- A couple fun projects using the technique of cutting coves on the table saw. Its a process worth trying out at least once.

Awesome video! You just taught an old dog a new trick. lol. Never in a million years would I have figured out how to make a radius with a table saw!
Ooo that table saw diagonal saw trick to make a groove is a good one, thanks for showing it ha
I just started following Jeff & his awesome channel.I’ve learned so much just in the month or so I’ve been watching,and he is a funny guy hahaha
Thank you my friend.
Cutting coves is a great lesson
Use your off cuts when possible to clamp the cork.. The ones cut on the bandsaw for example.. Good Project.
You are a genius both in presentation and clarity. This is a real good video.
Thank You!
Thanks for showing this technique on the table saw
+Tony Banner you're welcome.
I just found you channel a few episodes back. I gotta say your a really good teacher.
+Brian Donahue thank you
Thanks for the tip on how to make the clamping caul with the cove cut. I was working on a different project the other day and decided to make one for myself with some of the left over wood. Turned out great!
Thanks. At first its a bit intimidating, but once you do it, there's nothing to be scared of. It actually opens up several possibilities for other projects.
Great video!
Good work! Thanks for sharing
+321bytor thanks
Nice video. I don't have the confidence to use a table saw like that, but at least it has me thinking about a possible project in the future.
I made some spool clamps and used cork. Contact cement worked great and best of all no clamping.
Hey man I really appreciate your video/s ! Thank you for the info, very informational and consise easy to understand instructions. God bless and have yourself a very Merry Christmas!
Thank You! Merry Christmas.
Great explained. But it must be a hell to be lefthanded. Saw that. when You cut of the excess of the cork. Something went wrong like looking in a mirror in the wrong direction in some how. Now I,m going to make my own neckrest and I,m right handed, thanks God. 😅😅 Btw my wife and both daughters are lefthanded oh yea.
Cool video! Use a sharpie to mark your table saw for future reference marks instead of tape. They can easily be removed when your done with them with acetone or alcohol.
hey man love the videos, I'm left handed to and I can only use scissors in my right hand to and it is because of the schools I was always told to use them in my right hand! Your not alone!!
+Rick Brewer Jr. Isn't that crazy? Go lefties! just not with scissors.
thanks for showing us this technique. It seems like you could use it to cut edging on a piece of wood too. Great video.
I believe there are many applications for this. 👍
Nice one
Thanks 🔥
thank you
nice work,anytime you build something you need it seems you're eager to use it rather than if you buy it. and you know its made right
+Chad Lowrance Yep, there's a level of satisfaction you get when you use it that you don't get with something purchased. Even though it does the same thing.
this video's great, thanks!
Thank You!
Gluing the cork in place: you could use contact adhesive (rubber cement), no need to clamp...
Oh yeah, That would have worked great.
nice job man
+Bison Workshop thank you.
thank you cool man!
Great stuff man,I also liked and subscribed
Awesome, thanks and welcome aboard.
Nicely Done Jeff! Those two projects look awfully familiar to me ;)
+Project Electric Guitar wow, I just looked. We have a lot of similarities in guitar projects.
Great video. What dimensions do you have for the semi circular cuts and wooden block
Thanks for sharing Dude i'm gonna give this a go :)
+Axe Thrash it's actually kind of fun. Be safe though.
+Axe Thrash its fun. Go for it.
Very nice job and great idea.
I need to find a way to make a neck rest, but I do not have a table saw. I am basically limited to my Radial Arm saw and a shallow depth reciprocating type saw and some hand tools. Any ideas?
Thanks and nice job on your neck rest.

the glue bottle looks like the right size to clamp the cork into place
Oh yeah, I didn't think about that. Good call. 👍
Fuck Yeah!
I'm LH too - can't cut with my left hand either! I think it's a sign of superior intelligence. Lol
Yes! You are right my friend. Lefties unite. Lol. 👍
Can you tell me why you put cork on before you put Tung oil on? Will it not adhere?
You got it. I didnt want to try glueing it on top of the oil. Most likely it wouldn't stick well.
If you make that cove cut with a 10" saw blade will it work as a fretboard radiating tool?
It would if you can safely get the correct radius. I might try making some this way.
It will not work. When you run a board across the blade diagonally you get an elliptical cut, not a circular cut. The only time you get a circular cut is when you run the board perpendicular to the blade, which will give you a 5" radius. An elliptical cut is good enough for a clamping caul or a neck rest, but I don't think it would be good for a fretboard.
what are the measurements of the wood
What angle did you end up using?
+Thomas Robinson that probably would have been nice if I recorded that angle so I can repeat it. Unfortunately I did not.
@@homebuiltshop About 64 degrees works well.
I'm exactly the same with left handedness and using scissors hahaha
+Chris deery it's not just me. I don't feel so bad.
How do you make this when all you have is a coping saw? 🤔
maybe pvc pipe
+woolbe8 that might work as well. Thanks.
Using the table saw like this is very dangerous, please guys, never do that
Using a table saw is always dangerous. As long as you go slowly and don't force the wood through, it's no more dangerous than a straight cut.
If you place the diagonal fence in front of the blade so the force of the blade is pushing the wood against the fence it will be easier to control the cut, and therefore safer.
