This is a great simple jig, especially for a beginner. And since beginners would be the primary viewer of this video, it would be very helpful to mention the actual dimensions of your cuts so they would have a good starting point. I do understand that they can make it any size they want, but as a beginner, it's good to have a point of reference to start from. Just a thought. Thank you for sharing.
That is nice music you have underlined the video with, of course that is entirely subjective, but I rarely ever find a video where I don't find the musical accompaniment irritating and rather would have none.
Very good explained , the little details you mention matter the most . Keep the good work going . You could do a tutorial for finishes plus sanding for each finish or wood , and that scraping , and hand planing . That is were i get lost in most of the videos :)
Got a similar pkg of toggles from Amazon, the 1st week of Feb 2021, for about $21+ for an 8 pack. Good jig. One tip is to take the stock hex nuts off & swap out with wing nuts. Nice little video!
When designing the jig, one must make the overhang 'less' than the width of the board you are jointing ... worth mentioning before you start cutting the overhang. Good video, well done.
Hi I’m pretty new at all this. I just found your channel and I am happy to see a jig I actually can make and understand it’s use. You are amazing at describing and showing everything clearly. Now all I have to do is buy my first larger saw. All I own is a scroll saw and a jig saw, but I have hopes to put together a small scale functional shop. I’ve been watching videos for weeks and have learned a lot. I’m hoping to learn what saw would be the best to start out with. I’m thinking perhaps 7 inch miter saw and a 5 or 6 inch compact circular saw with a laser guide. It’s been many moons since I’ve cut large wood but I’m very excited to learn. Thank you for sharing your talents. I feel inspired. Hello from Connecticut!!
Thank you very much for your kind words! A circular saw is probably the best starter saw. I bought my first tools 2 years ago on Black Friday. A miter saw and a circular saw. I would definitely pick up some tools on Black Friday. There are some amazing deals. Thanks for the support!
So, if I need to joint a board narrower than the overhang from the outside of the rubber nubs to the outside of the base plate, then you would have to cut off the baseplate some at the same time you are jointing, correct? Or should you just make the base plate narrow enough to joint narrow boards, say a 1x3? I need to make this jig tomorrow and I'm thinking of using the factory edge on a generic piece of shelving board/melamine.
Yes you could just cut the base plate at the same time. You could also make a more narrow jig. Or you could get different clamps that extend out farther. You may need to make different jigs for different widths. Thanks for the question!
If you're talking about clamping it down in the jig then it doesn't matter. As long as the entire length of the board is sticking out so your table saw can cut it, then it's going to cut a straight edge because you're referencing the jig off of your table saw fence. Thanks for the comment!
Well, as you had flat board from 2 sides with just rough edges, then it seems to me that you do not need any jig. Just run this against the fence of your saw. Jointer is helpful when you have no reference surface at all (but you had two already). However, if your boards are reasonably flat, but you just need to joint two boards with rough edges, then clam those together, faces against each other and then cut the edge. No matter how many little imperfections you might have, when you unfold those then those two edges will match as they were cut at the same time.

One of the best jigs I've seen. Great idea!
Thank you!

Hey, just wanted to let you know you look exactly William Osman, so I had no choice but to come and comment.
Nice jig btw!
HAHA. Thanks Dave

This was very helpful and you made it simple to follow, keep up the great work and thank you so much ; )

@@jtswoodworking4857 cool, thanks
What happens if you don't clamp the board down straight?
If you're talking about clamping it down in the jig then it doesn't matter. As long as the entire length of the board is sticking out so your table saw can cut it, then it's going to cut a straight edge because you're referencing the jig off of your table saw fence. Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for the comment. Yes you are right. Not the best example in the video
if i want to joint 2 meter long boards, my jig will have to be at least 2 meters, is that right?
That is correct!
Might sound crazy but what screws are you using right there
Thanks for the question! I believe they were 1 and 1/4 inch construction screws.
@@jtswoodworking4857 yeah they looked prefiect for some projects I have and always lookn to try something different
I'm pretty new to wood working and I've tried this not once but twice and my boards just aren't coming out flush. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
What do you mean by “not flush”? Could you explain further?
@@jtswoodworking4857 yes sorry about that, by not flush i mean after I cut the boards and put them together, there is a small space between them
Maybe wood movement? What kind of wood are you cutting?
