    Love these vids. You can put pegs in either corner or anywhere equidistant from center, place on beam, twist so both pegs hit, BOOM, perfect center every time with no time lost adjusting.

      The Samarai just learned a new move! Great idea, though you'd still have to make sure you always maintained pressure on those pins during the cut.

    • @adrianmack3
      @adrianmack3 Před 4 lety +1

      @@whoDatBeDare it would work just fine if you secure some boards on both sides of the piece to extend past the edge so you have the reference extend past the part.

    New Student to the channel. I have been researching Slab Jigs for leveling and Your jig set up opens up new thoughts and ideas. I have always believed in the old masters way of no screw type building, use tenons and mortise to build with. And other joinery of old. Thank you for sharing.

    Nice! I was using my Dremel routing small work, a mortise for 2X4, that was made too rough with the circular saw. So I used the Dremel with the small attachment for small Dremel router bit (1/8") to smooth the bottom of the mortise, removing the eneven lines of my saw. It was almost perfect when I lost stability with the Dremet hold perpendicular, using a small thin plank as a support... Finally I concluded that I should use a 8"x8" sheet of plexiglass to support and stabilise the Dremel. So another project added in the corner of my mind. Then I saw this video, where you do the same with a real router! I was so glad that you confirm my idea was not crazy!
    Great video, tahnk you to share this great tip!

    Awesome, will do this jig with my router for sure. Had a good idea to make circular or semicircular routed edges, you put one screw to the plexiglass and rotate around the fixed axis.

  • @igenr8stuff
    @igenr8stuff Před 6 lety +51

    Just a thought for setting the fence(s)... When doing the original layout on the Plexiglas, find the center, then using a pair of dividers, scribe multiple concentric circles, say 1/4" or 5mm apart. Now you have permanent quick reference lines a known distance from the center of the router bit.

    • @danielkeating4684
      @danielkeating4684 Před 6 lety +1

      Great idea. If you had access to a laser cutter you could make that look really awesome.

    • @surlycanadian
      @surlycanadian Před 6 lety +4

      You would have to do al lot of them though and dye them different colors for different bit diameters, because concentric circles from the center of the bit doesn't tell you much if you switch from a 3/4" diameter bit to a 3/8" diameter bit. You have to measure from the outermost edge of the bit when setting your fence, so if you want a groove an inch from the edge, you have to know where an inch from the outermost part of your bit is; you wouldn't measure that from the center point. But I suppose if you own only 1/2" diameter bits or only 3/4" diameter bits, then you could make those lines based off the outer radius of the bit and then make your incremental lines and as long as you only ever used bits with the same diameter, then it'll work.Your other option if you have multiple diameter sized bits is you make a base for each of your regular sizes and put in those concentric circles like I mention in the previous paragraph. And at $10 bucks or so a pop, that's not a bad idea, if you make 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 5/8", 3/4" and 1". $60 or so bucks and they're flat so they wont take up much space when not in use.I'd like to figure out a way to use aluminium extrusion for the fences. I think the way you'd do that is using the concentric circles as a ruler and having slotted holes in case your drilled hole didn't line up perfectly with the t-bolt channel in the extrusion. Lots of possibilities though.

    • @tomcummings3471
      @tomcummings3471 Před 6 lety +9

      Yeah bit diameter, but quick maths in the ol' bean, add bit radius to desired figure and bob's ur auntie, go-to adjusted figure upon pre-scribed concentric circles

    • @tomcummings3471
      @tomcummings3471 Před 6 lety

      I may even be tempted to scribe every eighth inch and just eyeball the sixteenths/thirty-seconds

    • @igenr8stuff
      @igenr8stuff Před 6 lety +9

      Cole Bouchard you missed the point. The center of the bit is the key reference point.

    On the topic of PPE, the cartridge type respirator filters are generally only for vapors unless otherwise marked. Particulate matter (dust) should be filtered out with filters designed for the particle size. It's a good idea to keep a set of both in the shop and note, they can stack so you get both protections if your project calls for it.

  • @thomasarussellsr
    @thomasarussellsr Před 6 lety

    Nice multi-use jig. You can even attach a follower to route a complex curve, as in for a gooseneck moulding or such. Excelent jig base, Jessie. Thanks for the idea builder.
    You could even use double stick tape to attach a strip for tilting the router if you need to.

    screw two guides in reverse onto the upside of your plastic board as extensions and the width of the board you route can be way wider.
    you could add a plastic seat, wheels and a differential to it and there you go-kart
    all these possibilites are givin me a woodpecker

  • @scarmenl
    @scarmenl Před 6 lety +23

    I have been building jigs like that for years. Square one's, round one's and on. The way to improve your jig is to route a 3/8 inch strip just in from where you have drilled your holes. Do one on each side so the router orients best. Take your 2x4 fence and make it smaller so you can use it on plywoods as well. Then add some of that plastic to the face of the fence. Drill holes in your fence facing upward. epoxy threaded rod into those holes. Then get a some wing nuts and you will have a jig that is faster to setup and more simple to use. It will glide better with the plastic faces on your fences as well. Takes a little more time up front but will save tons of time in the long haul. Cool video and great energy. Thanks.

    I love the way you deliver information, and I'd love if you did a video on common wood types, tips, and info on working them. For example, why is red cedar bad for chiseling? What would be a better example that is affordable to learn with?
    I've only really ever had access to whatever home depot has, as I live in Florida, and don't have much of a wood budget to blow on blind experimentation.
    Anyway, I love your videos and have already learned a lot from them.

      Better than rice is those desiccant packages you get in the box when you buy shoes, clothing, etc.
      That being said, your tool will be fine, betcha dollars to donuts. The electronics are now hermetically sealed in these quality tools. You can literally drop the tool in a bucket of water, freeze it, break the ice off, and it still works.

    You could get maybe 13 ~ 14 inch boards if you affix your guides across the corners. Nice jig, will def make myself one.
    Reading some of the questions in the comments it may be worth your while in making a router how-to video. After buying my first router it took me a while to work out how to accurately set cut plunge depth, accurate mortise locations, etc using gauges or accurately cut gauge-stock.
    Thanks for the great videos.

    Cool- by now you know if you set your fences diagonally you can go to around 14"- it's a router!
    Also I use a 4" x 6" piece of plexi on my trim router to predetermined set back for applying fences on larger pieces. You can too !
