Great video - CZcams hasn’t given me alerts of your last several videos. I thought you weren’t making them. Today’s my catch up day! 👍
Dang! I get a shout out in a video LPL comments on! Been a picking enthusiast for a decade and love your channel. If you ever want to collaborate I could build you a pick wall full of locks or anything really. We have a 5x10 laser and cnc as well as 3d printers. I love prototyping new tools and would jump at the chance to work on a new tool idea with you. Big fan my friend!
Ya
Ha! Glad this one popped up for you! Enjoy! ☺️
Happy holidays to you too 🎄
@LockPickingLawyer - Turn notifications off, then turn them back on and select the mode of notices you prefer. :) This worked for me when I failed to get notifications on some other channels.
I agree with everyone except for "sandwich guy" I always get something from your videos and it does not cost me a dime. Thanks Tamar, I now have my eyes on some nice upgrades thanks to you.
Glad you find them informative!
Some say he is still waiting for a sandwich that his woman was supposed to be making for him last year.
Been a Carpenter for years now, I love vids like, aways find something super useful that I hadn't thought of. Thank you!
So awesome to hear!
You always act like you're "one of us". Love it. Thanks
Aha, but you forget carpenters are trained to be like us despite the fact they really dwell in an arborial heaven.
Everyone knows that.
I just mean that she's a mom, she's a wife, she makes mistakes (and then she solves them in front of us) and she got this contagious enthusiasm...
She doesn't have that "pro" attitude... That's it. :D
Hahah! Glad you like it!
"Arboreal" 🤣🤣🤣 excellent word choice 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I really liked the tip about scribing a line with an awl to line up fortsner bit holes. Thanks for the video!
Yeah! It’s a good one! Glad you liked it!
You are a wonderful credit to the woodworking world! Your enthusiasm and tool knowledge are amazing. As I have been a woodworker for around 50;years, I have accumulated many of the tools you described, … but… you made a good point regarding some of the measuring/marking tools, so I’m heading online to put an order in. Thanks for the great presentation. PS Wait until spring to work on the lattice repair 😉
Tamar, thank you for doing these videos, they are so helpful and you, my dear, are a true treasure! Your enthusiasm is infectious!
Tamar, this is SUCH a great video! Love the eye contact, all information was given in a straightforward manner, no bs, no rambling. You have a great personality and are incredibly smart. I have been following you for a while and will continue to do so. Thanks for the video! Love from Brazil
So awesome to hear! Thanks so much! ✌️
I love the energy and excitement you bring to these videos and this craft.
So awesome to hear. Glad you like it!
So glad I found this channel. Very informative and your personality is absolutely wonderful.
I’m new to woodworking and recently found your channel. Thank you for a great attitude, useful content, and educating with a positive and ego free approach. This is another great video 👍
So glad you like it! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing with us. Keep doing whatever you are doing. Great job Ms.
Thanks so much! Glad you liked it
Thank you for your relaxing attitude and yes, you have opened my eyes to the accuracy or lack there of, of my set squares. Thank you for your very informative video.
Glad you found it informative!
I am new to wood working. And I’m really loving your videos. Thanks for doing what you do
Awesome to hear
I always find your videos informative, relevant and your skill is plain to see. Added to your energised and enthusiastic delivery they are always a pleasure to watch. That someone would wish to denigrate you is a reflection on their own shortcomings and good on you for pinning the comment to expose them.
Thanks for showing a rust solution as I have had a few issues there as well, my shed is just metal walls and an uneven dirt floor.
Thanks so much! Awesome to hear! Yeah. I’ve been getting these kinds of comments for a while and I guess I just had enough.... ha.
I Don't have time for your bigger projects but videos like this are SOOOO helpful. Thanks and realize how many people you make happy.
That’s so awesome to hear! Glad you found it useful!
Cool video explaining it all clearly. And your enthusiasm is contagious! Greetings from Poland!
I think I’ve watched 4 or 5 of your videos after getting home from work. I absolutely love the enthusiasm you have towards wood working and diy crafts.
Awesome to hear!
Seus trabalhos são incríveis Tamar! Parabéns!!!
Great video - as are all of your videos... concise, no music!!, informative, down to earth... And I always check out your recommendations! Also, not sure if was mentioned already, but the fast cap measuring tape, in addition to being of fantastic quality, also reads right to left and left to right, which I find VERY convenient.
Please keep up the great work!
It also has a built it pencil sharpener!
I've seen many reviews before and this one was very well presented showing both pro's and con's, well done
So glad you liked it!
I love your videos. I have been woodworking for years and every time I see one, I learn something! Keep up the great work.
So awesome to hear! Thanks!
That sliding into frame intro was epic!!!!
😂
First time viewer here, your video was very informative and in depth, and was very enjoyable with your great personality and happiness you pour out over your experience and love for your tools that you share with your viewers.
I'm in commercial construction professionally, but am wanting to try my hand at making my own furniture or crafts. Definitely will be watching your videos from now on.
Subscribed, and will be looking for your next videos!
Awesome to hear! Welcome to the wild world of woodworking! Ha!
Your enthusiasm makes your videos fun and interesting. A bright smile and twinkle in your eyes help too. I never get bored halfway through. Thanks for your delightful presentation and information.
Awesome to hear!
Your enthusiasm is infectious. Thanks for the video
☺️☺️ glad you liked it
Great video with superb ideas. Thanks. Also, I was amazed how your combination ruler came out in the end 👍
Thanks so much! Yeah! I was actually a bit worried it wasn’t going to work.... ha
I'm just starting my woodworking journey so this was a really useful insight into marking tools. Cheers.
Awesome to hear
You’re an inspiration! I have just bought my first live edge (pippy oak) slab and making a dresser top. First time I have done anything like it. Owe a lot to you!
Awesome!! Have fun with it! Don’t forget! You’re going to make mistakes! Just figure out ways to fix them and you’re good 😉
I too had a problem of "not finding anything" while working, so I built a small "temp box" 18 x 8 x 6 out of scrap wood. It has a lid, a baffle & a vertical pencil holder. Now whenever I use the hand tools, drills, screws etc. on a given project, I place them back into the temp box . Surprise! They are there when I want to use them again. It has saved me a lot of "where the heck did I put it" time. Also handy for clean ups.
Haha! But you have to remember to put them there.... 😂
Great ideas for Christmas gift!! Thanks!
Glad you like it!
A very rare video which makes recomendations on both quality tools and DIY - light options from the same company.
Please accept my follow. Bravo.
Nice. Glad you liked it!
Always quality work from you! Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much! ☺️☺️
Thanks, Tamar. I didn't know about the Shinwa bevel gauge. And your tip on the marking knife is hugely helpful. And I didn't know about the WD40 rust products. Keep teaching!
So glad this was informative!
Love all the marking tools. I agree with that tape, found it recently and I love it!!
Yes! It’s the best!
What I love about Tamar’s product placement is that they contain helpful info and I always learn something!
Glad you think so!
Great video as always! I love your stuff and have been learning from you for some time now. I’m still but a splinter in the great oak tree of woodworking but with some these recommendations I could definitely up my game. Thanks again and keep up the great work! And yes, I agree with you about the lattice. 👍👍👍
Thanks so much! So glad you like it! Ha the lattice.... every summer we say we’re going to redo the whole deck. So I don’t bother just fixing that part. Then summer rolls through.... one day I’ll get to it!
Great video! Very clear and informative.
Great video! Woodworking for many many years and totally respected what you projected in the video. It took a great number of years before I had the courage to invest in good measurement and layout tools. I'm 65 and it wasn't until the last 4 years I bought into a couple of Woodpeckers squares extremely well made but overpriced (my opinion, mainly due to shipping costs to Canada).
I don't start a project until I have one of their squares in hand. I have a bunch of Starett squares left to me from my father-in-law that I restored and cherish and use as well.
Thanks! Yeah. Hopefully I can get my hands on some more woodpeckers squares. They are really great.
I've had that Kapro magnetic square for a few years now and you're the first CZcamsr I've seen mention it! I got more excited than I care to admit to see it show up.
Hahaha! It’s the little things 😂
Great video, Tamar! 😃
Thanks for all the tips!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks! So glad you liked it!
Thanks for the great recommendations! I just purchased the DFM small square which I am sure will be very helpful!!
Hope you enjoy it!
That cleaned up really well! Thanks!
Yeah! I was worried if it would work or not. Ha
Great presentation Tamar ! Very informative ! TY !
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
I have Countless tips saved from your Awesome Videos Tamar! Always Inspiring and Thank you as Always. Enjoy your holidays
So awesome to hear! You too!
I thoroughly enjoy your tool savvy Ms.T. I'm sure to pick up a few for the future!!
Awesome!
Very comprehensive, detailed and useful information. Many thanks for your great work and sharing. 🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏👍👍👍
Glad you like it!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 gran video ... felices fiestas y a cuidarse mucho
Tamar. Don't know where you came from. Don't know where you are today and I don't know where you are going.
I only know that I found your site a few weeks or a month or so ago, and that if I am feeling pissed with the way the world turns at the moment, there is something about you, how you explain things, what you do, your practicality and your humerous reality of a very human presence that makes me feel more comfortable in my own skin.
Thank's Tamar and best wishes for 2021 to you and yours, whoever and wherever they are. Last time I heard your name it was as a river in Plymouth UK, crossed by a ferry and a bridge, and I always enjoyed spending time with that river's natural flow, too.
Ha! So awesome to hear! Glad you found me!
You came prepared, a soldier who knows her field well. I just love how articulate you break down your demonstrations. Big Ups to you once again. @Chooper you need to take that BACK!!!!
Ha! Thanks so much! Glad you liked it!
How to align steel Carpenter's Square.
I was blessed to have a very old steel Carpenter's Square andusing the method you demonstrated learned it was out of square. The Square had a history of over 100 years of use and was worthy of adjustment. I corrected the steel square by "hammering" steel punch dimple(s). In my case the square angle was acute (
Hi a thank you for making these from Europe, I enjoy your videos, I learn a lot and your personality and accent are great 👍
Awesome to hear! Thanks!
I just got one of those lefty/righty tape measures at woodcraft. My FAVORITE tape measure!
Yes! I have like 4 of them... and sometime I can’t even find one of them.... 😂
Grate video!!! I really enjoy your videos!!!Thank you!!!
Thanks! So glad you liked it!
Great video as always, 3 tools that I use regularly for marking are a digital angle rule, automatic punch and my favourite is a digital height tool ( don’t know it’s real name) used for router and blade height but I use it mostly for transferring measurements as it’s so accurate
Hello ,Tamar , thank you for the many helpful Videos.Wishing you and your Family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year with more Videos and stay healthy .Best wishes from Germany
Thanks!
Great video, and thank you for all the links, a lot of time and work went into this video and I appreciate you sharing your experiences with each tool.
Glad you appreciate it!
I love your attitude and excitement!
☺️
Thanks for the love T! Great video!
Next time give me a heads up when you plan on posting the same thing as me.... 😂😂😂
@@3x3CustomTamar hahahaha deal!
@@3x3CustomTamar He should send out a memo to the other CZcams Woodworking All Stars like yourself !! lol
@@katzmosestools I watched both videos. If you guys didn't make any copied videos we would have less videos to watch. I've learned so much from both of you, I need all the content I can get! Great stuff the both of you.
@@ImurTuta Yeah, we absolutely need more people covering the same types of projects. Not just so we have more videos to watch, but because there are often several ways to skin a fish, and one person may do it in a way that's awkward to you (or use tools that you don't have), and in that case another video night show another way to achieve the same result.
I appreciate the video! This is an area I haven't run across too much guidance; very informative.
So glad you liked it!
Tamar I just love watching your videos. You are so upbeat. Keep up the great work. Ha from Texas.
Awesome to hear! Thanks!
WD-40 and woodcraft are lucky to have you. Thanks as always.
☺️☺️
What a great video Tamar ! Explaining the tools that would help any wood worker. Like you my shop is on a old barn where the elements play havoc. I’m going to try some of the WD products, not to mention some of the tools.
Thanks
Awesome! Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for sharing! I love all the tools!
Glad you liked it!
Excellent video, great examples and rationale. Love my Starrett combo square. I moved on to the satin finished rulers, I couldn't keep up with the rust removal. I like the marking gauge for precise power tool cuts too. I also quit using digital calipers, as I don't like chasing digital readouts, using instead Starretts analog/dial calipers. Much less stress. Keep coming up with the great stuff!
Glad you liked it!
Another fun and informative video. I like to see what tools other makers favor. Would be fun if a bunch of you got together and had a sort of tool shoot out.
Haha arguments on why we like one over the other 😂
All great tips. You can never have enough tools but we can make do with some basic ones. You're spot on though, it's pointless if you can't make anything square or if you can't drill a hole where it's supposed to be.
Great job! This was a very informative video. I watched it twice. Thank you
Awesome to hear!
Well done and useful. Thanks.
Great tips!!
Thanks so much!
You are so welcome!
A Starrett square is top drawer. Amen!
Good advice all around. Thank you.
Absolutely! It’s the best.
I bought the small DFM square moments after I saw you use one in a video a while back. LOVE it! looking forward to buying more of their stuff :)
Awesome! I love supporting companies like his.
The metal square you tossed in the trash, I’ve corrected one twice the size using a metal punch. Simply see which corner of the elbow, the inside or the outside, is less than 90-degrees. Then using a hammer and punch put create a dimple. It make take a good wallop with the hammer, and maybe more than one dimple on the acute angle side. But I corrected a 24” metal square with one dimple that took only two medium hammer blows.
I love this... so nice to see something other "clamps." Definitely picking up those DFM tools!!
Awesome! They are great
Good info!Merry Christmas!
Glad you liked it!
Great vid as always, thanks , have a great Christmas and stay safe, Woodpecker squares for me everytime!
Woodpeckers are the best!
I think you just populated my Christmas list!! Thanks!!
Awesome!!
This is a really good and informative video. Thanks
So glad you think so!
Great work...greeting from Malaysia....Happy Christmas...
Thanks!
Thanks for continuously great info!
Glad you like it!
I'm a little late but I was looking for some good measuring tools. Great video!
First vid of yours I’ve seen, awesome and really informative
Glad you liked it!

Thankyou for the tips!,!! MERRY CHRISTMAS to You!!!!

Great video. Commercial was well integrated an not intrusive. Awesome tips and tools. Mahalo for sharing! : )
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Great advise Tamar. Love your smile and by the way, keep on smiling.
Thanks! I’ll try ☺️
Another well made video, well worth watching.
So awesome to hear! Glad you liked it!
Good video... really like the marking knife kit... will get two or three of these myself...
Awesome! It’s such a good knife. And a fun project to make yourself!
Nice video and thanks a lot for always answer to the comment you are one of the few taking time to answer people writing you. Keep up the good work and happy new year.
Thanks! Glad you appreciate it!
Great video. You provide good info, and demonstrate very well. I do like that you include video where it is reality. Like when you took the square ruler out of the WD-40 liquid, and we saw the experience you had with it, such discovery that what you that was rust still on there, was actually some black “stuff” and was easily removed. You also say that you don’t need all these tools, this is what you need to start out, and as you get better you can use tools that help accuracy.
Thanks so much! So glad you liked it!
Great job, well done 👍👍
Thanks!
Great tips and suggestions . Thank you
Glad you liked it!
Thanks for this video! I bought myself more than I should have but I feel good about what I ordered because of your enthusiasm. I think I'm also hoping your recommendations will miraculously boost my capabilities. Thanks for sharing you can't find anything cuz I can't either but my only excuse is it's a first year for my garage conversion. On the other hand I don't have three kids & a hubby to care for so not a good excuse. 😒 Happy holidays & new year! Stay safe & healthy & make more videos!😜
Glad you found it useful! Yeah. I think 50 percent of my time in the shop is spent looking for the thing I just put down somewhere. Ha
@@3x3CustomTamar I swear everything becomes a Chameleon as soon as I put it down! Or I'm blind!
@@mariangraham9074 haha becomes a chameleon. Love that
@@3x3CustomTamar I go for color wherever possible to fight the general blend but it still doesn't help. Have a great day (what's left)!
Omg... hahaha. For some reason seeing that square landing in the trash can had me chuckling...
Glad to hear. Some ppl got really pissed. Ha
Love you. Great video. A lot of great tools you highlighted.
Glad you liked it!
Awesome video T.
