Nice jig Rob. I like the addition of the sacrificial board in the middle and adding the angle finder.
THANK YOU for noticing that. I had written in some clarification for why I did that but cut it out due to the overall length. That sacrificial board is crucial as you'll destroy the jig within a few uses. Now I just need to grab a 4" x 6" x 1/2" scrap and I'm good to go.
Great jig Rob. Thanks for your entry and good luck.
Thanks buddy!
You come up with some of the coolest jigs I swear! Great build! Keep building and I’ll keep watching!
Wow, thanks Zac! I'll keep the light on for you. 😂
A complicated build to be sure, but obviously works very well! Good job!
Thank you, I appreciate it!
Ingenious 👍🏻
I LOVE IT ROB!!!!!
You never cease to amaze me!! I have approx 13 of your genius jigs on my list already, let mE CATCH UP :)
Kevin, thanks man, and the feeling is mutual. I love what you're doing on your little piece of land out west. Just waiting for that phone call so I can bring a sleeping bag and a tent.
👍🤚Rob awesome build 😎 you really do come up with some great creations and a professional step by step anyone can follow. Thanks for sharing have a good week take care 💕
Hey you too and thanks for the compliment! Keep bringing me more of that Florida habitat!
Two boring videos in a row?!😆 Neat jig Rob! The head on my drill press swivels for making them fancy angular type holes but I rarely make any!
Yes, I'm incredibly boring, I know. 😂
Yeah, my Ridgid drill press table swivels as well, but I really didn't want to have to get into the habit of squaring it up every time.
But you brought up an interesting question that I had been thinking about: Do we not make "fancy" angular holes because they're not needed...or because we haven't programmed our brain to think of how to use them?
I say that because the measuring cup rack I made could very easily have used straight pegs...but using the angles gives it a slightly classier look.
I dunno, something I thought about during the build.
Thanks brother!
The drill head itself tilts on my radial press so the table can stay level for angles up to 45. I know exactly what you mean about resetting the table after tilting, it's a hassle!
Super cool design. Well done. Maybe you could put a slot into each of the back props, and a hand-wheel clamp between them instead of the g-clamp. But again, really cool design. 👍👍
Thanks Rob! I really like that idea (I really do!) but the amount of pressure the drill "press" uses makes adding slots complicated. I'm saying that after adding that one slot which really weakened the wood strength. It's hard maple, so I'm not that concerned with it, but drilling with a 2" forstner bit probably couldn't happen with any other slots.
Honestly, I need to find a better clamp. The clamp I used was cumbersome and either hit the drill press column or the inside of the jig. If you have any suggestions, let me know, I'm always open to ideas.
@@MakeThings Yeah, It's tricky, given that you really want it to be infinitely adjustable, rather than step-wise, so a ratchet system wouldn't really work. I'll have a bit of a think, and if i come up with any ideas, I'll let you know. Cheers.
@@robmatthewswoodturning4988 Thanks, I always appreciate upgrades. If you figure something out I'll credit you in a future video with the upgrade. And yes, you could make positive stops but it makes micro adjusting a little more difficult.
Very nice Rob you are really good in making jigs!
And you’re the lathe maniac! Still looking forward to more videos from you!
@@MakeThings Yeah thanks. I'm lazy you know.
Great ingenuity mate 🔨🔨👍👍👍🎥
Dirk, thanks buddy, always love it when you grace my channel. 👍
Great Jig...😀
You are a master at making jigs. By the way, your new videos don't show up in my notifications. I wonder why?
Hey thanks! I don’t know, I seem to being having that problem as well. Maybe UA-cam is having hiccups?
nice jig mate! specially for repeatable works and preserving the press table unmoved, now know best. subbed and liked!
Thanks man, very much appreciated!
I once tried to drill and angled Forstner hole... 😬
Didn't work so well I imagine. :(
I scared the crap out of myself once that way and didn't think it was possible. This works really well though, I promise!! :D
@@MakeThings Yea, looks nice and solid. I was making a phone stand and wanted a little round notch for the power button. Ruined the project :(
Very intelligent idea and build and wonderfully comprehensive vid. Good job mate! (Had to turn the sound off for the secind viewing though - that wee tune was fun only for the first two minutes!) Incidentally, what was on the protractor that you so assiduously scraped off?
Haha, thanks. It’s hard matching music up so I try to loop it. Sorry it didn’t work for you.
I have some regrets on grinding that off instead of just put tape over it...but I didn’t want the brand name on it.

If there is some strange copyright law involving a certain union in the future, how far does copyright go? Will displaying someone else’s company logo be taboo?

I like Jimmy Diresta’s answer best (not really a quote):
“When a company wants to pay me to use their tools, I won’t paint them white.”
That's a great idea and jig
Thanks man, I appreciate it.
Hello nice upload dear friend than you for sharing!!!
Thanks buddy!
Hey man awesome jig as usual! That tractor you put on there was super pro! 😎 Question - is the ruler used for measuring or just for the angle dial? And does your drill table itself tilt like some do? (I guess not?) And oh yeah I get what the insert is for and tell me if I'm wrong - it's a spoil board so you can drill it's brains out and just replace it when it dies?
Yes, yes and for measuring the angle. My drill press table does rotate but it's currently locked in position I don't like using it because I have to square the table (unsquare tables are soooo evil) and you run into the column too often with longer stock (at least mine does as it shifts left and right and not fowards and backwards). Short pieces would definitely work but otherwise it's kind of a useless feature in my shop and set up.
Thanks southern hemisphere Rob!
Hey Rob, what's the deal with the compasses you use? I've never seen anything like them.
Keep up the good work ... :-)
Thanks John. It’s an iGaging digital compass. It’s great for getting a good precise sphere...as long as you don’t mind the lead sliding around.
Great channel. Just found you, I also make things on my channel, I also have about the same subs, haha. You have great camera presence, sharp editing, your channel will keep growing, its great!
New sub here!
Thanks man...I’ve been lurking on your channel...and although I don’t have a Trooper, I like your energy! You’re doing a great job yourself!
Where would I find the plans for this, please?
Still working on them. I’ll pin it in the comments and put the link under your comment so you can find it.

Too slow, too much music, not enough explanation. Gave up!
Way!! Way! Too complicated for a novice wood worker
