I cannot thank you enough for this video. I have been tinkering on and off for a long time trying to figure how to cut the angles for this exact planter. I saw an add for it a couple of years back and it has haunted me ever since. Thank you again.
Here is a video from a real old timer about compound angles. Basicly he takes some scraps and sneaks up on it. ua-cam.com/video/3WM_dk56eZ4/v-deo.html I don't know what happenend to this dude, he just disappeared 6 years ago, but his project "angle madness" is still on the channel. That project name is pure understatement. ua-cam.com/users/HalfinchshyWWingvideos Hope you can get some uses out of it.
Gives me chills when I see carpenters put there hand so close to the business end of a pneumatic nailer I've seen those Brad's curl up by following an Internal wood grain path and going straight through someone's thumb or finger ouch , but regardless great video 👍
Good video man. That is something I have tried and failed at a few times. I'm gonna have to get me 1 of those track saw. You haven't ever came off like a know it all. You're great at your craft and explanatory.
Only able to spend an hour or two in the shop each day, but my arm is starting to recover. I’ve got a project I’ve been working on with Revere Overland but it will be a few weeks before that video goes out. I really hope my arm recovers soon so I can get back to working and videoing daily
Hi! Thanks for the video. The presentation was very clear. But I did not hear you explain where you came up with the actual cut angles of 53 and 36. It looked like the finished project was 45 and 90. Is there some conversion table? Thanks.
Dude. Holy shitake mushrooms that's sick! Idk if u ever thought about creating a basics, intermediate, and advance course but if u haven't, u probably should. Or some single skill speed course where u focus on 1 specific skill per course. Even if u charged 20 bucks a pop for the speed course you'd break the bank with all your cash. Idk u seem knowledgeable enough to do it but I'm basing that off of s video that's good knows how old. Sorry I'm super baked rn so i hope i make some sort of sense. Lol. Great video hope there's more to come
Question - I've been building a collection of calculators that I make with Microsoft Excel, which is known as a spreadsheet program for the most part, but you can program the spreadsheets to function like a calculator. You just have to enter certain numbers or measurements and then it calculates once it has the numbers/measurements. The advantage it has over a hand held calculator is it can calculate a list of calculations instead of just one at a time like a handheld calculator does and you can save your Excel spreadsheet calculator files on your smartphone so you can have it on you at all times. I found a website that had the crown molding formulas that involve sine, cosine, tangent, etc and so I made an Excel spreadsheet calculator based off their formulas and my numbers are matching their numbers so I assume I have it set up right. For the spreadsheet calculator, all I do is enter the spring angle of the crown molding and the angle of the wall corners and then it will calculate the miter degrees and bevel degrees based off what you entered. If, for example, I enter a 90 degree wall corner and I enter 38 degrees for spring angle - the calculator calculates 31.6 for miter and 33.9 for bevel. My question is I have the correct numbers, but I've never cut crown molding before and I dont know if that means lay the molding flat on its back and set miter angle to 31.6 and the bevel to 33.9 and cut? Or does that mean set your crown molding against the fence at the same spring angle of 38 degrees and cut it with saw set at 0 miter and 0 bevel and the miter of 31.6 and bevel of 33.9 will be automatically produced?
Sorry i meant to say on last sentence" or does that mean set the crown up against the fence at 38 degrees and then set your miter angle to 31.6 and bevel to 33.9 and then cut it with the miter saw"
I was ready to come here and call you an basshole! However, the problem was all me! For whatever reason, I thought a speed square measures the angle left over not the wood cut off. I was completely wrong. I spend days measuring angles with a couple electronic angle tools drawing up plans which I transferred to the wood. I made jigs on my table saw and RAS... all failed. I started thinking your video was a scam. It wasn't until I really looked at the speed square and measured my angles and found I was not using the correct starting point, therefore all the angles I measured were the compliment angle! Duhh! I felt I was going nuts. I blame it on Dyslexia. Nevertheless, this video is spot on! And, I apologize for bitchin you out! LOL
Sorry I am late to seeing this video - but that simplified some things for sure! I have been trying to make a frustum or wood dirt bike stand, using plywood, but just can not work out how to cut the compound angles. Thanks
I hope everything is OK cause I recognice the last weeks that I miss the guy fighting the big logs with a truck and rough tools not knowing the name of the channel till I remembered to day that shawnee hill was the term to search for. Hope you are coming back again to share your adventures as before and that you family is still happy with your adventures ... and I guess you wanted to pick up a big saw from somewhere in the US or so...
I have to say that I'm still confused. Yes, this video was shot 2 years ago but it came up after a search of cutting compound angles. I'm struggling to make a picture frame that is splayed outwards by 20 degrees which I cut on the table saw using an digital angle device for accuracy. Annnnnnnnnnd that's about the point confusion set in. Do I make the compound cut with the board flat or vertical on the fence? And I fully understand that I would need 45 degree angles to make my corners when cutting for a single angle but with a compund due to the splay, how do I figure those? And again, when does one make a decision to cut an angle with the board flat, angles (like for crown) or vertical against the fence when using a chop saw? Thx.

Johannes here, as there are no good compound miter cuts demonstrations on UA-cam, so, thank you for your help!

I thought the same thing....ouch.
I hate angles . You make it look so easy. Thanks for teh info. Hope you get to feeling better !!
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment
Good video man. That is something I have tried and failed at a few times. I'm gonna have to get me 1 of those track saw. You haven't ever came off like a know it all. You're great at your craft and explanatory.
So how did you come up with 50.76 and 36.76? And, how do you determine which angle goes with the track saw and which for the circular saw?
Glad to see you back my friend. I was starting to get concerned. Happy New Year!

How did you figure out the angle of the miter and bevel?
Is there some formula?
This is awesome! Thanks so much. I may have to build now.
But How did you come up with the angles? The piece I need to cut is more complex than that.
If you’re right, you’re right. Don’t apologize.
Good vid, thanks for sharing the info 👍
excellent video and well explained too

Would be nice to see a response to everyone’s question: how did you calculate your angles?
google compound angle calculator

I should be back soon. I injured my arm and had to take it easy the past 6 months or so. Still not 100% but hope to be back soon
