10 Inexpensive Harbor Freight Tools You Need in Your Workshop
On these Reformation Woodshop videos, Marcus runs through ten tools and shop consumables that he recommends from Harbor Freight.
The key to getting real value from the Freight is knowing what products to pay attention to and what to avoid, so videos like these are always welcome. While Marcus is a woodworker, almost all of these suggestions apply to any workshop.
He covers consumables, like brushes, shop rags, and gloves, casters and rubber tires, tarps (for light-duty work only), toggle clamps, storage hooks, their tabletop belt sander, and outfeed stands.
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
