    With Ryan's ruclips.net/user/postUgkxy_pn55PK60wAV3X_C_RoLS_67mNonoCE plan I was like one taken by the hand and led step by step from start to finish. Thank you very much Ryan!

    Probably the best Ryan's Shed Plans on building a shed is hardly found ever . ruclips.net/user/postUgkxcLVQopTIucrxiVRQA0khLGQEnDVKCSMG And Ryan's takes the mystery out of different types of foundation options, etc. He even shows how to build shed with different designs. Very comprehensive, covering different roofing materials, siding, etc.

    YOU ARE THE BEST! Tried to figure out a 135° miter cut. Got very frustrated & gave up. Now i can cut it. THANK YOU!!!

    The frustration I had today trying to cut two 20 degree angles on my mitre saw was a true nightmare but this video of discovered sooner would have made the job a breeze. Thank you for This extremely clear and educational video. Subscribe? Hell yeah!

    Ok, as a finish carpenter for 20 plus years I know the trick with the jig to cut acute angle’s. I also know that 0 is a 90 degree cut but to count the degree’s backwards from 90 never occurred to me. Awesome idea!!! I’m not easily impressed anymore with finish carpentry but this really helped me gain a new and different perspective. Thanks so much for revealing your knowledge. Much appreciated, my friend!!!

    This makes a world of sense and is appreciated very much.
    I've been trapped into a huge (for me, with little experience with tools) project that requires replicating odd angles on the house's original deck. (If they'd built a rectangular deck, I'd be cruising down Easy Street.) For a host of reasons, not buying a miter saw such as the excellent model shown here. That's a shame, because this is much easier for a beginner to conceptualize on this professional setup.
    Instead, I have a first-rate circular saw. It's harder to conceptualize making these odd angles work on my DeWalt DWE575SB, and the Diablo TrexBlade works flawlessly. However, a stack of miscut ends is accumulating and I turn long planks to and fro. These planks have been ripped to 3.5" to serve as fascia, making this more complicated.
    Perhaps I can watch this again ... and again ... and glue to concepts for correctly measuring angles into a fevered brain. Many thanks for your video! Kudos!

    "SAWSET PROTRACTOR" is the most accurate miter finder out there. No Math. No gimmick.
    Do the comparison.

  • @Woodhoek
    @Woodhoek 6 лет назад +104

    You can make It easier: in Your example a 120 degree angle. 180-120= 60 divide that by 2 is 30. This 30 is than the mark on the machine. So you don't have to make new numbers by the marks.
    So always start with 180 minus the wanted angle and then divide by 2. And use the normal markings on your saw

      I know a 45 degree is a 45 degree, but the 180 - 45 degree ÷ by 2 does not give me 45 degrees🤔

    • @benjamindover7434
      @benjamindover7434 6 лет назад +20

      45 is an acute angle so just divide by 2. Anything over 90 is obtuse so you minus it from 180 then divide by 2 to get your miter. 🤷‍♂️

    • @foreverwood1963
      @foreverwood1963 5 лет назад +3

      It would actually be 180-90 divided x2 to get 45

  • @casperwallace9685
    @casperwallace9685 3 года назад

    I waste so much wood trying to get the angle right, on projects I am attempting to do, I get it right sometimes but thats more just luck than skill.
    I measure and measure and measure and cut 20 times still get it wrong.
    This made so much sense to me.
    Now it's just practising it so I don't have to keep thinking it through.
    Why they don't put this stuff on the actual mitre saw is beyond me.
    I will just have to keep watching this a few times to get it into my head.
    Bless you....thank you.

    • @casperwallace9685
      @casperwallace9685 3 года назад

      Can I just suggest a few things.
      # Pencil doesn't show up well on camera.
      # Give people time to digest what you have done. Don't just skip ahead.
      # We need the camera aimed more at your hands and what they are doing than you actually talking to the camera. (Sorry..lol ) We can still hear you tho.
      # Why don't you angle the mitre saw to 45 degrees you just move the blade to 45, what's the difference.
      # Alot of my cuts right now in this project (Tall planter pot, with trims around top and bottom) are small, around 5 inches, so your jig of 4 " won't work well for me on those cuts.
      # I see you don't clamp wood to your mitre saw so how do you hold small bits of wood on the mitre without taking your fingers off with it.
      thanks

  • @ajkustoms5386
    @ajkustoms5386 4 года назад

    I dont get why people thumbs down a video like this. Im literally trying to make some cuts like this and because im very new to using a miter saw, im having difficulty and i couldnt understand why!!! Never occurred to me that the scale is 90°! Why dont the manufacturers make the scale in the way you have shown?? Or at least put both scales on there at the same time. Thanks for the tip!!

  • @V4p3rcl0ud
    @V4p3rcl0ud 6 лет назад +20

    Couldn't you have just cut both pieces at the same time then just turn one piece around to get the angle?

    • @mevstormshot

    • @chiefpokemgood1752
      @chiefpokemgood1752 6 лет назад +3

      Sometimes it ain't always that easy, like if you have some crown, or base, or any kind of trim that can only be cut to fit one way and not reversible, it's much easier to turn the saw than it is to flip a piece of crown moulding upside down and balance the 12' stick with your right hand while you try to cross over and cut with your left.

    • @V4p3rcl0ud
      @V4p3rcl0ud 6 лет назад

      Parry Tillman well no, it doesn't work for all situations and angles, but in this situation he could have. Also some saw horses or something can solve that "balance" issue for you.

    • @chiefpokemgood1752
      @chiefpokemgood1752 6 лет назад

      m1k3c0urtn3y43v3r this is true. On a framing site then yeah, set up a saw bench and go to town, but it's good to know both sides of the saw just in case
