  • Half laps joints can be used for all sorts of joinery tasks and mastering them can open the doors to some more creative joinery options as well. This is just one of many ways to cut half lap joints on the table saw, but it's a good one.
    HERE'S AN EASY WAY TO MAKE THE SHIM:
    • Make Perfect Blade-Wid...
    TOOLS THAT I USED IN THIS VIDEO:
    The Flat Grind Blade That I'm Using- amzn.to/337590J
    A Less Expensive Alternative- amzn.to/2HrRFoI
    Another Less Expensive Alternative- lddy.no/rfkd
    (Please keep in mind that I do not own and have not used the less expensive blades. But these are Flat Tooth Grind ripping blades and at a much lower cost. It's good to have options!)

    Amateur woodcrafter. I used this technique tonight in some half laps I'm using for cabinet doors. Worked INCREDIBLY easy. Definitely recommend using a flat tooth blade as I had some extra sanding to do with the blade I used.

    A nice, elegant use of direct measurement to size the pieces correctly. Use of the shim is a plus and the step I've been missing. I gotta make me one of those!

    That is a great way to do half laps! I like it because I use a lot of reclaimed wood and the pieces are never the same width. I always flatten a reference side any way so thickness is never the issue.

  • @natesgt
    @natesgt 3 года назад +12

    Another great video! You could probably save a little time by drawing an 'X' from opposing corners on the end to find the center. I would just use the shim as a straight edge to draw the lines and that should get me dead on center or really close.

    Superb! I'm an old shopfitter who has been pottering around in my ever developing garage workshop. This is an absolute gem of a tip. Easy to execute and virtually free. I went ahead, a while back and bought the Banggood kerf-doofer when it was on sale at £15 Sterling. Well, it absolutely works, and I cannot complain with the quality of the accessory which is excellent - especially for the price!
    However, your tip makes half laps, dados and grooves a breeze on the table saw.

  • @JDDupuy
    @JDDupuy 3 года назад

    Nice job. Great that you showed using a single blade. I have dado stacks but like the flat grind single blade method and the use of spacers to ensure a quick fit without all the nudging etc. With all the blades I have it's time to add a couple more 24tooth flat top grind blades. Will use the link you provided which is much appreciated.

    This is so good. For those trying it be aware not too push to hard against the shim/fence with your piece. My first fits were so tight I could barely get them together but I stopped trying to be the Hulk for a second and they ended up fitting perfect. Hope that may help someone.
