💡 Genius Adjustable Spacers For WOODWORKING and DIY

This video presents an adjustable spacer designed for woodworking and DIY projects. It can also be used for a range of different applications (i.e. keeping slab level for epoxy pour). See the follow up video to this one that demonstrates a magnetic spacer design: 🔨 LINKS TO TOOLS AND PRODUCTS I USE IN THIS VIDEO* 🔸 2 Part Epoxy, 5 Minute Set - 🔸 Precision Drill Guide For 3/8-Inch or 1/2-Inch Power Drills - 🔸 IRWIN Woodworking Vise, 6-1/2-Inch - 🔸 DEWALT 20V MAX Cordless Drill / Driver Kit, Brushless, 1/2-Inch, 110V charger version - 🔸 DEWALT 20V MAX XR Impact Driver, Brushless, 3-Speed, 1/4-Inch, Tool Only - 🔸 DEWALT Drill Bit Set / Screwdriver Set, 80-Piece - 🔸 DEWALT 10-Inch Table Saw, 32-1/2-Inch Rip Capacity, 110V model - 🔸 Makita LS1219L 12-Inch Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw with Laser, 110V model - 🔸 Stanley 30-Pc 1/4“ Drive SAE/Metric Bi-Material Socket Set - 🔸 CRAFTSMAN Adjustable Wrench - * I might receive a small commission on any purchases made through the affiliate links above. Thank you for supporting my channel while it grows 🙂 Ideas for Version 2 from viewer feedback (thanks!) - Make round top larger allowing more clamping surface (First) - Recessed tee nut (Frazer Brown, Bruce Lee) - Dowels in corners allowing base squares to be stackable (AF-McMuffin) - Recessed magnets allowing base squares to be stackable (Liam Yager) - Sandpaper or other grippy surface (Nicolas Racine) - Star knob for round top platform (Bruce Lee) - Laminate the head of the bolt between two thinner layers of MDF. This will eliminate the requirement for the nut holding the round top in place (Kiwi Workshop) - You could also add a thumbscrew from the side to lock the platform height. No need for a wrench an locknut then (Evan Hollander) Possible applications for this adjustable spacer design - Supporting timber at a specific height ready for assembly (first application in video) - Supporting pocket hole drawer bases at the correct height ready for assembly (second application in video) - Prevent vise racking (third application in video) - Supporting and leveling a slab ready for an epoxy resin pour (suggested by Kelly Chartrand in the video comments) - A clipped finish nail on the surface and you have a system to support piece for spraying or painting - Joe Solla For more details on this spacer design including dimensions, see my blog post at Note: Since making these I have learned that they are referred to as screw jacks in the machining world. ---------- Tags ---------- #woodworking #spacers #diy
