I've used other (10" saws) previously and was pretty surprised with the speed and cutting ability of this Dewalt saw.I have bolted mine to a table to minimize movement which I highly recommend.This is a Great saw czcams.com/users/postUgkxPeGkHOMe05FySypTOvYumxMn-xi39oRe with a light to see your cutting line (not a laser line).I'd recommend this saw fro anyone looking to upgrade from a 10" miter saw.
I am a woodworker and woodworking teacher. Most of my students suffer from autism spectrum disorder. Your approach demonstrates the beauty of woodworking as a way to learn problem-solving, geometry, and arithmetic in fun and natural ways. Your clarity, enthusiasm, simple techniques, and smile are wonderful guideposts in my teaching. Thank you, Tamara.
I'm new to woodworking having bought a 115-year old home in the rural PacNW and there is literally NO ONE within 150 miles that is skilled in finish carpentry let alone someone who understands the fine ART of woodworking. Anyway, so I've had to learn the craft and bought $$$$ worth of equipment and tools. I've watched a LOT of CZcams videos on a variety of subjects, how-to's and operational tutorials.
This is the 5th time I've received your video feed and every time-I get everything I need to know in the most concise, plain and direct manner over the hundreds of others I've slogged through. Some CZcamsrs are either long-winded, goofy/silly (for "entertainment" purposes), have obnoxious music in the background, or just don't/can't explain things as well.
Good job! I'm Subscribed!
I could listen to you all day long, your jigs and explanations are so precise and detailed,
I have made a few of your jigs and learned so much from you. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us! 👍💕
I hope you realize how many projects you have saved across the globe with your problem solving. Lots of amazing woodworkers out there, but you have a unique ability to explain a problem and how to solve it that makes sense to normal people. Thank you for your content.
That’s really so awesome to hear. I really hope these videos do help
A week or so ago I was trying to cut some 60 degree miters on my table saw (ok, actually 30 degrees, but you know what I mean). I have the Incra V27 miter gauge and I can swing it that far, but since I'm making the cut at the end of the fence, and not through it, it places the workpiece in a very precarious position on the edge of the table before making the cut. That night I was browsing CZcams and saw your video in my feed. Bam! The thumbnail was all I needed to see to know how to solve my problem.
My first idea was to cut a 30 degree wedge and then set my miter gauge to 30 degrees and I'd have my 60 degree cut. That proved to be difficult to handle safely. That's when I discovered that if I hold the workpiece perpendicular to the face of the miter gauge (set at 30 degrees), I'd get my desired 60 degree cut. I clamped a piece of 2x2 to the fence then clamped the workpiece to the 2x2 and I could safely push the workpiece through the blade and get my cut. With all the clamps, there was no shortage of handles to hold on to, to keep my hands away from the blade.
This is a great trick to have in your "bag of tricks". Just add an angle to your angle to get the unreachable angle.
It's nice seeing a woman wood working and offering instructional videos. Great job and thanks for sharing.
In difficult moments or on a particularly hard day, your content offers an escape. You bring bring me joy and I am grateful. Peace.
That’s so awesome to hear 👍
I'm building gates for around our ranch. Many of the angels for the cross supports are not standard. This is exactly what I needed. Thank you.
By the way, you are a great roll model for young girls and women. Thank you. 👍
I love the creative way you solve problems.
Your tutorials are so thorough, I am in awe of the amount of valuable info you put in your videos
Awesome to hear
Your new tool wall look pretty cool😊
Was watching your video on extreme angles with the big Dewalt until the unskippable commercial. Buzz kill! See ya!
one of the better, even best demo vids i have seen in a long time. clear explanation, simple and concise explained by a person who clearly knows her stuff.
Thanks for the simple, not over engineered solution.
I just needed the quick and dirty method. Talented and cute.
What an excellent jig! You are a genius!
Hi greetings from the caribbean.....great stuff...keep it up....
Thanks!
Not what I needed to know ... yet ingenious!
I haven't had too many occasions where I needed to cut such a drastic angle but I can see this is a great idea. Obviously more accurate than just holding the workpiece and trying to cut on a marked line. And a lot safer too.
i love the way you suddenly appear it's funny
Awesome video. Always a pleasure. Your instruction delivery relates to us amateurs who what to make stuff and never had a skill set. 👍
If during the build process - like before you glued on the fences - you struck an arc on the base you could use a suitable sized Forster bit to drill a few holes large enough to give you a view of your saw markings. Just a few holes would not compromise the stage but would allow you to more confidently set your angle. Then your score marks would provide a nice "double check" of your setup.
I've never seen the AC+PVA glue trick before. Very clever; thanks for the tip!
Glad it was helpful! I use it a ton
Very useful! The jig queen strikes again!!!
Haha glad you liked it!
I am building 4 Interment flag cases for my dad's funeral and tried a jig on the tablesaw to get the 22.5 for the triangles. Talk about a pain! Then I saw your video. I made your jig and boom! 22.5 perfect angles! Thank you so much!
I'm setting up my new compound miter saw and have been thinking about a safe way to cut angles over 60 degrees. I thought "someone must have done this before." and I was pleasantly surprised that your video was the first result when I searched for 'miter saw extreme angle'. Solid video and jig/clamp design. Thank you!
Ich mag diese Frau als Tischlerin, sie ist so gut und zugänglich, danke, auf jeden Fall wie
Hat’s off to you Tamar for yet another delightful mixture of libido and lumber. At 78 I’ve noticed a definite increase in the former and comparable decline in the latter. One of God’s little jokes on man.
😂😂😂
Thank you Tamar, for this terrific video! It's clear, simple, and easy to follow. I have been making picture frame molding for the inside of wainscotting, and I needed a number of pieces with one end at 66 1/2 degrees (and the other 23 1/2). I tried free handing it the quick & dirty way, with a 45 deg block like most videos show. Things were going fine, and then on the last cut I must have moved a tiny drop and the end of the molding just fragmented like an explosion. It really scared me although my hand was no where near it. I immediately stopped and made your jig, and it feels MUCH safer. I had also cut the vertical parts too tall for my clamps so I just cut off a bit off the top and corner once it was fully assembled. One thought on the clamping, I found that clamping to the fence tends to pull the molding upward. I might to clamp to the base, maybe using Milescraft 4009 Fence clamps to make it more secure. Again, advice to the reader: If you are trying to cut extreme angles without the jig, its really dangerous! It may be because of the extreme angle, but the blade teeth seem to be more likely to grab the piece and fling around, and its VERY hard to keep it flat and tight with your fingers so close to the blade. Make this jig and you'll be good. Thanks for maker my project safer!!
You are quickly becoming one of my favorite channels to watch. I set my alarm to let me know when you put out a new one so I don't miss anything. Thanks for sharing. I learn something new every time I watch you.
So awesome to hear! Thanks!
I like the way you started, with the simple jig providing rationale for a more flexible jig. Nice educational moment. Nifty result.
Glad you liked that!
Amazing video. So clear and simple. Thank you!!!!!
Great tip. This problem was kicking my butt yesterday. After watching your video I had a "duh" moment. Thanks again.
Awesome
Basic things look amazing when you explain it.
As always, lot of 👍 and tons of 💕.
Awesome to hear
Awesome! Great solution to cutting scarf joints for a guitar neck since the blade (mine) can only protrude 3.5" and the lumber will be greater/wider. Thanks!
Thank you for explaining this in a way that doesn't hurt my brain lol
That was SO SO simple and just brilliant! Your tips and information has really helped in improving my (sometimes sad, sometimes funny but always safe) woodworking skills. Thanks so much, keep up the great work !
Sometimes the answer is really simple! Ha
You really have a lot of practical advice and information on this channel, and I bet it helps a lot of people. Most of the people watching these videos don't have tons of experience, and you are able to explain what you're doing and why in very simple terms. Wow 656K subscribers this channel must be very successful, well deserved keep up the great content.
That was awesome. Love the way you explain complex things.
Glad you liked it!
JLR Workshop- Tamar, this is a great video, that will help with tighter angle cuts, and wider cuts as well with a little ingenuity. As far as cutting through the base, most sliding miter saws have a depth of cut adjustment screw to keep that from happening! Keep those vids coming!
Thanks again, you came in clutch. Quickest jig I’ve built and it works great!
Awesome
wow, this is great! just what I needed for a project I'm doing where I need to build a trapezoid and needed a jig. Thanks!!
I noticed you cut those angle reference lines on a sliding compound mitre saw. I have just a regular compound mitre saw. How would mark those reference lines on a regular compound mitre saw? I love how detailed you are in your instructions.
Whoa! That is a neat jig! Enjoyed your geometry approach…fond memories of high school math half a century ago. The greatest value of your videos for me are the techniques. The jig build had a ton of cool ideas. For example using your combination square on the underside to find the line for the brads on the 45 degree fence. Thanks for making these videos, I appreciate the time you invest.
Haha glad you liked it!
Amazing jig Tamar!! You are very talented!
☺️
The timing on this video is perfect. My son gave me what I thought would be an impossible project. He wants me to make LARGE wood versions of gamer dice that go from 4 sides (pyramid) 6, 8, 10, 12, and 20 sides. Some of the angles will be ridiculous! This jig will allow me to attempt the project with at least consistent result. Thank you!
Awesome! Glad it was helpful!
Love the jig. thank you.
Nice jig! I must admit I've always gone for quick and dirty versions of that jig (often dangerous too) so you've inspired me to build a jig like yours!
Any boatbuilders out there; you've just got yourself a scarphing jig!
Haha nice! Yes! Scrap joints for guitar necks was a popular suggestion too
XLN! Good explanation, even for us (me and my 8 years dougther). :) “saludos” from Mexico.
Nice
If you continue making guitars and decide to make your own neck, you can do the scarf joint for the headstock angle with this jig. It's a cool idea for this jig.
So simple but I had to watch your video...Thanks!
Two things: 1) great idea. 2) I like and appreciate the way you engineer your way from a problem to a solution. Well done.
Thanks for this video! Now I have tips for the chopper saw and the table saw.
Glad I could help!
Your videos never fail to impress. That’s a great jig with simple build method. Love the straight forward approach
Glad you liked it!
I love your ingenuity when creating these jigs! Your explanations are so easy to follow, too 😊
Awesome to hear! It’s all a jumbled mess in my head so it takes a bit to get out what I want to say 😂
@@3x3CustomTamar Well it comes across very well 😀
Just got my first saw and was scratching my head trying to figure out how to cut over 45 degrees. This tutorial was amazing. I know what I’m making next 😊
Gran herramienta nueva, muchas gracias por aportarnos tu conocimiento. Un gran abrazo.
Thank you Tamar, this is a good solution, so you can use the saw even more effectively.👍👍👍
Glad you liked it!
Excellent as usual Tamara, thank you. You didn’t point out that it also works as a zero clearance cut which is another great advantage to the jig. Exceptional, thank you
For sure! Glad you liked it
One of the BEST explanations on YT for corresponding angles. Great job.
Glad you think so!
I'll definitely build the part tomorrow. That fits perfectly, because I'll have to cut a lot of such angles for a project in the near future. Thank you for this trick.
Awesome. Glad it was helpful!
Wish you lived next door :) Great vid thank you.
Really smart solution. Thanks for the content
this is great! didn't realize there was such a simple upgrade from the quick n dirty. thanks
Haha yup! Glad you liked it!
Tamar, great video. I really appreciate the way you explain the process.
Awesome to hear! Thanks!
I confess that I usually use one-time-only guides for such acute angles. Your jig is much better. Thanks!
Yeah, they work! But now I’m happy I have this 👍
Great informative video. Detailed explanation is absolutely Phenomenal. Great teacher. Aloha
Glad you liked it!
Can we have more of this type of show I have a limited number of machines with limited range of use your ideas are always make them more useful and means I don't have to buy yet another machine but end up with better results. Thanks for your inspiration.
Glad you liked it!
THANKS FOR YOUR POSTING SAVED ME and my fingers today
Love this! Need it right now ♥️
Great idea and a handy jig to have........thanks Tamar!
Glad you like it!
This is exactly what I need. Thanks!
I used to have a set of triangles of varying degrees that would be added together and put against the back fence to make odd angles. But your jig is so much better and safer. My fingers and I thank you!
Glad you like it!
This is flipping genius. I can think of quite a few times when I needed to make a steeper cut than my saw could handle. Great job
Glad you like it!
That's a great idea! Love it. Simple and effective.
Glad you liked it!
Very crafty, I love ideas for developing new jigs. Nicely done.
Glad you liked it. Thanks!
Great idea this opens up a lot of possibilities. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you liked it!
I love this jig! Just one thought...would it be improved if the base is acrylic? Then you could see through it to the numbers on the saw.
Are you sure you weren’t a math teacher in the past? Great idea, like the Fetch app too!
Haha no. And my math teachers would laugh at that comment
Que gran idea de accesorio !será muy útil en mis próximos trabajos , Gracias por compartirlo , saludos

This is awesome! A few years ago when I was trying to build a guitar from scratched I needed to cut the scarf joint on the neck for the headstock and we ended up using a miter saw. It was super sketchy and thankfully came out okay, but I sure could have used a jig like this!
Would be perfect for that!
What a way of thinking, I like the way you create your own jigs to facilitate the work and inspire your followers to do the same with whatever they do, thanks Tamar.
Glad you like it 👍
Great jig. Love the thought process here and you presented very clearly. Will definitely build this for my miter.
Awesome
Tamar, that is a very well thought out jig! Well done!
Glad you liked it!
You are definitely the jig queen. If ever I need a jig I come here to see if you have done it already no need to recreate the wheel.
So awesome to hear
I wish all chop saw and table saws had a adjustment to cut all angle
Well, I NEEDED this for my own safety, so I built it. I’ll be using this jig on an upcoming project. After previously “free handing” an acute angle cut I could sense how dangerous that was, and clamping to my miter saw in those situations just didn’t seem feasible. So thankful that I subscribed and then found this great video. Still have all of my fingers.
So glad it’s useful for you!
Great job, thanks for your videos
Glad you like them thanks!
Superb jig and, as usual, an equally superb explanation of how to make it.
Awesome to hear! Glad you liked it!
Well, " FRIEND" THAT IS TOTALLY AWESOME. YOU ROCK GIRL.
Thank you for sharing your experience and design. I really appreciate it and think that you did an excellent job explaining it. Looking forward to more videos. This is going to be a great improvement over other designs. You certainly put a lot of thought into your designing jigs., 🙂
Great idea ;) I was looking for solution like that. Thx .!
A very good video! You must enjoy sharing and teaching. Your communications are clear and concise. Thank you!
Thanks!
Excellent tutorial
Wow, this amazing. Thanks for sharing the video. I guess this is the best mitre saw jig I've ever seen on CZcams. Simple but very practical. Just the way I like it.
I hope this video gets millions of views.
Glad you liked it!
Love the jig. You keep making good stuff. I've already borrowed several ideas from you.
Awesome to hear!
Will come in handy for those CBG necks. Thanks!
Yup! Awesome
Excellent, I really enjoyed this, most useful! Thanks Tamar
Glad you liked it!
Thank you so, so, so,….soooo much!
Good video, a simple solution to a problem and a safety concern.
Glad you liked it!
