    Top tip: When you fit the first aluminium track, fit it about 1" further in than you need, then run your saw down it and it will cut the working edge perfectly parallel; no measuring = no room for error. 😃

      Also thought that might be an idea. Another improvement (although much harder to do, I guess) would be to cut the jig width slightly undersize and put a strip of the self-adhesive splinter guard on there. As used on track saws.

      Also, instead of making it so big on the off cut side, you can add another L bracket and make it for your router for grooves, dadoes, and rabits. You can use the side you don't need for clamping it to your workpiece. Or you could make it for your jigsaw. Two jigs in one.

    Nice jig! Additional tip: Before you screw the aluminum track to the wood, use a smooth file to ease the sharp edges on both ends of the tracks. You'll save yourself from leaking the valuable red stuff all over your shop. Cheers!

    I appreciate the fact that you use a big old circular saw like a lot of us, as opposed to the fancy cordless models you see in lots of videos.
    Between this and your CSG 1000, I’m starting to think I don’t need to get a table saw-which is making me happy.

Thank you for your not only a very useful jig but a very entertaining instructional, I purchased a cutting guide a few years ago for those straight cuts with a circular saw but this jig is way better and far more accurate.

  • @TheBittner1
    @TheBittner1 4 года назад +15

    Love the project, Shane! Might I add three tips/additions?
    1. Before using the SC1000 on a board for the first time, run the saw through once with no stock underneath. That way, in case your jig isn't exact to your blade, this will cut off any excess so it won't transfer the error to your first cut.
    2. Attaching something to the underside of the jig so there's less chance of it sliding while making cuts. Something like sandpaper, grip tape, or foam padding. Something thin enough your saw's baseplate won't slip under you jig.
    3. Add some furniture wax to the guide. Less friction for your saw, and lessens the marring of your jig.

    I wish I would have found a saw like this years ago! It does everything that we have asked of it so far. Works great ruclips.net/user/postUgkxjpBI8OOeUXib_iT7UomCrQ-uauwZJ62c on cutting composite siding and plywood sheathing. I probably would not try to use it all day cutting 2X boards, but it's just the right size to throw in a job bag vs. your conventional heavy circular saw. Operating instructions very clear. Came package well. I would definitely recommend you buy this for a friend!

  • @russellstevenson2093
    @russellstevenson2093 3 года назад +13

      @TheLastPharm 3 года назад +1

      Good point, but then you run a risk of losing your 90 degree factory corner, which is kinda the whole point of the jig. Don't get me wrong, you're absolutely right about the perfect saw line calibration, but for the weekend hobbyist this solution might give the best results with the least fuss.

    • @andythebritton
      @andythebritton 3 года назад +4

      @@TheLastPharm but the accuracy of the cut angle is already limited by how well you've fitted the guide rail. If that's not perfect, the factory edge isn't going to help. If I was to make this, I'd use a framing square to set the angle of the guide rail rather than trusting to pencil marks against the base plate of the saw.

Will mainly be working with ply sheeting, researching the tools I might need, table saw, track saw, mitre saw & circular saw, I could easily spend R45k/😬, not in my budget. I bought the circular saw (a decent Bosch) & made this plus 2x your straight cut jigs, can now do everything I need & it cost less than R3k!!!

    Brilliant! I’ve seen some videos where the aluminum guide was mounted on the plywood a bit wider than the width of the circular saw. The excess was then cut off by running the saw along the guide. This makes sure that the aluminum guide and the track edge are exactly parallel. Your second short piece of aluminum is novel and squares everything up! I will definitely incorporate your idea into my track saw guide.

    Whilst the jig I built for my circular saw is not as fancy as yours (mine is just some hardboard and a strip of pine), the idea to make a jig came just in time for my recent project (building a sim rig for racing games). I had never been able to cut particularly straight with my circular until I built this jig - what a HUGE difference. I used quite thin hardboard for the base as I had some cuts where holding and clamping was going to be difficult. The thin hardboard allows me to staple the jig into place before making the cut.
    Thanks for the great tips!

    Hey Uncle,
    After I built this jig my neighbor told me I cut really square. At first I thought he was making fun of me, like I was a nerdy square. But, a couple days later I realized he actually was talking about the cuts in my plywood.
    Wow, my jokes are getting to be as bad as yours.
    But, seriously, I love your channel. I just recently discovered it. I hope you're still making videos.

    Managed to build my own version this weekend. Had to puzzle over the instructions a bit as I soon realised Makita saws don't all have the blade on the same side (ie your handle is on the LHS, blade to the right, mine is the opposite, blade LHS, handle on the right). Figured it out eventually! Made a few mistakes but all a good learning curve for a newbie DIY-er. 👍🏼
