    I really liked this video and I have made some for me and my son. The only difference between the ones I made and yours is that I made the rabbet with a dovetail router bit so that the bottom of the of the rabbets are at an angle and that prevents them from slipping out when the screw is loosened up. That also tightens them up against each other when when you tighten up the screws. Keep up the great work.

    Just build this jig because your version is so easy to make without many special tools. I even did the rabbet with my tablesaw and it works perfectly. I also like that a sloted hole for the screw is not necessary because it clamps nicely.

Imagine my dismay when I figured out that I need a crosscut sled to use it and I don’t have one! Anybody wanna buy one? I have two, made from nice red oak. I even put flex seal tape on the bottom of the washer for added grip.

    The larger diameter washer is sometimes referred to as a "fender washer". You an find them at most hardware stores (True Value, Ace, Do It Best, etc.). Most of those have the section with bins of assorted size bolts, nuts, etc. that includes fender washers. I don't think the big box stores have that option.

      Felipe Flores Felipe the flat head screw is set according to the thickness of the blade you are using. That will then allow for a perfect first cut once the kerfmaker is set based on the width of the “ tenon”’piece.

    Hey Colin.. I’m just curious regarding the screw used as the blade width.. is there some reason to use a screw, rather than just cutting one of the pieces a blade shorter than the other (let’s assume we can accurately make that cut).. In so many of these kerfmaker videos the screw component is ubiquitous, so I’m just curious why it’s preferred.. thanks for all the content!

    great video, but can you explain the purpose of the screw and how far it has to be out of the wood when you use the jig? It sounds like it has something to do with the blade width, but I'm not 100% there. Thanks!

    • @DonDIYProject
      @DonDIYProject 5 лет назад

      You're right, it has something to do with the blade. Because every saw blade has a different thickness, you'll need to adjust the screw to the same thickness of the kerf of your saw blade.

    • @halsonger1317
      @halsonger1317 5 лет назад +2

      You set the wood part of the jig on one side of the saw tooth and adjust the screw so that it's dead even with the other side of the saw tooth. Every saw blade you have will be a little different in that width so you need to tweak it as part of your setup. The screw provides a micro-adjustable offset to compensate for the blade width. If you didn't have the offset the width of your dadoes made with the jig could be off as much as 1/8". You can set the screw head slightly proud or shy of the tooth edge to make your dadoes slightly looser or tighter if you desire.

    • @safelinefleet6633
      @safelinefleet6633 5 лет назад

      Your're right - it has something to do with the blade. It is essentially to reduce the reference edge by a thickness just equal or very slightly less than the thickness of the blade. Without the screw reference, you would end up with a dado that is the width you want , plus the thickness of the blade. That screw will now reference your cut to be less than the set depth, and you will end up with a dado to the set width, which essentially takes the calculation and guesswork off the process.

      As it is required by law to have a motor brake in European sold table saws a dado stack does not normally work because the extra mass could make the locking nut come loose. Though some cabinet saws have another solution so that a dado stack can be used. Axminister in the UK has one type that can host a dado stack.
