I watched with great interest the two videos at the JS3 web site and went through their other materials. Thanks for letting me know about this. Certainly the advantages of this thing are that you don’t need to know any math (although it isn’t as difficult as they make it out to be, and you still need the equations to calculate how much material you will need), and you don’t have to tie up a saw for a period of time to retain the settings. On the other hand, I thought I detected a bit of wobble in the device and I wonder if they didn’t have to do some tweaking that they didn’t show you to get things exactly right. All I know is that it takes me a whole bunch of test builds with tiny tweaks to dial in a perfect setting on our miter saw. I’m going to show that process in my next video where it took six builds with scrap wood to get it perfect. As I got close, I was tapping on the saw housing with a small box wrench, and not moving the saw enough to see it with my eye. With 14 staves, any adjustments you make are multiplied by 14 times, so it’s tedious as heck. But hey, if the jig works, it would beat all my messing around!

This was really helpful. Thank you!!
Thanks so much!
Great! Writing to send my appreciation and to encourage you to continue with your videos.
Kudos, well done!
Thanks so much!
Have you tried the JS3 from TranquillWoodcraft? No math, easy to use to set up the saw angles.

I would never use curly maple for a waste block!
Por favor envíeme la tabla de segmentos
creo que me pediste que te enviara la mesa de segmentos. no estoy seguro de qué mesa quieres.

Had to mute your high end saw blade and your MM system since many have no clue how to measure with MM being we learned the US custom system.
