    I am so glad I stumbled upon this post. I cried the day they stopped making "Shop Notes". Two of my favorite projects and ones I use every day in my weekend warrior shop are, issue 113 the folding router table (which I have made and refined many times) and issue 74 the extendable drill press table. What they call Shop Notes now is a shadow of its former self. Izzy you have gained a loyal follower.

    That last jig is something I've been mulling over for a while. It's good to see one built and demonstrated, especially when it is used in ways other than what I'd had in mind and ends up solving other problems.
    I always appreciate the down to earth nature of the videos on this channel, and great to see that link to shop notes and the credit to them. It helps noobs like me cut through the hype channels and get to working better.

    Yes! Shop Notes is/was a great resource for info and inspiration. And maybe you can create a jig you call a ding-a-ling. So you can ask your wife "where's my .....?

      Having an E-reader with all the episodes of shopnotes would be like having an indexed version almost. I don’t have one so it’s a complete assumption, but they must have a search function plus as a magazine that has an index(table of contents)in the beginning of each episode

    I love communities wherein everyone shares invaluable info that benefits us all.
    Sharing info helps to uplift us all. Secretive stuff just benefits the OP and the majority of us are left in the dark.
    Openly sharing creates a society that is constantly floating upward instead of spiraling downward.
    Bravo for open sharing and I hope it continues and infects everyone else with the sharing bug.
    Openness is just so beneficial for the world. It uplifts everyone!!!
    Thanks again! 😊

    Not a typical "jig and fixture" video... but for the pattern follower and the expanding fixture, IMO. But, all except for the pattern jig are EXCELLENT ideas for people less mobile!! I watched a friend work in the shop from a chair, and these "extra hand" jigs would've been excellent for him! I'll end up building all but the clamp jig, as I end up doing a lot of large boxes and drawers. Very cool video!

    Shopnotes is a great magazine! I love the issue where they built an adjustable box joint jig, I just got to find my copy so I can build the thing. Years ago, I worked in a cabinet shop, and the boss made copies of the jigs and fixtures page from Woodsmith so that we could reference it if we ran into problems building something. It was a great reference.

    Just a couple of things: 1) I really like your "Thingy" (🤣) and plan on making one of my own. However, I'm going to add a few magnets inset into the ends to grab the saw and hold it against the wood. I saw someone else do this with a similar edge guide and thought it was a really good idea. 2) Where's the link to Shopnotes? I mean, I went to the website but, all I could find was subscriptions for either $20/year or several back issue offers, all of which were $99 and none digitally online - the issues were digital but, all came on a USB thumb drive and some packages came with a DVD. I didn't see anything about an $80 online subscription for back issues. Just a little confused and looking for clarification. LOVE your videos, btw! Also, I'm glad to see that Maggie(sp?) has finally gotten over her camera shyness.😁

Mine is an older Delta Lathe with separate motor and belts. I have had it since 1995, since my uncle passed. It has never been fully set up to turn anything.
