How do you adjust for deeper cuts 0:15
Can this cut 3/4hardwood 3/4” hardwood with Just 1 cut depth
@@stevemumford1999 I seriously doubt it. And even with a standard router, I don’t know if I’d try to do that in one pass
Do I need a plunge router for deeper cuts
@@stevemumford1999 the plunge part doesn’t really play into it as far as depth. You can just drill a hole as I did for this little router. But I would still not try to take out 3/4” in one go no matter what router you use
Why not use the COMPASS in the first place
@@franksellitti4784 because it was for a dog bowl where I didn’t know the size and had a VERY thin lip, so it had to be super accurate, as I was cutting out a hole to hold it in a raised dog feeder. You can’t measure across the bowl with the same accuracy as this method
My question is, should I have thos AND a track saw or just one or the other?
@@V1N_574 this tool requires a straight edge to track on. So if you’re cutting a lot of new plywood with factory edges, this is a quicker way. But with a track saw, you have to line up the cut
This product is rubbish saw holder is plastic
Why not scrub a circle first then you have the centre where the divider used to swing around in the centre of the circle
@@dougmaz1 I needed to find the center of the dog bowl shown in the video
Thank you for posting this, gives me inspiration to build my own bench soon!
@@HunterMabeeFilms be sure to see my vids on the legs I built for my workbench. Had I known that lap joints were so easy I would have put them on this bench too
I jus make a square and go diagonally corner to corner.
@@saranevillerogueart9627 there are lots of ways to do it. This one works well on any size circle best for me
Isn’t there a way to find the centre with dangling string? I remember doing it but can’t remember
@@jaw1970 there may be, I haven’t seen anyone mention it in the comments when they gave alternative methods. There are many ways to do this.
you are making it so hard.... make your circle- make 3 marks, anywhere on the edge, (with out a square)- connect those marks, and make a triangle (without a square)- mark through the middle of each line, and the spot where they cross is the center.
@@soonersciencenerd383 there are lots of ways to do it. This one works best for me
Thank you so much and to think it was there all the time what am I like thaking you once more.
I know this is four years old but I have my fingers crossed how would you find the centre on the bottom of of a soda can ?
@@spraggerdogwilko333 I’d trace it on paper, like I did the bowl and find the center on the paper. Then lay the paper over the bottom of the can and mark through the hole
Thank you so much. I've searched for three days looking for a video that explains how to use the rip cut and nothing has worked as well as your video. Thank you
How is this an easy way when it requires so many steps that require precision? Just cut out the circle and fold it half twice (like someone here said). Now that's easy. You may want to retitle your video to: a precise way to find the center of a circle instead.
There are lots of ways to do it. Use what works for you
I'm 70, I've just learned something. Terra Australis.
you should make multiple passes. taking out too much at one time will wreck your bit
Learned something new today. I was wondering why I couldn't find screws large enough to fasten the larger casters. Lag bolts are required for these. Easy. Just installed four casters on my movable shelf in the garage. Thanks again!
Jesus, I didn’t understand the first 10 words you said. “I’m going to start at the top also we have a pretty wide angle…” huh?
What a good idea! That mower has to be stored somewhere and the space above it is inevitably wasted. But not with this idea. Will definitely build it. I will modify a bit though. I have a second lightweight Makita battery operated mower that I plan to store above my heavyweight Honda Buffalo mower. So I'll have to build a ramp for the second mower with the handle folded down. Problem solved. Thanks for sharing this idea.
You’re welcome. I used to have the mower in front of another small shelf there and got tired of reaching over it or having to move it to get to the stuff on the shelf. Plus the other shelf was to small to hold everything. This solved both problems. I think your stacking mower shelf sounds like a great idea!
Cut the circle, fold it twice. First year mechanical engineering, or compass, or wow like five more ways, measure a line and cross it.
Yep, there are lots of ways to do it. This one worked best for me with any size circle
Thank you!
Super helpful, thanks for this terrific lesson!
Thank you
Good video explaining the cuts, thanks for the tips. My question is how you join the boards together?
I put glue on the edges and then tape them on the outside. Then I use a framing strap to clamp them together until the glue dries. Some folks use brad nails too
That 's great... another use for my framing strap. Thanks@@HeartwoodArt
Great idea
I am so pleased with it!! And it’s very stable too
Great explanation ! Loved the results - thanks !
They’re really fun to make!
A lovely, smart lady who knows her stuff. Thanks for posting. I found this video. Very helpful.
Thank you for your kind words. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Possibly the easiest way only requires a piece of paper larger than the circle and a pen a ruler would be quicker though it would take a minute or less with only pen and paper. -draw the circle with pen and paper. -fold paper 4 times to construct a square with sides the length of circle diameter. -fold square in half twice and the intersection of those folds is the middle. The parameters of your task is not specific, though in this video you use pen and paper.
And just like that, I learned another thing I wish I knew 20+ years ago... Thank you!
The bisector of the perpendicular bisector of any cord of a circle defines the center.
Of course it does. But nobody remembers their high school geometry class
SURE WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE TO HAVE YOU FOR A TEACHER WHEN I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL....🎉🎉🎉🎉 Watching from Houston, TX.🇨🇱🤠
I know they have to teach formal geometry in school, but would be great if they also taught an informal version of practical things, or even for art and do it like this without so much jargon
@@HeartwoodArt Very Happy to have found you, am now a member, will follow. I will also share you with others. 😄
This is so confusing, moving on, ,my brain doesn't work this way, thanks
If you don’t like measuring, another way to do it is to get a wide bottom board. Then glue a skinner top board to it. Then place your saw foot against the top board and cut off the bottom board as you saw down the full length of it. That will create a straight edge on the bottom board that is parallel to the top one.
@@HeartwoodArt Thanks so much for taking the time to reply. I appreciate the generosity so much
You made it difficult on yourself. You didn't need to draw all those lines. You had the centerline where the square met the outside of the circle at 1:24
There are lots of ways to do it. This works on any size circle and I had better luck with it than other ways, for accuracy
You are an absolute hero for making this video. I have been trying so hard to figure this thing out and I finally get it after watching your video. Thank you!!!
I’m so glad to hear it!!! I love using it.
The easier way is to just use the compass. Now if you don't have then this method will work.
Agreed, and this method works on circles bigger than you may have a compass to do arcs large enough with
Thank you for your videos! I accidentally drilled pocket holes too deep. Then I found this possible dowel solution: ua-cam.com/video/kKFlALWvVeY/v-deo.html. Would it work well for holding plywood blocks to legs?
It may work. Will come down to having enough glue
🍪
Draw one with a compass and where the pinhole is...thats the centre😁👍
The point was to be able to find the center of a thing, like the bowl, where you don’t know the radius
Sorry, a tutor at tech taught us how to refine/filter our speech/writing with precision and accuracy by showing/demonstrating how most of the statements we make can be, reduced in length, improved in language and tightened in accuracy. Once again sorry.
Two parallel chords, equidistant from the circumference, the diagonals from each cord intersect at the centre of the circle.
Yes, but not many folks will remember what all of that means, or the terminology
The easiest and fastest way is to draw a square the same width as the circle, then draw a line from corner to corner, giving you the centre.
Depends on how big the circle is. This way works on any size including really big ones
A better and simpler way is a straight line drawn touching the edge of the circle slightly longer then the diameter of the circle., then using the square to draw another line at 90 degrees again touching the edge of the circle, repeat two more times times and the circle is in a square 2 lines drawn from corner to corner of each corner of the square and where they intersect is the centre. Now that’s the ‘easy way’.
There are lots of ways to do it. This one works best for me
The centre of a circle is always in the middle of the circle.
How about this: put the point of the square on the edge of the circle, swing it to the biggest measurement on the circle, then put a dot at exactly half of that. That’s the center.
If your square has small enough increments, and you can eyeball being on the diameter, maybe. But that’s a lot of guesswork.
Doesn’t matter. If you’re touching any point of the circle and swing the square or ruler to the maximum point of the opposite side (as noted on the ruler), half of that is the center and on that same line.
Of course it’s on the line. Have fun being accurate with getting that line to be at the max diameter and then having enough increments on a square to mark the exact center, especially on a larger circle.
Max diameter is the easy part because you will see the line getting closer and farther as you sweep from a point on the circle. This is how I do it with a dial bore gauge to measure cylinders in an engine to machine them. 🙄
Fine, if that works best for you, by all means use it.
A good way but not the easiest way if you have a set square. Just search on “Thale’s theorem” for what has to be the easiest way.
Measure the bowl and divide by 2.
I prefer using a compass set to the radius dimension (1/2 the diameter) to find the center.
That works if you already know the diameter. If you’re working with a random dog bowl to make a feeder, like I was, that may not be possible
Want to find out the center of the universe?
I’m having flashbacks to high school trigonometry. Oh the headache.
