It's a shame that hitting the like button more than once is not possible. You know what; you are the best woodworking channel from your continent. I'm serious. Your every video is a gem. You are a school to me. Thank you.
I haven’t seen any recent video notifications from this channel. Hope all is good and well with you Jody. Of the many woodworking UA-cam options, I really got a lot out of yours, every time. 🙏🏼
I've been making a lot of extreme miters-like 61.5º-and having to build crazy jigs for proper workholding. Your double-sided tape trick is a life-saver. With that I can tape one fence, make my cuts, then increase the miter angle, cutting the same fence over and over without needing to screw/clamp anything. You just saved me DAYS of work! 🙌🙇
Thank you for this video! I'm doing staircase chair rail and frame molding and wasted about 16ft. of material trying to figure out how to cut a 64-degree angle on my miter saw. You saved the day....my project came out perfect after watching your video!
Simple, straight to the point, and no fluff and stuff. Thank you so so much, I think this tip will help me make my projects just that much better to help me make thousands. I promise, if I make more money just because of this one trick, I'll come back and pay it forward. 🤝 I promise.
You just made me feel smart. I needed to make a 60 degree cut on my saw that maxed out at 45. I came up with that idea all by myself. That geometry law about the angles of a triangle adding up to 180 is what helped me. Happy now that my geometry teacher was a real hard ass.
Dude,,, the way you explained things makes it so very easy to understand I would have said and cut boards all day long and never came up with a 65 degree cut but after watching you do it, it's so very simple thank you for explaining to us lesser experienced wood butchers how to do it
Freaking brilliant! just freaking brilliant! I am so so so so (yep 4 sos) glad that you decided to do this content creator thing full-time. You help so many folks in very real ways! THANK YOU!
A real clear and concise explanation. We do have jobs where we have to cut a lot of extreme angles. We use the second method that you showed because of the frequency that we need to make these cuts. The 45 degree false fence is usually held down by the mitre saw clamp although I think we will try “your” tape method. That false fence is about 1” thick which allows us to mount a toggle clamp to it. So, we introduce the piece of trim or cladding to be cut to the saw and clamp it down with that toggle clamp; cut and release. The only advantage of our method is speed if you are making repetitive extreme angle cuts. If it’s just one or two and we didn’t have that false fence to hand, then tape would be the answer.
I am amazed at the way you come up with woodworking tip`s. It`s is a tremendous help to us that are novices and i `am sure woodworkers that are well knowledged in woodworking.
First I appreciate that on your channel you get right to it! None of this crap of talking stuff as filler, shut up tell me what you want to share nd move on, AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU DO! Thank you
You're a talented woodworker and craftsman, but I have to say that you're a better teacher... and I intend that as a compliment. At this point, I never click, 'Watch later' on your content because your whole channel is nothing but solid, great stuff for those situations we all have in the shop where we scratch our heads and wonder how we're gonna finesse our way out of an impossible situation.
@Jeremiah Bullfrog That's how I've seen literally every other person do it and it looks terrifying. I'm more afraid of my miter saw than I am of the table saw or router though so, there's that. Ha!
Spinning-ninja-star-of-death on a hinge is definitely scarier than spinning-ninja-star in a fixed position. Router definitely has more metal between the spinning bit and the user. Yeah, probably good to be wary of the miter saw.
@Roberto Perfecto This is the tape that I use: lddy.no/m666 I also made a quick, helpful video on the most efficient way to apply it, if you're interested: ua-cam.com/video/dVoRiGBJarM/v-deo.html
@@InspireWoodcraft Your technique changed my double-sided-tape game forever, so simple and so genius ... I blame public education but thank you for adding some common sense to our lives.
As a VERY beginner woodworker, I am slowly starting to understand these principles, but what happens if I want to cut an acute angle on something larger or that hangs off the table a bit more like a 4 x 4? I am trying to make a steeple cut on the top of a 4x4 and I don't have a work table or anything like that and my miter saw is on a stand. How would I do something that needs to be cut on all four sides?
Newbie question: the manual for my saw says the bevel angle must be set at 0 degrees when using an auxiliary fence which I assume includes 45 degree jigs. So the question is can you safely make compound cuts using this method? I did a mock up / dry run in my case and the blade seems to have a clear path straight through. If the workpiece is clamped or screwed into the jig and the jig is screwed or clamped to the fence, it seems like it should be ok.
What brand/type, (exactly), of two-sided-tape, do you find works best? I thought of doing this long ago, but did not think the adhesive on any of the double-sided tape that I had experience with, would be sufficient for work-holding. Also, this tablet will not show the "description" that you mentioned... Hee hee, or maybe I just do not have this tablet "quite enough", figured out yet! Thanx!
How would you make this repeatable? For example, if you wanted 65 degrees on both ends, but you wanted that piece copied 4 times and all are exactly the same length?
Im trying to make flag display cases. The angles are 22.5 degrees but need to also be identical in length. Also to note my pieces are cut standing up not laying flat as i need the depth once put together. Any good ideas on this. Im having a bit of a problem as they all need to exact in length also..
Any chance you can do a detailed video on your chopsaw dust shroud? Really captures a lot more dust compared to the standard shrouds on the desalt saws. Is it homemade or an aftermarket kit? Cheers
@John Hoyle I've been getting that question a lot lately. I will try to make a video about it, but essentially it's just a piece of silicone mat that I cut and cupped behind the blade and into the factory dust port. Currently it's just held on with magnets. It works surprisingly well because of how wide it spreads out. The only downside is that there is a chance an offcut can get flung in there without a way to escape the blade. That's only happened once, but once was enough.
Why not just rotate the board by a full 90° and subtract subtract the steep angle, set the saw to that number of degrees? No secondary fence needed. Double stick tape still highly recommended though. 90 - 65 = 25…
You and Elon Must are, obviously, both aliens sent down here to better humankind! Of my 127 sub'd channels, I look forward to your videos more than any other.
There are 2 angles to each board. Acute and obtuse. You have them labeled wrong. Also the miter saw setting doesn’t have a 90 degree setting. So when you say “set the saw to 90” it’s confusing. Keep in mind, if you’re putting more than 1 piece together, the angle will be different. Explaining if you’re cutting a roof skirt board or build a 3 sided frame would help.

Very well explained. Your videos make me regret not learning more geometry in my younger years. Very helpful tips.
Your double side tape trick for acute miter cuts with jig saved my sanity! Thanks!
Another way is to just clamp it down.
Good advice! I prefer the second way

Nice solution. I will keep it in mind in the future. Last time I had to make a narrow angle cut I ended up using the tapering jig on my table saw.
Thanks for the straight forward help.
That tape is the key! My dad always holds it by hand and it's an accident waiting to happen. Thanks for showing a safer alternative.

Hello, I hit the link to your double-sided tape and I got "this site cannot be reached. What is the name of the tape?
The second method seems easier, and it's more reusable for other angles. To make it formulaic: (mitre saw set angle) = (desired angle) - 45.
Will that work if you want an extreme angle on the edge as in 22.5 degree when making a flag box?
Yes I've made one just like a flag display but for a bandana that my best friend that passed always wore
@@chancesmalley6708sorry about your friend. I did think think you wrote banana though. 😂
Thanks man asthma sucks took him at 26...I don't think a banana would fit In a triangle very well tho
Ok but what if I need a cut longer than can be done on a miter saw?
For me the 2nd way is better because it allows me to make rapacious cuts
Why not just rotate the board by a full 90° and subtract subtract the steep angle, set the saw to that number of degrees? No secondary fence needed. Double stick tape still highly recommended though. 90 - 65 = 25…

Elon is a turd. He's worried about making mars and his wallet better. Stop the praise.
but you are not showing how you placed the piece of wood you cut to get the acute angle . you are showing the finished MDF cut piece!!!
