Do you like my "Parallel Guided Power Saw?" seen on you tube. Do you wish to join me to manufacture it. On the video you may see some pyramids I cut with my saw, which cannot be easily cut with another saw. The manufacturing company does not want my saw, so we have to start our company to make it.
incredibly helpful video, unlike many of the videos on UA-cam where (for example) you build a jig to turn a drill into a drill press but you need a table saw and a miter saw to do it. thank you
I took beginner woodworking classes at our local high school about16 yrs ago for 3-4 yrs. I learned the basics and built a few children’s beds. In fact my first project was a sleigh style toddler bed for my daughter. Then I built a full size for her with potbellied spiral posts that a guy with a Mill made for me. Then I built my 2nd baby’s crib all 3 at the high school because I only had a miter saw. Then when 2nd baby was 6 mos I bought all the major machines including the Legacy Ornamental Mill from the guy who made the posts for the full size bed. I later donated it to the school and bought a bigger one. We started traveling a lot so i really wasn’t getting to build anything. Although, reliving my childhood through my kids I built a bed that was a house on a frame for a 2nd home. Given we were spending more time there I wasn’t doing hardly any woodworking so my skills weren’t advancing. Life evolved to where we were spending the school year at 2nd Home only being at home with shop during the summer. Which a couple yrs ago we moved to a different summer home and my husband built a shop big enough for me to have a full size shop (I only had one bay of our garage at the other house). When we moved they just put my machines in the shop along with a lot of boxes of misc junk. So last summer I waded in and cleaned and organized it so it was actually functional. In all the jostling around the jointer’s fence had gotten out of square and I had nobody to help me straighten it out and the Manual wasn’t very clear, so I thought I’ll see if there’s something on UA-cam...I knew there was a lot on UA-cam but it blew my mind how much. I have a lot of other hobbies so don’t spend a lot of time on the internet except if I need something I can’t buy where I live. So I started watching all these woodworking videos and it opened up a world I had no idea existed. (Very) long story short, of all the people making videos I recently came across yours. In my opinion they are excellent at every level! Keep them coming....🙃
Reasons why I love this channel... 1. Glen is amazingly creative. He is so creative that when am watching his videos, even at ungodly hours, I feel like I just need to get up and do all he does. 2. He makes things simpler. I have seen the most complicated methods of making tools on UA-cam but Glen does it amazingly. 3. He knows there are those that are just into this and he JUST KEEPS GOING. As in he makes more videos. It is amazing how dedicated you are, Glen. I appreciate your work Glen. You are a blessing. I always look forward to your videos.
I really enjoy watching your videos. it's nice to see someone that doesn't cut corners and also isn't afraid to say hey this part can be done better. you sir are a true craftsman.
I was trying to decide between a mitre and a table saw but was afraid they were going to collect dust. This gives me an great alternative and will let me see how much woodworking I end up doing. Incredibly good idea, excellent thinking on your part!
I agree, I wish these videos were around when I was in College. I took a woodworking class, and it was like everyone just sort of expected you to know how to use all the tools. I was completely lost among those huge machines. Here on UA-cam you have guys like DIY Creators who show you step by step how to complete jigs, and make some really useful tools using power tools that are not too expensive. I want to get into woodworking, but I just can't justify spending 700 bucks for a fairly decent table saw. This jig should do quite a bit in terms of wood cutting needs.
Do you like my "Parallel Guided Power Saw?" seen on you tube. Do you wish to join me to manufacture it. On the video you may see some pyramids I cut with my saw, which cannot be easily cut with another saw. The manufacturing company does not want my saw, so we have to start our company to make it.
I agree with 738polarbear, this is the best crosscut jig here on UA-cam. One solution for the T nut coming out is to possibly have a machine shop cut you a little piece of steel with 4 small screw holes, one in each corner. As pressure is exerted on the nut, it will be distributed evenly and the T nut will stay in place as long as too much pressure is not put on it.
It's beautiful. Very professional build. Another upgrade possibility is making the 45 degree fence variable for other degrees of cuts. Another thing is the metal fence on the saw will probably wear grooves on the wood fence after time introducing play in the slide, so another upgrade would be to replace with Teflon, UHMW, or some variant of plastic stripping. I like the idea of a jig that doesn't have any attachments add to the saw so that you can pull it out and use it for other cuts quickly. You gave me great ideas on a miter station and also one for ripping full length plywood. This is probably what I'll build because a name brand compound sliding miter saw and table saws like Makita are pretty expensive for us in third world countries. This is a great way to make quality cuts at a fraction of the later day tool investment. A++ build and excellent howto video! Thank you.
I built this jig last week - really useful! Thanks for the video and material lists and the easy to follow instructions. Looking forward to the next one!
Not only have I build this incredible jig, but I've been using it for the last few weeks to make a table and a garden bench! Thank you so much, @DIYCreators, you rock!
One quick suggestion... whenever you have to cut a bolt, put a nut on it before you make the cut. This way, if you hack a thread at an awkward angle, thereby making the bolt unusable, the act of removing the nut essentially rethreads the bolt. Otherwise, this is a great video and a great channel!
Great tip! Thank you! And by the way, you should also put some masking tape where you are going to cut. It makes the cut much easier: the saw blade stays on the cut line. It works on tubes too.
Add a little epoxy to the T-nut in your stop block to keep it in place, because after several uses with it coming loose like that will definitely erode or wear the block and become really loose and sloppy where it will no longer hold and fall out. Better yet, cut the block in half then chisel out a hex area just large enough to hold a nut. Next, epoxy the nut into place, glue the block back together and reattach it to your stop. This will be far more rigid and free of any wear issues. I hope you find this helpful. Peace!
On your stop block, if you Countersink the T-nut and turn that piece around so the T-nut runs along the back fence. That way, when you tighten the stop block, it will pull the T-nut into the wood as it was designed to do. Awesome jig. You could use a similar design with a router to make a dado jig. Thanks for sharing.
Knowledge is power. Great job of explaining this project! Cutting where the blade is down is far more safe than cutting up. One should always try to use safety push blocks but we always do stupido things like pushing the wood way too close to the saw blade without push blocks and I say don't chance it! Cutting where there is no way to get your hands close to a saw blade to me is essential for 98% of the human race! In woodworking safety should be number on in planning any project!
He truly skillful with his tools. He has inspired me to start home projects that I was too scared to try before. I have truly become a handygirl. Thank you Glen!
I have used UA-cam for years yet never even posted a single comment. Watching your videos has certainly given the need to comment. I have just made this today after only holding a circular saw for my first time about a month ago (usual job is in an office). You have changed my DIY quality to another level. Thank you for your great videos and advice!
Awesome jig and video. Thanks for being thorough and for not using $10,000 dollars worth of tools and materials to build it. This jig will be way cheeper than purchasing a cordless miter saw.
If anyone wants to build, ensure you know how deep your blade will cut @ 90 degrees. For example, some models will only cut at a depth of around 53mm/2", larger models may cut up to around 85mm/3 1/4". The height of your front and rear support blocks and the thickness of your saw sled base material will all need to be considered. E.g. if your saw sled base is using 12mm/1/2" ply, that will give you a max cut area/depth of 41mm/1 1/2" (for the smaller models), or 73mm/2 3/4" (for the larger models). P.S. Metric is so much easier to work out..... :)
Amazing jig! The Grandaddy of many similar ones. I will be following this design as it looks great for making small cuts just below 1cm. You just saved many of us from buying sliding Mitre Saws! God Bless You :)
Now all i need it do is make the base about 4 inch higher so I can whack a 4x4 in there and cut it by 2 passes 😁 good enough miter saw alternative for weekend woodworkers like me.
I like your idea you just made it a little bit bigger you can almost make it like a table saw got a lot of room for creativity there I like it and thank you
Built one very similar years ago because had to trim out over a hundred interior doors. It was a lot better than carrying a heavy chop saw up and down everyday. Looks and works great nice job
freaking awesome. Totally gonna build it, thanks for this. Also at the end where the t-nut was comming out, the simple fix for that is to just put it on the other side slightly recessed so when you tighten it you are always putting the pressure inwards on it. I have seen many others do just that with those things. Again, totaly freaking awesome, and you have that other video where you have thet multi/use base for table saw, router, jigsaw, and other. I can't wait for that vid. I am new to woodworking and these things can really help as they all seem cheap, full of good leaning for me, and save me on space as that is at a premium for me. Oh, and I subscribed, cuz your awesome.
I so wish I had found your page first!!! I just finished making one, as shown on another page. I am going to give it away! Today I will be building your's!!! Thank's so very much for making and shearing your wonderful project!! If your ever in the big town of Perkins OK, look me up!!!
Very well done ....... I have gotten some great ideas from your video.........I will be making this jig for sure...........Thanks................And as always ..........Protect Your DIGITS ....Gregg
I can tell a lot about how a craftsman thinks by watching what he builds and how he builds it. I think you would be a natural manual machinist and enjoy it. Consider taking a machine shop course.
This is what makes your videos great - they are ultra useful and smart, but they aren't way over complicated. Don't get me wrong, these builds take work, but it's something a noob like me could try.
Awesome!! I am going to make one of these in order to maximize my ability to make frames for oil painting canvases and possibly, paint frames....Thank You, sir!!
I think for what you have done is really very good but for me, it is hard to do it. Anyway thanks a lot for sharing your talents in wood working. God bless you.
This is the best Circ Saw Jigs I have seen. I am going to build myself one of these and set it up to mount to my workmate bench. I have a small space in a single car garage for my tools so I can't buy larger items.
I love this jig. I just made it tonight and I added one extra part that allows me to add and extra 12 inches to the fence if I need it. Wish I could post videos or a picture to show you.
Excellent jig. i upgrade it by cutting 2 slots on either side of the base which allow a f-clamp to goes through so i can clamps small piece (work piece is 3 or 4 inches wide). can rip cut to 1/4 inches.
Brilliant and elegant. Trying to help my grandkids get started in woodworking from a couple of thousand mile away and no tools to start with this goes a long way to helping help them. Common sense is always the highest form of intelligence! Well done. Montana Forester
Ok Glen, watched it for the 9th time. I think I can do it myself. Since I do not have (the room for) a table, this is the best alternative I've seen on the 'U-tube' , keep you posted , keep your fingers crossed 😉
This one is the best of your Limited Tools series and it is a delight to watch your videos. Thanks for sharing. This must be in every DIY shop with limited budget.
Desde Trelew, Chubut , Argentina te agradezco por compartir tu sabiduría. Muchas gracias y muy buen proyecto. Lo intentare hacer en mi workshop. Ganial
This is awesome. Here's one thought about that last T-nut issue: you could put a screw or two in to hold the T-nut in place. Very cool jig. Thanks for sharing.
You are the man, I cannot thank you enough, great project, video & very clear. New to woodworking with limited means and only one arm I need all the help I can get. Takes a week to do a days work. THX
Just what I have been wanting to make. Very useful video and no unnecessary waffle that so many people seem to want to put in their videos. I will be back again to see what else you can help me with. Keep up the good work. Tony in England.
Probably the best cross cut circular saw jig on You Tube.
agreed!
Do you like my "Parallel Guided Power Saw?" seen on you tube. Do you wish to join me to manufacture it. On the video you may see some pyramids I cut with my saw, which cannot be easily cut with another saw. The manufacturing company does not want my saw, so we have to start our company to make it.

Put the t nut on the inside.
Rich Litton I was thinking of that too. would be a minor adjustment.
@@mcasady1 how would you attach the tightening dial if you did that? It had a t nut as well.

I have truly become a handygirl. Thank you Glen!
me too :D
Very nice project Glen, I appreciate your matter of fact, no nonsense, explanations in your videos. Keep them coming!
This is EXACTLY the tutorial I’ve been looking for 🥰
Nice little hack for keeping the T-Nut in place. Insert a small wood screw right beside the T-Nut so that the head overlaps it.
What a great tip - thanks so much!
Or put the "T NUT" in from the other side, just make sure it is FLUSH with the timber.
Thinking the same thing. 👍

T-nut goes on the far side of the wood so that it is pulled towards the wood when tightening. Could add some epoxy on yours to old it in.
Amazing jig!

Not seen this design before, looks like a really cool idea. Thanks
I like your channel. I'm from Poland, its very nice movie and very good job.

this man is of another level...and he call his creations 'DIY' ... lol
Dude, you're awesome!! Great tools and videos. Thank you for sharing them.
Great work, not just the jig buy your detailed explanation of your technique. Thanks for sharing.
My new sensei, this is awesome
Love the jig and the video is very easy to watch. Thanks for posting.
Great video bud.Thanks for sharing.
I just spent a lovely day in the sun making your jig! It works a treat. Thank you so much.
Dude...super smart. i really like this idea! imma have to get started on it as soon as i can
Awesome video from start to finish. I am definitely going to have to make one!

Just flip that stop block around so that the T nut is on the inside and it won't slide out! other than that, great build!
I have seen some using a small screw to hold the T-nut.
Wouldn't have need to change the t nut on the dial too?
I like your idea you just made it a little bit bigger you can almost make it like a table saw got a lot of room for creativity there I like it and thank you
brilliant idea glen my man, think im going to build one.
Thats the best idea and saves you hundreds of dollars. I made one and it worksreally well
Love it. Excellent production. Excellent lighting and sharp camera work. Can't wait for more.
Built one very similar years ago because had to trim out over a hundred interior doors. It was a lot better than carrying a heavy chop saw up and down everyday. Looks and works great nice job
freaking awesome. Totally gonna build it, thanks for this.

Thank's so very much for making and shearing your wonderful project!!
If your ever in the big town of Perkins OK, look me up!!!
On the "stop block", what if we turn the tee nut to the inside and countersink it as you did on the miter gage??
Yep That could work
Very motivating. LOVE saw guides. Thanks and good luck.
Thanks for nothing. The "To Do List" is getting longer,,,,,
then get off your arse and get doing! :D
NOT TODAY I'm Watchin UA-cam!
Ha Ha yes your right, more things to make not enough time.
It has been a year. Did you make it yet or are you still watching UA-cam and adding to your list?
Right 😂
Great idea, I really don't know how anyone doesn't like your videos! Congratulations.
Very well done ....... I have gotten some great ideas from your video.........I will be making this jig for sure...........Thanks................And as always ..........Protect Your DIGITS ....Gregg
I'm happy to help :)
Great video. Thanks. You can put the t-nut on the other side of the wooden block to prevent it from getting pulled out.
I can tell a lot about how a craftsman thinks by watching what he builds and how he builds it. I think you would be a natural manual machinist and enjoy it. Consider taking a machine shop course.
Great idea. BTW - if you put the t-nut on the other side of the wood, tightening the knob will pull tighter rather than push it out.
I may make one, but with the capacity for breaking down a sheet of plywood... great ideas man.
Thank you

I really enjoyed your circular saw jig for straight cuts and miter and your stop blocks. keep up the good work and ideas.
Thank you
This is the best Circ Saw Jigs I have seen. I am going to build myself one of these and set it up to mount to my workmate bench. I have a small space in a single car garage for my tools so I can't buy larger items.
This is really practical and not complicated. Thanks will definitely try this
You are frustratingly creative and skilled.... I am all kinds of jealous lol
With the comments below, I have nothing to add. Terrific
Nice miter and crosscut jig, Glenn... Well done, sir!
Great job. I love watching people who build amazing things with relatively simple tools and their own skill.
I love this jig. I just made it tonight and I added one extra part that allows me to add and extra 12 inches to the fence if I need it. Wish I could post videos or a picture to show you.
Very neat stop block installation.. Probably going to use that! Thx!
Excellent jig. i upgrade it by cutting 2 slots on either side of the base which allow a f-clamp to goes through so i can clamps small piece (work piece is 3 or 4 inches wide). can rip cut to 1/4 inches.
You make me feel like I can do so much better! And smaller and lighter which as a 5’ Woman is very important. Really appreciate it!
Clamped speed square was a good simple idea. Nice.
Brilliant and elegant. Trying to help my grandkids get started in woodworking from a couple of thousand mile away and no tools to start with this goes a long way to helping help them. Common sense is always the highest form of intelligence! Well done. Montana Forester
This is way better than what I made. I made mine b/c I do not have space foe a mitersaw and needed to make 20 miter cuts.
Thank you
Ok Glen, watched it for the 9th time. I think I can do it myself. Since I do not have (the room for) a table, this is the best alternative I've seen on the 'U-tube' , keep you posted , keep your fingers crossed 😉
:D good luck let me know how it turns out.
You should invent your own jig products company, for sure it would be the best of all.
Very good . Men you do not need clamps when you cut long strips . Just glue an anti slept on the bottom of your gig cut .
This one is the best of your Limited Tools series and it is a delight to watch your videos. Thanks for sharing. This must be in every DIY shop with limited budget.
Thank you. I agree
I wish I could work as fast as you do in your videos. I would get a lot more done in my shop time.
Brilliant. Best wishes from Ireland 🇮🇪
I love this kind of outside the box thinking. When I build mine I will probably add some paste wax on the runners. Ji
A very good idea. Simple yet covers all the bases.
Good project, useful, easy and elegant. thanks.
This is on my ToDo List....Thanks...great design and build
Desde Trelew, Chubut , Argentina te agradezco por compartir tu sabiduría. Muchas gracias y muy buen proyecto. Lo intentare hacer en mi workshop. Ganial
So cool and makes cutting much safer. Hoping I can make this as a relative beginner. I will make sure to Measure twice ! Lol
Awesome! Always love to see good safe ways to work.....
This is awesome. Here's one thought about that last T-nut issue: you could put a screw or two in to hold the T-nut in place. Very cool jig. Thanks for sharing.
I’m very new to woodworking, and even I could follow those instructions.
you can put set screws into those T-nuts where the blades flare. you can also find T-nuts that have pre drilled holes for set screws.
I truly enjoyed watching your channel amazing wood works!!! You are the best ever! Xx Jimmy London UK
Thanks Glen. Some very useful tidbits to add to my own "how to" list. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Michael.
You are the man, I cannot thank you enough, great project, video & very clear. New to woodworking with limited means and only one arm I need all the help I can get. Takes a week to do a days work. THX
good stuff. simple and cheap to build and worth it.
I'm building one as soon as I have some free time. AWESOME kick as cross cut saw jig. Good work 👍
Just what I have been wanting to make. Very useful video and no unnecessary waffle that so many people seem to want to put in their videos. I will be back again to see what else you can help me with. Keep up the good work. Tony in England.
