You got a subscription for the pause reaction to the “A Holes” 😂
This recent set of videos you have been doing are great. Very informative. Keep them coming.
Thank you for keeping your videos to tips and tricks, jigs, etc. Learning a lot. Too many tool influence videos nowadays.
Great share of purchasible jig, even better tip on how to adapt it for discs instead of holes.
If you're looking for A-holes you've come to the right place my friend! 😆
Great overview Jodee. I love the jasper jigs. They've been around for years and are a very good value for what they do. 👍
Beautiful coasters btw.
Pretty nice jig indeed, dude! Thanks! 😃
The 3 block idea is brilliant!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Another quality and informative film from you, thanks very much for sharing it with us! 👏👍😀
Looks to be a great circle jig, thanks.
PRO TIP: when looking for the "A: holes, usually I look in the comment section! !! !!! That's where the people who "know it all" post.
@Sebastopolmark That's what I was going to say originally, but I figured I've stirred the pot enough lately. 😂
I have the same router and I'm 100% sure I know where the A holes are lol I like that jig plus what you did with the doubled sides tape love it man. Had one of those why didn't I think of that moments. Thanks for sharing jig and tape idea
Great vid! Picked up the 290!
Beautiful, no sense in reinventing the wheel. Perfect jig. I've got a great use(s) for it. Ordering one as soon as I get through typing. Thanks, Jodee.
You are absolutely my favorite channel. Very inspirational…
@Raymond Robitaille Thank you.
Great recommendation, dude. I agree that sometimes, it's just smarter to buy a thing than make a custom, one-off jig, etc. Love the humor in this one, and to be honest, I'd watch a video of you building a router.
Short and to the point, I like.
Great looking little template. And "looking for the A-holes"....I love it~!! 😀
Great fix to avoid central pin holes.
Thanks. I have 2 Jasper jigs at the moment for my larger routers. I note that the model 290 is to fit the fixed base trim routers. I have Ryobi R18TR2 ( I believe the US equivalent is P601)
I'm an a hole, and I thought that was hilarious! Another A+ video man!
Great Video. Handy information.
It's certainly well thought out. Perfectly functional too. At $46 it's a bit pricy. A little bit limited by the 18 inch dia. 24 inch would be better. Still it looks like a well made piece of equipment. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.
I wish more people understood your initial comment....
Sometimes for accuracy and/or time - buying the best option
And everyone is balancing time/money/accuracy differently
Great stuff as always!
I’ve been wanting to make one of these and I need to be honest with myself that it just isn’t going to happen, and then I just need to suck it up and buy one. Great tips, thank you!
Very Good, I own one, but have yet to use it. Looking forward to making some circles. Thanks
As usual excellent info many thanks
Great Job!
You are awesome. Great info!
I LOLed when you identified the holes you were looking for.
Thanks!
I have this jig, it works as advertised.
Hahahaha.. that's just the chuckle I needed today.
"I could've made my router too, but I didn't, and you didn't either" lmao, priceless! Thanks for the ideas sir!
thanks
Awesome... Your videos have really helped me, as a new woodworker. I have a question.... I don't have a dado blade and want to cut several 1/4 inch cuts in preparation for the dovetail bit for the microjig clamp system. Would it be OK to use two 1/8 inch blades on my table saw to it them? Thank you for your advice. Larry
@0:43 A Holes. Of course LOL But looks super interesting. Thanks for the info.
“The look” (00:47) 😂🤣😂
Did you have to get extra long router bits to compensate for the thickness of the blocks used to avoid drilling a hole in the finish piece? Brilliant by the way…👍 I’ll be stealing that idea
I would be very grateful if you would advise me on what's the difference between the DeWalt DWE600 router and the DeWalt D26200 router? Thank you in advance for responding to my question.
Nice video! I did a project last month where I needed two rings cut out of alder wood, and I just used a piece of plywood with the router hole and two pivot holes drilled in it. But I can see the utility of the pre-cut and pre-drilled template if I'm going to be doing a lot of similar work using a range of different radii. And yes, double-sided tape on the underside of the work piece works great, but I suggest thinking carefully about where to put the tape such that the router bit won't be chewing up a lot of it on through-cuts. The tape can gum up the bit in a hurry.
Will it fit my Ridgid 18V seamlessly??
ottimo
What kind of bit did you use for the groove?
I hope when I get it I'll be looking for the "B" holes LOL!
The pregnant pause over the a-holes comment was all it took :)
I've got one of these, but the problem i have is that all of the 5 inch holes are covered up by my router's base. I can't get a pin in more than the thickness of the jig, and that doesn't feel secure. Wondering if i got the wrong size jig maybe. It's a full size skil router.
Are the A-holes any better or worse than the B-holes? Asking for a friend.
my trim router doesn't have a plunge base :( Any thoughts on how to route circles anyway?
I generally consider that max bit depth per pass should not be more than 1/2 of the bit diameter.
Can you do a follow on for making smaller holes with the jig - specifically where the pin overlaps with the base itself and you can't access those holes? I have the same jig and can't use like anything around 3"...
@Andy Peters Have you tried rotating the jig 180 degrees?
@@InspireWoodcraft flipping upside down means the baseplate holes no longer line up (on a Bosch 1617), plus the screw holes are countersunk.
I was able to make it work using a cut off nail instead of the pin.
Nice, the metric-version you get in Germany for !!! 90€ ! 😳
Do you really need to use the centering cone when reinstalling the sub base? Don't the screws align the base automatically?
They do not - all router manuals I looked at specifically ask for centering cone.
@Joseph Worley The only router that I personally have used that doesn't require a centering device is my Festool OF1400. That base has two milled location pins so that it can only go together in one position. If you have a couple of minutes, I went over a couple of other alternatives in this video: czcams.com/video/pU2QlL2NjqA/video.html Hope it helps.
@@InspireWoodcraft thanks
Do you have plans available to build one? 🙂
@ytbillybob 😂
A holes. A holes. Yep. Jasper guys could have used numbers or any other symbol system. I suspect that someone there with the authority to make the call had a certain kind of sense of humor. Nice jig.
Good common sense statement.Some makers spend more time making jigs than making projects
Talk to a milling machine operator. Often 80% of the time is taken making jigs, clamping to them, and establishing reference. That is the price of accuracy.
LMAO!!!😅🤣😅🤣 "A Hole"
One place you can find it, Amazon
Jasper 280 circle cutter jig = $45.99 + tax
Ain't that the truth, always having to work with the a-holes 🤣🤣🤣
THEE"A" hole? Sorry I just could not pass that down. You didn't mention the other routers that would fit it nor where we can purchase the jig. The jig makes sense to me because it seems every time we have a outdoor party the coasters come up missing. Either make more coasters or new friends!
0:43 *"bro why you gotta look at us T.T"*
A holes are easy to spot. They always reveal themselves. 😂
Somebody needs to invent a circle cutting jig that is not 'tidally locked', to use a scientific term, to the center. I want to keep my hands at 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock during the entire rotation. This would be more comfortable, would prevent the cord from getting twisted and in theory, would be safer, and produce a better cut since you don't have to take your hands of the router at any time. One of you smart engineers needs to get on that. (edit: removed the clock reference since youtube thought I was referring to a timestamp)
See Olob Iksnagol comment/link.
@@panos3051 Thank you for the reference!
Three problems with this jig-
- you have to bolt the router to the jig, and use another jig to do it (!)
- you have to rely on a measurement for the radius, rather than see exactly where it will go.
- the router is fixed to the jig, so rotates with it, so hose and cable get twisted and you have to keep changing your grip.
Can you avoid all of these problems? Yes- see czcams.com/video/utPjymzT6_s/video.html
I watch and appreciate your channel very much, so thanks for this one. I have a Jasper circle jig and it works well, but like most you have to watch the cord for tangling. That's why I took the time and made this one czcams.com/video/YQdNaJFDUR0/video.html. Marius's jig which he made with a friend works very well, yes it takes some time to make but it was definitely worth it for me.
@Olob Iksnagol That's one of the many reasons that I went cordless! I originally tried using a bushing in the centering hole in the Jasper jig, but it's just slightly the wrong size. That's a great jig that he built, except for having to measure each time.
Nice thing, but not available in metric...
I guess I'm an A - Hole too 😂 (I have a Dewalt Router)
I think they put DeWalt on the A-hole intentionally
I want to make things. The things I want to make are usually not jigs.
