Easy Angles. FREE PLANS | How To

Wooden Stars
Christmas Project
Woodworking
Free Plans
do not let wooden stars intimidate you! these stars only take two separate pieces each and two angles. You can avoid the table saw altogether if you purchase a few 1"x2"x8"s. The jig is simple to build and use. If you have watched and built the jig for my nesting tree videos, it has the same angles and can be used in place of this jig.
Using the walk through tutorial you can build an additional third star if desired.

Thank you guys!

One thing I noticed that will help with your pieces wandering away on you. You want to pull the saw out, drop it down and make the cut while pushing it inward.
Awesome video as always.

Ill be giving this a try! :) thanks!!

[@NirvanaWoodWorksbyJanie]

I have made & sold plenty of stars, specifically for Dallas Cowboys fans. The angles are definitely 54º AND 36º.
I've also accidentally made a star with 54º & 34º and let me tell you the star was completely off & catawampus since I was off by 2º, then multiply that over 5 corners. I realized my mistake once I went for a fit.
Great video, nonetheless!

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks Janie, not sure how the 90 degree angle thing didnt math-out when I made these 🤣 :P

You are the VOSS. keep the great videos and the free plans coming.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks buddy! Ive got quite a few more Christmas vids to shoot before December hits ;)

[@joyceboyle3206]

I'm liking it all.
The delivery is direct and easy to understand. Just the right amount of fun while still being short and sweet. Your skills are noticeably improving.
The projects are great for this beginner woodworker with limited tools (and funds).
And as a huge bonus your plans are free! I understand the value of them, but just starting out as i am, and times being what they are, its a big deal.
Thank you so much. Keep up the good work.

Joker, I saved the video. I have to go back to work 😂

Have a good day at work! :P thanks for the comment :)

[@jamesguerrieri949]

Note when using a sliding miter saw, you should pull it out pass your piece being cut, power up the blade and then drop the blade down and push through the work piece. This is know as a down cut. The way your using your saw is a climb cut and is a potential hazard to yourself. If the blade kicks, it will jump and come towards.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Good tip buddy :)

[@higgiepop158]

👍💯👍💯. Thank you 🙏🏻.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Those cool 4x4 candy canes are next! 🚲🍗🐈😺

[@WhosTheVoss]

[@jethmpsn1]

Your nail counter insert said 39, but did you include the three nails that were shot to make the jig?

[@WhosTheVoss]

Ill have to ask him next time :) but i think he was counting just the nails for the stars 🤩

[@alexreid4131]

Noice dude! 👍

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks buddy!!

[@AZbone]

Questions: what blade are you using on your miter saw? I notice you rarely have tear out. Also, what is the angle of the piece you were sliding between the two pieces when another together? Thanks for another great video. I’m going to make these tomorrow. I think I’m going to make 3 sizes

[@WhosTheVoss]

I use a spyder blade, they seem to stay sharp for a really long time. The board is a 54 degree extra cut, helps to keep my fingers away from the nailer :)

[@AZbone]

@@WhosTheVoss thank you!

[@howardmorrison716]

Shouldn't one angle be 36 rather than 34

[@WhosTheVoss]

Each joint needs to add up to 90° so all the sides meet together :)

[@Belg1970]

​@@WhosTheVossright so 34 and 54 don't add up to 90.

[@jeffvarady3590]

I just tried to make these. The angle needs to be 36 degrees not 34 degrees.....

[@richardmccann4815]

Who painted your blade black? Never saw that color on a blade before.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Its made by "Spyder" its one of my favorite blades :)

[@richardmccann4815]

Thanks. A bit scary hard to see.
