Tornado Globe Part 2: Cutting Segments on the Miter Saw

In Part 2 of this beginner's project on making an open segment globe with a tornado pattern, this video will address cutting segments using a miter saw. The purpose is to show how to do this safely and with techniques designed to speed the process.

My table saw is currently out of commission, so I need to work with my chop saw. This is very helpful. Thank you

Great video Lloyd, thanks for doing these. They are very helpful and inspiring. I feel as though I should get to the shop right now

Dear mr. Johnson, what a wonderfully inspiring and clearly explained video. I'm based in the Netherlands and as soon as I've got the flip shop stop I,

Fastest hands in the west at 12:08. I wish I moved that fast! Nice work and great ideas!

I especially liked the suction accumulator for getting those tiny pieces away from the saw. Nice work aid and safe too!

I'll start working. Please, continue to make video's!!!

Yes, Part 3 will be constructing a table saw sled that will allow you to cut multiple segments at a time at either a 5.5 degree or 8 degree angle for the 24-segment and 18-segment SegEasy plates. Due to my work schedule, though, I won't be able to start on this tutorial until late October.

Great video, thanks for sharing! I was wondering how you got the angles perfectly correct on that MDF board that you place on the miter saw? Just trial and error or is there something more?

Work has a way of getting in the way of everything....

What ever happened to the shop vac to pull parts away from the saw.

[@terryvance9390]

Is there to be a part 3?
