    Great video, I love new ideas for wood working!!
    I often make my door styles 88mm and have yet to come up with a method for repetitive cuts, I just recently cut up 2 sheets of Mdf into strips using an adjustable square as a guide working from the top of the sheet down, if that makes sense, and now just writing this iv realized you're jig idea could work hanging off the other side of the track, this works best for me as then you don't need a packer piece under the track!!
    Thanks for another great and simple idea

  • @ivanteets7184
    @ivanteets7184 7 лет назад +1

    Peter really like how you created your jig to reference off the guide bar on the guide rail since the saw references off the same guide bar.
    My guide rails get battered around and the splinter guards get loose and nicked up. I am going to make some type of jig that I can pop on the guide rail to align with my marks on the wood to set my guide rails for my cut. I think your idea of referencing off the guide bar will make the jig easier to use. Really have enjoyed your videos and will watch some more of them soon.

  • @bighands69
    @bighands69 5 лет назад

    When working out on sites I tend to use engineered guides such as TSO. But when in the workshop I have hundreds of Jigs made up that I can use. The key is to have them organized so that you can use them as a system.
    Put a couple screws in that Jig and you could take them on the road.

    Peter, I've been a subscriber for awhile but I came across this jig idea from Jason at Bent's Woodworking. Jason's video convinced me to utilize the LR-32 system and part of it was your awesome jig, which he gives you full credit for of course. He has also convince me to incorporate metric measuring in my shop as it works well with this system. I'm comfortable with both imperial and metric systems, but just didn't want to invest in both systems, no real advantage or need to. But now I have too, thanks Peter, I see you as a co-conspirator in this!
    So, poor me, I had to go buy a few metric rules from Woodpeckers to support this endeavor.
    Oh, and as you can see, I decided to do a bit more than just watch your content. Thank you!

    • @10MinuteWorkshop
      @10MinuteWorkshop  3 года назад +1

      Thank you, and welcome! Yes, Jason very kindly gave me a shout for the little jig idea - simple thing really, but does exactly what it needs to! And once you get your head around it, metric makes a lot of sense. 👍

    Nice video, will make a couple of these , though I have been reusing the guides from my L32 system as a set of parallel guides for narrow rips , easy to set up on one end of the rail then duplicate the measurement and move to the other end , real quick and accurate every time .... means I get better value from the investment in the L32 kit 😊

  • @alexjames1146

    Thanks peter, another great video. The idea Looks pretty nice. I am looking to get a mafell plunge cut saw ( I might end up with the festool 75), with some rails and I will need to make the most of them. Seeing this will help me get together some more advanced usage ideas. Do you have any suggestions for someone with lots of circ saw experience but new to the plunge cut, as far as usage, buying and or accessories? Thanks!

    • @10MinuteWorkshop
      @10MinuteWorkshop  7 лет назад

      +Gareth Dirlam Mafell make fine saws - I don't have a huge amount of experience with them on work projects, but they certainly have the 'second mover advantage' wrt guiderail etc... They say they've designed out the need for a riving kniife, and I havent heard anything to the contrary, but I'd certainly be a bit cautious with them. As I say, not a Mafell user so can't really advise on accessories etc... 👍

    @kevingerald8286 4 года назад

    Hi Peter, having just invested in a Makita track saw I have rewatched this video with more interest than the first time! I'll definitely make this jig as long repetitive rips will be most of what I will use the saw for; I also have an old Dewalt radial arm saw which I love (I know you don't!) but will now mostly be used for cross cutting. Maybe as I use the track saw more the radial arm saw will be less used and eventually relegated to the back bench?

    • @10MinuteWorkshop
      @10MinuteWorkshop  4 года назад

      Hi Kevin. The Makita’s a nice saw, I have one also - must do a video about it! My problem with my radial arm saw was that it just wasn’t suited to a small workshop - just ended up being a big lump in the middle of the bench! Enjoy yours! 👍👍

      @@10MinuteWorkshop Ripping was always such a messy business with the Radial Arm saw until I made a dust collection device a few, which transformed the experience - I'd send you a video but I don't think I can add this to this comment. But now I will rip sheet material with the track saw, although I expect still to need to rip on radial arm for multiple repeats, like you use your table saw.

    Hi Peter, love your videos and I've learnt a great deal from you, watching them. I have a quick question, however, where did you get your tape measure. I've never seen one like that before and it looks very useful.

    • @10MinuteWorkshop
      @10MinuteWorkshop  7 лет назад

      Built By Chris Thanks! There's usually a list of the items 'used / featured in this video' in the video description, above, with a link of where to buy. I stopped posting the whole list as it was getting a bit unwieldy, and I do need to make a better arrangement - I have something planned👍
      That specific tape measure is an old version o a Swedish make, Talmeter. The company was bought out by Hultafors, and while they continued the line (now called Hultafors Talmeter - amzn.to/2pHwnbH (US: amzn.to/2oqLQc9) - the design changed and I do prefer the older, coloured ones - just easier to find! It has a flip-out sprung steel arm that extends the reach by 100mm for internal measurements, and a different coloured scale on the tape that accounts for this extra 100mm. Still great tapes, recommended.

    Would this be workable from the cut edge in you opinion? Reverse the hook to catch the opposite side where blade runs so you can gauge thinner strips then the width of the track.

    Hey Peter, great idea! But I, as a novice beginner, do not understand how the saw would ride on the track with the jigs in place. And the same question for the narrow strip jig. I am sure the answer is extremely obvious, but I would appreciate at least a hint. Thanks in advance! Serhat

    I am wondering if you have ever tried the TSO products that latch onto the makita and festool guides and make them perfectly square to the cutting surface. I have seen quite a few people online promoting them but was a bit shocked to see the price point. In Canada ... ONE of the squares is over $200 which is more than double the cost of the track I use. These seem very very expensive for what they do. Do you have any alternatives. I recently got the Makita track saw and track .

    • @10MinuteWorkshop
      @10MinuteWorkshop  4 года назад

      Thanks. I have to be honest I always thought rail squares were a bit of a gimmick until,I tried one recently - video 402, Benchdogs Rail square - ruclips.net/video/qik-UoZUAgg/видео.html. They’re all pretty pensive, though I had a cheaper one from DeWalt when I first had my track saw ~15 years ago and it was pretty poor. Certainly here in the UK there are plenty of options, but they all start at around the £100-mark. The TSO one is nice if you’re going to add/remove it regularly as it clips on, the Benchdogs one (and others) screw on so better suited to a ‘sawing session’. 5% discount on Benchdogs with the offer code 10minuteworkshop if that helps. 👍👍

    • @puddytat62
      @puddytat62 4 года назад

      @@10MinuteWorkshop I think one of your compatriots thought that anyone complaining about the price is usually the trolls and that the TSO rail is really for pros. Well I say that so is the Makita and their rails and when a square costs more than the Pro Grade rails then something is wrong for sure. Do love the bench dogs stuff but as I am in Canada that might be a challenge these days to get. But appreciate the offer. Funnily enough even some supporters of TSO point out that there should be some bundles needed to make them worthwhile as there are a add ons that really "add on" to the price. Keep in mind most of those reviewers get the items sent to them for free so to them the price is not an issue. I really do think TSO needs to rethink their market and decide if the want to sell 100,000 or just 300. On a related noted, do you find the fold down (hinge down) rail you use has some lateral movement at all?

      @@10MinuteWorkshop I remember watching that tip - very useful. That approach works when you take your guide rail to the stock, but it's a bit more fiddly when you have your guide rail clipped/fastened to your Parf Guide table and slide the stock into position beneath it. Your guides would be perfect in that scenario I think.

  • @WasimBarri

    Peter I'm coming from a table saw and I can't get my head around adjusting two independent guides to setup a rip cut based on two pencil marks, this could lead to a taper rather than a rectangle. Do you constantly get perfect parallelism and accuracy for your rip cuts? I guess this is where a table saw comes into its own but your experience and proficiency with a track saw would help. A great video with simple scraps, thank you.

    • @10MinuteWorkshop
      @10MinuteWorkshop  5 лет назад

      Hi John. Yes, I have no problem lining up a rail against two pencil lines. If I’m doing a lot of repetitive cuts then parallel guides work well to save Measuring each time, or just a pair of sliding squares against the splinter guard works as well. 👍👍

  • @OysterBait
    @OysterBait 7 лет назад

    Peter, I'll echo everyone else's kudos regarding the genius of your design but have a minor technical question. You've mentioned you don't use your table saw much, so how do you cut your thin strips of MDF such as the 32mm strip that goes between the raised channels in the guide rail? They're too narrow to use the parallel guide jigs in the video, and it would seem the most straightforward approach would be to cut them on the offcut side of the guide rail which would require a different jig design. Simply put, I guess, do you have a parallel guide jig design for strips narrower than the guide rail? Or maybe another trick for making one-off narrow cuts with a track saw, considering the offcut being on the "wrong" side of the saw? BTW I tried to sign up with Patreon but Facebook and Captcha got in my way. I'll try again later.

    • @10MinuteWorkshop
      @10MinuteWorkshop  7 лет назад

      +Gary Carpenter Hi Gary, and thanks! Narrow rips are one of the things I do use my little tablesaw for, but tbh if it's just a one-off I do it with the tracksaw. No magic to it, just measure carefully and allow for the kerf of the blade - you may have seen me use a green 2mm plastic packer for this in some of my other videos??
      Now you mention it though, it sounds like just the candidate for a little jig! 😄 Hope that helps, Peter 👍👍

    • @OysterBait
