- The easiest way to straight cut metal sheet. In this video You'll see how to build a straight cutting angle grinder jig. I have been trying to do it in the simplest and easiest way, using minimum of elements. To make this usefull product You'll need: 3 screws, 2 nuts and about 25x15cm metal plate. If You'll have any questions - You know what to do. Have fun!
I had a lot of old pipes and rebar to cut up and from what I read ruclips.net/user/postUgkxPDBfLu68o58Aw85O_J-zIFfjJARBhp-3 this would be the tool for the job. Since I had never used one, I watched a couple of youtube videos and I'm so glad I did. Some really good safety tips, which I followed, and this tool did a splendid job. One good thing to know is the weight of the tool puts just about the right amount of pressure on the metal I was cutting, so I didn't have to use a lot of pressure, which is more likely to jam the tool. It made fast work of my job.
Great... Please share the measurements that you have used... Thank you
Moving it up and down drives the grinder left and right because pivot is threaded.
Did I miss you shaving threads off ?
Awesome idea! I might try this at some point. Cutting metal with my old grandpa's hacksaw isn't as fun as it used to be. ;.)
Great invention. Shame I don’t have a welder though ☹️
This video would be better if u dropped that annoying music.
Thanks for the simple and practical idea to cut along a straight line with an angle grinder.
You have used a threaded rod and two nuts to raise and lower the grinder. Though it works, when you raise and lower the grinder, it moves left and right of the straight line. Even though this movement is very small, you can use a plain rod and two low-cost ball bearings and improve the accuracy.
Looking forward to watching the video of the improved version.
The real way to cut straight is practice, carefully score the line you wanna cut making a sligth channel, next cut all the way through and follow the channel without rotating the angle grinder, if the channel is hard to follow then try and cut in a bit deeper
Ah! come on, that takes all the fun out of trying to get a straight cut.
All the sussing and swearing that goes with the job. :-))
i'm so impressed with this idea and i'm going to make one.
Definitely looks easy enough to make, and without much time consumed. Thanks for sharing! Aloha
Thx. Aloha!
You could put a spring under the unit so it will push back up
Im wondering if you can keep the cutting disc parallel to the guiding edge (the outer edge) of the jig? As I can see, there is no such thing to stop the grinder from pivoting around two connecting bolts.
true, theres only a single bolt to stop that motion, i tried making one but the disc is not exactly parallel to the outer edge.
My cuts are bad with squere tube profiles. There are not a single tutorial about prciese cut squere tubing.
Nice! If you want more subs, feel free to embed your video on our homemade tools forum; looks like you're one of us :-)
what a beautiful, simple and very efficient project. Congratulations my friend!
Thx
0:53 brother you have to be extra careful while using grinder as it can cut skin in fraction of second, your hand was below it while it was running at 11000 rpm, no no room for carelessness, sorry to say this but you are a little careless with this machine, i know that you know better than me about its operation, but if you will be careless than you will be the one who will get injured, please be safe and never raise the machine more than 10 cm from your work station while it is switched on, lots of love and blessings from india.
Thank You for Your comment. I appreciate your care about safe work. Honestly, i have not notice that situation before.👌
@@DIYInMyGarage your most welcome brother, have a great life. 😊
Recently bought an angle grinder. I'd like to build something very similar to this but I don't have a welder. Has anyone built one without using a welder and if so, how?. TIA
You could try brazing it, just need a decent propane torch and some rod compatible with the metal you're using. It should hold well since it's not a lot of force.
Threads = lateral translation during plunge.
Can you (or anyone) help me doing that jig for me. I am a beginner and would like to buy the jig. Will gradually/eventually develop my skills as needed. But, as a beginner, I am trying to avoid buying too many tools or take too many risks for basic DIY cuts. Anyone?
Put some tinny roller at the backside of the plate for smooth gliding. You can use roller from salvage printer. My idea came out as i see you pushing with lot of friction.
Looks like someone else who has yet to discover the bliss of using a Diablo Cermet metal cutting saw blade. It will change your life and no Im not affiliated in any way.
Very usefull tool sir thanks for sharing 💖👍👍👍👌👌👍👍
Very nice. Simple to make. Thanks
Good! I Will make it other mod
hi there can you fabriacte undercut frame for cutting skirtingboard while its fixed to wall so you can slide wood floor under without taking skirting board off :)
Hello! We are the manufacturer of laser welding/cutting/cleaning/marking machine, did you need these kinds of equipments in production ?
Hello, thanks for the offer , but I dont use equipment like this right now.
@@DIYInMyGarage Alright, sorry for trouble you, if you need it later, please feel free to contact us. Thanks.
Most brilliant hacking ang grinder i ever see..
Yung tred gagalaw a few milimeter.
Pag angat baba ng grinder
you dont need this cutting jig, you cut good straights with just your hands.
He teach how to do this JIG for persons like me. lol
Alpha Sigma Sezón hey, me too
We could achieve the same result by installing a cutting disc in a circular saw!!
Muy buena la idea gracias
Thank you for sharing your very good idea excillent
Can you make a cutting jig for an angle grinder which can cut at 45 degree angle?
This is brilliant. Thank you 🙏
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Very Good Project Brother.
You use spring under v shape for depth adjustment.
Thank You Mohd Rehan for Your comment. It is good idea.
Much needed idea for my DIY projects
Nice idea tks
I plan to do this but for my Metabo bigger grinder 230 mm . Lol
Superrrrrrr and thanks.
The Cutting Jig is a good idea, but I think your cutting is a wrong direction.
0:13 & 9:36 You push forwoard to cut, that's dangerous. You should pull backword. If your cutting is short, maybe the cutting direction is ok; but when your cutting is long or take much time to cutting, then kickback is dangerous.
Many youtuber cutting metal like you, and they all dangerous.
If I am wrong, please tell me.
Hi, thanks for Your comment. So, if You cut steel with angle grinder You should change direction as well🙄
simplej, thanks for you
That is what I call simple and yet very efficient. It is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for sharing...
Thx

DUDE!!!, WTF???, judging from your first cut , why do you even need a shoe, that was awesome, i work with a guy who can make cuts like that, it's like the grinder is just attached to the end of his arm, i'm jealous, i think the trick is ; know where you want the cut , and just commit to it
Can't straighten it
Super work I like
Cool !!
About to make this, how did you make sure the cutting wheel was parallel with the plate?
ruclips.net/video/BHep_9ZdBmo/видео.html
This is really good, and I have a similar Bosch grinder so I may just steal your idea haha.. thanks
Go ahead, have fun. 😁
a simple and genious idea.
great idea and easy to build, thanks ill try this
How many millimeter the depth cutting
The music is absolutely annoying and shouldn't be on at that volume I did want to watch this video but the music just put me off couldn't listen to it rubbish
Thanks for Your comment. I appreciate it. I'll do my best to avoid that in the future.
Wow! Thanks for showing how to make this.
Wow, great work! I wonder what equipment you use for welding the jig.
mig🙄🙄🙄
@@ricksuarez9653 huh? I'll run right out and buy one... 😏🙄
MAGNUM MIG 200 ALUMINIUM SYNERGIA
Great jig fella!, and just what I was looking for. Well done and a nice piece of video work to boot! Thank you.
Thx. I try my best !

Thank you its amazing Im going to do it
Hola buenas tardes amigo maestro exelente herramienta echo en casa que Dios te llene de bendiciones y mande mas videos me gustaria que me diga las medidas la placha de acero espesor, la solera y tornillo se lo agradeceré saludos gracias y cuidese asta lugo amigo desde México Cuernavaca Morelos
Hola buenas tardes mi amigo mucho gusto la hoja es de 4mm gracias por tu comentario realmente aprecio esto
Nice idea
Good idea.. nice n unique jig
Someone needs to sell this
Looks amzing
There is an attachment for grinders exactly like this in my country, selling for less than US$2
Anas Suhaimi not all two things are made the same
@@danielmiller6405 huh?🙄🤔
So, how do we find that?
How about doing one for 45 miter cuts! Great video btw. Genius!
Gizzly Industries sells a jib that does this
IQ 1000
What is the welding type call?
Ecxelente idea, felicitaciones !!!!!!
The best idea!
Brilhante, parabéns 👊
i've seen a bunch of these , and by far this looks like it will work the best, when they try to make them too complex, is where it leaves room for error, very simple design, straight ,square , plunge saw, 1 and done,, send this to bosch, tell them this is how they should have made their CS10 saw
Thx

Love the ingenuity. The hilarious, ironic part of this project is the freehand cut of the base plate. As this has to be dead on square and the dude can easily cut it freehand, logic would dictate he'd never need the guide he built. If you don't possess that level of skill (like me), perhaps have a machine shop cut a perfect rectangle to start with.
My current solution is a 6 pack of tooheys old and asking the fitter at work to do it for me lol
my best friend is a steam fitter, local 420 ,philly, i've been doin auto body for 35 years, and his cuts and welds are miles (or kilometers) better than mine
Am so much amazed for all the stuff youve been shared thank you so much .
Thank You very much, It is very kind of You.
nice vidro can you tell mre what's the title of the music? thanks :)
InspiringUpbeat
Please mention what is the thickness of the plate used?
4mm
Good job 👍
Thenkku
Excelente muy bueno espectacular.
Saludos muy grande para todos desde Tigre Bs.As 👋😎
good video, friend of how much is the thickness of the sheet?
4 mm. Thank You.
Awesome idea man definitely gonna have to make one
Welldone 💕👍💕
Good idea! I would add a thin sheet of plastic to the bottom to reduce friction and make it glide across the work piece easier.
Yes, its good idea. You may use a wax for it as well.
You can use oil to the thread
great, what is the name of that welding machine that you use? would be grateful to know
Magnum MIG 208 Alu Synergia
