank you.
Never seen the molding heads in a table saw before - very cool. Also, disappointed that you didn't demonstrate the scoring blade setup, even though i think we all get how it works.
Thank you. I forgot to mention that I will show it in action with the Unisaw restoration video.
Always enjoy learning from you Mike!
Thank you.
really enjoy your work and presentations. Please keep them coming.
Thank you. Will do.
Great video Mike, thanks! While you don’t say it directly, this video makes a great case for a two cabinet saw wood shop. You don’t know anyone who is refurbishing an old one do you? 😏
Ha! Thanks Mark. I'll have two cabinets saws up and running soon enough.
Always good tips! Much appreciated.
Happy to help!
Your timing is impeccable, I was just purchasing some new blades this week. I'm going to add the Double Taper sanding disc. Thanks for your content, it is always entertaining and informative.
Thank you very much.
Loving the T-shirt MCLovin
Saw that one and had to have it.
I’m always learning from you Ole Wise One !!! Thanks Ya.
Glad to hear it.
This is a great video! Thanks for sharing all the great tips!
Thank you.
So much info packed into a very entertaining twenty minutes... ...and the hope of a video covering the restoration of the saw (which have been some of my favourites over the years). Thank you!
Thank you. Yes, I am videoing the saw build.
The Delta moulder head is definetly illegal to use in the EU when hand feeding, any cutter for hand feeding needs to have a chip limiter to 1.1mm.
But tools like that are still used in automatic tenoners, four-sided planers, CnC machines etc. becouse in those applications there is no need for a chip limiter.
Besides that great video, Never seen anything like the Modulus before super interesting!
Thank you. Yeah, the modulus is super neat.
Great video Mike. Didn’t know there were so many different types of saw blades. Very informative.
Glad it was helpful!
I love watching your videos, they are educational, entertaining and abow all make me feel good. Although I am not woodworker I feel that having a knowledge is always good thing. Thank you.
Very interesting, thank you for watching.
Densely packed bar of practical tips. Thank you!
Thank you.
Another excellent video. Thanks for all the great tips for the table saw,
You bet
Great video Mike. Getting a sanding disk for my birthday this month!
Happy B day. I think you’ll like the disc.
I've learned so much from you over the years, Mike. Just want to say thanks.
Thank you for watching.
Thanks Mike always informative and entertaining.
Glad you enjoyed it
I love my 18t rip blade. I've been thinking about the CMT set. And I have a brand new molding in the old Dewalt variant. I can also vouch for the truly sketchy wobble dado. 1986. A Tuesday morning just before break time. Working by myself. I had a serious accident. The wobble definitely adds to the kick back potential, and the more it's maxed out, the worse it gets.
Agreed, when that sucker is at max width, be careful for sure.
@@MikeFarrington some actual safety training would have helped as well 🤣
1989. 3/4" cut. Wobble kicked the workpiece out and left index finger got shredded. 8 1/2 hrs later with a finger/hand specialist and the finger is 98% as good as new. The blade was never mounted in a saw again and hangs at the back of my shop in my sight line to the offcut end of my saw. Every time I turn the saw on, I look up and see that acursed wobble blade. I slow down. Take a breath. Think if how I am approaching the cut is the best and safest way.
Orthopedic bill was $32,000...by the way.
@@woodrowsmith3400 That doesn't sound fun, but thank you for sharing. 32k in todays dollars is probably about 2 billion.
Super educational Mike. I knew a few of these but I learned a lot more! Thanks for all you do!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love this. Never seen like this. Good work.
Thank you.
Can we get more of these Mike they are so helpful and your pro tips are always appreciated cheers mate love your channel
Thank you. I'll try to do more.
Great video!
Looking forward to the rebuild on the Unisaw!
Thank you. The breakdown is complete.
Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
Thanks, you too!
Great video as always. I love my nose pickers right where they are.
You and me both.
Hi Mike, Thanks, that was actually interesting about the blades and your sanding disk.
Thank you very much.
Great video! I use the 7 1/4" Diablo blades in my tablesaw for lots of the reasons you listed, so it made me feel smart 😉
Good stuff.
Great info, Mike. Thanks.
Bill
Thanks for watching!
Very cool stuff, especially the mold cutters.
Also, like your home-made weightlifting equipment in the background at the end! 😆
Ah, you saw that. Yeah, I carry those around the shop for a few minuets at a time.
An interesting and informative video. Nicely done!
Many thanks! 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video I will use as resource forever thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Great Video, thanks Mr. Farrington
Thank you.
Infinity Cutting Tools also makes a 1/4" (smaller diameter) blade. Ive had one for years and it still cuts perfectly square and flat every time. Great video, thanks fot taking the time to put this together!
Good stuff. Thank you for sharing.
Good video. Nice tips.
Thanks for watching!
Very educational!
Thank you.
Hi Mike I’ve been watching your videos for years now and they have always been very helpful you’re doing a great job with sharing your knowledge and have help me in my shop a lot
I know this question ain’t about woodworking but man I love that MC loving t-shirt 😂 so need to get one of those
Best regards from Denmark 🇩🇰
Thank you. I have a link below to the shirt if you need it.
Mike, this video was awesome and very educational. Never knew about some of the blades. I just love your content! I’m going to be like you when I grow up 😅
By the way, nice shirt 😂
Ha! Thank you.
I think im going to have to watch this more than once. Some solid information here✊🏼
Thank you very much. Feel free to ask questions.
Have you thought about using the blue aluminium oxide sand paper for the “mighty double taper sanding disc”? It was an absolute game changing swap out for my double headed drum sander! Seems to take more heat as it doesn’t get any burn lines & lasts way longer.
I can only imagine you did the hard yards to finalise on the one you did
@@scottspropertyservices6877 Interesting. I found the opposite. Though my disc is spinning at a much higher rate of speed. Oddly enough, behind the scenes, I'll be testing some new paper in the next month or so.
Great video, Mike!
I think a big reason that CMT made their box joint blades only 8" diameter is likely for compatibility with with SawStop saws. The dado break cartridge can then be used with it effectively.
Great point!
I ordered the 18 tooth rip. Wow. Big difference compared to the 24 tooth so thank you Mike. I’ve been missing out on cleaner cuts all this time.
That is super great to hear. It's a very good blade if you have that need in your shop.
i have your double taper sanding disc... youve reminded me that i need to get more sandpaper for it since its been sitting on the shelf with burnt paper for too long lol. GREAT tool though... i certainly dont regret buying it. makes quick work of many tasks. also great video... you have a fun collection of blades!
Thank you. Great to hear.
I salute you sir! Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good video. I really liked the magic mike molding head :) . Does look like a terrifying thing to use but I might just try it.
Thank you. You will get used to it pretty quick.
Good stuff!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Now I’m eager for the unisaw restoration video that must be coming.
Yup. I worked on the Unisaw for a couple hours today.
I love the 2hp rubber mallet. Just enough hp but not too much.
Ha! Thank you.
Good stuff as always. Freud also makes the box joint cutter set and works well.
Thank you.
So much great information here! The double blade for cutting tenons is awesome. I need to get some of those magnetic shims, too. It’s more than a chore to get my dado blade off especially with the supplied shims.
A slight smear of Vasoline will hold your shims in place
@@AnthonyStabler that’s a great pro tip!
Thank you. I like the magnetic shims, they are not expensive. Vasoline is a good idea, but not something I would otherwise have in my shop.
Great job Mike ! Thanks for the link to the magic molder,I thought they were gone, I've had mine for years and love it but only have a few inserts.
Yup, they are under new ownership I think. The full catalog of profiles is available.
You call it a saw stop!! Thanks for the knowledge drop :-)
Thats a good one.
I have a wobble dado...never used it, but it was found at an antique store & seemed like an interesting artifact.
Thats what they are best for, just keeping as a talking piece.
Thank you! This is a very interesting and helpful video. Willy
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent, thankyou.
You are welcome!
I have a commercial shop that I run by myself and that would greatly save my back
Its a great addition to any shop that cuts plywood.
Love the CMT box joint blade. Wish I knew about it years ago.
It really seems to be a great set.
Such a brain filling video. Thank you!
Thank you very much.
Certainly not vomitous - thanks so much Mike!
Thank you.
Great video. Thank you.
You are welcome!
Mike@@MikeFarrington are there any RPM restrictions to these specialty blades?
@@briansites8476 These are all designed to work within normal table saw RPM range. So unless you have an odd table saw, you're good to go.
Really wish there were more "flat bottom" jokes: "flat bottomed grooves you make the rockin' world go 'round".
Also, maybe I missed it, but I was looking forward to a music recommendation.
How about Fat Bottomed Girls? That was a miss on my part.
Love this! Love your humor based teaching. You should do a video with Jack forsberg / the wadkin temple!
Thank you. I would do a video with Jack in a heartbeat, he is the man.
Thanks for covering the molders, (insert X-File joke), I'm still looking forward to the unholy wail of my Craftsmen three blade beast.
I like that joke, I fell like that was a miss on my part. They are loud, thats for sure.
@@MikeFarrington ... 90% of the time, I miss, but let's face it, one pun intended.
@@jeffbaker8808 Broken clock is right twice a day.
I used a wobble dado blade for a long time starting back in the 70’s. I may still have it. I have better dado blades now.
The stack dado is such an improvement.
That Shirt is "Super Bad" 😎
Nailed it.
Excellent video. Shame the shop apprentice(s) didn't make an appearance.
Thank you. I cut out all the other stuff cause this video was already long enough.
I learned a lot in this video. Thank you Mike.
Love your channel.
Glad to hear it!
Great video. It was sad news that the Modulus scoring attachment is no longer being made. Mine works like a champ, but I imagine I will be SOL if the belt eventually breaks.
Keep it in good working order for sure.
