@StumpyNubs I have a DeWalt735. What would YOU consider to be the best Helical head to replace the OEM head with? Thank you.
This may have been a bit tongue-in-cheek, but it really shows just how much time we spend making complex jigs when there is no need to.. KISS!!!!!
Thanks, James. 😊😊
I always appreciate simple, and dry humor too. 😁
I love to see ideas like this!
After 45 years as a maker, I believe I have built more things to build things than I have built things!
Sometimes at the end of a project I kind of think I built the jigs more to impress my friends than to make the project easier.
- Of course if you haveto do the same hop manytimes over - repeatedly, jugs are the solution.
(a jig is merely the "hardware" problem that CNC programming solves for - in software)
- Just as a jig is "unnecessary" for a one-off so too is CNC for most simple geometries. (of course, most woodworkers have never touched anything CNC unless they have delved into CNC routing or 3d printing)...
I consider the things I built to build things to be things too. 😃
I disagree that a jig is unnecessary for a one-off. Sometimes having a jig is the only safe way to make a single cut.@@kadmow
The most complex and expensive jig I've ever made: a router table. I needed a lot round bars from the same wood and my only idea was to make them with a router. Now I have a router table, which has been so much more useful than the stuff I've actually built 😂 At least that's my view. My baby loves its climbing wall and runs away as soon as the router spins up 🎉
I came up with this myself just last week. Bought a $3 mdf shelf at Menards because it’s cheap and i have no self control. I used that factory straight edge to square up some plywood that I had to freehand cut with my circular saw earlier. I was particularly proud of that one.
😂😂😂 'i bought a 3£ piece of MDF because i have no self control 😂😂😂❤
I can listen to you teach me tip,tricks and techniques all day!What I like most is you speak clearly to where even someone that doesn’t understand English would still understand you 😂
It will blow your mind even more when you learn how versatile hand saws are. Straight cuts, angled cuts, they do it all!
Hand saws are especially handy for those occasions that you want a 'straight-ish but not perfectly straight' cut.
Saws?! Why back in my day, we used axes for everything. They're even more versatile - felling, splitting, hewing. Saw teeth are weak, axes are strong!
@@interiot2 -said the dwarf.
Straight cuts??? Where can I find one of these mythical straight cutting hand saws? Every hand saw I've ever used cuts a line about as straight as a Rorschach test is clear...
:)
After I make the cut (usually angled) with a hand saw, all I have to do to make it straight is hold the wood juuuuust right so it looks straight.
I've been saving money in an envelope for just this thing. At only $500 this is a steal. I may probably add $100 so I don't feel guilty about taking advantage of you.
😂😂😂
A steal indeed😅
Can I save a little money, and have you send me just the plans to build one if I source my own plywood? How about $300?
I’m sure Woodpeckers will be releasing one soon for around $1,000
Got some big Car Talk energy here.
This is awesome because I never made any jigs, so I don’t have any to throw away. Procrastinating pays off!
Same. Our strategy wins.
Miracle jig.. Love it. We sometimes forget that there are simple ways to get things done. Thank you.
I used this yesterday and got to say, it is worth every penny. Thanks. Wish I would have thought of it, and I could be making bank.
Mr. Hamilton. King supreme of woodworking jigs. "Throw away all your jigs", by, of courae, making a tapering jig. LOL
Always so practical, but highly informative!!! Thank you
Hello, I do not normally comment on U tube, but
I have learned a great deal from watching your content.
I was a welder boilermaker for 40 years and woodworking is quite a challenge.
With your help challenges are easier
Yeah, a piece of plywood does miracles! 😊
Thanks, James!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Never clickbait
Ideas that actually work
Thank you
Who knew April Fool’s Day came a month early in a leap year? Well done James reminding folks that sometimes “simple” is better.
I am working on building a guitar from scratch, which requires lots of odd, angled cuts. This idea is way better than the specialized jigs I have been making to help with these cuts. Thanks! I am setting up my first such jig now (laminating 2 thin sheets of plywood on my very flat reference surface, to which I will add a replaceable guide surface to run along the fence so that I can re-cut that reference face any time I want by running what is normally the blade-side of the jig along the fence to precisely set the total jig width for crucial cuts. I am considering pre-drilling holes so I can easily add reference blocks any time I want (and swap them around as needed for whatever cut I need to reproduce). Lots to learn and figure out.
Maybe won't replace EVERY jig, but that is really a great idea. As is usually the case, its beauty is in its simplicity.
I liked how you shared when you got your first “head “. Never forget ☺️
Excellent as always, James. But would you please follow up with how to make a jig to help me make one of these jigs myself? Also, a metric version would be helpful. Thank you.
This is such a great tip! Maybe obvious to some but this will be my secret weapon for solving some problems. Thank you!
SASE. Now that’s a trivia question! 🤣 I’ll take two, both the long and short versions, I’d probably hurt myself scavenging my scrap pile.
Reminds me of the Ren & Stimpy: LOG!
It’s BOARD!
never thought I'd see a Ren & Stimpy reference in a woodworking video... well played sir...
@@jamesberzsenyi3974 ‘bows’. Thank you.
I appreciate this channel so much. It's the only one in my feed that shows really smart tips for getting the job done without extra expensive tools.
Just yesterday I found yet another use for your jig. A neighbor's kid came to me with a 4 inch tree section complete with attached branches and bark. He wanted to keep the branches and bark, but he wanted the tree rings cut out leaving only the outer ring. The tree section had been cut in half and was mostly dried. I got a piece of scrap peg board and screwed the tree section to it with 4 screws, two on the narrower end and one on each side of broader end. I then began to rip cuts a blade width apart at varying blade heights until most of the heart of the tree section at the smaller end was removed. I then unscrewed it and angled the larger section repeating the cuts until most of the larger end was removed. With the aid of a sharp chisel and a hammer the remaining thin strips were removed. A little sanding with 80 grit sand paper wrapped around a section of closet rod and the job was almost finished. The remainder of the peg board was then cut to shape on my scroll saw to make a back for the project. The hollowed out interior held a collection of 9 volt batteries and wiring that would power LED lights on the tree branches.
Too funny! Point taken. It reminds me of observations of engineers designing complicated and expensive equipment to do relatively simple tasks. When they are asked why they came up with such a complicated design, they say “I paid a lot of money and went to school for years to become an engineer and it wasn’t so that I could build something simple!”😂 Thanks for reminding us that overdesign is not the end goal.
They could sandwich the computer, sensors, digital indicators and servos in the middle of the plywood between the layers, with the battery (Can't have clueless woodworkers doing complex and dangerous things, like changing a battery- someone might get hurt!)
Would it have a magnetic charging thingy or some plug-in doohickey like a USB-C? And Bluetooth, what about Bluetooth? Can you imagine the data you could collect if the sensors were downloading in real time? Next level! @@bobbylibertini
@@rogermccaslin5963 There's have to be an "app" of course, so you could see what your jig is doing (Like: Relaxin on the shelf) while you're at work. And a voice synthesizer so it could give you audible safety warnings, like: "Your farts reek of chili".
Thanks for sharing with us James. I liked the jig you shared with us. Fred.
Can tell you from personal experience, making your own tools is one the most gratifying jobs in my shop.
Thanks James
The check is in the mail 😉
I’ve had those same jigs for years, I just didn’t know it. THANX.
Now THAT was a thing of beauty!
Smiled the whole time.
❤ I wish I had seen this sooner. You are always a problem solver with the simplest solution.
I changed both my jointer and planer to shelix heads and the noise difference and cut quality is amazing. Best upgrade to older machines you can do.
Bless you for this video
Tom Byrne
Great multi use jig. Good quality cutters. Thank you for y. Stay safe, warm, happy and healthy. From Henrico County Virginia 😊
Q: how many cabinetmakers does it take to change a light bulb?
A: only one, but he has to make a jig for it.
more seriously, sometimes a jig is a craftsmanship project in and of itself; and there's nothing at all wrong with that.
Only the best can do outstanding work simply! Thanks.
Great ideas! Thanks
Thanks again for making us better makers. This “jig” is genius. The folks that want to sell me plans for complex jigs are gonna hate on this video. After all, “real” woodworkers must “complicate every sunset” if they’re worth their salt (or sawdust). The rest of us will continue to admire, respect, and, of course, remain supremely satisfied subscribers. We’ll keep learning from your videos and spend our time making things.
Damn you and your simplified methods. Now I can’t justify building complicated jigs. 😂
I didn't see this until April 1st. I entirely thought it was an April fools joke, providing useful information regardless.
ooh ooh I have a PILE of those jigs in my workshop!
Wow! At $500 a piece, you are going to be rich! 😂
I can’t believe it hasn’t been 24 hours yet since this was posted and already I am seeing cheap knockoffs of this amazing jig being sold at the local big box store!
$500? Its the same price as Woodpeckers!
Beautiful.
Finally, something I can use in my not-one-fancy-tool garage. You da bomb.
Yet another quick and easy jig to achieve accurate cuts in an efficient and safe manner. Thanks for sharing.
Just the kind of tips that makes me smile! Go on like this.
KISS. Yep, totally agree. Thx Stumpy!!
Love woodworking humor!
Thank you!
As always great video and love the humor..😊😊❤❤
By far the most useful shop tip i have watched
Thanks man.
Simplicity is a superpower..
Marvellous, imaginative, creative and simply genius!
Thank you for the $500 jig James! It works spectacular!!!!! 😊😊😊❤❤❤
Thanks James. Oftentimes, it seems like simple is really better.
If you get something straight and square, it is amazing what you can do with it! :)
Lol love the video. Just getting started in woodworking, and I don't have dedicated space for workshop so I have to drag everything in and out of the house to work on projects. Because of this, I haven't made a table saw jig yet except for a 24x18 in piece of 1\2 ply wood that I attach plastic runners whichever direction or distance I need for the various cuts, and use double sided carpet tape I had lying around to attach my wood to the "sled" the carpet tape also works great for the runners.
If only I got get my dewalt 7491rs stand a little storter I would be good to go! My table saw height for some reason is 39 inches from the ground and I am 5'1 so maneuvering large pieces is even more difficult, I end up wearing 4in heels when I need to cut larger stock so I am at a more comfortable and safe height. If I didn't have a narrow doorway and high stoop in and out of the front door I would build a mobile cabinet for it but I wouldn't have enough clearance for that. Can wait to find a house with a dedicated workspace.
So simple it’s genius
Superb. I’m a great fan of a “but wait there’s more” and use it in every video I make.
Brilliant James!!
Yeah, I've got a few of those plywood cut-offs..... Just used one yesterday to assist me in getting my NEW heavy tool cabinet over the rear threshold 'lip' in my SUV's cargo area....... Those plywood sheets are good for lotsa stuff.....
Such a deal! Good video, sir! Thanks for sharing.
When you put that micro adjuster on the chain saw, I think that's when we all knew you had a jig addiction.
Simple and usful... as always🙏
I have just the piece of plywood waiting for me in my shop!
I'm hoping the followup video will let me know how to make dovetail joints with this amazing jig!
wow..... so simple 😧
as soon as you said taper jig I started feeling super stupid. This would have saved my but so many times before, I can't believe i didn't think of it!😱It's so straight forward
THANKS FOR THE VIDEO
LOL nice and simple. Love it !!!
Thankyou for sharing
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!
Hey, thanks for sharing the company that sells helical heads for older machines. Had no idea I could get one for my planer and jointer! Now I have something to save for....
Awesome tips!! Thank you!
Eureka! You have come up with what is truly the wonder jig of all time. And what a great deal at only $500.00. The envelope, with appropriate postage, is winging its way to you as I write this comment. Seriously, always enjoy your videos. I always wonder how many takes you do in order to keep a straight face while recording. Thank you so much for all the great information.
I've been doing this for years and it works great with little time and effort. My favorite material for the "jig" is 3/16" or 1/4"
MDF because it's almost always nice and flat...unlike a lot of the plywood I'm seeing these days.
This gives me an idea,thanks!
Very nice, great to go back to basics...... - also - any size plywood sheet can be used - to act as a large flat infeed and outfeed table for straightening full length construction lumber... (a "in table" hold-down - to stop the "training board" from tilting - very handy (coupled with "in-board" hold downs for the workpiece)...
Impressive! I was able to build one of these jigs in less than two hours!
Great! I love it, thank you.
Really great video. Thanks a lot for your info, as always.
Folks I've used double sided tape for decades--as a golf pro we've long used it to adhere grips to shafts. Quick trick.. Leave a leader. Don't cut through the backing tape every time. If you leave a leader of the backing tape that is longer than the double sided tape you no longer have to pick it off with a fingernail or knife.
Brilliant!!! Thanks!
Wow great video I'm definitely going to use that idea soon!
I was shown a similarly simple jig for tapering, but instead of gluing blocks you trace the leg as it should be held. Then use the bandsaw to cut out the area to hold the leg at the desired angle, and use scraps as wedges to secure the leg.
You are not Norm Abrams - BUT - Norm Abrams is not Stumpy Nubs. You are GREAT my friend and I always enjoy your videos. Thank you very very much.

$500 for all Stumpy's advice would be a bargain. How many of us have still got all our fingers because we watched this channel..?
Amazon has hold down toggle clamps at 4 for $13. I made blocks out of several layers of plywood, and put such a clamp on the blocks. Then I put those clamps where they are needed on my magical piece of plywood with hot glue. This lets me run lots of pieces without having to glue or tape the workpieces down.
I have several of those sleds in my shop
About time someone posted this content.
2:28... Now I really want to see your thousand-legged table project finished.
I’ve been truing up the edges of heavy plywood cutouts for years. The plywood was cut out freehand so the edges were far from true. I have a three inch wide length of plywood that I screw to the top of the cutout with a little bit of overhang and run that side against the saw fence to true up the opposite side. It then has one true side to reference for every other operation.
James, thank you. I have something I was trying to
figure a good and easy way to taper. This is so simple,
for all the things you mentioned. I love simple. ❤ 😁✌🖖
I watched this several times. It’s a pretty complicated jig, and I keep losing it in the scrap bin. Then my spouse saw it and ran off with it, so I’m going to make another one as soon as I have a few hours. Thanks!!
Are you going to make another wife in just a few hours? No surprise the last one ran off with your jig! You basically made them for pine-ing for one another. Really is your fault.
Genius. My checks in the mail.
I hope you have applied for a Patent for your multi-purpose jig. Your channel is great, fabulous make sense content you provide. Keep it up!
Just cut 15 decorative oak stair risers to fit. Used a scrap piece of plywood and double sided sticky tape to taper them when the space wasn’t square. Really handy and quick.
