Had to search CZcams for instructions. Am grateful for your video. I'm very impressed with this tooling and Veiko's other tools. Never could buy into the blue plastic crap. Once this jig is unpacked and understood a little box about 15% the volume of the original carton is better for in-a-drawer storage. Thanks again.
Hi Mate
great vid as always. Got mine this week
Great vid Ryan. Thanks for the demo and review. Great bit of kit. Can't wait to get cracking with the wardrobe builds when I move to my new place. Cheers mate, Richard
Hi Richard!
No probs :-)
This jig is up there with the parallel guides and track square I think!
Cheers Ryan
@@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop Totally agree mate
great video what about the corresponding door hinge installation is this easy enough? Another question ref the squares, i have lost my pen, do you have any alternative decent pen recommendations with a 1mm nib ?
It looks like it's firmly placed between the kreg and the blum ecodrill. Try the blum and you won't look back.
Thank you for your review, it was very helpful. It seems well made. I was hoping it would also have a way to drill the holes for the mounting plates on the cabinets - then it would do everything. It still seems like a nice jig though.
@tbc210 Bought one of these recently and mine does have holes at 32mm spacing for the mounting plate. Updated version i believe.
Love the enthusiasm combined with professional insight in your videos! I've become a firm fan :)
one question - how do you go about aligning the holes/brackets that the hinge attaches to on the carcass?
That's amazing to hear thank you!!!
If you watch my other hinge videos, there will be that information on them 😊
Look for my playlist with hinges/ironmongery and also try a video 'install concealed Hinges..."
Cheers ryan
@@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop Thanks 👍 and..... Holy playlists, Batman!! (he said showing his age ;)) What a superb collection of "exactly what I need" for a project that I'm finding quite daunting to be honest 🤪🤣
At about a 1/3 of the price of a Blum or hettich one, good value.
It’s got room for improvement over the top end ones. Depending on the size of the doors, thickness of cupboard carcass and hinge used 4.5mm is a required set back. I would have liked a variable stop to the top or bottom of door included. The dust extraction has not been thought about.
A corresponding hinge plate jig to align back plate on carcass is needed to complete the set.
I’ve had one of these jigs for a while. I am not constantly doing Euro hinges and do take my time over fitting them (largely through lack of practice). I’ve never had to worry about that 0.5mm setback; I’m not saying it’s not required but I have been okay using a 3mm but more usually a 4mm or 5mm setback.
I understand the point about a variable top and bottom position stop but, again, I’ve not come across a situation where I needed anything different than the jig allows. I can see that if you are fitting new doors to an old carcass (or vice versa), then you might need to vary that stop position but that’s not been a requirement for me. So far.
Inevitably, it does come down to quality, accuracy, features and price. I have had no issues with the quality; I’ve dropped it once with no issues. Accuracy or perhaps better repeatability of accuracy has been good for me. Features - additional like-to-haves have been mentioned although their absence hasn’t bothered me but might be an issue for some. Price is really the result of the combination of the first 3. No point to the jig at all if it’s not high quality or inaccurate whilst additional features would presumably mean higher price for all whilst not needed by many/most.
I no longer have any hesitation about buying Veiko. None of their tools has in any way been inferior; perhaps I have been lucky with that. The costs remain a fraction of equivalent US branded products. Why? I don’t know. All are made on CNC machines (therefore the labour content is small) using aluminium which is a global priced product. I can’t imagine the different shipping costs from US to UK or China to UK is that big a deal.
The inevitable question seems to be - are Veiko selling at a loss or companies such as Woodpeckers making huge profits? Do Woodpeckers, Incra, Kreg etc. have to sell at their prices in order to make a sustainable profit? Or have they calculated that there are enough people to pay for their brands at the high prices such that selling more product but a lower price would actually mean lower total profit?
I dislike pretty much everything about the political situation in China. We are stupid to allow China to buy up companies who own so much of the worlds raw materials (Australia). We would be dumb to allow Chinese companies to supply strategic products to us (telephony, military materiel). However, their current actions bear comparison to many of the actions being taken now, or in the near past, by Western countries. We are not whiter than white; people on glass houses should not throw stones.
But, should I boycott all Chinese made goods? That would seem to mean that I can buy nothing which has chips in them for instance.
I made much the same comment in another reply. I was told quite forcefully by someone that I had to buy products made in US or UK or wherever apart from China otherwise my children will only have jobs available in McDonalds. I don’t know if that respondent held shares in Incra or the like but the notion that I should pay, in my opinion, unnecessarily high prices to make US or UK companies high profits is just daft. Unless you are a billionaire and costs mean nothing to your budget; not many of them doing woodwork. Apart from the London Craftsman.
Great information do you set always at 3mm for mdf @ 18mm. I thought you did another video when you mentioned 4mm. I just want to check before I start I may be using a kreg or a trend jig using gtv hinges. Hope you can answer 👍
Hi, I don't think that 1mm makes a huge difference .
Maybe meet in the middle 3.5mm 😊👍
Again it's not critical but 3-4 mm will work 👍
Interesting video 😁 btw, do you think you'll start doing actual installation videos again at customers homes? I always liked seeing your finished projects and how you explain everything as you go.
Thanks!
I do have a site fitting video coming next week I beleive 🙂
@@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop then I can't wait!
Cheers mate! 👍
Change your opening from that cheese hand thing. Love the videos
Just wish it did the mounting plate
2:25 there's only one screw for the lateral stop position because you'll never need two at the same time. Either you butt it up against the top of the door to drill a hole, or the bottom. A second screw would be in the way.
Yep I know 👍👍👍
@@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop Nevermind, misheard and thought you said you lost one :)
Sorry mate, yes I did say that. Realistically I should have said there was only one as that is all that is needed 👍👍
Just a quick FYI... The aluminium hinge jig link in your description takes you to a 200mm carpenter's square - worth a tweak?
Thanks for letting me know maty 👍👍👍👌
Just changed it 😁
So its only for fitting half the hinge
Hey Bud, the 35mm cutter with Veiko, is that the same as the Kreg Cutter ?
Hi mate, yes all 35mm hinge cutters are the same, some are just better made than others 👍
How do you fit the mounting plate on the doors? Is there a jig for that? I'm a rookie and just started.
There isnt a jig for that. Watch my video on intalling concealed hinges and it will show you :-)
I really like your videos as you and your team clearly have a vast amount of experience and knowledge which you initially did pass on , but the more and more I watch the videos I just feel like I am watching a promotional video for some kit a company has given you, to try and get us to buy, which is such a shame
Thanks for your input.
These tools were bought with my own money.
You need to remember nobody pays to get my time and knowledge, unless you would like to join membership and contribute???
I am sharing a product in which I am extremely happy with and would like to let other woodworkers know about it.
I do earn a VERY small amount of commission from anyone who does buy through my links, and considering at least 8 -10 hours of my life goes into the planning, making and editing of each single video I make (for free), I don't think earning a little, every now and then is something I should be ashamed of doing.
Again membership is available if you feel I should constantly do how to videos.
Many thanks
Ryan
Can you buy an off the shelf 35mm forster bit to fit if the original one gets blunt?
Hi yes you can buy them anywhere, screwfix toolstation etc.. just don't buy the cheapest one spend 20 quid or so on one. They are all standard sizes, probably called a hinge cutter in the shops
@@thelondoncraftsmanworkshop Great thanks for the content and answering my question
Do you have to pay duty on the stuff you from banggood?
I havnt bought anything for a few months and never had any duty to pay
Nice video. Whats the music at the end please? Ta
Hi thanks, it's from the filmora editing software music and it's called at the shore, I believe
Sounds nice, but also like you’re about to go to space.
7:25 I slowed it down and it moved. Or is it just me?
I'm not sure, I don't think so 🤔
