This is a must have table saw jig and can be used for tapers or straight line cuts on rough sawn lumber. Drop me a comment and let me know what other features you would put on yours.
That's awesome. If you want any more assistance, I have very reasonably priced plans for it on my website. Thanks so much for the comment. howidothingsdiy.com/plans/ols/products/table-saw-taperingjointing-jig
Watched all the watch through, nice job! I have this jig and was thinking about doing a video a couple months back, great minds think alike. Jigs make it so much easier for us builders, along with increasing accuracy and efficiency!
Thanks so much. I sell the plans on my website for $5 if you need any additional guidance. Thanks for the comment. Let me know if you have any questions. howidothingsdiy.com/plans/ols/products/table-saw-taperingjointing-jig
Nice job sir. Ever think about adding a stationary board in the other miter slot to create a kind of zero clearance? Just something I thought of watching you cut 👍
It’s a game changer making cutting tapered cut or making a straight edge a breeze so you can flip it over and have two straight edges only using a table saw. 👍🏼
Great video but the thumbs up after every little part is finished is SO annoying! Almost every UA-camr does it and it is WAY OVER used! Thanks for sharing your time and talent!
Hi an excellent presentation. I noticed there were almost any saw dust when you were working with table saw. Is it because of your Dewalt saw extractor? If so , it almost captures 90%. Would you agree with 90% , if not what would you rate it ? Could you post the model number of your saw extractor ? Can I use 6RPM ridgid shop vac instead. I would really appreciate your feedback. What is the length of your jig ?
Sure! Here is the dust extractor amzn.to/3Rl4KkN. Yes, in this video, it was reducing dust by maybe 85%. I've also noticed that the type of blade I used makes a difference. Aldo zero clearance insert helps a little. The red one I use is a combination blade, and the silver one is for ripping. I don't remember which one I used in this video. I'm pretty sure I made the jig 48" long. I have plans on my website if you're interested. howidothingsdiy.com/plans/ols/products/table-saw-taperingjointing-jig. Let me know if you have other questions.
Why not let the jig run against the table saw fence? Seems it would be easier and more accurate that way. Also it would be possibe to cut wider boards.
That is another way to go. There would be pros and cons to both. I actually like having the guide rail instead of having to think about keeping it tight against the fence while cutting.
My gosh there has got to be a better way to secure the t tracks in rather than grinding down the points of the screws and the underside nice and smooth…could you just use ca glue ? Shorter screw? Thicker plywood base?…..thanks ,,still love the overall design
Haha, yes, for sure. Use a little shorter screws. I was just working with what I had. I wanted to show my mistake and show how I corrected it. Thanks for watching!
48" long, but you could make it shorter if you aren't working with pieces that big. Here are the plans if you're interested. howidothingsdiy.com/plans/ols/products/table-saw-tapering-jig
Sorry, I don't do that, but I appreciate the interest. I do have plans available on my website. I hope this helps. Thanks. howidothingsdiy.com/plans/ols/products/table-saw-taperingjointing-jig
Thanks! Ya, I should have maybe done that on the table saw. At that point, I had just gotten it, and my brain wasn't thinking table saw yet. If I were to make this again, I probably wouldn't have gotten the miter saw out. Haha

Definitely on my list to make. I think I would mostly use it for tapered table legs. Great build and instructional.

You have to make one. They're awesome!
Great build! I love how chill the music is. good vibes. 👍
Thanks! All the music is my cousins'. I have a link in my description if you want to check out his channel.
I’m making this one for sure. The easiest and most sensible homemade taper jig I’ve seen to date and trust me I’ve been comparing. Bravo!!!

@@HowIDoThingsDIY Ok cool. I'll take a look at it now.
Definitely a must have jig for a tablesaw!
For sure!
You're making all the things on my list to make lol
Haha. Well, I'm trying to knock out some of the basic things I need. The next two I have planned will defiantly not be on your list.
Nice job sir. Ever think about adding a stationary board in the other miter slot to create a kind of zero clearance? Just something I thought of watching you cut 👍
That's an interesting idea! I could but to be honest, with the one side fully supported it left a very clean cut. Thanks!
hello guinea master, nice content, you are doing a good job, congratulations master👍🏻☺️🛎
Thanks.
Great video and awesome tips. Going to have to build one now, well . . . when plywood prices come down.
Oh my God, right?! I just spend $77 on a 3/4" sheet. I actually hear they are going up like 30% in July....
What a great jig. That is going to come in really handy.
It’s a game changer making cutting tapered cut or making a straight edge a breeze so you can flip it over and have two straight edges only using a table saw. 👍🏼
Thank you, Sir! I expect to use it a lot when I build my new studio desk!
It looks like this could double as a edge jointing jig or if you needed to put a straight edge on a live edge board. Very cool.
Exactly. I plan to use it for this as well!
AWESOME JIG. THANKS
Thanks and you're welcome!!!

This is a great video, such great workmanship. Oh what music are you using for your background?
This is my cousins' music from his UA-cam channel. There's a link to his channel in my description. His channel is Tyler M.
@@HowIDoThingsDIY ah ok cool, thank you. It's very chill music.

Can the toggle clamps you use handle a 1-1/2” thick board (e.g. a 2x4). I need to make one of these.
I have them adjusted almost all the way down for 3/4" board. Haven't tried 1 1/2 but you could add a spacer.
@@HowIDoThingsDIY you can buy the bigger one at harbor fright for $ 1.49 each I just bought some the other day

How long did you make the taper jig
48" long, but you could make it shorter if you aren't working with pieces that big. Here are the plans if you're interested. howidothingsdiy.com/plans/ols/products/table-saw-tapering-jig
@@HowIDoThingsDIY well sometimes I need it longer I seen how you made it was just wondering how long you can make it
I would think you would make it as long as you want. Even 8'. You would just need to double up on everything.
@@HowIDoThingsDIY okay thanks for sharing
No problem.
I have the same saw can you make me one?
Sorry, I don't do that, but I appreciate the interest. I do have plans available on my website. I hope this helps. Thanks. howidothingsdiy.com/plans/ols/products/table-saw-taperingjointing-jig
Great build, but minute 7:30. Yikes
Thanks! Ya, I should have maybe done that on the table saw. At that point, I had just gotten it, and my brain wasn't thinking table saw yet. If I were to make this again, I probably wouldn't have gotten the miter saw out. Haha
