- In this video, I walk through my wasteboard - and why I chose what I chose. I setup a file to cut some new clamps and show you those as well

Nylon bolts… my God it’s so simple and so smart! I can’t believe it.
Thanks for the best CNC tip that I have heard in a long time!
Thanks for watching - I excel at the simple things in life….
Perfect method for holding work pieces and saving bits. Thanks!
Thanks - it works very well!
Your clamps look great with the t-track! I love the nylon bolts. Thanks!!
Glad you like them!
Ever since I saw the video on 1F about the micro jig system I want to give it try.
With the dovetails? It looks like it could definitely work. I want to install a dedicated 90 degree stop fence on mine so I can just press my material up against that.
The nylon bolts are a fantastic idea. I ordered a couple of
8'= ¼-20 nylon threaded rods from McMaster-Carr about three years ago. I've been using it with diy wooden knobs and probably have 12 of the 16 feet leftover.
The bolts are probably a better idea.
I love the look of those wooden knobs. I didn’t even know they made 8 footers of nylon threaded rods. That’s awesome.
Thank you so much, I really enjoyed your video, I ordered the nylon bolts and I will visit your site on etsy tomorrow
Thank you so much!
Very helpful. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching - I really like these clamps, they work very well !
Thanks for this info!
Thanks for watching!
I haven't looked up the nylon bolts, but I think they would 3d print well if the oriention is good. I'd also suggest dog holes for locater pins. I wonder instead of t track if I could use a dovetail bit and just use 3d printed block rather than a head to help the MDF strength. Great video thankyou 😁 you have given me much to think about lol
There are so many options and to get your wasteboard perfect ! Dovetail slots are great and strong
I haven't done anything to my spoil board im gonna try and make dog holes and use 3/4 pvc. Or just do a L square to keep project alin for like multiple inlays and epoxys to help keep the z zero....... Im still a beginner...... Keep it up brother
I like that idea - I’ve seen that too. The pvc acts as a fence of sorts. Let me know how it work outs!
Will do...
Any tips on getting your t-track square and parallel to the CNC frame and each other?
Yes. Use the machine to do it for you. What I did was run a path around the outter most perimeter of my machine ( 32-1/4” x 32-1/4” I believe). Then you can either measure in , at 2 different points, from one line, connect your marks or once you figure out where you want your track, draw a line in your cad/cam program and use the smallest bit you have to draw the line for you. Then you will know exactly square and parallel from on side
Haven't set up my waste board yet, still trying to get Journeyman X-50 set up, then trying to decide on a dust collection system, any suggestions? Thanks for the file and the very informative video.
I have the stock dust boot. I would love the “pwn” dust boot because it comes out behind the router and that would make more sense because I have my dust collection hose in the back right corner. I just use an old shop vac with a dust deputy (cyclone separator) and it works very well!
Thanks for the info. Was thinking about going on etsy and looking for that dust boot that comes out the back. Appreciate your response
@@ronnorris1504 absolutely! I believe Onefinity sells it too
Always save your bits bois 😂🌽
Can you add a link for those nylon bolts ? I ordered some from Amazon but the ones I received were not all thread.
That’s odd - I just clicked the link and it sent me to the page with an all thread bolt. Maybe Amazon sent you the wrong ones?
@@SJSSawdust Thank you .... I didn't see the link when I used my phone. Not too handy I guess. Once I got on my computer I got the link. Love the idea. I also like the idea of a second wasteboard, will be using that too. Thanks again for getting back to me.
@@kelleyhudson2873 no problem! Thanks for watching!
Where did you get the nylon bolts---thanks
I’ve left links in the description below - thanks for watching!
Legal
i just brought the file off of esty. i ran one set and the problum that i having is the middle cut out is to large for the washers i got from the list. what size of end mill or u using .i used 1/4 em . love the file.
Hello, thanks for watching! As far as the file goes, the middle “slot” should be 1/4” or just larger to accommodate the 1/4” nylon bolts. The washers should be 1/2” OD. I just clicked all the links and they all seem to be working well.
@@SJSSawdust thank you for he info
@@SJSSawdust i used a 1/4 em mill for the middle slot and its way to wide for the 1/2 od washer .what could i have done wrong
@@josephlanglois8073 if I had to guess, I’d say that you set that slot to cut “outside” instead of “on” so instead of just doing basically one line, you doubled the width of the slot
...why not use nylon bolts in the threaded inserts ?
There’s 2 reasons - 1) I didn’t want to have to use a tool to tighten the clamps, the wing nut can be secured simply using your hands. Now, I suppose you could find a bolt head that IS a wing nut, eliminating the use of a tool but the it would have to be cut to the perfect length so you could use it with different material thicknesses and screw it into your threaded inserts. 2) I can leave the clamps on the t track and when I set in my new project material, just slide them around to make them fit - I don’t need to remove them each time after use
