John Heisz - I Build It

Videos on woodworking and workshop related projects.
Check out my website for hundreds of cool projects: https://ibuildit.ca/

Me and my shop are in Ontario, Canada. I'm a carpenter by trade and have worked in commercial construction since 1985.

Concerning my videos:
I can't and won't cover (or follow) every safety rule when doing a project, and it's not my responsibility to train the people that watch my videos. It is up to them to learn, understand and follow the safety rules concerning the tools they choose to work with.
My videos are not comprehensive tutorials - they are a look at how I did the project and should be viewed as entertainment or a source of inspiration.

What makes this different in the enclosure and large doors that cover it and help keep it clean and free of dust. The doors also double as a place to keep my commonly used jigs and sleds in a very convenient place. Another advantage of spacing the pegs closer together is that it reduces the amount of digging you need to do to get a certain board out. I think 6" spacing is perfect for this. ▶️ Project plans for sale: https://ibuildit.ca/plans/ ▶️Support the work I do on Locals: https://ibuildit.locals.com/ ▶️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=865843&ty=h ▶️ Join my Makers Mob for detailed build tutorials: https://go.themakersmob.com/john-heisz-i-build-it/?via=ibuildit My "Scrap bin" channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/IBuildItScrapBin #ibuildit #woodworking Website: https://ibuildit.ca/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/I-Build-It-258048014240900/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/i_build_it.ca/

The handles clamp the sandpaper in place when they close and release it when they open. Two or three thin sheets of stiff plastic (like from a large soda bottle may work better than the thin sheet metal and be easier to get.
