Very neat jig. Love the fact that it takes the math out of segmenting. May look into this jig in the future. Thanks for the explanation and setup tutorial you've provided.
@@CarlJacobson Anytime. I’m a maker on here as well, so I’m here to support as many others as possible with good content so we can inspire as many others as possible. 👍🏼
Must have setup jig if you like wood turning that makes it so much easier and accurate. Keep up the great work as the goal is for us to continue to inspire others to build something awesome! 👍🏼
Also can be used for setting up boxes with splayed sides and/or different number of sides, cutting crown molding.... anywhere with a compound miter cut.
This looks great, I’ll take a look straight away. Been following you for a few years now, since I started turning, just thought now that I’m half decent, I’d say thanks..so.. Thanks.
Pretty cool. It would be interesting to make a segmented vase or bowl where each segment increased in length 1/2" or so as it went around, so the edge curved upward in the circle.
I actually had fun doing the math to figure out the tool... But I was pretty sure nobody else would. If you watch the campaign video, the math that's shown in there is the actual derivation of the angles for any splay angle, and any number of sides... I'm biased, but I think the tool is a little snazzier :)
That looks like it would be great to make staved pieces even if you don't want to turn them. I assume your saw table has to be level for this to work. Take care. Bill
Yeah, your table saw does need to be level, and you need to make sure your miter slots / top are calibrated to your blade. When I made the first prototypes, I couldn’t get them to work (even though the math showed they should have!) because I had never taken this step with the saw! And yes, you can make any staves or splayed type piece - I even used an early prototype to set up cut crown molding !
I remember Matthias Wandel came up with a way to figure this out (not a jig, but a way to calculate the angles). Very cool device. I may have to look into this.
Matthias did put together a great spreadsheet, and I used that often. Even if you have a very accurate angle plate, transferring the measurements accurately to the saw is hard! I've screwed up my fair share of pieces before I came up with this jig. This device uses long edges and faces, instead of a vertical line (like you would use a T-bevel) to align things. As long as you take your time, it ends up being pretty easy!
Hi Carl, That is a really great looking jig. Do you know what the retail price is likely to be. I have looked at the site but it doesn't give any prices for when it goes into manufacture. Take care Carl. Cheers, Huw
The approximate price going into manufacture (assuming I keep producing them in small batches on my own, through a US small-shop manufacturer) would be in the range of about $235 - it is listed on the site. Batch-manufacturing through a campaign like this allows the price to be lower, as some of the fixed-costs are spread out. The pre-order is $190 (before shipping and taxes). Thanks for taking a look!
Curious, if your table saw top is not level, how does that effect the bubble level setup? I found it funny Carl said to glue up half of the segments then sand the 2 to fit! Now that’s accuracy! Especially if you have an odd number of segments! It’s a clever Monkey though!
@@bennygermanyx - I’m still trying to figure it out! The level is correct with the world, but the table saw may not be. It must not be that critical, hence the sanding to fit. I as thinking if the level was important he might have used a “Wixley” type device. Do you have any ideas?
@@MJ-nb1qn - I am the inventor. You do need to have a level tablesaw - but you should always keep your saw level and calibrated. If you set the jig up right, you don’t need to glue in halves and sand. I have done 7 and 11 sided pieces with it, and there is no gap if you take your time to sweat it up.
@@MattIannacci - Thanks for your input. I’m very interested in this jig. I take it you would recommend the jig? If you use it often, is it touchy to dial in? Thanks.
Carl, I must have missed it, but I can’t find a link to Matt’s site to even consider getting one of these. Could you please send me the info. Thanks. It looks like a neat well made tool and would save time even for math nuts like me (I have a EE degree with a minor in math).[but anything that saves me breaking out my calculator and/or my CRC Math Handbook is intriguing]. Thanks again. Stay safe and well to keep the videos coming. Cheers, Tom
Hi Wayne! Here's a link, Just go to the right side and down to the jig. You can pre-order it. www.indiegogo.com/projects/tw-js3-jig-easy-set-up-for-compound-angle-cuts#/
Andy Klein did a video, too, where he showed an example of one way to do it that doesn't need a lathe. Me, I'm partial to making round things, so I use the lathe :)
I’ve followed and enjoy your tutorials. After watching this I’m suggesting you consider taking all that catch all stuff off your table saw fence. If something falls into your blade and shoots back at you you could get hurt. It’s just not a best practice.
sad i have tried 3 times with indiegogo to get this keeps just telling me ops tried diff credit cards no helP indiegogo said to contact campaigner well you can't
Carl, That is one cool tool. Gonna go check it out. Thanks for demonstrating and explaining.
Yeah I think he came up with a winner!

When I first saw someone making a vase like this, I thought this is NOT for beginners. Now it is! This is genius!
Right!? and no math :)
Looks awesome! Can't wait. Thanks for sharing! Be safe, be cool! Beach, NC
Thanks Bobby!! Have a good one!
Cool Jig! Thanks for demonstrating it.
Thanks buddy!!
Great looking jig.
Thank you buddy! It's slick!!
That is a very cool item to help set up quickly, Thank you for sharing your video.
You bet! Thanks Mark!!
Love it...hope it won't be too expensive!

Wow that's an awesome jig! Thanks for sharing! Take care and GOD BLESS!
Thank you so much Stephen!! Have a great weekend!
Wow. Maybe now I can actually try some staved segmented stuff. Amazing.
It's pretty slick!! I'd love to see a skateboard bowl out of it ;)
Solid tutorial, liked, subscribed, and hit the 🛎!
Awesome thank you!

lol..Thank you Steve!! What type of things do you turn?
Pretty cool. It would be interesting to make a segmented vase or bowl where each segment increased in length 1/2" or so as it went around, so the edge curved upward in the circle.
That would be really cool.
Lol "roofs to bird houses." That's literally the reason I jumped on this jig!
Thanks for sharing. Looks great.. Hope you and your family are staying safe and well.. Full View and Like..
Thank you so much Allen!! Stay safe and have a great weekend!
I can attest that it is an awesome jig!
You did a great video on it Andrew! I think Matt has a winner here!!
Great tool
“...you had me at no math...” love that. Thanks for showing us the tool. Great video.

@@MattIannacci I will try to watch that video. I do like math. 🙂
How cool is that! I hate math too lol. Watched Gary at Papa1942 turn a segment bowl today. He has a super cool homemade jig to cut segments.
Very cool! I'll check it out :)
Cool tool, Carl. Cheers, mate.
Thanks Ron! Have a good one!
Very cool jig. Thanks for showing it. TTFN Sid.
Thanks Sid!!
That looks like an easy jig to use even for me being an amateur lol great video Carl 👍🏼👍🏼

@@MattIannacci Thanks
@@MattIannacci Junt another thought. Could you do the setup on a level surface and then use it even if your table saw/miter saw isn't level?
New sub here. I've seen your other videos and were very helpful. Thanks for sharing
Thank you, and thanks for the sub!
Genius!
I concur :)
I appreciate your kind words! This was a serendipitous case where the math talked to me :)
I remember Matthias Wandel came up with a way to figure this out (not a jig, but a way to calculate the angles). Very cool device. I may have to look into this.
Yeah I linked his video in the description, but he lost me with the math lol

HI carl super jig.
Hey Manjit! I think so too :)
This device presumes your saw base is level, something I've never cared to check.
That is amazing, but $190 amazing? Idk not to me, maybe if I lived and breathed woodworking I'd pick one up. I wish this campaign success.
If you do this style of segmenting, it's a huge time saver.
Thanks so much for the well wishes, I appreciate it!

I just looked it up to make sure it worked and it looks like the website isn't working anymore. I'm sorry!
I like the jig but I’m a little confused on how to make the bottom for a bowl as an example. How would you make the top or bottom straight?
Thank you Mark! After you have it glued together, you put it in the cole jaws and turn a recess for a plug.

So how can I purchase one of these jigs?
They should be on the market soon, they just got the crowd funding done.
Gostei
Obrigada!!
I go to his link and it only shows a video and nothing else
The campaign is over, and he's in the manufacturing process. They should be on the market soon.

I really didn't think about that, goo idea.
SIMPEL. I will just have my buddy at NASA make one in the morning.
I had to go back to web site twice, $29,758.00 each ??? What the.....?
That's how much money he's raised to start production on them. I think they're $190 each.
Sorry pal that is the worst demo you have ever given.
Sorry I disappointed you :)
sad i have tried 3 times with indiegogo to get this keeps just telling me ops tried diff credit cards no helP
indiegogo said to contact campaigner well you can't
I'm not sure, but I think the campaign ended. He should have them on the market soon for sale.
