AWESOME JIG TO CUT PRECISE, REPEATABLE THIN STRIPS | MY THIN STRIP JIG

- Everytime i cut thin strips on the table saw, a feel a bit uncomfortable. Because of the small space between the blade and the fence, it's not easy to guide the wood piece thru the saw. So i came up with this Thin Strip Jig. My Thin Strip Jig is different to all the other jig's out there. I wanted that the jig guides the to cut piece thru the whole process. So i made my jig with a hold down feature. It is awesome how easy this jig is in use and incredible how repeatable the thin strips are. I hope you like my solution to this problem.
Let me know in the comment what do you think about it.

This is the only "thin strip jig" I've seen that does not require re-positioning the ripping fence for each successive cut--which makes it more accurate and precise. Craftsmanship is easy. Simple and elegant ideas are hard to find.
Thank you so much.
Easily the best thin strip jig I've seen - the ability to press down to control the strip is brilliant. Looks like I have another jig to make.
This is by far the best Thin Strip Jig I have seen. It also holds the cut piece off in a safe postion with no kick back. Great Job! This would be great for boxes and small projects that require edging.
I have been looking at a lot of videos regarding making a thin strip jig. This is definitely the one I will make. Thank you.
The simpler the jig design that delivers is the most elegant.
You know when the shop has flip vise under the bench.. it’s going to be a good video
😄
Amazing jig - outstanding repeatable accuracy!!!
Perfect solution. I was amazed how even with 24 teeth rip blade the cut is clean and with almost none blade marks. Impressive, sir!
Ive been looking for something like this for a long time, to make consistent thickness splines for picture frames. You my friend are a godsend. Thank you so much.
This is brilliant. I’ve been looking for a solution like this for two years.
Outstanding! At first, I thought this jig was a bit of overkill when I had to cut a bunch of strips for some slatted shelves. Decided to go ahead and build it anyhow. Sure glad I did. Easy to build from scraps lying around and it enabled me to cut hundreds of strips very quickly, very safely, and very uniformely - I decided to make all my closet shelves slatted. The only drawback is that it enables me to wear out my saw blade twice as fast ;-)
Safe. Smart. Effective. Wonderful. Thanks a lot.
A very nice solution to the problem of cutting thin strips. I am in the process of building it, and I've made some small modifications. I'm using threaded inserts with knurled knobs instead of cut-off screws and wingnuts. Also, when cutting very thin strips that would cut into the hold-down I screw in a nut between the hold-down and the base, which moves the hold-down away from the blade so it does not get cut. Thanks again for a very nice jig!
I could have used that jig so many times. Subbed.
Brillant. You earned my subscription on this, the very first video of yours I have seen. Looking forward to seeing the rest of them!
Thank you so much.
You my friend are a genius, I'm new to hobby woodworking and your videos are so helpful and inspiring, please keep up the good work I enjoy your channel so much 🏴
Thanks man, simple and effective. 👍
Well done. Once set up, you could go on indefinitely making the same cut... Brilliant!
I made this jig a couple of days ago. Cut some edge banding. It works like a charm. Really innovative idea I not seen before. Thanks for the inspiration.
I am happy if someone recreates my projects and is satisfied with the function. That is great praise for me and my work.
Great build. I have to make one soon.
Thanks for sharing
Absolutely amazing. Thank you.
What a wonderful idea and nicely made video. This is the first time I have seen a video of your and have subscribed straightaway! Thank you
Definitely on my “To do” list. Thank you. 👍
I'm glad if you like it.
This is pure genius and I will be putting this on my list of jigs to make. Thank you very much for posting this video.
Thanks. I'm glad if you like it.
Appraise it again.
Nice jig, would be perfect for cutting kumiko strips! Thanks for the video!
Looks good! And safe to use, this one will be my choice for kumiko strips.tnx for the effort!
I think we might have a winner for the best thin strip jig.
Nice. Simplicity + functionality = elegance.
Thanks.
Absolutely brilliant! I must make one for myself.
I like yours because we don't have to move the fence each time.
Cheers
Very nice! Looks pretty safe..Great idea👍👍
Just made your thin strip jig. I made a few changes because of my table saw. It works really well. I’ve made a few other designs and they don’t work as well as yours.
Awesome...Loved it. I need to make one!. Thanks for the video !
I made a similar but simpler jig for this same task years ago, but kudos to you for sharing yours.
You didn't share yours. so we can't compare!
Love your glue spreading jig.
Thank you. Great idea. I’ll use this. Very helpful.
Thanks
Swiss precision in action on these strips 👍
Awesome jig. Thank you.
좋은 아이디어 입니다.
참고해서 만들어야겠습니다.
좋은 비디오 감사합니다.
감사합니다. 당신이 그것을 좋아하면 기쁘다.
Much better than having to reset the fence with each pass.
Very slick sir. Great vid
Nicely done!
Very impressed by the way you managed to route the slots in the MDF!
Thank you. So far as I know, this is the only way to do it with such a small piece.
I gave this video a thumbs up. I think it's great for ripping kumiko strips safely
Thanks. That's agood use for this jig. Maybe i'll try to do kumiko in the future.
This why I'm here. Trying to get consistent Kumiko strips has been frustrating. This looks great.
outstanding!!!!
what a great idea
excellent jig well done.
I like it - I am thinking about starting some kumiko and this will be nice
Nice jig. You can also make one of those to cut small wedges.
It also might be safer to use that on your sled.
well done !
Smart idea
Precision cutting there.Surely on my to do list.
Well done!!!!
Thanks
VERY well done! !! !!!
Thank you.
This is the best Thin Strip Jig I have come across so far. Most of the others, you need to adjust the fence each time. As far as production time and consistency, your jig is on the money mate! This is going on my 'project list'.
All the best from OZ mate.
2 hour build from the scrape bin,max. Get on it. Best simplest solution seen so far.
Thank you Machete Bushcraft Australia
Thank you.
interesting idea, will have to try, cheers
Best one on the net.
Very impressive! 👍🏻
Thanks
that is awesome, thanks for sharing
This is the Best jig that i look
Great video...Thank you and I subscribed...cheers rr Normandy, Fra.
thanks for sharing. What table saw do you recommend for thin pieces ? I m planning to saw to 6mm.
Fix the jig firmly at the middle of the fence, centred alongside the blade. You could slide longer lengths in through the jig's guide. The wood would still be held down firmly on three sides (including from above) at the point where the blades is cutting. This preserves the full accuracy and cleanness of cut. It allows much longer strips to be cut accurately.
Please say " get to the choppa" before you go to the miter saw. LOL
Btw this is the jig I've been needing. Thank you.
Thanks for making this video. I'm considering making myself a thin strip jig and this is an interesting design. I was so pleased you included practice runs with the jig and the work piece before you used it. That's a smart and safe practice! Don't forget your riving knife, too.
Thanks.
GREAT!
Great idea. Would this be better or safer or work with a riving knife? Thanks.
I built this jig and it works flawlessly in cutting 1/16” (1.6mm) crossband inlay strips. I used 1/4” MDF for the hold-down and a 1/16” thin-kerf saw blade. This allows me to bury the blade in the hold-down and thus maintain pressure on both the strip and the remaining cut-off piece through the entire cut.
I also installed a carriage bolt and locknut through both the fixed and hinged sections. This limits the upward travel of the hinge and allows the jig to be lifted without it opening up.
It would be really nice to have a tight zero clearance insert to make very small pieces that won't possibly get hung up between the blade. Nice video. Thanks for the suggestion.
Thanks
The best thin rip jig on CZcams for short stock. Looks like even thinner cuts would be possible using a thin plastic for the adjustable hold down, eh?
Dude yes. I can make miter splines as well as Kumiko pieces with this.
Fantastic. How long of a strip can you cut with this jig before it gets unsafe?
Nice simple design. If I can offer a suggestion please show your design in use at the beginning of your video and then how to make it.
Zehr gut!!!
Hi, ich glaube, du verstehst mich. Das ist die bisher beste Dünnstreifenschneidevorrichtung. Mein Problem ist sonst immer, dass das Werkstück nach oben gedrückt wird. Mit deiner Lösung sollte das nicht mehr passieren. Klasse.
Simples e eficiente. Valeu.
obrigado
I am so happy with this jig! I make cutting boards and am always hesitant to make thin strips for them. I saw this youtube video a while back and it was always on my mind when cutting thin strips. Well, I finally made it and it is awesome! Thank you so much for this video and plan. It's much appreciated! (my fingers thank you!)
I think your idea is very ingenious and effective. i need to cut thin strips, about 3 mm, but very long, 800 mm, do you think a jig of that size would be a good idea?
This is brilliant. I am making one. It appears to make strips that are exactly the same thickness, never achieved by moving the fence. I am planning to use a strip of hard plastic as a hold down that will be thinner than the MDF and more durable. I should allow fairly thin strips to be made.
Also any one doing this should make a zero clearance insert.
Thank you.
Very nice 👍😀
I'm wondering about the little push piece at the back of the jig. Would there be a problem if it was taller than the stock and extending out past the blade to add extra stability?
me encanta tus proyectos. pero porque amigo no dejas ni un plano de los proyectos que haces?
Exellent!!! Thank You eh... Ü
Thanks. I'm glad if you like it.
Don't get me wrong this is a great idea... but frankly I am not sure why this is much better than the usual technique of laying a sacrificial board down flat next to the fence and sliding the piece to be cut along that. I've been doing this for years and get precise, repeatable thin strips each time.
Thank you for a great little video. Looks like it works just ask!
Thanks
“Come wit me if you want live”…. LOL
Excellent design and execution! Great idea! Just subscribed..
Cheers from London 👍🏴🇬🇧
If you make an adjustment on the back corner that's against the fence (in order to skew the jig slightly) it can also make door shims :)
That's a good idea.
Too cool for school
Next video, I would absolutely lose it if you cried out, "Get to the Choppa!"
Lmao!
Nonetheless, great video mate!
Brilliant. And safe. Just create different width mdf's . 😁. Thnx
Hello ISBI, I have been searching for something like this for quite a while. You have earned a "Subscribe" from me - and I don't give out many of those! Any chance you have plans for this jig? I would really like to have something I could print and take to the shop. Great idea and execution. I will be making one asap.
I need one of these to cut 3" wide strips 1/4 " thick.
Nice jig. Good job using your hand to focus the camera on those close ups.
Thank you.
A nice improvement of this jig. Ilike it 👍🏻
Thank you
That is cool, but which would give better results, a table saw or bandsaw? Do you have a similar jig for a bandsaw by chance? ;) I would think a bandsaw would waste less wood due to thinner blades, but it depends on what you have to use of course.
The only downside is that you can only cut relatively short strips with it. The more conventional design where you set a fence behind the blade opposite the main fence allows you to cut longer strips, though you have to move the main fence every strip.
can you plz tell me why have you use 2 blades in reverse direction?
Do you sell plans for this?
Great idea. Are there any plans in the works to be made available?
Thanks.
I have to make plans.
@@ISIMPLYBUILTIT No you don't. Basic concept, nicely and simply executed, scrap bin build. Basic standard material sheet good thickness. Video and the use of the stop button gives plenty enough detail. Those who want plans are the type that want everything handed to them, intellectual laziness in the extreme. Don't waste time catering to the types and carry on with the next project. Don't get caught up with these types.
If they have to have plans to execute such a basic concept with standard materials then they should not be allowed to handle the simplest of power tools. If they have to ask then it is most probable they will never build the jig anyway and you have wasted your efforts.
Have you thought about making the width of the ripped piece variable by using threaded inserts in the bottom piece, a hole in the top piece? Just an idea in evolving...
