I wonder why people use screws when they can use glue. For practical purposes, gluing is as strong as screws and a lot more rigid, specially over the long haul.
@@skwalka6372 I guess screws allow replacing parts more easily especially concerning jigs which have certain parts that wear out. But maybe not.
@@Synonomous Not sure, it might be a mix of tradition and impatience (no need to wait for glue to set.)
@@skwalka6372 Note that the video was mostly about developing the jig, which means a fair amount of trial and error. Glue is "trial and scrap". The pins used in the video can be pried apart pretty easily, and are a lot faster to fasten.
The perfect 2x bench method and there's a lot of good ones out there. Thanks bruddah.
My favorite part of this channel is that it's not usually a how-to, it's a "how-to-approach-to." ...Which has so many more uses in additional disciplines.
Precisely and concisely said, like everything about James’ teaching, good call mate, 😎👍
The difference between showing and teaching someone :)
So true. Over the last 30 years, I have made a career doing this - in the computer industry. In my case, scripts are my jigs. So much computer administration is manual, editing config files and such. What if you could write a script to generate the config file with exact settings? I do this all the time, and making my "jig" usually takes about 30 minutes and saves many hours of tedious, error prone manual administration.
This is THE perfect example of: Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Having a ‘how to make’ vid is good, having a how to make, but also how to think for yourself and your needs, is so much better.
Great channel that works for me !
Yep. I need this jig, plus it's giving me an idea for a mortise and tenon jig.
It's not about the time it takes you to assemble a jig. It's about the repeatable accuracy it provides. Stellar!
Modular shop plans...YES PLEASE!!! 🙂
I'm chuckling: Your jig materials budget exceeds my project materials budget.
The thought process you impart on your channel is why I keep coming back. You have great ideas and you also share why in addition to how. Woodworking is often about problem solving.
I make a lot of jigs and fixtures in my shop. To me half the fun in wood working is planing and making them.
It's great to not only give someone a fish but teaching him how to fishing. Thank very much.
Probably my favourite video of all I've watched from you so far.
Thank you for the easy-to-follow and informative content. I look forward to the table build video.
Super helpful! Will definitely build this jig. Thank you.
great video , looking forward to the bench build and plans .
thanks for being awesome
This helps so much on a project I'm working on. Thank you!
simple yet brilliant--thank you so much!
The video was excellent, and I also enjoyed how you promoted the squares at the end. Thanks.
Thank you for great videos, I love that you take the time to explain your work process.
Jigs evolve! Thanks, James.
Slick as a wet whistle. Thanks for sharing with us James, that is a kool jig. Fred.
This will transform my garage, on one wall !
Thanks for the outline
Really brilliant jig, James! 😃
Thanks a lot for all the tips!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
This. I have some half lap stuff coming up and I was pondering a jig. This is a perfect jumping off point. Thank you.
Excellent information!
Thank you for sharing!!!
Very well spoken. I can appreciate that in addition to the terrific information. Thank you kindly
Once again, you’ve made a great “no nonsense” video that’s informative and “to the point”. Thank you for sharing this and I agree that making a jig is time well spent and we do get faster at building them.😊
What a fantastic and very professional video. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks James.
Genius, just what I've been looking for. The perfect 2x bench method.
Excellent video, Lap joints are strong and easy. My favorite joint by far for shop fixtures and tables. Thanks.
Thanks for the video, always enjoy watching!
I got some great ideas from the compact workbench design. Just in time to finish the left side of my garage wall bench. Thanks for the inspiration!
You have helped me immeasurably! From your sharpening videos to your finishing videos I need it all! Nice work and thank you so much. Little by little I’m honing my skills!
That was amazing. I have always wondered how these bizarre looking jigs that do amazing jobs evolve. Now I know. I will be ‘stealing’ this one! Thanks again James
Right! Nicked the concept. Thank you.
Almost skipped over the video but glad your patience kept my attention. Very Cool thing to have in your shop and I have to make one or 2... or 3....lol. Very impressed! Thank you for sharing!
What a square ending. Love it!
Great jig, even better the concept of using a jig for even small jobs (small in size or quantity). After watching you (and JKM and Tamara and others) make and use jigs so effectively and cleverly, I have become a convert. Part of every project is now... What jig do I need / want!
I have an idea for shelves that I want to build for my studio, and they can be taken apart if I am ever moving. A rig inspired by this will definitely cut down on the time it will take to make all the cuts needed. Thanks for a great idea! As usual.
Great Video. I am binge watching your past videos today, as my low calorie thanksgiving treat to myself !
As always I’m impressed , wood worker most of my 72 years and never thought jigs were important. Just one more great lesson from you . Thanks
That is the first ad I've ever listened to, in its entirety, just because of the poetry of the thing. Well done :).
Looking forward to those workbench plans!
This is so Great!
My 101 of making = work-holding & jigs. And this jig is a perfect example. Cheers Jim.
So so so true! Its the biggest struggle i personally have in my own woodworking evolution!
Love making a jig for many different things.
Some jigs are definitely "one hit wonders". Others will stick around and evolve into something better like yours did, or morph into something else. There are also the ones that find a permanent space in the shop due to their usefulness. Thanks for sharing 👍 I have been looking for a way to maximize my tiny workspace and this may just be the ticket.
Thanks for the info!!!! Great Idea!!!!! Much appreciated!!!! 👍😎
Once again a video I wish I seen earlier. Thanks stumpy for your videos
I wish I had knowledge of such a jig on my last lap joint project. It would have been very helpful. But I'll definitely use it the next time. I do make and use jig. They have become my third, fourth and even my fifth hand. Thanks again for sharing.
Brilliant, James. I feel validated in all the jigs I've made for one-off projects. I have found that my experience making jigs has made jig building more effective and quicker as I've made quite a few now. Then there's all that scrap wood I'm using instead of holding on to for years before finally pitching it in the firepit.
Yep I'm steal that idea. Great way to make sure everything the same. And the sander love mine !!! Glad you recommend it. My sanding time cut way down its comfortable in my hand well worth it.
Definitely a jig that I would like to build. And yes, totally agree. Many times I have built a jig that was only needed to a particular project. Makes the build easier and sometimes safer.
Lost count of the number of times a channel has done a review of an item that immediately sells out everywhere 🤣
been looking for one of these guides! thank you!
Im loving this jig, I also love my spiral upcut bits but all mine have bearings on the top or bottom of my bits granted sometimes you just have to make due with what you got on hand.
I have fairly new 2 flut flush trims that I rarely use because the spirals just work so much better!
Thanks for the heads up, Nubs! I got me one of those sanders during my watch of this vid.
You are so right James.
I make a lot of segmented pens and my jigs has evolved a lot.
I now need to make another jig which will take that to another level.
Great video.
Take care James.
Cheers, Huw
I bought the 3m sander when you first showed it on your show and it’s a very nice sander very little vibration.
I just made one and wow what a game changer, awesome simple design
I am looking forward to seeing your videos and plans for this modular one wall garage workshop. This is exactly what I want to do. I have a two car garage and am trying to setup a shop on the far end wall that still allows cars to park when I am not working on a project.
LOVE the poetry at the end. Finally subbed just now, though I thought I had already. Keep up the good work! Aloha
Very nice! I've even used a 3D printer to make fixtures for angled attachments, drilling guides and even pocket hole drilling jigs for special situations. Jigs and fixtures that I thought were only temporary have become indispensable parts of my workshop: a crosscut sled, table saw extension rollers, drill guides, shooting boards for wood planes, etc. You're definitely on to something here.
Brilliant. I’ll be making one of them for sure. 👍🏻
Your timing is impeccable. I am getting ready to build a 2x4 stand for a 100 gallon aquarium. I have always used a dado set on the table saw for the joints. This jig and a router looks much easier and more precise. The studs are planed down to a uniform size. I am ready to make the stand this way. Thanks!
Fantastically easy...except finding an uplift router bit in NZ! Another missing ahead. Brilliant tutorial! Thanks James.
I like the tip about using a nailer to get the pieces to stay in place until you screw them. I recently came across this problem but had no good ideas on how to solve it. Thank you! Also thanks for the recommendation on using an uncut spiral bit. I'm going to try that out as well!
I make a lot of jigs in my shop when I'm building just about anything. But the tip about pin nailing the thing together first is like "why didn't I think of that"! Well now it will be used just about every time I build one. Thanks for the awesome videos. Have a cold one, you deserve it!
Yes, I will steal this.
Thank You.
Great video! I’m getting ready to build a new workbench and I’m going to build this jig first. Thanks
Great point.
Before I start any project, I have a universal jig that I dance.
That was impressive. Nice work man thank you very much
Always excellent.
I don't know what's better. The video, the jig, or that limerick ending! Awesome as usual.
Great video - inspirational! Thanks for sharing.
Great video as usual... Loved the Dr. Seuss ending about squares....
You are right you were not mass producing the tables, but you needed several lap joints, so the jig makes sense. I am a big fan of jigs. Sometimes it makes sense for a single piece if accuracy can only be obtained that way. Excellent video.
Love this, thanks very much for sharing
thanks for another great video. I just got one of those 3M sanders from Taytools, and for anyone considering, it's well worth the price tag, especially at 20% off. thanks again for the tip!
This will be my next jig as I need it to make a workbench with a lot less fasteners. This will also help with shelving in the basement too
Great jig instruction.
James my boy, will I nick your ideas and thought processes, Yup, absolutely lol just like everything else you have taught me over the years lol. Have a wonderful day James and thank you again mate from Down Under 😎👍👀
Always great information and explanations………
Hola! 🖐I'm not at the stage of building jigs just yet, but this video has educated me already. I appreciate the video and the info. Take care and have a good one, Adios!👊
Of course, and as always you’re right! 👍
I like the way you think. You have great ideas, but I have no need to steal them. Coming up with my own solutions is most of the fun of any project!
Love your work 👍
Spectacular !!!
When I started woodworking I used to sit down after each project and write some lessons learned. One of the ones that always stands out for me was “if you can do it with a jig, do it with a jig”.
Dr. Nubs scores again. Nice work James.
In my shop I used T&G sub floor panels that have aplastic plate on the bottom they are also easy on the feet and warm
Great video. Thank you.
Interesting timing. I made a very similar jig just a few days ago, for building a quick chicken wire window frame.
Yes I will steal this idea. Half the reason I watch this channel is for jig tips, and this is a good explaination of the key concepts.
I've been sanding for over sixty years and I have to say that I really love the 3M sander. Also, I think that their sandpaper is the best and a great value.
"Thank You!", Mr. Nubs!
Excellent video even if no 'plans included'.
Have a GREAT day, Neighbor!
Love it, thank-you
BRILLIANT!
I can't stop rewatching this video.
YOU ARE GOOD SO ARE YOUR IDEAS TYVM
Look very helpful with less effort. Nice video.
I like how you showed the process of figuring out your own jig and improving on it until it works right instead of just showing how to make a lap joint jig.
