ShopBot Buddy - Power Stick Upgrade
ShopBot Buddy model. Original table size was 24" X 48". I bought the larger powerstick, and installed it to bring the capacity to 48" X 48". I couldn't find a good demo on how to do this, so I made this video as I installed it.
After posting, I was advised by a guy on Reddit who made some corrections to my method. I really appreciate his insight:.
- You don't have to take off the 2 v-wheels like I did to remove and install the powerstick(s). You can just remove the stop at the end and pull the stick straight out.
- He uses rare earth magnets in the track of the powerstick to align the t-nuts with the holes in the spoiler board.

Переглядів 906 місяців тому
The old swing set was getting too small for my kids, so I kept part of it and rebuilt it so it could handle them as they got bigger. Used 12' treated 4 x4's and a 4 x 6 for the top beam.

Nissan Frontier Tailgate Replacement
Переглядів 978Рік тому
I replaced the damaged tailgate on my 2018 Nissan Frontier with a primed tailgate shell I ordered from RockAuto for $318 (they get you on the shipping). I show the steps it took to remove the guts from the old one and put it in the new one. Frontiers are pretty similar from year to year, so it probably would work for most models.

Nissan Frontier - Broken Tail Light Solution (Tail Light Guards)
Переглядів 773Рік тому
There's plenty of videos out there that show you how to replace your tail lights on a Frontier, but what about preventing them from getting broken to begin with? I have hit them way too many times loading shingles, plywood, bikes, etc., so I put on tail light guards after I replaced my broken tail lights. These guards at least give them a chance to survive future impacts.

    there are products where you spray it on your roof and over time it prevents algae, I would imagine you could use that for the walkway. We used wet & forget, but there are other products that do the same (just different names that I don't remember). It did work great on our roof.

    I often wanted to do this same exact project but I was grappling between doing jointing sand or what I thought after the concrete was stained maybe instead of jointing sand sweeping in dry concrete and then wetting it down and after it’s dry then sealing over the entire project a couple times. Do you think that would hold up any better?

    • @KiefferProjects
      @KiefferProjects 2 місяці тому

      I don't think it's a bad idea. However, I wonder if the joints would crack after a winter of heaving. I'm blowing mine out this year and trying joining sand again. I think it might finally settle out now by year 3.

  • @garytomczykjr1783

    How did you get the recommended thickness? My coverage was more than the estimated cover by quite a bit using a 1/2" nap roller. Manual states 3mil thickness, but I am not seeing that type of thickness.

    • @KiefferProjects
      @KiefferProjects 2 місяці тому

      Yeah, I found it to be pretty thin. I just did the one coat, but I'm sure you could go over it a couple times.

    What made you got 2x4 floor joists instead of 2x6?

    • @KiefferProjects
      @KiefferProjects 2 місяці тому

      I was ordinally going for the 2 x 6's, but I've seen enough production sheds with just 2 x 4's that I was convinced it was enough. It's just a shed. I also think going 3/4" on the plywood floor gives you what you need.

    • @KiefferProjects
      @KiefferProjects 2 місяці тому

      3/8 drill should work, you just gotta tighten that chuck down. You could go for old drill with a Jacob's chuck. That will grab on just fine.

    • @KiefferProjects
