How to Use Your Tools!

Ran into Jeff at our local home depot last weekend. He was kind enough to stop ask some questions and share some information and suggestions for my DIY project. He's a great Canadian. Thanks Jeff

"No danger here. We're showing big boy techniques here." I love this guy. I remodeled my whole bathroom by watching your videos.

I feel like this was a series of power tools for dummies. I learned a lot with this video! Thank you for teaching dummies like me new tricks!

I’m 52, live in an old house, no money and a wife I love. Can’t afford to pay craftsfolk or trades to renovate house. Just trying to learn and get confidence to try myself. Content like this is brilliant, thank you and appreciate that your sharing your skill and knowledge 👏🏻👍

Great shout out to Leah at See Jane Drill!! She is amazing!!!

I'm about ready to start calling Jeff, Uncle Jeff. I've learned so much from him, he's starting to feel like family.

I love when YouTubers give props to other YouTubers. Builds a solid community. Love it

@DewaltTv please sponsor this man! He’s helped me more times than I can count! If any deserves a sponsor from you it him

You should do a video on the speed square. So much you can do with that thing, and I've seen a few videos on it, but no one explains and demonstrates quite like you. Mark on, Sharpie man.

As someone who struggles cutting in a straight line, this is fantastic!

I love all the diy project videos, but this one is invaluable. Once upon a time folks might have learned some of this from holding 2x4s for grandpa or dad. Now I have my girls next to me and realize they know nothing about power tool basics because we have barely made anything from scratch. Thank you SO much for this video! It is an excellent place for someone to start!

I really hope you're making over a million bucks a year off of these youtube videos. You deserve every penny, you're awesome.

Yes! See Jane Drill is awesome! She has a simple way of effectively explaining how to do things, like Jeff does. I learned how to texture a ceiling to cover up new air returns that saved my bacon. Anyway, great video! Nice to know how to use my tools the correct way now.

LMFAO "If the blade gets stuck in the 2x4 you are cutting its holding up your house."

Good morning Jeff , I am sure you are aware of the fact that you are really on top of your game . There are lots of people who have the skill set, but have the ability to teach someone else and have patience is much more than that . You seriously have it and besides that your personality and your melody making skills are the toppings . I am remodeling my townhouse and I will give you at least 50 percent credit for it . Everybody can do a job but the little nuances make the difference . Oh yeah , Thanks a lot for making the TEXAS STRONG video . I literally watch your videos everyday and rerun it . Thanks again .

I just cant express enough how great these videos are. Thank you Jeff for your knowledge and your time in making these videos for the DIYer like myself. I greatly appreciate you and your team. Cheers from NJ.

"measure once, cut twice" Jeff 2021 31:49

I often use the phrase "measure twice, cut once". My next door neighbor, who did needlework, brought me a framed cross stitch with the saying for my workshop. Only she added a line in smaller text below which was "go get new board". It still makes me laugh and it still hangs in my workshop almost 30 years later.

As a new home owner this year, I love these kinds of videos. My dad passed away when I was in my early 20's so I don't have him around to show me this stuff anymore. I appreciate you taking the time to teach and making it so easy to understand!

I grew up in England using the imperial measurement. Then the government decided to come in line with Europe and use the metric system. It took a while to get used to it, but now I find it so easy because everything is divided by ten. Does away with 12 inches. 3 feet. Etc.
