Something similar found in Euclid's elements and also used by Archimedes.
In the material handling Industry we would call this an overhead bridge crane. Commonly seen in factories and foundries.
The axis running the length of the wood is the bridge axis, which has a trolley axis that traverses the bridge girders that span between the two bridge rails. Then there is the hoist motion that allows one to raise or lower your load.
We live in a 3 dimensional world.
Y AXIS =Vertical Axis Up/Down
X Axis = Horizontal axis Left/Right
Z Axus = Depth axis Forward/Backwards
How long did it take going back and forth leveling?
First time watching, found it 2 B slicker than snot
I literally don't have anywhere to even put something like this, but I still clicked, watched, liked, and commented, because this is the best wood working channel I watch.
There’s no way you watched the whole thing. It’s only been up for 8 minutes
@@Bourbonmoth Sheesh! No, I didn't finish watching it yet... but being the forward thinking individual I am I realized people would be reading my comment in the future. Being the astute youtuber I am, I realized it wouldn't make sense to explain to people in the future that I was GOING to watch the whole thing straight through. Now that I'm at 16:30 maybe I'll just pause and switch over to getting my new quote on policygenius.com.
🤣🤣
nah it went faster cuz you cut out the sanding bit
@@mrtaylorrose I found it so easy I watched it on 2x speed. I actually made the table top at the same time as the video played. I do admit I did skip the sanding bit too.. Now I have a heavy surf board till he uploads the next video to make the legs.
An intricate ballet so full of form and function. Thank you Gary Oldman.
Agreed. "Flush on the bottom" is indeed the most important part! Such wisdom for oh so many things.
Friend comes over for a little help… thinking it’s gonna be an hour maybe if we chat and have a coffee in between.😂 Love your videos. I’ve learned so much. Thank you.
As skilled as you are; I am glad you don't take yourself too seriously. Very refreshing bro. Excellent project, learned a lot! Thank you!
Omg he put the grain going the same direction on 3 of the 4 pieces! My ocd is high gear right now
I kept thinking - "He's playin', he won't leave it...
For the flattening jig…. To adjust the rails, you can also run string lines corner to corner- the rails are parallel when the strings just touch where they cross. This is how we used to set door frames before pre-hungs were a thing.
What do you think about using shims to fix any inaccuracies in the rails?
I mean, Can we be best buds already? Haha love the content. Without a doubt the most laid back, informative wood working videos yet. And I watch a BUNCH.
HAHA! Perfect timing.. 😀😀 I am planning to finish my 7ft. plywood tabletop. Working on it for over a year and this was my last headache... thank you so much!!
Everyone needs a friend like you 👏
I loved watching this old house and Norm abrams work shop when I was a kid .ive always loved to watch quality Craftsmen build all sorts of things that's why I started watching your channel it's great quality work but your humor makes it so much better .
Keep it up love your work
I just like to say thank you to bourbon moth as I enjoy your videos and my wife was down one day and told her to watch this man and he cheered her up thanks keep doing videos
You are a master builder, Mate. I love your work. And I love your sense of humor- you pretty well crack me up, thanks!! 😊💙😊💙😊💙😊💙😊💙😊💙😊💙😊💙😊
Thanks for taking the time to get your whole intro filmed in one take! easy to think you can do it, a whole lot less easy to actually do it. nice and fluid dialogue too. much appreciated!
Thanks for showing the final product first. Very helpful video.
Thanks Jason for a fantastic explanation of how to make an oval jig. I would like to share a method that I use on ellipse jigs and jigs. Instead of fastening the router base to the jig I drill a 3/4” hole in the jig and then use a router with a 3/4” guide bushing installed. The router remains oriented in the same direction as you rotate around the work so that your cord doesn’t twist with every revolution and any router that will accept a 3/4” guide bushing can be used. John Jensen
I have built a handful of elliptical stairs over the years. I'm no math genius, but I thoroughly enjoyed having to figure it out, with nothing more than a book to understand an ellipse. Your jig worked very smooth, and I understand your fascination with how it works.
Love the sled idea. Thank you for showing that. Table top came out looking great.
I look forward to each new video, even if they’re not new at all; just to me. I think this is one of the best.
My shop is 200 sf, on a slope, tablesaw out of square, plywood around here scary expensive, so satisfying watching someone doing things smooth and right.
Another beautifully executed video. A nice gentle half hour in your company. Thank you Jason 🌞
Never a dull moment. Some of the jigs you make are far better quality than the furniture I've built.
This will work great on river tables and pallet wood furniture!
Thoroughly enjoy your commentary and your obvious sense of humor! Your woodworking skills are exceptional and I learn from you each time I watch your videos. Keep up the great work and (try?) to enjoy life!! (That'a joke, son!! )
That slab started out looking like something I would make and finished looking like something I wish I could make. Great work cleaning it up and you're right, watching the whole thing work was very satisfying.
I bought a Rockler jig some time ago because , like you it was fun to play with until I found a use for it, a small oval table. I had the opposite problem that you had, it wouldn’t make a small enough oval for my table top. I had to make my Center cross section “do hickey” smaller by chopping the corners off. Biggest difference was I had a pile of black plastic saw dust. Seriously the stuff inside your head is very cool 😎!
Thank’s you’re videos with your humor have help me on something. Well maybe a lot of thing maybe
Your timing is incredible as I’m building an elliptical table top and had planned to figure this jig out on my own. Thanks for saving me time!
By the way, my kids refer to you as the “easy peasy” guy and love those lines in some of your other videos 😆.
Great Jig, just found out today that Rockler makes a bigger base you can buy to expand the size of the Ellipse you can do. I made one like yours and learned you can make the sliders longer , like a foot or eighteen inches, just so they don't run into each other in the middle. Then you can cut longer and wider ellipses. You could have made his top use the entire piece both length and width. Lots of possibilities. Great video.
I've made a lot of tops from dimensional lumber. Pine is very underrated as a table material. Sure, it dents and scratches, but it looks lived with. The ellipse jig is awesome and simple. And, I'm going to totally steal that router sled design. Thanks!
Ahem...that would be a router *train*...
I agree. I've made desks and even countertops with a 2x4 glue up. Yes it is cheaper material but if you are going for a rustic, worn-in look, other harder woods just don't cut it.
I really love these videos. It’s starts off with a quest and along the way are all these side missions that add cool shit to your inventory
I love everything you do. I will never do most of it, but I always learn something to use somewhere. You are talented in wood working and in entertaining.
I like how you said "I got this one from Bits & Bits, I'll put a link in the description" and linked a $10 cheaper bit on Amazon.
Damn Bits & Bits, sponsor the man.
Do I want to you to read from a phone book? No. Would I watch a video of you doing it? Yes. Nice job.
....that's loyalty - i'm loving it.
Finally, you can build an oval river table!
Yes! The internet demands this!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I built a "router train" to flatten a cut out from a maple tree. Worked pretty good. Now I'm going to make an elliptical jig.
Did you know you can’t buy an elliptical router jig in the uk. Go figure. This is invaluable to me thanks for all the fun tutorials. Watch them constantly
You crack me up. I enjoyed watching from start to an outstanding finish.
I love all the technical terms.
My compliments to you: you have a knack for explaining your project with just the right amount of humor to make it quite entertaining. Seriously, you are a master woodcraftsman, IMHO. Thank you for sharing this video.
lovely how wood can be manipulated into any thing with the correct tools and a bit of thought. loved the video please continue
Wow - pure genius and geometry!!!
Very cool. In geometry class, we learned this type of ellipse construction was based on the "trammel of Archimedes".
And the wee slidy things are called shuttle. I was so pleased to see that someone made the association with Archimedes. I've made smaller versions and kids love to play with them, I do to, they are mesmerizing.
Nice peace for a table. I liked it very much!
After watching your videos it does seem like you would really do that for a friend! Great job I love your work!
Stars and stones, that's a lot of 2x4 to flatten...
Yer a wizard
I was wondering if the "Hells Bells" was a Dresden Files reference! Looks like another Jim Butcher fan caught it as well!
My favorite woodworking channel!
Very nice mathematical construction!
Yo, didn’t expect to see you here
It's gotten "the nothing grinder" as a name on RUclips, because you can turn it somewhat like a coffee grinder but nothing happens... Mathologer's 2018 version I like best: ruclips.net/video/7Fn-26Jmi5E/видео.html --- he shows pictures of old ellipse drawing jig as well.
Now we are waiting for wood working projects on your channel ;-)
Don't think I didn't notice that train sounding music. Because I did. Nice job.
Man you do great work, nice to see how the finished product is so nice. Congrats on solving the elliptical shape.
Thanks Jason, for sharing this really good Video. Your patience to detail is going to be very helpful to a person not familiar with cutting ovals.
You had me laughing because You reminded me of myself only I don't verbalize my thoughts! Loved the video , nice work!
What's up? I'm glad you posted this! I wanted to do this and have thinking about doing this in my head but you're way cooler than I am! Lol
I was legit trying to think the other day how I might make one of these elliptical jigs for the router. Now I know! Thanks for the great tips and the awesome videos! But I don't know why Neil Patrick Harris would send you those 2x4s glued up like that! Such a noob!
Because he knew the final product would be LEGEN.....I hope you're not lactose intolerant.......DARY!!!
Interestingly satisfying to watch the elliptical movement 👌
You're a good friend!
That is awesome....think I will make a half oval table for my wife. you have my brain thinking now. thank you sir!
Nice table saw change in the middle
Making lemonade from lemons. Nice job!
got to love a bourbon moth video drop
Both of your descriptions are by far the best instructions on how to make something I’ve ever gotten. For an Ellipsis jig and the router flattening jig! Thanks man, really exceptional!
One of the very best educational and informative videos.
Thank you sir,
Just LOVE the router sled!
You're a cool man fella! Love the videos. Support from the UK
Great video and funny too .
I learned new things and that's all that counts . Thank you
Excellent, Bourbon !! From Toronto , Canada
Bro, that jig was boss level work
Jason's quote: "Shut up and say yes to your friends." But what if your friend's table top choice was a glued up mess from a pallet? 😂
any friend of his would know better than use pallet wood!
It’s almost like you’ve done it before. Very creative jig
Nice. Makes me think back of a 80 inch by 40 inch oval table top I made using pretty much the same jig. Not quite as spiffy as yours, but it got the job done. Maybe some day I'll get to use it again....
Great video ... definitely making this jig .... awesome job .... thank you again
definitely my favorite video of yours so far.
Thanks Jason. Always the best!
If you wanted to make the table longer, you can cut the slider that moves across the width longer, when the router is cutting the sides, the end pivot will be outside the width of the jig ;)
Yeah, that annoyed me too!
Am I not mistaken or doesn’t placing the pivot for the long side as far as possible, like he did, mean that if it was any farther out it would come out the end of the track? You’d need to make the jig bigger I think, and that point the router would want to cut the jig when it came to cut the short side. I think you’d have to cut the long side and then cut the jig down to get the short sides down.
@@jeremyspecce With the method i stated, you want longer reach on the lends, but keep the sides the same, the only way to do this is to have a longer bar without changing the pivot closest to the router, which means the other pivot needs to be outside the current jig without making the jig wider.
It may be the case that the other slider needs to be longer too as the jig is 'square'
@@jeremyspecce you're right, the track for the minor axis is as long as it can get already. The major axis track can be lengthened, but it would cause the shuttle on the minor axis to slip out the end every time the router approached the minor axis. To fix that you can make the minor axis shuttle longer to allow the pivot point to travel beyond the end of the minor axis track without the shuttle falling out.
Love your show! Especially the funny adds. Me! I just left my kids my house. No problem, no policy. 😎😘
Bro. Can't believe my Google search took me to you!
Microjig has a router bit and attachments that would allow you to make the elliptical jig out of one piece of plywood. Easy-peasy.
Brilliantly done👍enjoyed every bit of it.
Same! This is exactly what I needed right now! Thank you sir!
Thank you so much for the jig design for doing ovals - that will come in handy. It will be intimidating to attempt that first oval table - but that is how I will learn and get better. Thank you Jason.
I first made this jig 15 years ago by copying one from the Trend catalogue. I lent it to a friend to make 30 elliptical card playing tables for a local club. Highly successful so I then made mini version which I have used ever since. It, s easier to make the sliding dovetail on the router table with a suitable bit. Good Video.
Love love love your narration!
Just a tip. I have a 6 socket cord hanging over the center of each of my work tables. Saves me having to grab a cord, jump up on my table and wrap a cord around a ceiling hook. Your way is fine too, however at 75 my table hopping days are long past. Enjoy your videos, thanks and Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Your videos are both funny and educational!
I like them a lot!
You’ve got some badass skills man 👏🏻👍🏻
My company logo utilizes an oval. I'm definitely going to try this! Thanks!
That was a nice shot of you blowing wood
Nicely done. Thanks for your videos. Hope to follow in your footsteps.
Lol no wonder houses are so heavy to pickup. You’re a good friend. 👊🏼 Jigs make our lives so much easier. Do you happen to have a favorite router bit if you had this project planned? In a perfect world you’d want one that takes off more material width wise with each pass.
Nice work! I liked the mismatch of the initial glue up. Seems like it could be a backing to mount a tv, or something.
i spent the last three nights trying to figure out how to make a jig to make elliptical window frames out of big slabs of wood from a tree that was cut in my father in law\s front yard instead of sleeping. thanks for this.
Who hoo! My slab is full-dimension 2x6 Alaskan Yellow Cedar. It's 8' long and 36" wide. I think I'm gonna do this. Nice job.
Pro tip from a pro video guy - when turning from camera shot 1 to camera shot 2, as in your Policy Genius commercial, look down while turning. You’ll notice that all news anchors do this while turning camera angles. It smooths the turn and gives it that pro look!
Dude your simply amazing, I love all your videos, I have learned so much
As usual, a great job. It's always a pleasure and fun to see you at work and I have decided that from now on, I will evaluate your projects with a scale between 1 and 5 hammers "🔨".
This time, like all the others, you deserve 🔨🔨🔨🔨🔨. Thanks for your sympathy my friend. 👍👍👍
Thanks for the laughs and hard work!
This is really neat. Informative video. I have bookmarked this one with others I save for quick reference. Thank you! Now that your project is sone, You can go back to playing with the sliders on your jig lol
Love this jig, but if you connect the hold-down screw holes with a slot, you'll have an adjustable oval jig. It's advisable to add a ruler next to the slot for easy setup. Likewise, I'd paint one of the knows and run a line dyed the same color next to the track It is on, just for easier referencing when setting up the adjustable oval jig. Maybe you could explore that upgrade in a future video. I love your workmanship.
Thanks for sharing that proyect. I'm tempted to make one jig as that. Greetings from El Salvador
Another great video, very informative, I like the subtle humour. Oh, and maybe call them the major and minor axis, some other people do. Carry on! LOL
