if the car back door is not wide enough, but the interior is, you can load the sheets diagonally and either lay them at a slight diagonal angle inside or flat depending on your vehicle's dimensions.

Did you ever get to stapling it to the studs? That is an important step

Good video
Must be nice that so many videos regarding this don't have the same issue i do where the fan is quite literally stuck
Has doing this only Americans would do, done any of you people any good,im from scotland and we have meters too but none of us think the way you guys do,so whats up after all these years has it saved your health or mental health ,atb
Nice. Love it
Just found your channel and I love it! Why’d you quit UA-cam?
They will make you respect them. That's for damn sure. Never get complacent my friend. No matter how long you have been doing something .
Can I get one that doesn’t funnel right into the vent? My older version looks different than the new models.
Instasubcribed …. I promise I’ll remember everything you said when I wake back up 😎
Sienna can hold 4x8. My Odessy can also fit 4x8.
At 2:33 The Fence should have been to the left side of the blade. Cheeers.
I see no scribing knife on your table saw
Thats not true that radiation does not come out of the back. I used an accoustimeter AM-11rf meter to measure inside an electrical room with 16 smart meters and the reading was through the roof as high as the meter could even read. On the opposite side of the wall which was the kitchen of an apartment I was considering renting the meter reading was about half of what it was in the electrical room with all of the smart meters. So the meters were on the wall but they were not in metal boxes. It looked like there was some wood slab or something they placed on the wall prior to putting the meters on the wall but the meters were not in metal boxes. Keep in mind the apartment unit was totally empty with no other sources of radiation and the electricity for the apartment was not even turned on yet so there was no dirty electricity or other sources of electricity yet except for the wall of smart meters, so the radiation was penetrating througth the wall at roughly 1000 microwatts per square meter which is extremely high and will most certainly effect a person who has electromagnetic sensitivity.
Thank you for this video. I have an old Craftsman radial arm saw that I was going to get rid of to save space until I saw this video. :-)
This is genius
How are the filters held in place?
I'm not a handy guy so I turned to youtube to help me see how to do this. Yours is the ONLY video I saw that alerted me to the need to remove the "set screw". THANK YOU!
Thank you!! Were exactly would the lock washers go?
Pesky RF emissions? your phone, TV, fridge gives probably more RF emissions.. Knew Americans are dumb AF.. but not this much.. surprising.
The Chevy Suburban, GMC Yukon XL, and the Jeep Wagoner L (the extended length one) can fit a full, even slightly over-sized 4x8 sheet of plywood in their backs with all seats folded down. I would also expect the Ford Expedition Max (the extended length one) to do it. The Jeep Grand Wagoner can not do it, because it has the stupid center console in the second row

Lol doesn’t padskinz literally offer this service without having to deal with all the hassle
This was a very well made video and exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.
Do you have to take the table off to change out the motor? I have a model 68 which I have used and loved for 40+ years. the motor finally gave up the ghost but I did find the same motor for replacement. now I am not sure what to do!?!
I fixed my iron today using your video! So happy that you have the same model and made this video to share with us all!
We call this fish-tailing at our old shop
You are a good dad
I wish you would have shown the inside of the boot after the screws went in. Were they flush?
Thank you as I'm a woman now I can follow how you did it. Thanks
Thank you sir.
Just found this vid while looking for resources on filling my kitchen cabinet holes- I want to change from single knobs to 2-screw handles. Unfortunately my cabinetry is a kind of printed wood laminate so I’ll keep searching for ways to patch that up. However, the jig idea is brilliant! I’ll be using that. Thanks so much ☺️🍓
You need to read for audiobooks. Or meditation guides. Your voice is like beeswax on a freshly made coffee table. Buttery.
This video would have been much, much better without the stupid music!!!
Based on this, there is no way to easily remove brass tarnish. I find that unacceptable.
That's pretty easy. If you have a better way I would be happy to see it.
The jig idea is ingenuity at its finest - thanks for sharing! I plan on painting my kitchen cabinets and changing the pulls this weekend.
Oh yeah? really? All you need to build your own pickguard.. Is.. The pickguard material. And a fully geared up Shop with multiple saws sanders routers ? yeah? That's easer/cheaper than buying one? (I don't think so) LOL what a joke.. 100% Clown Shoes
Hi What kind and model is this? It’s the one I need because the plug hole is in the right place. Thank you
good vid, yea the kick back on those things scares me also.
Thanks I have to replace the whole chord because the insulation is deteriorating because of age. This video gives me the confidence to know it's an easy fix.
I have the same model van and haven't needed to get plywood yet. Thanks for the video. I may build a small ramp to get the wood up over the console Or just drive with the tailgate ajar.
Great video! This gave me courage to tackle the job myself and succeed! Thank you for making this video. You are awesome! You rock!!
THANK YOU!!!!
Nice build. I got a great deal on discontinued Rockler steel shop stands and made my station out of them (adding plywood tops and sides, cabinet doors, etc.). It can do cuts to either side just over 10 foot.... the entire setup is almost 22 feet along the entire shop wall. I made the auxiliary fences removable, so I can use the sides as work benches when needed. The one thing you did that I wish I had... in place of a cabinet directly below the saw, leave it open for a trash can!
2023 update? How is it doing after a few years of use?
I love the saw and it's running perfectly. I even moved across the country and it's heavy and was hard to move, it is still going great.
Looks great. Nice work but what are those things that you put inside of it?
Lol
I have family members with seizures and heart problems this is great advise thank you!
Thank you for posting this was awesome information
