Ken, you keep coming up with stuff I want to make, I may never again have an original idea. Nice coping sled and so far looks like it will be a nice addition to your shop. Your projects always are top notch. Looking forward to part two. Like all the detail. Paul / paulsmessyworkshop
Thanks for the kind words Paul. There is no such thing as an original idea in woodworking these days. Feel free to take any show idea I post and make it your own. You have a style all your own for your show and whatever you do with a project idea that you get from my show will be great. Thanks for tuning in again this week.
Hi Kenny I am looking forward to seeing the completion of this sled, suggestion when installing threaded inserts those slots are not for driving the inserts with a screwdriver, those slots are actually what helps cut the threads in the wood. You have your insert upside down. The slots go into the wood. To drive the insert into wood take threaded rod or a bolt of the same size thread with two nuts as jamb nuts up against the insert to lock the threaded rod in place. To insure a plumb install of the insert I chuck the threaded rod into my drill press hold down pressure as I turn the chuck by hand to drive in the insert into the wood, back off the jamb nuts and unscrew the threaded rod. To remove the insert if needed screw the threaded rod into the insert with two jamb nuts an blackout the insert. 😁🛫
Well, this is a first. In the almost 42 years that I have been woodworking, I have NEVER seen anyone install the insert nuts with those slots facing down. I know that people do things differently, so I did some research and even referenced manufacturers recommended installation and not a single one, shows the slots facing down. They are all facing up and every manufacturer that I could find, cited the slots to be used for removal and installation. I'm not saying that you are installing them incorrectly, because if that is what works for you, then that's fantastic but I honestly, after over 4 decades of working with wood, don't believe that mine are in upside down. Either way, the inserts work, no matter what orientation they are in so, to each their own. Thanks for tuning in to the show. Glad that you are enjoying the series so far.
kennyearrings1 Hello Kenny, after looking at many videos like you did, I did learn that several companies make insert drivers that employ the slots. I have no clue where I was lead to believe that the slots were for helping to cut threads. As I once and only needed to once to say to my wife🤣 I was Wwwwrrrrrrooooooonnnnngg dang that is hard to get out of my mouth. Thanks for the reply. 😁🛫
Thanks Barry. This one will conclude next week and hopefully, you will enjoy part two as much as part one. Thanks for tuning in again this week and for taking the time to leave a comment.
Thank you for suggesting the idea. After all, it was your comments that made me make one in the first place. Glad to hear that you are enjoying it and thanks for tuning in. I hope you enjoy part 2.
Thanks for the kind words Robbi. Glad to hear that you enjoy the show. It takes a lot of time and effort to produce a weekly show and to know that folks enjoy it, makes it all worth the effort. Thanks for tuning in.
Definitely useful Chad. I've used this several times since making it for several projects. Any job where shorter end grain sections need to be routed is done easily with this jig. I'm loving it so far.
Thanks Jugin. You don't have long to wait on this one. Part 2 will be posted tomorrow. Thanks for tuning in and for taking the time to leave me a comment.
Hi Kenny Your a great presenter and love see what you come up with next , I also like some of the odd things you use from time to time the thing I can't find any where is not a whacky dodo ! But the steel line maker you used to mark the 2. 1/2 and 3. 1/2 lines top little thing but can't find any one who knows where to get one or what it's called Help needed Keep up the good work Lawrence QLD Australia
Hi Lawrence. Thanks for contacting me. The device that you are asking about is called an INCRA T-rule. They are available in metric or in imperial measurement and are available at most woodworking suppliers. Lee Valley Tools sells them or you can get them directly from the manufacturer. Here's a couple of links for you. www.leevalley.com/en/wood/page.aspx?p=58877&cat=1,43513,58883,58877 www.incra.com/measuring_marking-trules.html Thanks for tuning in to the show and taking the time to leave me a comment. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
Great video Ken but I do wish you could of finished. I understand why you didn't but it would have been nice. I have a question for you, what is that orange whammy doodle thing hanging behind the drill press? God Bless my friend.
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. "whammy doodle"? That's a very funny term. Either way, it is nothing more than a couple of strap clamps Frank. They are coiled up and hanging on a small rack made of black ABS pipe which makes them look a little odd. Nothing fancy or mysterious here, just some strap clamps. Glad that you were able to tune in this week my friend and I hope that you will enjoy the conclusion of this build next week.
I don't have a drawing to post unfortunately. I give as many dimensions and as much information as I can in my show and the hope is that with all the information that I give, the viewer would be able to make their own version of this jig without a drawing but if a drawing is needed, they would be able to make one from the information given.
Ha, I totally screwed up. Got my fence for my table saw square but forgot to check the blade to see if it was square to the table. It wasn't 3 degrees off. LOL
The extra screws in the front of the fence ensures that the UHMW plastic sits completely flush, giving a perfectly flat surface for your material to rest against. If you wish to put less screws in the fence, that's just fine, but make absolutely sure that the UHMW plastic is perfectly flat and fleshly mounted on the material that backs it. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in and for taking the time to ask your question. I appreciate it Bruce.
@@TKDbruce I do my best to answer every comment and question. I feel that there is no point in having an educational program if you aren't willing to answer questions that the viewers have.

Nice half build there Ken, loads of detail instructions which is how it should be, looking forward to part 2.
Well Done.

Thanks ken. Looking forward to the phase 2 of the coping sled video. Looks very cool.
Thank you for suggesting the idea. After all, it was your comments that made me make one in the first place. Glad to hear that you are enjoying it and thanks for tuning in. I hope you enjoy part 2.
looks like that is going to be a nice jig. cant wait to see the next vid. keep em coming love watching your videos.

Very nice,love the details, I'll put this on my build this list. I think it will be useful for a lot of different uses on the router table. thanks
Definitely useful Chad. I've used this several times since making it for several projects. Any job where shorter end grain sections need to be routed is done easily with this jig. I'm loving it so far.
I saw somebody using that disposable piece for setting up the router bit hight 😊 I would keep it for possible future repeat 😊
Not a bad idea at all. Thanks for tuning in and for chiming in with your suggestion.
All the best!. Looking forward to learning more.
Thanks Jugin. You don't have long to wait on this one. Part 2 will be posted tomorrow. Thanks for tuning in and for taking the time to leave me a comment.
yes sir,im definitely making it,save the fingers and improve the quality of your work. you are so helpful. thanks
Thanks Chad. Definitely save the fingers. They are an endangered species with me as I only have 10 left. Can't afford to lose any of them.
what a good idea Kenny . thank you
You're very welcome Walter. Hopefully you will be tuning in next week for the finale of this build.
Thanks again and I'll be waiting for the second part.
You're very welcome Sigi. Glad to hear that you enjoyed the show.

Happens to the best of us George. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Square that blade up and remake the piece.
why is there so many screws in the face of the fence ?
The extra screws in the front of the fence ensures that the UHMW plastic sits completely flush, giving a perfectly flat surface for your material to rest against. If you wish to put less screws in the fence, that's just fine, but make absolutely sure that the UHMW plastic is perfectly flat and fleshly mounted on the material that backs it. I hope this helps.

I don't think that multi-part builds are a drawback. As for those people who do, obviously, they must know everything already! ;)
