    Here are a few things I forgot to mention in this video:
    - To trace the hexagon, consider using the compass method (just look it up)
    - I show an example in the video of the jig in use. I used some scraps I had nearby. But when actually using the jig, you'll want to cut down blanks close to final size to limit wastage.

    • @musicbymark
      @musicbymark 5 років тому +1

      I'd like to see you make another video using minimum size scraps and after you have made any tweaks or improvements to the point where you think you are at the final design. I've been wanting a jig for hexagons for a number of years, ideally one that could also make pentagons for a wooden soccer ball. An old woodwork magazine issue had a difficult to understand article on the process and I was never able to follow the instructions, or the highly elaborate jig that used milled metal parts.

  • @manbearcarp
    @manbearcarp 5 років тому

    Thanks a lot for making this video. I took this and made my own twist. For hexagons of adjustable sizes - Make the fist guide long(longer than the longest hex you'll want to make) and attach the toggle clamps to it. Now use a drafting triangle(30-60-90) to slide along the guide and secure it with the toggles. For the second cut on the distance between the triangle and the guide slot will be the length of the faces of the hexagon.

  • @scottraywelty
    @scottraywelty 4 роки тому +1

    This is a great jig. I found that I could eliminate the removable block by making the first cut using the right hand stop and then flipping the blank over for the rest of the cuts as you show. Now I hope to make the left hand block moveable to make hexagons of various sizes.

    Thanks for posting this. A photocopy of a hexagon glued onto piece of ply can help too. The 120 degree guides can also have a small groove cut along them as space for dust that could collect and affect alignments

    I made some hex based puzzles - the pieces are smaller than these - about 1 inch across.
    I found it easier to make 1" wide sticks first, then cut the stick into pieces with diagonal cuts, and then finish each piece with the opposite cuts.
    It left a lot of very small triangles as waste. Also, I was able to make them pretty accurate (necessary for puzzles to fit together nicely).

    • @DIYMontreal
      @DIYMontreal  5 років тому

      Yes, that's a great tip I should have mentioned in the video. It's best to cut blanks to size to minimize waste, unlike the test I demonstrated on the jig in the video.

    Simple and sweat! As Branko mentioned, dust accumulation would definitely be of concern. Depending on the thickness of your material for the hexagons, a shallow rabbet would work just as long as the piece being cut is taller than the rabbet. Another possibility is not to have the two fences touch each other, leaving a slight gap to brush or blow out the dust buildup.

  • @jerryeykholt8218
    @jerryeykholt8218 5 років тому +1

    nice jig. there are a couple ways to get very accurate 60 degree angles - using tools most people have. A hexagon has sides that are the same as the radius of the outer circle, so you can put two nails on a board to lay out the lines. Another is to use trigonometry. The ratio of the sides of a 30-60-90 triangle is 1.732 (tangent of 60 degrees). So, for 10 cm height, the base would be 17.3 cm. The keys are to use clean marks and a larger distance for better accuracy.

    • @DIYMontreal
      @DIYMontreal  5 років тому

      Indeed, after the video was out I realized I could have used the compass method to draw the hexagon, which may be easier and more accurate.

    I made one like yours except I only used 1 runner on my sled as I already had a jig/sled for cutting circles with the table saw. I used the protractor and plywood for the guide. it cam out the same as yours. I also marked with a mark a lot how they go on the sled. I then removed the parts. this way If I want to make larger or smaller hexagons n I just change the size of the guide piece near the kerf line. I can then still use the jig to cut circles.

    Since the start of summer I have a small table saw. I didn't come any further than get it up and running. But now that the daylight time is getting shorter and the weather less pleasant to be outside for many hours I'm going to spend more time in my shop. So I watched this video again and I read the article as well. I miss one thing in the description there: the over all dimensions of the sled. How large should it be? My table saw table is quite small 45 cm wide and 60 cm long
    The slots are 8 cm from the edges but at one side I'll have to put the fence so only 4 cm is left outside the runner. So the maximum size (width) of my sled can't be more
    than 40 cm (less than 16 inches). Is that enough? Thanks in advance for your reaction.

      @DataumCats 5 років тому +2

      They were being lazy about it, but there's not that much avoidable waste. If that piece was about 1 square foot, some napkin math says you're probably not getting better than six 2 inch hexagons out of. Looks like she got 5 which isn't bad considering the amount of work it would take to get 6. Plus unless she needs a either an exact multiple of 6, or more than 30, there's going to be left over scrap anyways no matter if you cut 5 or 6 out of it.

    • @DIYMontreal
      @DIYMontreal  5 років тому +1

      I was just testing out the jig on some scraps I had nearby but to your point I should have shown how I would actually use the jig to batch process by cutting blanks close to final dimension and using the jig to shave off the corners. There will still be waste this way but the speed and accuracy of the jig outweigh the time it would take to cut them without the jig.

    What material is that? The stuff you're cutting into hexagons.

      Not really sure. It was a backer board on an ancient looking Ikea type of bookshelf.

    This jig if perfect for making identical hexagons. But as mentioned by some other posters, a good deal of waste.
    A hexagon consists of three sets of parallel sides. Wouldn't it be less wasteful to first rip strips of the desired width, then cut the waste away? This could be done in about three or four cuts. Instead of making a separate cut for each side.

      Yes, absolutely. That would be the best method. I was just testing out with scraps to show that it works.

      Thank you maam. I didn't mean to trounce on your post or your technique. As you are well aware, there are many ways to do many things in woodworking. This is just one way and to each... his/her own.
      You're a very talented woodworker. Your videos are concise and informative without being over-engineered. There are a lot of your projects I'm hoping to incorporate into my own shop one day. Thanx for the great content. Continued success to you.

    Bonjour...lorsque je click sur le lien pour le UHMW, tout va bien il me guide sur Amazon mais dans le coin cela m'indique que ce produit ne peut-être livré au Canada...est ce que vous l'avez achetée d'un autre vendeur ???
    merci de m'en informer car j'en suis à l'étape des cross cut sled et autre du genre.
    Bonne journée.

    Some advice because I enjoy giving. Good tutorial, but put a little of YOU in UA-cam. That is to say; you have a personality and it, along with dry tutorials are the best mix in my opinion. It's clear you are evolving in your woodworking in front of the world and that in of itself is content. What no hint or teaser on the future project / use of the hexagons? Thanks for sharing. Look forward to the hexagon concept? Stay real, be you.

      Well, what can I say, this is me. No big persona to be found here. Sometimes there's a little more of me in the video, and sometimes it's all about the project. It's constantly evolving.
      As for the teaser, I'm not sure when I'll actually be able to work on the project I have in mind, so I'd rather not make promises I can't deliver on just yet. Hope I can start on it soon enough.

      Yes, simply cut a strip to the same width as the hexagons you want to make.

    I'm confused, wouldn't the angles be 60 degrees? Or are you counting both for 120 degrees?

    • @DIYMontreal
      @DIYMontreal  5 років тому +1

      I guess it depends which way you're looking at it from. From within the hexagon, the angle is 120 from one side to the next adjacent side.
