Being not very good at woodworking, but love doing woodwork, I'm absolutely flabbergast of watching you improve your tools and create these ideas. Thank you for sharing and for being the inspiration that you are, at least to me. Merry Christmas!
This a fantastic design. I have built so many cross cut sleds and was recently given the Rockler miter sled. I like the adjustability of the Rockler sled and have been brain storming how to build a sled that integrates that adjustability into a one piece sled that fits both miterslots on the table saw. Never thought of an adjustable miter bar. Your ideas are original and well thought out. Great video!
I missed this when it came out but am very glad I did see it this morning. One of your best! It's going to be added to my inventory of tools this month. Thank you, John
8:10 goodness, that wood looks really beautiful! Great build, seems super sturdy and well thought out. Thanks to the wonderful camera and editing work, the video was a joy to watch. You can just tell a lot of work and effort went into it and it looks very professional! Thanks!
John, I really like the changes you have made to this. I appreciate your continued diligence in thinking up a project, making it and then improving it continually until it suits your standards. Great job!
Wow! So many smart, practical, homemade, beautiful shop adaptations, that are simultaniously safe!! I am currently on a hyatus with my tablesaw because of a near amputation of my thumb!!
I'm a Canuck (west coast) living in Ireland and have put together a nice woodworking shop and have purchased and will continue to purchase these pure geniusk plans for jigs that you do John, Love it all and follow you like a puppy, MERRY CHRISTMAS to you and thanks for doing what you do my good man.
It makes me sad to see the decline of views on these well thought-out, innovative, well-produced videos. You are much more talented than many of the high performers that come and go.
In this video you have a dust collection top on the green trash can. Is there a video on making this one? If not, please tell me the type of material used for the air filtration on the top.
In every project you do a good observation will pick up many new build details weather one wants to make it or not. I enjoy watching you work. You and Izzy are the best wood engineers out there. Cheers, Lee
John, your video editing is fantastically good! You communicate the actions so that they are understood effortlessly. The film-making skill may be invisible (as it should be) if one is watching the build, but it's fun and illuminating to watch with just the editing and pacing in mind. It's great!
Yes another fantastic invention! The reversible guide bar seems like a really great idea too, making the sled an enormously flexible and adjustable tool.
It's a lot of perfection, a lot of perfection, congratulations for your intelligence, God bless you brother, I can't stop watching your videos. I'm Brazilian. Congratulations again.
VERY impressive work, both in terms of skill, and in the science of the design. Parenthetically I've have never seen so many hand made jigs and fixtures in use at the same time in the same place. AND being Canadian, I believe you use Robertson screws throughout, although with my eyesight I could not be sure. [ I cannot understand the continued popularity of Phillips screws which in my experience will strip at the least suggestion of rough handling. ]
That's one of my favorite uses for a step bit, I love step bits, I always tell people that should use them not a pilot bit because if you hit wacky grain it'll be off.
Do you happen to have a video on the purpose of the laminated board you put in the planer? Or is it just a smoother surface to slide on for certain types of wood?
In case John doesn’t respond, I just thought I’d let you know I did this to mine and it was such a big improvement. Mine is the so called “lunchbox” style; the tables were not too slick and the sheet metal base of the main table was warped. Removing it and fitting this 16mm (5/8”) laminated board made it much more accurate and the work slide through much more easily and smoothly.
je n'ai pas compris les paroles (j'ai déjà beaucoup de difficulté avec l'anglais écrit...même avec les traducteur de Google) mais en s'accrochant à la façon on comprends la démarche et là , Chapeau!
Hi John Just bought your plans for the precision mitre sled. Do you have the jpg/pdf file for the 180 degree scale that you used in your experimental version, as it seems better than your latest one which goes round to 130 degree
I liked the triangular vernier on the table saw. My twenty year old plastic is getting hard to read through. this gizmo won't clog up with sawdust and hide the measure marking below. wow such a little thing can change the world. C
Something I'd like to point out .... you've been regularly uploading videos so that for me they're always there now on a Sunday morning and this shit's become a sort of 'ritual' now for me so your _obliged_ now John, obliged to keep this up :) Seriously though, it's gotten to the stage now where if I don't have an I Build it video to go along with my Sunday morning tea I'm going to be pissed off about it. I love it.
Great video John - another great jig for the table saw! I really like that this video is entertaining with enough detail to keep it interesting. But, if you want enough detail to build one, you provide it; and you can work at your own pace. There's also access to video for those that want it.The full package. Brilliant!
Thank you kindly for your awesome job, John looking forward to next year's content. From my family to your family, Merry Christmas and the best to you all in the New Year. Play Safe From Elliot Lake Ontario Canada.
as i see the his idea, it was to enable alignment of the fence to the scale so as to make placement of the scale less finicky if not nearly arbitrary. that's the way i see it

Great job glad t
There is more subtle innovation built into this sled than I have ever seen on youtube. Bravo John, and thanks for sharing with us.
das beste was man sich vorstellen einfach genial lehrreich und unterhaltsam.
die beste schule welche man sich denken kann tausend dank adolf süss

John: MIND-BLOWN on the flippable miter slot guide!!!! BRILLIANT!!

This is about the best thought out jig I've ever seen. The reversible guide bar is genius.
I like how many of your tools are handmade. Looks like a kids shop but in reality it takes a lot of engineering smarts to make the stuff.
12:00 So NOW I know why I need to get a step drill. To pilot out a small hole for a larger bit. I seriously had never thought of that.
8:10 goodness, that wood looks really beautiful!
Great build, seems super sturdy and well thought out. Thanks to the wonderful camera and editing work, the video was a joy to watch. You can just tell a lot of work and effort went into it and it looks very professional! Thanks!
John...That angle jig is fabulous!How you get your ideas just baffles me.Keep up the videos and ideas coming,and Merry Christmas!

Ola me gusta mucho la maquina de sierra de mesa tal y como se a quedado debe ser la leche trabajar con esta máquina me gusta felicidades.
Tôi là người Việt Nam 🇻🇳 xem rất nhiều video của chú, rất hay và bổ ích ạ...thanks 👍
Wow, that is cool. I like the little upgrades you made from the original prototype, which was amazing enough in itself.
John, your video editing is fantastically good! You communicate the actions so that they are understood effortlessly. The film-making skill may be invisible (as it should be) if one is watching the build, but it's fun and illuminating to watch with just the editing and pacing in mind. It's great!
You just got another subscriber. This is one of the best sled builds I've seen.
This guy’s talent is unbelievable.
Perfect work and great idea, you are biggest carpenter ingenering.
I'm celebrating having a new push stick and here you are making this beautiful thing. Great work as always John.
Brilliant innovation as always. Proud to be a fellow Canadian . Merry Christmas John. Keep up the good work in 2020
Yes another fantastic invention! The reversible guide bar seems like a really great idea too, making the sled an enormously flexible and adjustable tool.
Замечательная и качественная работа! Супер идея !
It's a lot of perfection, a lot of perfection, congratulations for your intelligence, God bless you brother, I can't stop watching your videos. I'm Brazilian. Congratulations again.
You've come a long very since your early videos. You're one of my favorites here on youtube. Thank you for all that you do for us.
dá uma inveja da abundância de material destes americanos
I really enjoy may watching your works.
its perfect.
Thank you very much.
Pensó en TODO. Magnifico trabajo !!!
That guide rail idea is Fantastic!
beautiful, incredible accuracy, precision and quality.
I am from Russia. I love wood, I love working with wood. It is nice to look at what you are doing. I wish you success.
Awesome sled John, great job! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
Thanks :)
That eccentric pivot is a stroke of genius. I have never seen the likes before.
Genius...
Merry Christmas to all!!!
Great project! Beautiful work!
VERY impressive work, both in terms of skill, and in the science of the design. Parenthetically I've have never seen so many hand made jigs and fixtures in use at the same time in the same place. AND being Canadian, I believe you use Robertson screws throughout, although with my eyesight I could not be sure. [ I cannot understand the continued popularity of Phillips screws which in my experience will strip at the least suggestion of rough handling. ]
Gracias por compartir que es lo mas valioso que se deja en esta vida que Dios me la bendiga gracias gracias
That's one of my favorite uses for a step bit, I love step bits, I always tell people that should use them not a pilot bit because if you hit wacky grain it'll be off.
As always John, innovative and well done.
Love your videos you are an awesome woodworker!! Oh live your rant videos too.
Thant curve line drawing at 0:37 was cool !
Do you happen to have a video on the purpose of the laminated board you put in the planer? Or is it just a smoother surface to slide on for certain types of wood?

Gorgeous, clean work!!!! Thank you!!
Really PRO John! Great build. Great video.
Absolute Handwerkliche Präzise Arbeit 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👍
Awesome! I'm building one just like yours!
Did anyone else cringe at the 18:03 mark?
Precision compound cuts! That’s pretty freakin’ awesome, John!
je n'ai pas compris les paroles (j'ai déjà beaucoup de difficulté avec l'anglais écrit...même avec les traducteur de Google) mais en s'accrochant à la façon on comprends la démarche et là , Chapeau!
You just earned yourself a subscription from this, Sir! Fantastic work.
I like your videos John 👍🏻👍🏻
Nice job on this, both video and project.
It is definitely the cat’s pajamas.
Thanks a bunch.
Hi John
Just bought your plans for the precision mitre sled. Do you have the jpg/pdf file for the 180 degree scale that you used in your experimental version, as it seems better than your latest one which goes round to 130 degree
Nice work john

Now thats a very nice precision mitre sled!
I love the idea with the guide bars 👌
Que trabajo maravilloso, y a su vez didáctico e inspirador. Muchas gracias por compartir su genialidad con los amantes de una carpintería fina.
Merci vous êtes géniale et super sympas je vais le faire
Did I see him use a drill bit as a setup block? Ima try that
top top genial fantastico maravilhoso trabalho uma grande inspiracao para nos marceneiros
Wow.
It's not that I see it for the first time, but man, are you skilled!
🇹🇷 Süper... Tebrik ederim. En basit ve bana uygun proje...
Great work John! The sound lead in was cool! Thanks John
Parabéns, ótima idéia.
É por isso que sou marceneiro.
Great video John - another great jig for the table saw! I really like that this video is entertaining with enough detail to keep it interesting. But, if you want enough detail to build one, you provide it; and you can work at your own pace. There's also access to video for those that want it.The full package. Brilliant!
I can't believe I haven't found you earlier....Amazing work!
Simply perfect
John you and jimmy Diresta are good teach to me 👌
Hello. Good work. How did you do the bent angle scale. I tried and just can't get it. THX
That is one nice sled John.
Merry Christmas
Hi John helps the step drill to a higher accuracy when drilling the blind hole with a Forstner bit? As always, great result and also perfect cut.
Thank you John. This is super nice and I just love it.
Parabéns meu amigo, quanta habilidade e carinho no que faz, fiquei impressionado com a sua ideia!
Abraço aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷
You are simply amazing
Wow, great sled! Amazing work as always.
Thank you kindly for your awesome job, John looking forward to next year's content.
From my family to your family, Merry Christmas and the best to you all in the New Year.

Great work John! Now that's what I call a precision-miter-sled. Have a very Happy Holiday Season!! 👍👍
Como você fez para não ter pó por todo lado?
Your skills almost set the bar too high mate lol. Nice build!
Perfection perfection !!!!!
qué belleza de trabajo!!!
Absolutely superb work. Love every aspect of it.... the haters can take a long walk off a short plank
I'm a mob member...I'll check this out for sure! Thanks.
That kind of very versatile sled could be useful on the bandsaw too.
great miter sled ! only the last few seconds you saw into the miter, design flaw?
You did it again ... genius
What's the advantage of making the pivot point a round disk like that?
as i see the his idea, it was to enable alignment of the fence to the scale so as to make placement of the scale less finicky if not nearly arbitrary.
that's the way i see it
Great jobs 👍👍👍👍👍👍
15:00 I see you got one of them fancy transmogrifier drills!
Very nice
Great job!.Thank you for the informative video.Good luck to you.
whats that grey material on the top of your table saw?
