![I Can't Build a Bench More Beautiful Than This [Carpenter’s DIY]](/img/n.gif)
I’ve seen lots of people make it fancier but I’ve never seen anyone make it simpler. Simple is always good 👍🏻🍻
Love the videos. Story not unlike your own. Pediatric registered nurse, love my job (which is lucky because i get to play with kids all day and it pays the bills) but carpentry and wood work is my passion. Watching your videos keeps me inspired. Thank you for what you do!
Love these vids. You can put pegs in either corner or anywhere equidistant from center, place on beam, twist so both pegs hit, BOOM, perfect center every time with no time lost adjusting.
thumbs up for using the word equidistant !!
thats actually a really amazing idea
doesn't work with end mortise.
The Samarai just learned a new move! Great idea, though you'd still have to make sure you always maintained pressure on those pins during the cut.
@@whoDatBeDare it would work just fine if you secure some boards on both sides of the piece to extend past the edge so you have the reference extend past the part.
I built a super Samurai router jig today to mortise 3”x6”x2” deep in a standing post! Made my life way too easy 🤗. Thanks for the awesome videos
Women have awesomeness glitter in our shops, too. But I️ know that you know that; you just get so pumped that you forget.
Hi, I made this a few months ago and it is amazing what you can do.. massive thank you...
Put them into production and make a mint👍👍
Just a thought for setting the fence(s)... When doing the original layout on the Plexiglas, find the center, then using a pair of dividers, scribe multiple concentric circles, say 1/4" or 5mm apart. Now you have permanent quick reference lines a known distance from the center of the router bit.
Great idea. If you had access to a laser cutter you could make that look really awesome.
You would have to do al lot of them though and dye them different colors for different bit diameters, because concentric circles from the center of the bit doesn't tell you much if you switch from a 3/4" diameter bit to a 3/8" diameter bit. You have to measure from the outermost edge of the bit when setting your fence, so if you want a groove an inch from the edge, you have to know where an inch from the outermost part of your bit is; you wouldn't measure that from the center point. But I suppose if you own only 1/2" diameter bits or only 3/4" diameter bits, then you could make those lines based off the outer radius of the bit and then make your incremental lines and as long as you only ever used bits with the same diameter, then it'll work.Your other option if you have multiple diameter sized bits is you make a base for each of your regular sizes and put in those concentric circles like I mention in the previous paragraph. And at $10 bucks or so a pop, that's not a bad idea, if you make 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 5/8", 3/4" and 1". $60 or so bucks and they're flat so they wont take up much space when not in use.I'd like to figure out a way to use aluminium extrusion for the fences. I think the way you'd do that is using the concentric circles as a ruler and having slotted holes in case your drilled hole didn't line up perfectly with the t-bolt channel in the extrusion. Lots of possibilities though.
Yeah bit diameter, but quick maths in the ol' bean, add bit radius to desired figure and bob's ur auntie, go-to adjusted figure upon pre-scribed concentric circles
I may even be tempted to scribe every eighth inch and just eyeball the sixteenths/thirty-seconds
Cole Bouchard you missed the point. The center of the bit is the key reference point.
New Student to the channel. I have been researching Slab Jigs for leveling and Your jig set up opens up new thoughts and ideas. I have always believed in the old masters way of no screw type building, use tenons and mortise to build with. And other joinery of old. Thank you for sharing.
Went out and made this immediately and got the chance to make a second one because the first one fell off the table 5 mins after I finished and BROKE the damn plexi!!! Second one went much faster with a template to follow! Gonna use it today to make a shed gate! Thanks bud.
I have been building jigs like that for years. Square one's, round one's and on. The way to improve your jig is to route a 3/8 inch strip just in from where you have drilled your holes. Do one on each side so the router orients best. Take your 2x4 fence and make it smaller so you can use it on plywoods as well. Then add some of that plastic to the face of the fence. Drill holes in your fence facing upward. epoxy threaded rod into those holes. Then get a some wing nuts and you will have a jig that is faster to setup and more simple to use. It will glide better with the plastic faces on your fences as well. Takes a little more time up front but will save tons of time in the long haul. Cool video and great energy. Thanks.
Great ideas! Could we see a pic.. Especially of the sides with a threaded rod
Yea love to see a photo of what Your describing !
Please share with us some pictures or a video of your jigs!!
Can you send me some pics as well, would like to make something like that
I smell what you are cooking
I subscribed because you told me to. I fear the Samurai
Freaking awesome. And perfect timing I just borrowed my father-in-law's router to help me finish my work bench joinery.
You are right ...That jig is a must for every woodworker
On the topic of PPE, the cartridge type respirator filters are generally only for vapors unless otherwise marked. Particulate matter (dust) should be filtered out with filters designed for the particle size. It's a good idea to keep a set of both in the shop and note, they can stack so you get both protections if your project calls for it.
If this is what you do on a rainy day I hope you have more bad weather.
Samurai goes pro Ninja. Outstanding idea!
Ya you right , that jig is dope as hell , love jigs that aren’t overkill … there typically more flexible like your thingy
Great job!! Hope everyone has a great day!!
500 thousand subscribers did very well to you, this was the video that I liked the most, a direct hug from BRAZIL :)
If you made 2 more plexiglass pieces, each 12" wide and 8" deep, you could extend the range by putting one on each side of the 12" x 12" base plate and attaching a small board across the top, with screws from the bottom, for stability, then putting the stop block on the bottom just like you did on the original. That would let you cut into a 12" or even 18" board using that same jig. Disconnected and hanging from a pin on your wall for future use, they would always be available but out of the way until needed. Thanks for sharing this one with us Samurai!
One of the few actual useful things on the Samurai Carpenter channel. (I have to look for the others and that is what disappoints me about the Samurai Carpenter.) But this is the bomb. I have made this jig. I had 8mm plexiglass laying around. This is a bit flimsy, good enough for what I will use it for (I hope).
Your demeanor is exactly what I love having in a mentor! Instant subscriber. Thanks for the tip. Now I don't have to go spend a fortune on a guide for my new router!
Once again Samurai provides a simple and cool jig. Beers and Cheers from Texas!
Educational. Concise. Funny. Thanks Samurai!
Nice! I was using my Dremel routing small work, a mortise for 2X4, that was made too rough with the circular saw. So I used the Dremel with the small attachment for small Dremel router bit (1/8") to smooth the bottom of the mortise, removing the eneven lines of my saw. It was almost perfect when I lost stability with the Dremet hold perpendicular, using a small thin plank as a support... Finally I concluded that I should use a 8"x8" sheet of plexiglass to support and stabilise the Dremel. So another project added in the corner of my mind. Then I saw this video, where you do the same with a real router! I was so glad that you confirm my idea was not crazy!
Great video, tahnk you to share this great tip!
I am subscribing!
Of course, you are right. You are the Samurai!!!
The best woodworker On UA-cam AND the funniest
Very good project, quick easy and very economical, it facilitates the work saving time and, with results like a professional, ideal for beginners and hobbys like me. congratulations and greetings from Argentina. Long live Perón !!!
Hey Samurai thank you, I made the jig and works fantastic!!!
screw two guides in reverse onto the upside of your plastic board as extensions and the width of the board you route can be way wider.
you could add a plastic seat, wheels and a differential to it and there you go-kart
all these possibilites are givin me a woodpecker
Hey Samurai, Don't forget that rice is excellent at drying things out and getting the moisture out of things too. Hope this helps.
Better than rice is those desiccant packages you get in the box when you buy shoes, clothing, etc.
That being said, your tool will be fine, betcha dollars to donuts. The electronics are now hermetically sealed in these quality tools. You can literally drop the tool in a bucket of water, freeze it, break the ice off, and it still works.
Damn impressive.
Throw it in the oven at 120F for a couple hours. Not hot enough to do damage, but will dry it out fast & no wasted rice...just another way to skin this cat. @HoneyOnWales
The Fein tool will be fine. It’s German.
Awesome, will do this jig with my router for sure. Had a good idea to make circular or semicircular routed edges, you put one screw to the plexiglass and rotate around the fixed axis.
Hey, at least it isn't snowing. Across the Strait from you over in Sequim, I got about 4 inches of snow last night. I hope all my baby fruit trees don't die.
Thank goodness for the rain! Great Video!
Working smarter, not harder. Awesome!
Boy, such a Killer Jig! My Festool fence can dive the bin. Thank you for Sharing!
Dude came across this video and I have to thank you for showing me this jig - saves so much time !
Greetings from West Coast of Norway. We know all about rain! If/When I do mistakes like yours, I leave the tool in large bucket, and cover it with rice (25 kg bag is appr. 20 USD). Works perfect and get most off the moisture away. :-) Good Luck.
19:06, Ok Ok! I did!🤣
Great jig btw, I'm not a woodworker, I was trying to fix something and scratching my head for few days on how to cut a groove at the end of a 6 feet pole, now I know how
So simple , What a eaes and joy in useing this jig thanks for the vdeo
I build beds for Historical events. and I am so building this. when you build 5 to 10 beds between Monday and Thursday. something to make the mortise and tenons faster is priceless.
Awesome Video, funny too. Ingenuity and humor combined, made my life better and laughed to boot. Thank you. 🔥🔥🔥
Bought my dad a beer, still got no router. I am back in the shop chiseling.
Have a great weekend boys and girls :)
haha this sounds like a japanese haiku
This guy is fantastic
Calm down , boy! You’re not the only one to use this kind of jig. I found a piece of plexiglass laying around years ago and came with the same idea. And it has been in my router box since then...unseparated from my router, happilly married...very useful... thanks for sharing anyway! Greetings from London!
valentin Strugariu so what you're saying is you're just a selfish bastard for not making a video and sharing it with us?
No, just another carpenter but not as good looking as you or not enough to do videos and upload on youtube.... just teasing you... been watching your videos for couples years now.... subscribed after first video seen when you where still a makita fan. Then watch your video when you went ‘spiritual ‘ and found out we had a lot in common. Keep up with the good work and God bless you and you family!
LOL!
I built a "Close Copy" for my little trim router. 8" x 8" Acrylic 1/4" thick 4 holes on each side of the perimeter. Works very well.
What seems the most beneficial to me with this jig is how easy it would be to cut entirely round holes larger than a hole saw can do. Just screw one of the holes in to whatever you want to make a larger hole in and then you can use it like a compass. I think I need to make one of these.
That is similar to what I do on my home made router table. I just clamp a straight edge to the table as a fence ( a piece of mdf will do). I'll have to try using 2 like you did. Thumbs up.
Thanks for the video! I bookmarked this in January and I have finally built it today. It works great!
Like the jig idea, have been using that for a while. With that big of a base it makes doing a number of things way easier.
Awesome idea I’m absolutely making this. Another thought, if you were to space holes diagonally you could use this to cut circles as well!
The algorithm finally worked in my favour. I know what mods I am going to make to my home made base plates.....Thank you...
Just made your freaking awesome jig and it works perfectly - i did also add two removable self centre pins for even quicker mortising
Excellent. I use for this purpose the plastic part inside an LCD monitor.
OOOuuuuWAAAhhhHHHHH! Super Samurai router jig. Gotta do it.
Dude your multimaster will be fine i've had mine since 2006 and its been underwater had more drops and even been run over by a cherry picker and still works a treat :)
In the planning stages of my timber frame cabin (setting up my joints) this a great idea since this will save tons of time 👍👍👍
Nice multi-use jig. You can even attach a follower to route a complex curve, as in for a gooseneck moulding or such. Excelent jig base, Jessie. Thanks for the idea builder.
You could even use double stick tape to attach a strip for tilting the router if you need to.
Excellent Idea
Great jig arises from the man shop glitter. Well done and fun.
Amazing! I believe you wood be the man that wood MAKE the square peg FIT into the round hole !
So simple and yet so awesome!
never made a jig so quickly after watching a woodworking video lol awesome idea here that's also so simple it's a wonder I haven't seen it before
Thank you, you solved an idea I had.👍
Very GOOD jig.
You're my hero, what a brilliant human, lol. Love what you're doing samurai
Brilliant idea. Thanks
You give me so many wood ideas wow samurai genius Phil jean
Phil Jean
Ha ha, he gives you wood... LOL
Just made this last night thank you for the awesome tool upgrade 😀
I will buy my plexiglass today. Thank you!
that is a BOSS router bit
Thanks Jessie for the tip👍 I appreciate it👍
Sank you Masta Splinta! Great videos!
Another thing this could be used for to make awesomeness, you could add holes radiating out from the center in increments to be able to screw, one screw to a piece of wood, then be able to cut a arc or a complete circle/ring/disk.
But i do in deed love the idea and will be making one very soon as my wife wants a pergola with a swing under it.
Stefan Gremore Yes and I have done that. The Samurai will do it and maybe make another update video because, as he said, he is the ultimate awesome Samurai. Haha
Made it. Couple of construction notes. Forster bit to make the centre hole - not a good idea. Reminder to counter sink the bottom for mounting the router and the top edge holes for mounting the guides (ooops). ¼ inch is plenty stable for me. On first use I realized my stable Boshe housing can be “plunged” by using the base plate edge and coaxed into the piece. Just saved me 100$ right there. Love this jig!!!
True Genius at its best!!!!!
Cool- by now you know if you set your fences diagonally you can go to around 14"- it's a router!
Also I use a 4" x 6" piece of plexi on my trim router to predetermined set back for applying fences on larger pieces. You can too !
Dude, this thing is genius!
That's awesome!!! Putting this in my notebook of ideas!
"Basking in the man-glitter of your workshop." LoL. Subscribed.
i'd add in an aluminum extrusion or a couple of them w/ a track on one end to then bolt onto the plexiglass base. now you definitely get a straight reference face for your fence for even more accuracy. great idea, gonna have to make one one of these days.
Going for beers ooo boy Iam counting your bandaids
Dude...I freekin love you man. Keep up the great work
The samurai router jig is why I just subscribed! Excellent idea! And you're pretty funny too.
It also works as a safety shield...I like that idea a lot
Thanks, champ. I'm gonna make one of these for the big boy Makita tomorrow morning.
this is so simple yet it blew my mind!
Yo Samarai it’s more than 10 inches of width.... turn it diamond ways instead of square ways and you got more width... geometry makes your jig even cooler
Nate Herrington buenos días nomás
Would be close to 15in on the diagonal.
17in minus the onset of the holes to hold the fences.
It’s Samurai
Nate Herrington I just wanted to propose the same thing for a 14 inch solution, but being the measure first cut second type, watched for comments saying something similar😁
stickontheice or just use a bigger bit of perspect 😂
You could get maybe 13 ~ 14 inch boards if you affix your guides across the corners. Nice jig, will def make myself one.
Reading some of the questions in the comments it may be worth your while in making a router how-to video. After buying my first router it took me a while to work out how to accurately set cut plunge depth, accurate mortise locations, etc using gauges or accurately cut gauge-stock.
Thanks for the great videos.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
BEST JIG EVER!
excellent tip a big hug
This guy is the real life shaggy, and I love it.
I Hate Thermo
Give that guy a Scooby Snack.
Your are a freaking genius
Man glitter--love it---
Cool multi jig I will have to make 1 to make life easier. I really do love watching your videos and the best you have done is the 1 in Japan with competition with the plane shavings. Cheers Peter G in the UK
Well done! Definitely making that jig.
that is the only jig i need for my router.thank you.
Gonna make that jig with souch a passion and use it like a toy. Thank you Samurai!
Natural evolution of this idea: A large flat work surface with a 12x12 hole cut into it, with short pins in the corners. When you need a router table, flip this assembly upside down, slip it onto the pins. Instant router table.
That might change it from a "jig" to a router table insert. All one would need to do is to utilize the table fence. On second thought, I think I'll stick with the router table I already have and save myself that ten bucks.
Thanks Samurai, this router jig already become a trend!!!
Glad it was raining. Great jig.
