Get em made in metal. They’ll sell like hotcakes!

Nice job! Thank you for sharing Peter!

Any chance you use Robertson screws instead of Phillips? You strike me as someone who would appreciate the superior square drive from Canada.

For an inset door, what offset do you drill the hinge at? I use the KREG hinge jig and it has offset cams for when you drill the cup hinge. I don't know what the offset would be on this type of hinge

At the risk of using bad language - the infill boxes would be good 3d-printed too.

I would think that ply is manufactured by Koskisen of Finland, they manufacture a lot of quality thin plywood. I recently had some samples sent o me by their Uk rep and it is certainly a quality product. they also do a 4 ply 3mm ply as well as the 6 ply. It is considerably cheaper to buy direct but there is a MOQ of 200 sheets,

What a brilliant idea using an upright square to assemble stuff. No fussing about.

Christmas? Works great for father's day as well! Birilliant list.

I have this saw and we need to keep in mind it’s limitations. Yes, with the base you can use it on a track. You need to manually set the distance every time you install the base, which tends to wear on the rubber strip. You also need to provide your own Allen wrench for the mounting screws. The saw is also very limited in both power and endurance. I wouldn’t plan on more than a couple cuts on only the thinnest stock.

try bamboo its amazing

The Mac Allister looks like a rebadge of the Wen we have in the US

What brand of spacers are you using around the inlay doors

Hi Peter Great info as usual. When I researched the 9088 tape, i found that it had been replaced by 3M GPT-020

Thanks Peter. I appreciate your clever approach

4mm! Hmmm.

hi my mdf furniture with wood texture (not sure if veneer) doesnt heave even finish. a drwaer looks slightly darker. the furniture maker who made it low quality finish says he can grit/sand the dark piece to open the color. and apply varnish to match the rest. does it sound good? i am so confused and frustrated

I was the Guitar Doctor for Stars Guitars from '77 - '80, which had started out as the store that Alembic had at 60 Brady Alley in San Francisco until they decided to sell off the store, which became Stars, owned by Ron Armstrong who started it & two partners; their professional 24 track recording studio, which became His Master's Wheels, owned by Elliot Mazer ,and their speaker cabinet business when they moved to Cotati, California to just concentrate on making state of the art, neck through the body electric guitars and basses. The speaker cabinets were made out of 13 ply 3/4" Finnish birch with 5/8" soundboards. They did that because marine grade plywood has no voids (which would cause unwanted vibration induced noise) and it is waterproof which makes it the only choice for professional outdoor concert sound systems. Look at video of any of the big Rock & Roll concerts from the late '60's through the '80's and you'll see them being use on stage and up in towers as the PA system. (The musicians all have their own favorite instrument amps & speakers.) Sorry to be so over long, but I thought the weather resistance of marine grade, voidless plywood might come in handy for outdoor and/or humid conditions plus, of course, cutting holes for finger pulls, etc. w/o having to fill an unexpected gap in a project. My Alembic B-12 speaker cabinet and the 5/8" speaker board I replaced the original one in my Fender Super Reverb with have all held up remarkably well over the decades from club work to large outdoor concerts with no deformation whatsoever.

A better option is the Metabo MFT "Multifunktionstisch MWB 100 (626991000)". They really fixed this problems I believe.

Aircraft Spruce and Specialty Co. I think they took their name from selling.....spruce....for airplanes. There are pretty strict rules (thank goodness) for the density, strength, quality and species of wood used on planes. Lots of planes are still made of wood and have been since Orville and Wilbur. AS&SC are a long established company that sells almost anything you can imagine to build or repair or maintain your aircraft. Good quality, not cheap (what is for an airplane?).

Just bought it - I have a good cabinet saw but this is excellent for small boxes and precise small work!

Thanks for the review of this. I was underwhelmed by the strength of the Clamex S-20 but i have never used the P-20 to compare. My approach is to use them along with standard biscuits with glue for better long term strength, just using the S-20 as a clamp which they do just fine.

Rang a bell just checked I have 2 sheets of 6mm 6 ply I have been keeping for a rainy day From a big box store in Germany.

Pricey stuff but looks good! See you at Makers Central - I'm going for the first time as a visitor not stuck on a stand :D

Hi Peter, you have been a naughty boy! All the sides of the doors were cut and although most of the dust went towards the wall of your bench you did not wear a mask to protect yourself. All jokes apart I do enjoy your videos greatly and would not want you to get unwell.

Ive dun a video about dowels

Great video's Why use expensive aircraft grade plywood for draw dividers?

Especially at smaller dimensions like those, I tend to resaw solid lumber-from offcuts if I have them, which I usually do-and mill to final thickness.

It is an absolute delight to work with that quality of material, and the things you can do… wort every penny 🤓

Hi Peter - love your 10 minute videos, great value. I have am using a Zeta P2 now and love it, in fact done a complete house 4 bedrooms, kitchen, scullery, and did not use a single screw, only Clamex & Tenso P10 fittings, a lot of work but great challenge. Do you have any cleaver suggestions on how I could repair a Zeta cut that was misplaced and is visible in the cupboard side? Will all of the 100's of cuts I made only 2 mistakes and would like to try to hide them. The cabinet finish is 16mm dual faced melamine, white, chipboard. Thanks in advance.

Here we go again- learning about material that I need to save for 😅. Last time I went down that Peter Millard rabbit hole, I wound up with a sheet of black Valchromat and made new tops for my mft's. Very cool, but very expensive stuff. But I did learn something new and had great fun doing it, so that's really what matters at the end of the day, doesn't it?

Hi Peter, to polish my skills I wish to make an mft myself. I was wondering what's the distance between edge and first line of holes? thanks

Isn't it strange how timber prices have not rationalised post pandemic ? - Trees must have had a cost of living crisis that we didn't know about - or Putin is just taking the Mik - or Canada just stopped supply - or Sweden didn't want to join the game - is it just me , or are they gouging ? Weetabix £ 7.00 - its dearer than contiboard, but doesn't glue as well.

An odd I,beri plys will aiways give you the two faces in the same orientation if grain. It sounded like you said they were opposite.

one can't help thinking it is a bit like flogging a dead horse, MFT tables come up second hand all the time and if you want an MFT you are probably capable of making a frame and legs for a replacement MFT top,

Track saw has absolutely changed my life. I’ve a stigmatism in both eyes, in opposite directions and can’t cut a straight line to save my life. No amount of careful practice changed that. The tracksaw did. I’ve also hardly any space but use a lot of sheet materials. I have to cut full size boards upright (clamps on track) as my rear garden is HALF the width of your workshop, but, I manage. Hands down best tool I’ve ever brought.

So no new DH98 Mosquito coming out of the Millard Aircraft Factory, in the near future, then?

Thanks for this informative review. Very well spoken and presented. 👍

Thanks Peter, interesting (although unlike a lot of your other videos I won't be building this one!) I wonder if are you going to review Benchdogs new MFT tops that I've just had an email about though?

Wow! My three go-to UK DIYers in one place! 🤔🤣😁

Out here on the west coast of Canada, (British Columbia) we have a long history of making aircraft out of aircraft plywood. Not regulated during WWII like aluminum it gained quite the reputation for strength and airworthiness. Look up the "Spruce Goose" it was the worlds largest seaplane made of wood. The footage is crazy. Wi can pick it up at our specialty store. JIM

Anybody else got serious plywood envy after watching this? 🙂 Great video Peter.

Peter, congratulations on the videos, it's very TOP

Maker Central looks awesome! Unfortunately I'm heading back from America that weekend, but it'll definitely be one to try to get to next year!
