142K views · 4K reactions | Genius Hack for cutting around outlets! | Genius Hack for cutting around outlets in beadboard, paneling or boards! | By MrsAshleyFrench | Let me show you the genius hack for cutting around outlets in beadboard or paneling. First, take the screws out of the face plate but leave the faceplate in place and put two pieces of double-sided tape on the outlet cover. Then, press your paneling or board in the exact location it'll go pressing it firmly against the outlet. Carefully pull your board off in the outlet cover should be stuck to the back of your paneling in the exact place it needs to be cut. Lay your board down and trace inside the outlet cover with a pen. You will then cut this space out using a jigsaw or a multi tool. Before reinstalling the board or paneling, I turn the breaker off to the outlets and I install a metal outlet extender inside the outlet opening which extends the outlet out past the board a bit and is an added safety measure and just happens to be required by code in my area. Once the outlets and the extender are properly installed, I put my paneling back in place, secure it to the wall with Brad Nails, and then I screw the faceplate back on and it's done. This is such an easy way to accurately mark where you need to make cutouts without having to measure and fear making a mistake. I've used this method on this beadboard paneling on faux brick paneling, board and batten, and more. If this tip was helpful, make sure to save it for the future.

1M views · 23K reactions | I'm Sharing My Most Handy Woodworking Hacks | I'm Sharing My Most Handy Woodworking Hacks | By Bourbon Moth Woodworking | Go to the store and you buy a coffee grinder. Doesn't matter what brand, anything will work. You grab your sawdust of choice. You sprinkle it in there like your favorite coffee roast. Pack it up in there good. Plop on your lid and voila. Alright. Now, in just a few seconds, we've gone from this to this beautiful, fine powder which is perfect for making our wood fillers. Then, all we gotta do is take some of that, take our wood glue, squirt a bunch on there like a lot and now, you've got a nice, pasty wood filler that's going to be the exact same color as whatever wood you're working with. Pretty much whenever there's a tiny crack in a piece of wood, it's not compromising the integrity of the piece but it's there and I just want to fill little crack and keep moving on. So, here's what you can do. Just take a little glue straight out of the bottle and you're just going to fill up that crack with glue. All you gotta do is take your sander, make sure that if you have dust extraction, you disconnect the dust extraction or turn it off. You want a lot of dust for this process. Then, we're just going to sand directly over this glue and because the dust extraction is not on, what's going to happen is instantaneous all that dust is going to mix with the glue, make a wood filler right under our sander, fill a crack and you're good to go. Now, some of you might have these old-school pony-style clamps with the wood handles. The clamps work great. The one downside is that from an ergonomic standpoint, it's hard to get enough grip on this wood handle because it's slippery. All you gotta do is take your drill or put it on the drill press and drill out a nice little hole in the end of the clamp there. Then, just go down to Home Depot and buy a bolt. Stick it in there, thread it in with a little of epoxy so it can go in but it cannot come back out. Lift the epoxy cure up so that thing is locked in there. Then, the really cool part is you just get a driver with the right size socket attachment and you don't have to twist it with your hands anymore. So, if you really need to clamp that sucker down there good, you just plop it on, get out your driver, and clamp to your little heart's content and I guarantee you're going to get it way tighter with this than you can with your own hand. How to remove minor dents from a piece of hardwood or plywood. Now, first, we gotta make a dent. So, I'm just going to take this hammer and this beautiful piece of walnut and That didn't even make a dent. Let's try a little harder. There we go. A nice little dent from the hammer right in the wood. Now, wood is made of a bunch of little fibers. So, when you dent a piece, you're just kind of pushing those fibers in closer together. It doesn't mean that all is lost. There's actually a way that you can remove this dent if not all of it, most of it and all you're going to need is a wet paper towel and any household iron. I mean, we already used a coffee grinder. Might as well use an iron too. So, you're just going to Place your paper towel over the dent and iron it out. Just like you would a wrinkle from your favorite shirt. Now I'm not going to lie and try and tell you that it's disappeared completely because a lot of times it won't but what this will do is reduce the dent by a good amount. I mean that's probably 90% less than what it was and I just barely hit it with a little sandpaper. I come over this with a power sander and it's going to disappear 100 percent.

13K views · 626 reactions | Avoid this plywood tip headache! When I returned to the lumber section of my hardware store, I noticed a different type of plywood than what I had bought weeks earlier for building drawers. It looked similar at first, but there were big differences. I had previously purchased a 1/2-inch birch plywood with 5 plies - 2 outer veneers and 3 core layers, perfect for structural applications, furniture, and cabinetry. But then I saw a full sheet of 1/2-inch birch plywood with only 3 plies at a fraction of the cost (2x the price but 4x more wood). While it could be used for cabinets, I don’t think it has the same strength as the 5-ply, though it might work for wall paneling, partitions, or maybe where bending is required. When choosing plywood, appearance matters. Grade A has minimal imperfections - less chips, splits, knots, voids, while B or C grades, often found here, work fine for hidden cabinet work. But always check the core. I hope this tip helps! | Sanju Patel | DIY from a Dad | buildtomade · Original audio

This is not safety advice, this is just an example of things that can be done on site to stay safe and efficient.
