Cutting boards are easier then you think.(Honestly)
Every woodworker makes a cutting board or chopping board at some point right? Wrong. I'm ashamed to say that in nearly 3 years of making projects I've never got round to making one before! However I thought that a custom cutting board could be the perfect housewarming gift for a family member. Why not watch along and see how I got on?

    Problem is any slight hand movement away from base guide will skew your cut.Its fine jig for general purpose but I doubt for fine woodworking where precision is important.

    • @Greyotterstudio

      True - but that’s also true of any cut I suppose, if you don’t put enough downward and lateral pressure on a table saw the cut can skew too.

    This looks good! My Dad - who was a home carpenter all his life - made all our home furniture back when I was a kid, using only hand tools. Including some amazingly precise dovetail joints. The first (and only, for ages) power tool he had was an electric drill. (It terrified me as a little kid, because it made a horrible noise and spat out angry blue sparks.) That was back in the 60s. Now I'm building out a van, with the help of a baby Makita circular saw, a jigsaw, and a drill. Plus some hand tools. And I've learned the. hard way that sometimes accuracy is not so important - but sometimes it is! In particular, for making drawers or other things that slide on parallel tracks. I've just finished cutting out a series of drawer sections, using a clamped-on straight edge as a guide. Which has eventually worked, at least for rip cuts - but it's a real pain, and not so easy to be accurate for the cross-cuts. I knew there would have to be an old school way to get a good square on a piece of plywood - but most of the videos about this on YT do their demos with a table saw or something even fancier like a plunge saw. So my next project is to make a jig like this - and then I'll go and put it to use.

    • @Greyotterstudio
      @Greyotterstudio 9 дней назад

      That’s awesome! The van build sounds epic, are you documenting it anywhere? Good luck with it all and I hope the jig comes in handy! I’ve used 3/4” Ply here because it’s what I has but tbh I reckon 1/2” would be better!

    • @maradall
      @maradall 9 дней назад

      @@Greyotterstudio My circular saw is a baby Makita (100mm/3.5 in) with a maximum depth cut of 25mm, so I invested in a half sheet of 7mm ply from Bunnings (I live in Australia) and a combination square - a wonderful tool I had never heard of before I started searching for ways to do accurate square cuts without a table saw. I also mounted the track on a base (something I learned from another channel), which is a mixed blessing - it makes it easy to do square cuts, but I discovered that without having the track/guide resting directly on the workpiece, you get massive tearout. (I'm using good quality 6mm ply to make lightweight drawers and shelves at this point - not Baltic birch, but something that was recommended by my local plywood specialist as an Aussie equivalent.) I managed by using a sacrificial thin piece on top of the workpiece to wedge it firmly against the track, and as long as I do this, I get great results - beautiful straight, clean cuts, nicely square. I'm thinking that a piece of wood attached crossways to the underside at one end might be a good solution instead of having it raised above the base, to allow the track to rest directly on the workpiece and square it up easily, without having to use up all my old scrap ply as sacrificial strips!

    Thanks for the video. Where do you get your plywood? - it seems to be very good quality - is it Baltic Birch? The stuff I get from builders' yards is really poor quality. Ordering on the internet is difficult because they only supply 8ft x 4ft panels, and often have a minimum quantity. So I would be grateful for your suggestions. Thanks.

      Hi, I’m afraid that’s probably a trick of the camera! It’s just hardwood plywood from wickes, and to be honest the quality is pretty poor. Wish I could be more help!

    Just purchased this saw thanks to your review. I think there's only 2 reviews of it on RUclips at the moment. Used it for the 1st time today. Making some Christmas tree star decorations. Next job is definitely the sled. My cuts weren't perfect using the mitre. Would love to see you do some beginner builds using this saw in the future. . thanks .

      Thanks for the comment, glad you’re enjoying the table saw! Yes I found the mitre gauge to be a bit average too like I said in the video. I believe there are lots of good aftermarket ones out there but I haven’t got one myself yet :) I’d love to see what you build - feel free to drop me a DM on instagram. I’ll try get a table saw only build out once I’m through my next couple of uploads :) Have an awesome day!

    I have the Wen release of this saw (USA). One feature that I am incredibly happy for, and which you didn’t point out, is the braking feature, which stops the blade very very quickly when the trigger is released. I have a few different track saws, all corded versions (other than this one), and none of them have any kind of braking. A couple other things to note are that this unit is substantially quieter in operation than its corded cousins; and has a very smooth, though quick, ramp-up to cutting speed, eliminating all torque jerk/jump when engaging the motor. The only thing I’ve found I don’t like about the saw is the button to unlock the plunge. It’s too stiff and requires too much travel for my preference, and can be awkward to depress in some situations. (Edit: that said, this is, BY FAR, one of the best investments I’ve made for my small startup hobbyist woodworking, and I don’t think there’s a single tool in my shop that I’ve been nearly as satisfied with. Every other tool has some small amount of Buyers Remorse in one way or another (“I wish it did X better”, “too expensive for what it is”, “not _quite_ the results I’d hoped for”, etc.); absolutely ZERO Buyers Remorse with my Wen cordless).

      Very good point thank you - I did forget to mention the breaking. I’m afraid I haven’t had any other track saws before so it’s great to know it’s quieter then a lot, and I love the the way it starts up like you said, rather then jarring straight out at full speed. I’m replying on my phone right now but your points are brilliant and thank you for sharing them, I’ll pin your comment to the top when I’m on my computer tomorrow :)

      Yes sorry I’m still learning how to edit and have only found out this week what this is and how to fix it in future videos!
