      Ah yes! Kreg covers a lot of bases with their products. I thought it was such a good idea that is way less intimidating to use than a table saw.

    You have a beautiful clear voice and easy to watch videos. I think it could replace the miter saw especially if you are on a budget. Cool art piece BTW.

      By the way great video.
      I’ve been watching Peter Millard and he has a track saw setup to completely replace his table saw.
      I just bought 2 of these to be a poor man’s version for my shop and a to go tool. On sale for 19.99 each, plus I figure when they are in hand - I’ll get a better idea how to do my own permanently affixed to the workbench that’s full size.

    Neat little tool! It's slick because you really have unlimited angles you can cut. Nice! Noticed no keyword for watching the whole video lol, I was about to write in PICKLE lol.
    Edit: really nice piece you made!

    • @OakHillMillworks

      Haha you caught that! I finished filming and I was like Dangit! I forgot! 😂 - the limit on it would be the wider your board, the fewer angles you can do.

    Great review! Thanks for posting! Sounds like a great miter jig for someone getting started. Would this make sense to you for someone who already has a miter saw? I hear you on the portability and you mentioned feeling safer with the less-powered circular saw when doing smaller more detailed work. Would that be its main benefit? I guess I'm wondering if this will add more flexibility in my shop or more probably be added to the dust pile if I've already got a decent miter saw?

    • @OakHillMillworks
      @OakHillMillworks  Рік тому +1

      Thanks for watching! There’s just kind of something fun about it but yes I think its sweet spot really is small parts and if you are good with cutting them on the miter saw you already have, then you don’t need this. I think it would make an excellent starter jig for a person wanting to make signs, especially mosaics and things like that. It’s just so budget friendly and honestly I think is safer than the miter saw. I have seen so many people do sketchy stuff on a miter saw thinking they are harmless. Anyway - appreciate you commenting and asking! I have used it a few times since the video, usually for dowels and probably because my miter station never got rebuilt when I moved to the new shop.

    Can you use this for compound miters if your saw tilts? Or would it tear up the mdf?? Would it be good for trim with a tilting saw?

    • @OakHillMillworks
      @OakHillMillworks  Рік тому

      That’s a good question. Technically yes you could but like you guessed, it would tear up the MDF over time. I think you could replace the MDF though.

    This was $20 a week ago, not sure if it's still at that price. I suspect they're liquidating all their inventory for a newer improved model.
