I don't comment very often, but this kid is operating on a completely different level than most. Truly amazing bro. Please keep it up.
You Sir are a very talented young man, both in the mechanical field as in the woodworking. Love your ingenuity and you approach to solve problems in a permanent matter. And.....I loved the plywood wrench:)
Thank you Roy!
Jer's Woodshop Well done mate!
That would have to be one of the best video on the construction of a fence yet.WELL DONE
Thank you!!
Your fence is better than anything I've seen on the market today. When I find time in my life, and after you've posted your Sketch-up Plans, I just might give it a shot. I can't believe the talent you have at such a young age. You must have had a wonderful mentor. Thanks for sharing it!
Thank you!!
This router fence, along with your table saw fence have to be the BEST that I have seen for a DIY experience. Keep up the awesome work.
Thanks!
I figure myself to be pretty handy but it's guys like you that keep me from uploading videos of my stuff.....great job!
Please, please don't be intimidated by others on RUclips. Go ahead and upload what you have!! Don't underestimate yourself!
Refreshing seeing a video that is purely instructional, and with precise demonstration. Very entertaining and informative. Genius design, flawless execution. Please upload any more.
Thank you!!
I am completely amazed by your design and build skills after watching both this video, and you table saw fence one.
Your attention to detail, had me waiting to see if you threaded the rods you used yourself, because the ones from a store might not be up to par.
Thank you for sharing these builds with us.
Very well done Jeremy! Threaded rod is a cheap and accurate method of measurement and you have taken full advantage of it. Thanks for posting!
+David Stanton
Thanks!
Just WOW. Your craftsmanship never ceases to amaze!
One of best table saw/ router table enhancement project ever posted in youtube. I hope we can see more impressive videos like this from you soon!
Congratulations and Many thanks!
Thanks you!!
Nice to know that there is still creative thought and application of these. Your cam action application is great as well as the incremental adjustments. Keep it up.
Thanks, glad you like it!
That is incredible. There is no reason why you shouldn't have a future planned in engineering/design. You are talented my friend!
Thank you!
Very nice indeed. Not sure why 76 people didn't like this. Top notch stuff!!!
They probably work at Incra.
I am in awe of your skills. That was really something. And that fence is a piece of art. Well done Sir!
Thank you!!
Jeremy , every time I watch a video of yours I am in ahhhhh. Of your abilities and your intelligence. You SIR are years beyond your age when it comes to intelligence and engineering abilities. I thank you for sharing your knowledge with us .
This is so inspiring. People are so creative and patient with their approach. Great work Jeremy.
Thank you!!
I am very impressed. You're so creative and skilled. I bet your parents are very proud.
Awesome. I am rarely impressed this much. This looks far more substantial than any of the common router table fences on the market. I own two, from two of the major brands, and neither of them are heavy/strong/durable enough. Not to mention the fact that yours has such efficient dust collection. Great work.
Thank you! Glad you like it!
Outstanding work yet again. Thx for taking the time to share it with us so we could see it come together.
Thank you! And thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
Very very nice. Part of me loves seeing videos like this for great ideas, part of me just wants to huddle in a corner for being hopeless.
amazing technical skill, nice to see that you took the time to paint, looks shop bought
This kind of projects are intimidating, because of the squares and the precision needed, you make it look so easy! Thanks for sharing
Thanks.
For the most part it doesn't need to be all that precise, since there are adjustments in two directions.
Wow the micro adjust is a thing of beauty. A wonderful design.
Thank you!
A "5000th" of an inch, wow indeed. Excellent work Jeremy.
Dude, you freakin kill me, man. And I mean that in the best way possible! Unbelievable stuff you crank out of your shop! Kudos to you, and keep the ideas flowing!!
Thank you! :)
I like your videos without background music. These machine sounds are like music to my ears.
The skill level is great. I truly enjoy watching some of the people and their videos. The talent and ideas that I see is amazing to say the least. I watch in amazement. Keep up the spectacular work.
Very well done and presented, plus I just loved the way you narrated the whole clip.
+bon rodrigues Thank you!
Two years too late but new to me. Super nice project and video.
I have to say, that's an incredibly clever design. I like it a lot. The only thing I would do differently would be to bolt the fence and cross bar together; mostly because I wouldn't trust my welding skills to do as good of a job. The locking fence faces with the small lever locking mechanisms was especially clever. And twisting the threaded rod to fine tune the position was something I was also not expecting. Wow! Thanks for sharing; it gives me a lot of really good ideas.
I don't know of any large diameter 32TPI rod. But I think 16TPI is about right. Even 8TPI would not be out of the question, in my mind. I almost never need to set it in finer increments than 1/8", and the more threads means it's harder to hit the notch you want. The rare occasion when I need 1/32" or less, I can just turn the rod.
Great build - you have made me rethink some of what I am doing for a router fence. Using those push-pull toggles looks like a real winner.
Thanks. The toggle clamps really speed up repositioning the fence faces.
Another excellent project. Great work, Jer. You have given me another upgrade to my DIY table saw rebuild project.
Thank you!
Jer's Woodshop What are you using for welding? The last time I welded was in high school was with gas, and that was over thirty years ago :)
A Miller 211 MIG.
Wow, very cool project, and I really like the fast pace you set in your videos.
Thanks Andrew!
+Jer's Woodshop Your work is impeccable. Every one of your videos I watch, I think to myself he so smart and young and wonder how his craft will progress in the years to come. Now with that said what are you thinking tapping threads with a drill. Use your drill press to make sure its 90° to the work, without engaging the motor, tap your threads by hand
+Mike Cunningham Thank you Mike! As for tapping by hand with the drill press, I really plan to make a jig for doing that. If the tap is chucked directly in the drill press there is always an upward force from the spring, or downward force if I try to pull the handle. This could result in weaker threads (or broken taps). So what is needed is a sleeve that fits in the drill press chuck, and a tap holder with a stem that fits that sleeve. The tap holder would then have a T-handle so I can drive it by hand.
+Mike Cunningham As an old machine shop hand, given today's tools and skill levels of some hobbyists, the usual tapping can be time-consuming and set-up overkill, relatively speaking. True that if you are a purist a tap used like this is risky, so to is doing it by hand, which is often the case with varying results. I see no problem with using the battery-operated drill for this. The operator knows his machines. And his skill level.
Starting at around 1:10 it appears the drill is not 90 degrees while tapping.
OMG that is impressive. It looks like high end stuff, meticulous and precise.
Thank you!
Wow. Square tube and angle iron into a piece of precision equipment. What impressive workmanship!
+42lookc
Thank you!
Wow another great instrumental video, your attention to detail is outstanding
Absolutely brilliant! Very clever idea. Immaculate execution.
Amen, amen and AMEN!
One of THE most brilliant young men I have seen in my 85 yrs on this earth.
He is superb with unlimited and unique ideas, etc, and the execution of same. Blows my mind constantly.
May Jesus continue to bless this VERY clean cut young man always.
He reminds me of many young men (when it comes to "clean cut") as it was in America, back in the 40's; BEFORE they became rebellious, satan-led, Godless liberals and nothing but cesspools of dunghills; as it is mostly today.
Sad indeed. So it is indeed refreshing to see that they are not all gone.
great feel with this video, love the little stop motion details and good humor...
Thank you!
jer you are one of the best in greater ideas for how to do things easily and correctly. Great work my friend. very few people are talented in mechanical and woodworking.take care.
I am a retired machinist. I have a suggestion. For drilling and tapping holes I learned that using a lube of some king adds life to the tool and makes things easier. I discovered a lube that not only works great, but is safe. Coconut oil / griddle fry. In zero gravity , such as outer space, it won't come out of the pores of the metal. Easy to clean off. I learned this when I worked in aerospace. The stuff is so save you can cook with it.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Excellent router fence, so many great ideas built in!
Thank you!!
Good Job! Jeremy, it's nice to see your development, you have SKILLS.
Dude, that is insane work. The whole time I was like what the...Just brilliant.
Wow!!! What phenomenal work!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Thank you!
thats an absolute excellent fence, possibly the best I've seen. Well done.
This is just next level, very impressive approach and thinking!
"I had to make my own wrench because I didn't have one thin enough."
Of course you did! :) Dude. This is amazeballs!
+Daniel Miles
Thanks! :)
the finish is so clean you won't know it's hand made nice
Your work is second to none may God continue to bless you and your family outstanding job great attitude great idea astounding work. Bottom line God bless
Nice... I did the same to my table saw about 15 years ago... I use it all the time.
Just curious...what do you mean you "did the same" on yours? What part of it was the same? I had thought this was an original idea!! ;-)
Awesome fence! Now I might have to consider building my router table in like this when I get my table saw set up!!! Thanks again!
Thanks Matt!
Love it - you are one talented young whipper-snapper :-). One suggestion for this and your tablesaw fence - you really do need some way to adjust the squareness of the fence to the base. Welding it square is permanent - but other variables like the threaded rod moving slightly is all it would take to wreck the accuracy of your fence. Aside from that I'm gonna make a set of these for myself. Great job!
Thanks!
Not sure exactly what you mean, but the fence can be adjusted for parallel to the blade, square to the table, and the threaded rod can be turned to adjust between the 1/16" increments. I can't think of any other adjustments one might need.
This is one of the nicest builds I have ever seen. Bravo. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!!
You should really consider making this fence system commercially. They rival what is currently available.
I've thought about it, but I think for now I'll just make plans for it and encourage woodworkers to make their own.
Selling plans is probably wise. The costs of selling finished products include: setting up manufacturing, marketing, sales and distribution; customer service ("it doesn't fit", "arrived bent", returns, etc.), managing employees, accounting, taxes, etc. etc.
The 79 negatives should be made to defend their positions. This is outstanding design and execution.
They probably work at Incra
Wow, that is one piece of fine craftsmanship..
Great build and skill shown and the vid production values are superb.
+montewoods Thank you very much!
Thanks for this guide on router fencing! It's an excellent tutorial on making a killer fence.
Thanks!
Herr Schmidt, sehr beeindruckend!
Fantastic, I only wish I could make something like this, No only well made, well finished and so precise !Well done !
Jeremy. The four fluted taps that you are driving with your drill are 4-fluted and made to be backed off to break the chips before they fill the flutes. Evidently you know this from the way you used the 5/8-11 tap, which you backed off regularly while tapping. Taps that are often called "gun" taps have a bevel ground at the start to push the chips from tapping in front of the tap. They are made for machine use and should be used in through holes that have a lot of room for the chips pushed in front of the tap. If you have a blind hole, a spiral fluted tap is available that pulls the chips up, rather like a drill bit when used. This tap is also made for machine use. Either of those types of tap would be better suited for your drill-driven tapping. They are available from McMaster Carr and miriad other local machine tool providers. I really like your vidoes.
I am aware of this, and I have and use all of the above tap types. But when tapping thin material, I often do it 'wrong', as I did here, because it works. The material is thin enough that it doesn't build up very much chip before it's out the other side and the chip can clear. On thicker material then yes it has to backed to clear chips. But thanks for the comment.
@Jer_Schmidt And use a bit of lubricant on your taps and when you are drilling. Make them stay sharper and last longer. I'm sure you know this... Great build and cheers from Australia.
That is one sexy design! I especially love how you integrated the dust collection. Nicely done :)
Thanks! :)
Very slick design. Very professional video and execution of the project.
Thank you!
I think this is the most interesting youtube video that I've ever watched. You do some fantastic work.
+Bob Schott Thank you! :)
Man, someone in that video knows what he's doing haha! Or on this channel I should say. At this point before setting up any shop like contraption to hurt myself in while producing sawdust and scrap wood I just submerge myself in the knowledge of youtubers and you are one of the top ones. That saw/router table is so cool! :D
+PinkPonyOfPrey
Thank you!! :)
Amazing job mate, love your design and manufacture skills.
Masterful work! You obviously put a lot of thought into this before executing it.
Really amazing detail you put into that. Great job.
Thanks!
Excellent engineering and execution.
Thanks again for your reply, Jeremy. I found only 6mm metric sized clamps configured as yours are and those were out of stock at the moment. I favor 5/16" diameter threads for my jigs and fixtures. The alternative I found is even cheaper: POWERTEC 71165 Cam Clamp, 5/16"-18, 2PK
by POWERTEC $9.99 on Amazon Prime. Just thought I'd share with others who intend to use your fence design.
You are insane mate, much appreciated.
Wish you all the best in your future endeavours.
Thank you!
Beautiful detailed work, how do you not have millions of followers?
Directly to my favorites videos and future projects list!! So clean. Thanks man
Thank you!
Very well done young man! U have put the INCRA system to shame in the strength dept. & yet every bit as accurate. I think U have a bright future ahead of U in machine design & welding...
Thanks for sharing this.
Bill on the Hill,
Vermont... :~)
You are a genius!!! You did an amazing job, but kinda difficult for an ordinary DIYer like me. I'll watch more of your work to improve my skills. Thanks for sharing. You're awesome!
Spratlyk9 Thank you!!
Very nicely thought out and assembled! Now you'll be busy filling orders for everyone who wants one!! $$$
Or at least the plans for others to build them!
IT`S THE AIRBOURNE DUST YOU COLLECTED WHICH IS DANGEROUS THE BIGGER FIBRES YOU CAN SWEEP UP. AGAIN WELL DONE.
YOu're a genius. Lot better than that guy from Texas. Lot more action and less talk. Love it! Love all your videos. Plus you're not trying to sell anything.
I appreciate that. Thank you!!
Really good video of a well thought out solution. Lots of advantages to that. Well done.
Thank you!!
Very nicely done. Impressive. Minor details catered for.
That is just outstanding work!
Thank you!
Probably the most well engineered project I've seen!
MEN YOU ARE A GENIUS!!!!!
I like your table 👍🏻
Plural?
Should you not have said "MAN"?
wow out of all video iv seen for router table fence.. this is my fav.
Thank you!
Everything is good! Your project, performance, video edition and dynamics for show us.
Thanks from Brazil!
Thank you!!! I really appreciate that.
You're designing my new tablesaw/router table for me! As someone else has already said, this really is the best of VSCtools and Incra combined. Ideally I'm trying to build it with a alu extrusion for the TS fence (VSCT style), but your method seems to still tick all the boxes for jigs, hold-downs etc.
I see that you devised a different way of attaching the alu this time to avoid having to fish around for the allen key bolt holes!! :) Very neat - although I guess this method is not possible on the TS as you would want to use the fence on both sides of the saw.
Please post more vids... they are excellent!
Thank you.
Thank you! The router table fence faces need to be easy to adjust and/or exchange for wood whereas the table saw fence faces are permanent.
You're incredible Jer.
You got me. I watched again and see at 11:22 that you are reversing your drill. It was there, but I didn't see it the first time through. Evidently you edited the reversing out at other places you were tapping with your drill. A gun tap for through holes and a spiral flute tap for blind holes is still a good suggestion. Your table saw fence is great. Ask Woodman sells a t-square for the fence for $2-300 that is basically the same as yours. I thought I should use stainless for the spring piece, but the distance the spring is moving is so small even mild steel works. I haven't seen mine lose its spring. Has yours lost any spring? You have been using yours far longer than I have mine. Regards, Dudley.
Mine hasn't lost any spring that I can tell, it still works as it should. The only thing is I have to pull out on the bottom of the spring just a little to be able to lift the fence off the rail, but that's fine with me.
excellent set of skills you have there my friend. Great props to you. Keep up the good work.
Thanks!
Simply amazing. Creative engineering at its best.
Kevin Peres Thank you!
Smart guy, that looks so professional. Great job. 👍👍
Its heavy duty and very well done !!
You are very skilled. I tip my hat to you.
Thank you!
Extremely informative and well done. Thank you for sharing your considerable expertise!
Thank you!!
jeremy your work is good i must say .
WOW- that is incredible. I'm so impressed with your skills and ingenuity. I'll take a wild guess that you have done a little machine shop work in the past.
Thank you!!
Yes, I worked at welding/machine shop a couple years ago.
Very nice! I will whatch your other videos. Best regards from Brazil
Thanks!
mighty impressive, excellent work and outstanding quality!!
Thank you!!
This guy is not normal..... super genius
Uh oh...what's wrong with me?? Just kidding. Thanks!
Jeremy solo puedo decir que has echo un trabajo excelente. Eres un fenómeno. Saludos desde España.
