7. 0:11little more on the expensive side. Some
8. 0:12woodworking tools, some gift options.
9. 0:15Let's get right into it.
10. 0:29These are great for things like little
11. 0:33little machinist parts that you're using
12. 0:35all the time that you don't have a place
13. 0:38for. They sit in the back of the drawer.
14. 0:39You can put it in here, label them for
15. 0:43drill bits you use, certain ones you
16. 0:46really, really like, like expensive
17. 0:48ones,
18. 0:50your router bushing guides. I mean,
19. 0:53there is all sorts of endless I mean I
20. 0:56mean all sorts of uses for these like
21. 0:59these router bushings. I mean
22. 1:03engineer square which yep I can
23. 1:05guarantee you isn't in here which is
24. 1:07probably why I should put it in the
25. 1:08bucket. These are router um sled
26. 1:10flattening bits.
27. 1:12They can go into one of these.
28. 1:16Maybe not the taller one.
29. 1:21Thank you to my mother for getting me a
30. 1:23buttload of these. Um I use them I want
31. 1:26to start using them more, but they're so
32. 1:28great. Next gift. Usually you can buy
33. 1:30these 10 bucks. I think this was seven
34. 1:32bucks. Pack of um this is a 50 pack of
35. 1:36these uh mechanic. They're called a
36. 1:39mechanic. Um but they're just shop
37. 1:40towels. Um I use them for rubbing in
38. 1:44like certain stains and stuff. Like it's
39. 1:46not a super expensive stain. It's like a
40. 1:47quick stain job. if you spill some
41. 1:49stuff. They they go like I go through
42. 1:51them like paper towels, but they're so
43. 1:53much better. Like I use them for
44. 1:55different applying stains or um another
45. 1:58good use for just making messes cleaning
46. 2:01them up so you're not wasting all the
47. 2:03paper towels in your house. You know,
48. 2:04you don't just go through buttloads of
49. 2:06rolls. Um just make sure you dispose of
50. 2:09them properly cuz when they have certain
51. 2:10chemicals on them, they can get kind of
52. 2:11flammable.
53. 2:12>> This is Sawdust reporting live with
54. 2:13breaking news from LST woodworking.
55. 2:14Officials say a completely avoidable
56. 2:15fire started after hot shop rags were
57. 2:16thrown into a garbage bin. Within
58. 2:17minutes, the situation got completely
59. 2:18rags and out of hand. Officials say the
60. 2:19fire eventually damaged three buildings.
61. 2:21Surface looks to claim you.
62. 2:21>> No, man. Wrong guy. It wasn't me.
63. 2:23>> Those are literally the rags.
64. 2:24>> No, man. Wasn't me, man. I got to go.
65. 2:25Hey, come back.
66. 2:26>> All the stores have them. I just like to
67. 2:27get them Harbor Freight. Doesn't matter
68. 2:28to get them white. Um, red. I don't I
69. 2:31just grabbed the first ones I see.
70. 2:32Usually, I like the red ones. But, let's
71. 2:34get into it. This is the Craig pocket
72. 2:36hole jig combo kit I got for about $50
73. 2:39when it was on sale. It includes your
74. 2:42very own Craig pocket hole jig with the
75. 2:44two bits needed and a little thingy
76. 2:46clamp thing over there. And this alone,
77. 2:49if you buy this just for like 20 or 30,
78. 2:52um, it comes with indooroutdoor screws,
79. 2:56but then you buy the starter kit with
80. 2:59this. It's cheaper than just buying it
81. 3:01alone. You get all these says what they
82. 3:04are up here, what the different colors
83. 3:06means, like waterproof and stuff. good
84. 3:08gift if you're looking for something if
85. 3:09somebody wants to start getting into
86. 3:11woodworking. Pocket hole joinery is one
87. 3:13of the easiest ways to start getting
88. 3:14into woodworking. So, that might be a
89. 3:16viable option. But this was about $40. I
90. 3:19have lost these ones. I I have them in a
91. 3:22bin. They just fell out of their spot.
92. 3:25Um all this it was either 30 35 40 when
93. 3:28it was on sale. It doesn't matter if
94. 3:30it's this is a Cobalt brand. Doesn't
95. 3:32matter if you want to buy the cobalt,
96. 3:34the wall, whatever you see is in store
97. 3:35and on a cheap, it doesn't matter. Um,
98. 3:39and then you're going to want to buy
99. 3:40your expensive paddle bits. You're going
100. 3:41to want to buy your expensive, you know,
101. 3:43you're going to use the Phillips and you
102. 3:45know, learn what you use and whatever it
103. 3:47is for what you're doing, whether it's
104. 3:49epoxy, whatever you do, whatever you use
105. 3:51the most. Really any bit you're going to
106. 3:52need. You can buy them bigger, you can
107. 3:53buy them smaller. Just also for general
108. 3:56around the house, if you're a new
109. 3:57homeowner, this is going to get you
110. 3:58basically whatever you really need.
111. 4:02Last thing I'm going to go over with you
112. 4:03guys is kind of a last minute thing into
113. 4:04the video. This fast cap um lefty righty
114. 4:08tape measure. I love this thing. It all
115. 4:10depends on the person if they'll like
116. 4:12it, but the cool thing about this is on
117. 4:15both sides it shows you. It's a little
118. 4:17bit trippy and you got to get used to
119. 4:18it. Not only does it have what we like
120. 4:20to call the cheater marks for 16s, but
121. 4:23no matter what side you're looking at,
122. 4:25and it's not like Imperial Metric,
123. 4:26they're both the same. You can get it in
124. 4:28whichever, but you can see
125. 4:31No matter what way you're looking, you
126. 4:33can see the side. It's You could see the
127. 4:36same thing. This is $9. It's got a
128. 4:38pencil sharpener on the back. Nice clip.
129. 4:41It's got This front is erasable. You can
130. 4:43write on this with the pencil sharpener.
131. 4:46You can take it, write, and you can
132. 4:47erase this. So, you don't, you know, if
133. 4:49you're always forgetting measurements
134. 4:50and stuff, they make one that the tape
135. 4:52itself is actually flat when you lay it
136. 4:54down. But, this is $9 for one of them. I
137. 4:57can't recommend this thing enough. I
138. 4:58absolutely love this the fast cap lefty
139. 5:02righty tape. I can't recommend this
140. 5:04thing enough. As you can see, there's
141. 5:05some measurements on it. Um,
142. 5:08from when I was in carpentry class, I
143. 5:10was doing things and a couple of these.
144. 5:12Put them around the shop. They're as
145. 5:14accurate as any other tapes I use.
146. 5:16Little pro tip, by the way, when you're
147. 5:17doing a project, only try to use one
148. 5:19tape. It makes things a lot easier.
149. 5:21And that's going to wrap up this video.
