    Sorry everyone. I overlooked showing cutting the notch on the bottom of the push stick. I cut it on the Table saw 5/16th from bottom and stop shy 2-3/8 from the end, then finish it off with the band saw. It was a long day filming.

    William I learn so much from watching your videos. This one isn't so much about the push stick but about some of the clever techniques you use. Some examples include (1) mounting the jig saw upside-down, (2) using the drill press stop, and (3) using the router and table to make a smooth straight edge to connect the two circular areas.

    You also might want to update the verbiage to say "most people just go down to the home depot and get a sheet of construction grade plywood for about $2000" LOL

  • @outerbanksproductions_videos

    Your videos are amazing! I've watched your cross-cut sled video probably 10 times from start to finish. I've watched it when I was depressed because I like to see videos of people who love perfection. I see you as one of those people and I would love to work with you or take a class with you. I am the same way but am still working on achieving that status. I cheat often and get real close. nobody ever knows if I'm off on a build but I still want to raise the bar. I'm 51 and have been in the shop since I was 8. My life long neighbor was a master custom cabinet and counter top maker. He taught me that every line has 3 sides. A left, a right and a center. Same with a blade. I was 8 or 9 when I learned about the kerf. I know that inexpensive squares are not always 90 degrees. With that all being said, I've noticed that you use the expensive Starrett tools and so do I. You sometimes use an adjustable square, probably from the box store or local hardware store. What is your thought process with using an expensive square vs the $10.00 adjustable square that can be 89.8 degrees? It's kind of hard to believe you even own them. LOL!

    Very interesting to watch a master craftsman go from machine to machine to get the straight cut instead of just using the jig saw like to rest of us to get a wavy line. Well done. I have to watch this several times to add those little multi-tool steps to my future work. Probably should do a bunch of these push sticks to get the steps embedded in my little brain.

    When drilling the holes for the push sticks on the drill press I think I would have a sacrificial backing board so I wouldn't have to adjust my stop blocks. I'd get a clean hole and save time by not having to adjust the stops.
