- A very simple jig allows anyone with a track saw or circular saw to copy an existing piece - exactly!

The graphical representation of why the cut width will be perfect was better than a thousand words.
Mind blowing idea innit?
This has been incredibly helpful! My school cancelled shop class, so I lost my access to a table saw. I almost bought a contractor/job site saw, but luckily, I found this video, and now I don't need the extra expense. Thank you!
Okay, I have watched EVERY woodworking video on CZcams and have never seen this method. I remember in engineering school how the simplest, most logical approach could often be the most elegant solution and this one is that. Great option for all shops, especially small ones. (Well, maybe not watched every video, but I have earned a Master of DIY from CZcams U.)
Nevermind the jigs etc, what interests me is the state of the tools etc in the background. This is a proper workshop with more than likely multiple jobs going on at the same time, hence stuff all over the place. In contrast to other CZcams "shops" where the tools are all on peg boards, racks of drills and more Festool boxes than Festool have in the warehouse, and not a pick of sawdust anywhere. I would show my bench if I could find it... Nice one Stuart.
I couldn't agree more. I think all us diy and beginners should just instantly boycott and video that opens up with a shot of a guy or girl standing in a workshop with the wall behind them adorned with green and white from floor to ceiling. Let's start a movement 👍
Haha noticed the Jacobs Crackers box under the shelf and thought "yup nice plastic bits box there with a lid!".
Someone was explaining how much they made from You Tube videos and said all you see in the Background is Advertising for that particular company and they receive a fee for it.

Never have gone to college, woodworking is self-taught. You pick up bad habits and lack a lot of tips, channels like yours help me improve myself and my works, thank you
A bit unfair. Many college courses give students the space and facilities they don't have at home. Nowadays, college students also follow CZcams videos which keeps the tutors on their toes (many of the tutors also make YT videos). It's a pattern for all trades. Eg our regular heating and gas engineer is one of the few tradespeople we know who has a son going into the trade - getting all his certificates and watching videos and talkign stuff through with his dad who is, as a result, learning new relevant stuff too. A few years ago, YT vids were often unhelpful, dangerous, bad sound, bad lighting, bad camera angles but now we have good bandwidth and high quality productions
@@cuebji think you misunderstood me, i meant it as me, i have never gone to college , im self taught,
@@MrFoxLoganwhile I did go to college, it wasn't for woodworking. I am both self and YT taught. I initially got into it as a hobby for gifts but am now selling cutting boards alongside my day job.
@@joshuaquick5511yeah youtube is great, although im self-taught CZcams has shown me some nasty habits I've been doing and also some safe shortcuts I should have been doing. You can always learn something new.
i am 80 y o and i just learned something that i will use almost daily when i go into my hobby shop----thanx rick great video
What a brilliant tip. I have had a circular saw for at least 20 odd years, and it was always a pain to do repeat cuts. I shall never look back now I'm armed with this tip. Has to be one of your best so far!! Thanks for sharing it Stuart!!!
New subscriber here due to this video alone. As people from the U.K are so fond of saying "this is absolutely brilliant." I have a feeling you are going to disappoint some sellers who make those really expensive guides that attach to your track saw to make repeatable cuts. This is every bit as accurate, and so much cheaper too! Thanks so much.
Just commented exactly that! 😃
Same here!
Leonardo DaVinci once said, "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication." This is the perfect example of that. What a great video, my friend. Thanks so much for sharing. Cheers!
That is bloody brilliant. So simple in design and use. But not as simple as me it seems ☺️
I love it. 👌🏻
Thanks Stuart I’ve been a joiner nearly all my life and I didn’t know that……. I’ve learnt something today. Thank you😊😊😊😊
Mind blowing. No measuring required. No expensive tiols required
12:54 This is genius. I have never seen any other videos like this super simple type of approach on making repeatable cuts
Thank You Stuart
Brilliant, this limits the need for a tablesaw in a smaller DIY workshop, and I can make good quality at the same time. Thanks for sharing
This video is very good. If you use the Kunlun tooth saw blade we developed, you can achieve higher results. The Kunlun tooth can make the upper and lower sides without chipping, bursting, or cracking.
I'm glad I discovered this channel. Very useful information.
Thanks, you just saved me money on a table saw. Great tip.
First of all, you could’ve started and finished with that two-sided circular saw guide. Never thought of that. But this method looks so clever. I’m going to have to find a reason to use it.
Brilliant. I like that I don't need to buy a table saw. I don't have the space and would rather spend my money on something else. Thanks
wtf did i just watch. such an amazing video explaining such an easy way to make repeatable cuts. Thanks man.
I just used this trick to build 16 drawer boxes! I can’t thank you enough for sharing this!!!😊
I love your ingenious to resolve situations without buying expensive (narcisist) accesories like TSO or UJK. Thanks for the video SIR.
Beautifully simple and elegant solution, I love it!
I have watched a myriad number of woodworking and diy videos during my learning journey so far and yours are consistently the most well explained and considered however I would venture that this is possibly one of the finest, simplest and ingenious solutions to a perennial problem most diyers face. I tip my cap to you sir, bravo!
Damn, I cannot like this video twice!
Thanks for the great advices!
Having a very small room and a very small jobsite tablesaw, i am constantly having a bad time doing crosscuts on longer boards. Things turn to shit when i try to make multiple shelfs, for example. This has to be the best solution on earth. And the simplest.
Why I did not see this before! Why I did not think about this??? I love you for this video ❤
Incredibly simple and SMART! thank you for posting this. Hello from Canada.
A cracking video! This method is pure gold and would have saved me a lot of headache last weekend. However, I have a similar project to complete this weekend and will use this tip guaranteed. Thank you for the superb content! Cheers 👍😎🇦🇺
This blows my mind. Now I can sell my cheap table saw, which the repeatable cut is the only reason I keep it. Thank you.
I thought that I was watching your channel for entertaining only, but your trick for repeating cuts with a track saw is fantastic.
You taught me something new. Thanks. Keep up 5he good work😊
I must say I’m blown away by this simple jig yet so accurate I’ll be using this jig the only problem is every time I use it I’ll think of you and I don’t know if that’s a good thing or bad thing lol
Genius. Simple but effective.
Brilliant video. This should be taught by all teachers. Thanks.
I need to set this up immediately at my shop!
This is genius, Stuart! Definitely going to use this tip!
So obvious when you've been shown. Another excellent tip Stuart. Thank you👍
Amazing video , where have you been ? if someone doesn't have a table saw this tip worth in gold.
Great video, very informative & basically explains the tips & tricks we've all been missing yet are staring us in the face. Cheers Stuart 👍
Proper Top Tip there Stuart - no-nonsense straight-forward and to the point - this will be really helpful to many makers although they may be disappointed that they don't "need" to buy more expensive kit !
Exact-e-mont ! 🤣
KISS! No, not a threat, the other thing… 🤪
A really simple, easy to follow explanation for a really simple easy to use jig, thank you for this invaluable tip, appreciated… 😘 👀
Great video Stuart !!! Woodworking can become a very expensive hobby if you go down the branded name route , so its great to see videos like this, thay shows people very afforadable methods of doing woodwork as woodwotking can be a very good way of relaxing and dealing with stress related issues, well done and thank you !!!! 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Seriously, thank you. This was exactly the solution to the problem I was trying to solve this morning. Worked perfectly.
Brilliant method, especially for anyone whose workshop has a limited footprint or who does not have a table saw or even a track saw. Thanks! 😊
That's AMAZING! Never tough of making something so simple and effective.
Excellent, so well explained. Stuart I’ve been watching your channel for ages, never disappoints and always entertaining. Thanks for all your work.
You really took your sweet time getting to the point. But man I'm sure glad I stuck here to the end. Great tip. Great work man. Keep it up!
Having watched this a few times now, I get it! So amazingly elegant. I've had to draw a diagram of my own setup for my circular saw. In my case I will use the wide side of the circular saw for a guide as I have trouble keeping it square when I use the thin side, but perhaps the thin side works anyway because the saw has so much to lean on?
Very clever idea Stuart. I made an MFT but in honesty I hate the holes as they jus5 allow dust to build up underneath and I’m forever losing screws or small parts through them. Def going to give this a try.
Looking cold in the workshop when you filmed this 🥶
That's very nice, Stuart! 👍👍👍
Now that's using ya swede! (as my grandfather used to say)
Thanks for passing this on Stuart, it's brilliant.
Topman, wish you had told me this last week.🤣
Yes, Stuart, I've learnt something - thank you. A seemingly simple idea and yet brilliant! Thanks for the video.
Ohhhhh, this one's gonna come in super useful, Stuart. Nicely done. Y'know the best bit is the simplicity of it, and yet I probably would never have thought of it until years down the line. I guess many of the best ideas are the simpler ones. Great vid!
Thanks for sharing this Tip !!
No need to buy a table saw, that is expensive and takes a lot of space.
Wow, I've seen people do this a lot but never actually tried it myself. Thanks that's very helpful
Brilliant! So obvious once you see it, so hard to figure out by myself.. And as always, a pleasure to watch!
Absolutely fantastic I have trouble learning but not with your channel, thank you so much.
That’s a really elegant, simple solution Stuart. Excellent!
As a new track saw owner I appreciate these videos to help me become more accurate.
I'd love a video on dust extraction management using multiple tools and types of shop vac options.
Great work, thanks!
Ooh it's a scribe! Excellent innovation! Straight to the top of the class!
Simple and genius. I have the same lidl tracksaw and have thought about making a diy MFT but haven't made the plunge as my projects are few and far between. This is a great solution... quick to produce with scraps, no need to measure, no worry about being square. Bookmarked this one.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. This tip is amazing and exactly what I'm looking for
So simple yet genius! Thanks
This is brilliant. I thank you so much.
I only have a circular saw-no room for a table saw. And I always struggled with figuring out how to make all the shelves the exact same length!
I’ve daydreamed adding a stop block to my crosscut jig, but this is SO much simpler.
Very clever. Simple yet effective. Thank you !!!
Brilliant .. I’ve been looking for something like this . Great explanations . Can’t say I understood totally but going to look at it again ❤️
This is absolutely brilliant. I wish I’d known about this when I was making a wardrobe with shelves. Simple but clever as well - a bit like myself without the clever bit 😅 thanks for sharing 👌🏻
So simple. So clever.
Simple and brilliant. Many thanks.
Great tip! Thank you!
Stuart....again so thorough with your explanations ! Thankyou mate.
Mind blown. Wish I knew this a long time ago! Thanks for sharing such a great tip
I was just looking for something like this. I´ve really enjoyed this video many thanks for sharing this information.
Thanks Stuart. Like all the best advice, very simple and you wonder why you didn't see it before! Keep up the great work and keep the videos coming.
Brilliant. Certainly adding that to the repertoire.
Great tips, thanks Stewart
That is awesome and perfect timing, it is gonna be so useful in my next upcoming project making loads of shelves. So simple as well. Just brilliant 👏👏👏👏👏
Great tip Stuart, I’ll be keeping that one in my back pocket for when I need it 👍
Great tip Stuart
I love this idea❤ simple but very clever
This is so simple why haven’t I ever used this? Thanks
Well done stuart, a top tip.
Excellent advice!!! Thank you sir.
Brilliant video.
Thank you for teaching me new skills
Thanks for that great tip I’m making some new kitchen units so will use this method. I’ve just bought the park side saw a bargain at £75 loving using it
What an amazing tip. Best one I've every seen! 👌🏾
That is so clever and so simple I’ll definitely be using this
Like it! I just completed my first cabinetry project. I made a simple jig for my circular saw to be used in combination with long straight edge like a level or similar. I ripped two small blocks of ply now to get the distance from outside of my saw bed to the blade on each side. I then used whichever one matched the directions I was cutting as a offset template to set the straight edge up parallel to a line and to run the saw against. With a thin pencil line this proved very accurate. I also used it to repeat cuts for multiple panels. Cut the first panel as above then lay this on top of the next, squaring up as many side as possible. Then use the offset template to setup the straight edge exactly along the cut line of the top panel. Cut along this line and the bottom panel (panels depending on depth limit of saw) will be near on exact to the top panel. Good enough for my diy project anyway! Love the videos!
As they say the simplest solution are always the Best! Hello Stuart Brilliant idea! Maybe Dragons Den would invest in it ?😂😂😂 We,re all in.
That is a gamechanger, thanks Stewart!!
Wow! You are really talented! I really enjoy this simple math application. So simple, so useful, so mathematic!
I have made some parallel guides (3d printer and curtain rail) for my tracksaw which are great for larger sheets but I use this for smaller items. I don’t have a lot of faith in measuring off the splinter guard so I tend to take my measurements off the other side of the track and add the known width of the track to the cut. Great video, thanks.
Great job on this video!
Thank you so much for sharing.
Brilliant tip - thankyou sir!
Great video! I use the same method
That’s genius!
I’ll certainly find a use for this on a future project!
I did the same thing with an off cut of mdf and an off cut of ply which is 8ft long. Thanks for the video.👍👍
