  • This week on Tool Time Tuesday we're having a look at one of my most regularly used tools in the knife shop. My Foredom. Remember that Foredom has offered one of these as a giveaway to celebrate 100K subscribers on this channel. Have a look at this video and see why I love this tool so much!
    Full disclosure: Foredom has not paid me anything and does not sponsor this channel or this video in any way. They have simply donated a Foredom for me to give away after I had asked for it.

    About Simple Little Life:
    This channel has sort of turned (inadvertently) into a knife making channel. But the original idea behind what we wanted it to be is this description below:
    Videos on our journey to homesteading. With a recent purchase of a little piece of the Alberta prairie, we're looking to sell our nice suburban home in search of a more meaningful life beyond chasing the "American dream" working for some big company and making someone else rich. It's not about the money, it's about getting the most value from the work I do to improving the life of my family.
    Some preparedness, DIY, building quality things with your hands, guns, gear, and outdoor exploration.

    Foredom tip:
    Glue a little Neo Magnet (or 3) on the 1/2" wrench, you can use it to get the collets out (I can't be the only one who can't get ahold of em) and it keeps the wrench/chain/pin in/on something where you can find it. There's nothing worse than needing to change burrs and finding the key under the sandpaper after wasting half an hour....

    Jeremy this has become my favorite channel lately u are a one of a kind craftsmen and what i LOVE about your channel its not always about u...U are SO HUMBLE and CONSIDERATE u always try to elevate your fellow man and praise them for trying to make a knife... YOUR A ONE OF A KIND guy just wanted to say THANKS for all your HARD WORK and making this channel a pleasure to watch...If everyone was like u this world would be a better place....Thanks again Jeremy

      I believe that a bad person might be able to hide how much evil is in their life for a while. Jeremy exhibits how a decent dude just oozes goodness. How can you not like this guy? Also, how do folks think that sending him their phone numbers, etc. is going to make a difference in the drawing? Or do people just really suck that badly at directions? Perhaps both. It is to laugh.

    Very cool review Jeremy! I have been following you for a while now and have really come to enjoy your videos. Thanks for the info on some of the bits!

  • @colin8532
    @colin8532 Před 6 lety

    This is just too funny. I found your channel yesterday, and have been hooked. I watched this video and it reminded me that I was given a bench top rotary tool like this about a year ago. I hadn't had a chance to use it yet, and had just put it away. Turns out it is a Foredom series SB! I'll take that as a sign that I should follow my interest in this as a hobby. Love your videos by the way, you have an EXCELLENT channel here. Needless to say, I have already subbed! Take care, Colin

  • @richardbohlingsr3490
    @richardbohlingsr3490 Před 6 lety +1

    Jeremy, consider mounting the handpiece upside down, just like a drill press. That way the dust will not clog the chuck and you can raise or lower the bit so you get to use the whole bit face.. Congratulations on the 100k subs.

  • @MrJohn714
    @MrJohn714 Před 6 lety

    Good info, I have a couple Fordoms both pedestal mounted and one of the handiest tools I made is a little disc sander/polisher. Its just a 1.25 inch heavy leather disc mounted on a mandrel used to back a piece of sandpaper. No need to glue the paper, the mandrel screw holds everything securely and when you use 600grt paper its great for polishing and blending.

  • @joshuagepner4832

    As a new knife maker the Foredom looks like an excellent tool to have in any knife makers repertoire

  • @walte99
    @walte99 Před 6 lety

    Great video! I gotta get one of those...it just moved up my wish list. I have a Dremel which I rarely use because it is so hard to control. When I do an Anso texture handle with the Dremel, with the stress that causes, I need a good stiff drink afterwards!

  • @thebmac
    @thebmac Před 6 lety

    When you're off work injured, videos like these really help you to remember what day of the week it is :P ohh yeah... it's tuesday. Those typhoon type bits are crazy. There are some really wicked/mean looking ones out there but may need more of a die grinder to run them. Keep up the great vids Jer.

    Good vid. Do u know if the only way 2 control the speed is with a foot pedal or does Foredom make a handle with an onboard controller ?

    • @clivemilner
      @clivemilner Před 2 lety

      Foredom make an desk speed control. You set the speed and adjust the speed.

      The video "Fixing the Dixie Cutter" has the music I'm referring to. Maybe I'm just noticing the change and it's been awhile.
