I've used other (10" saws) previously and was pretty surprised with the speed and cutting ability of this Dewalt saw.I have bolted mine to a table to minimize movement which I highly recommend.This is a Great saw ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxPeGkHOMe05FySypTOvYumxMn-xi39oRe with a light to see your cutting line (not a laser line).I'd recommend this saw fro anyone looking to upgrade from a 10" miter saw.
I am a woodworker and woodworking teacher. Most of my students suffer from autism spectrum disorder. Your approach demonstrates the beauty of woodworking as a way to learn problem-solving, geometry, and arithmetic in fun and natural ways. Your clarity, enthusiasm, simple techniques, and smile are wonderful guideposts in my teaching. Thank you, Tamara.
I hope you realize how many projects you have saved across the globe with your problem solving. Lots of amazing woodworkers out there, but you have a unique ability to explain a problem and how to solve it that makes sense to normal people. Thank you for your content.
That’s really so awesome to hear. I really hope these videos do help
I'm new to woodworking having bought a 115-year old home in the rural PacNW and there is literally NO ONE within 150 miles that is skilled in finish carpentry let alone someone who understands the fine ART of woodworking. Anyway, so I've had to learn the craft and bought $$$$ worth of equipment and tools. I've watched a LOT of UA-cam videos on a variety of subjects, how-to's and operational tutorials.
This is the 5th time I've received your video feed and every time-I get everything I need to know in the most concise, plain and direct manner over the hundreds of others I've slogged through. Some UA-camrs are either long-winded, goofy/silly (for "entertainment" purposes), have obnoxious music in the background, or just don't/can't explain things as well.
Good job! I'm Subscribed!
In difficult moments or on a particularly hard day, your content offers an escape. You bring bring me joy and I am grateful. Peace.
That’s so awesome to hear 👍
I'm building gates for around our ranch. Many of the angels for the cross supports are not standard. This is exactly what I needed. Thank you.
one of the better, even best demo vids i have seen in a long time. clear explanation, simple and concise explained by a person who clearly knows her stuff.
I could listen to you all day long, your jigs and explanations are so precise and detailed,
I have made a few of your jigs and learned so much from you. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us! 👍💕
A week or so ago I was trying to cut some 60 degree miters on my table saw (ok, actually 30 degrees, but you know what I mean). I have the Incra V27 miter gauge and I can swing it that far, but since I'm making the cut at the end of the fence, and not through it, it places the workpiece in a very precarious position on the edge of the table before making the cut. That night I was browsing UA-cam and saw your video in my feed. Bam! The thumbnail was all I needed to see to know how to solve my problem.
My first idea was to cut a 30 degree wedge and then set my miter gauge to 30 degrees and I'd have my 60 degree cut. That proved to be difficult to handle safely. That's when I discovered that if I hold the workpiece perpendicular to the face of the miter gauge (set at 30 degrees), I'd get my desired 60 degree cut. I clamped a piece of 2x2 to the fence then clamped the workpiece to the 2x2 and I could safely push the workpiece through the blade and get my cut. With all the clamps, there was no shortage of handles to hold on to, to keep my hands away from the blade.
This is a great trick to have in your "bag of tricks". Just add an angle to your angle to get the unreachable angle.
Your tutorials are so thorough, I am in awe of the amount of valuable info you put in your videos
Awesome to hear
Your new tool wall look pretty cool😊
You really have a lot of practical advice and information on this channel, and I bet it helps a lot of people. Most of the people watching these videos don't have tons of experience, and you are able to explain what you're doing and why in very simple terms. Wow 656K subscribers this channel must be very successful, well deserved keep up the great content.
That was SO SO simple and just brilliant! Your tips and information has really helped in improving my (sometimes sad, sometimes funny but always safe) woodworking skills. Thanks so much, keep up the great work !
Sometimes the answer is really simple! Ha
I haven't had too many occasions where I needed to cut such a drastic angle but I can see this is a great idea. Obviously more accurate than just holding the workpiece and trying to cut on a marked line. And a lot safer too.
You are quickly becoming one of my favorite channels to watch. I set my alarm to let me know when you put out a new one so I don't miss anything. Thanks for sharing. I learn something new every time I watch you.
So awesome to hear! Thanks!
Awesome video. Always a pleasure. Your instruction delivery relates to us amateurs who what to make stuff and never had a skill set. 👍
If during the build process - like before you glued on the fences - you struck an arc on the base you could use a suitable sized Forster bit to drill a few holes large enough to give you a view of your saw markings. Just a few holes would not compromise the stage but would allow you to more confidently set your angle. Then your score marks would provide a nice "double check" of your setup.
It's nice seeing a woman wood working and offering instructional videos. Great job and thanks for sharing.
Nice jig! I must admit I've always gone for quick and dirty versions of that jig (often dangerous too) so you've inspired me to build a jig like yours!
Any boatbuilders out there; you've just got yourself a scarphing jig!
Haha nice! Yes! Scrap joints for guitar necks was a popular suggestion too
Thanks again, you came in clutch. Quickest jig I’ve built and it works great!
Awesome
Whoa! That is a neat jig! Enjoyed your geometry approach…fond memories of high school math half a century ago. The greatest value of your videos for me are the techniques. The jig build had a ton of cool ideas. For example using your combination square on the underside to find the line for the brads on the 45 degree fence. Thanks for making these videos, I appreciate the time you invest.
Haha glad you liked it!
I love the creative way you solve problems.
I'll definitely build the part tomorrow. That fits perfectly, because I'll have to cut a lot of such angles for a project in the near future. Thank you for this trick.
Awesome. Glad it was helpful!
JLR Workshop- Tamar, this is a great video, that will help with tighter angle cuts, and wider cuts as well with a little ingenuity. As far as cutting through the base, most sliding miter saws have a depth of cut adjustment screw to keep that from happening! Keep those vids coming!
Basic things look amazing when you explain it.
As always, lot of 👍 and tons of 💕.
Awesome to hear
One of the BEST explanations on YT for corresponding angles. Great job.
Glad you think so!
I've never seen the AC+PVA glue trick before. Very clever; thanks for the tip!
Glad it was helpful! I use it a ton
That was awesome. Love the way you explain complex things.
Glad you liked it!
The timing on this video is perfect. My son gave me what I thought would be an impossible project. He wants me to make LARGE wood versions of gamer dice that go from 4 sides (pyramid) 6, 8, 10, 12, and 20 sides. Some of the angles will be ridiculous! This jig will allow me to attempt the project with at least consistent result. Thank you!
Awesome! Glad it was helpful!
Thank you Tamar, for this terrific video! It's clear, simple, and easy to follow. I have been making picture frame molding for the inside of wainscotting, and I needed a number of pieces with one end at 66 1/2 degrees (and the other 23 1/2). I tried free handing it the quick & dirty way, with a 45 deg block like most videos show. Things were going fine, and then on the last cut I must have moved a tiny drop and the end of the molding just fragmented like an explosion. It really scared me although my hand was no where near it. I immediately stopped and made your jig, and it feels MUCH safer. I had also cut the vertical parts too tall for my clamps so I just cut off a bit off the top and corner once it was fully assembled. One thought on the clamping, I found that clamping to the fence tends to pull the molding upward. I might to clamp to the base, maybe using Milescraft 4009 Fence clamps to make it more secure. Again, advice to the reader: If you are trying to cut extreme angles without the jig, its really dangerous! It may be because of the extreme angle, but the blade teeth seem to be more likely to grab the piece and fling around, and its VERY hard to keep it flat and tight with your fingers so close to the blade. Make this jig and you'll be good. Thanks for maker my project safer!!
I like the way you started, with the simple jig providing rationale for a more flexible jig. Nice educational moment. Nifty result.
Glad you liked that!
Two things: 1) great idea. 2) I like and appreciate the way you engineer your way from a problem to a solution. Well done.
Excellent as usual Tamara, thank you. You didn’t point out that it also works as a zero clearance cut which is another great advantage to the jig. Exceptional, thank you
For sure! Glad you liked it
Your videos never fail to impress. That’s a great jig with simple build method. Love the straight forward approach
Glad you liked it!
What a way of thinking, I like the way you create your own jigs to facilitate the work and inspire your followers to do the same with whatever they do, thanks Tamar.
Glad you like it 👍
Thanks for the simple, not over engineered solution.
This is awesome! A few years ago when I was trying to build a guitar from scratched I needed to cut the scarf joint on the neck for the headstock and we ended up using a miter saw. It was super sketchy and thankfully came out okay, but I sure could have used a jig like this!
Would be perfect for that!
Thank you Tamar, this is a good solution, so you can use the saw even more effectively.👍👍👍
Glad you liked it!
wow, this is great! just what I needed for a project I'm doing where I need to build a trapezoid and needed a jig. Thanks!!
Just got my first saw and was scratching my head trying to figure out how to cut over 45 degrees. This tutorial was amazing. I know what I’m making next 😊
This is flipping genius. I can think of quite a few times when I needed to make a steeper cut than my saw could handle. Great job
Glad you like it!
What an excellent jig! You are a genius!
Ich mag diese Frau als Tischlerin, sie ist so gut und zugänglich, danke, auf jeden Fall wie
I love your ingenuity when creating these jigs! Your explanations are so easy to follow, too 😊
Awesome to hear! It’s all a jumbled mess in my head so it takes a bit to get out what I want to say 😂
@@3x3CustomTamar Well it comes across very well 😀
I'm setting up my new compound miter saw and have been thinking about a safe way to cut angles over 60 degrees. I thought "someone must have done this before." and I was pleasantly surprised that your video was the first result when I searched for 'miter saw extreme angle'. Solid video and jig/clamp design. Thank you!
this is great! didn't realize there was such a simple upgrade from the quick n dirty. thanks
Haha yup! Glad you liked it!
Wow, this amazing. Thanks for sharing the video. I guess this is the best mitre saw jig I've ever seen on UA-cam. Simple but very practical. Just the way I like it.
I hope this video gets millions of views.
Glad you liked it!
Tamar, great video. I really appreciate the way you explain the process.
Awesome to hear! Thanks!
Awesome! Great solution to cutting scarf joints for a guitar neck since the blade (mine) can only protrude 3.5" and the lumber will be greater/wider. Thanks!
I used to have a set of triangles of varying degrees that would be added together and put against the back fence to make odd angles. But your jig is so much better and safer. My fingers and I thank you!
Glad you like it!
Amazing video. So clear and simple. Thank you!!!!!
Very crafty, I love ideas for developing new jigs. Nicely done.
Glad you liked it. Thanks!
Great jig. Love the thought process here and you presented very clearly. Will definitely build this for my miter.
Awesome
Superb jig and, as usual, an equally superb explanation of how to make it.
Awesome to hear! Glad you liked it!
I noticed you cut those angle reference lines on a sliding compound mitre saw. I have just a regular compound mitre saw. How would mark those reference lines on a regular compound mitre saw? I love how detailed you are in your instructions.
Great jig Tamar. For years I've been cutting a 45 whenever I need to make an acute cut and sticking it somewhere in the shop to use for next time. Then I forget where I put it and cut another 45. This jig is much more stable (i.e. safer) and I can hang it up with my other jigs (Cut a hole with a Forstner bit at the top of the V.) Really like the way you demonstrate everything and explain what to do in different eventualities. Thank you!!!
Awesome! Glad you found it useful! Yeah. Those one time use jigs always get used up for something else. Ha
Can we have more of this type of show I have a limited number of machines with limited range of use your ideas are always make them more useful and means I don't have to buy yet another machine but end up with better results. Thanks for your inspiration.
Glad you liked it!
Well, I NEEDED this for my own safety, so I built it. I’ll be using this jig on an upcoming project. After previously “free handing” an acute angle cut I could sense how dangerous that was, and clamping to my miter saw in those situations just didn’t seem feasible. So thankful that I subscribed and then found this great video. Still have all of my fingers.
So glad it’s useful for you!
I confess that I usually use one-time-only guides for such acute angles. Your jig is much better. Thanks!
Yeah, they work! But now I’m happy I have this 👍
A very good video! You must enjoy sharing and teaching. Your communications are clear and concise. Thank you!
Thanks!
Love the jig. You keep making good stuff. I've already borrowed several ideas from you.
Awesome to hear!
That's a great idea! Love it. Simple and effective.
Glad you liked it!
Tamar, that is a very well thought out jig! Well done!
Glad you liked it!
Thank you for explaining this in a way that doesn't hurt my brain lol
Awesome jig... great idea and design... you keep building and we will keep watching... thanks for all you do...
Awesome to hear! Thanks! 👍
Great idea this opens up a lot of possibilities. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you liked it!
Very useful! The jig queen strikes again!!!
Haha glad you liked it!
Amazing jig Tamar!! You are very talented!
☺️
Hi Tamara, as luck has it, I just managed to purchase the exact DeWalt double bevel sliding miter saw that you have. I got it on sale at HD with a free heavy duty saw stand. I just put everything together yesterday and I love it. Since I just saw your video on the angle jig, I can't wait to make one and try it out. Thanks again 👍 Ps, I also love your 6-1- universal trim router jig, glad I bought it.
Gran herramienta nueva, muchas gracias por aportarnos tu conocimiento. Un gran abrazo.
Love the jig. thank you.
TY 😄 Tamar for another great simple jig that is so functional
Glad you liked it!
Nice video ! I made a similar jig for making 5-point stars (72 degrees at the tips). Instead of a wooden fence with triangular supports, I used an aluminium 90-degree profile : the advantage is that there are no supports in the way of the clamp. Also, I placed the profile about 10cm / 4 inches from the back of the saw to facilitate the cutting of thicker wood (my miter saw isn‘t as big as the one in the video).
Happy Friday Tamar!!! Great easy little jig you made… Love you’re bubbly attitude!!!
And what a great voice ☺️ !!!!!
Hahaha thanks so much!
Excellent stuff. Lately I've been thinking how good jigs improve safety. Well done.
Glad you liked it!
Well, " FRIEND" THAT IS TOTALLY AWESOME. YOU ROCK GIRL.
Thank you for sharing your experience and design. I really appreciate it and think that you did an excellent job explaining it. Looking forward to more videos. This is going to be a great improvement over other designs. You certainly put a lot of thought into your designing jigs., 🙂
Really smart solution. Thanks for the content
Good video, a simple solution to a problem and a safety concern.
Glad you liked it!
Great idea and a handy jig to have........thanks Tamar!
Glad you like it!
I am going to be making one of these jigs thank you for your idea going to come in really handy. Keep up the great videos and ideas
Awesome! Glad you liked it!
I love this jig! Just one thought...would it be improved if the base is acrylic? Then you could see through it to the numbers on the saw.
Excellent, I really enjoyed this, most useful! Thanks Tamar
Glad you liked it!
excellent video, Tamar!
Thanks!
So simple but I had to watch your video...Thanks!
This is exactly what I need. Thanks!
Will come in handy for those CBG necks. Thanks!
Yup! Awesome
Thank you for making this video. This is my first time viewing your channel & it really helped me to cut the extreme angles. Your jig is pretty cool too.
I just became a new subscriber to your channel, Thanks again.😊👍🏼
Awesome. Glad it was helpful!
Great idea ;) I was looking for solution like that. Thx .!
Well done Tamar , fantastic jig .
Thanks so much!
By the way, you are a great roll model for young girls and women. Thank you. 👍
Love your Videos, Ideas & Innovative thinking!!
Awesome to hear! Thanks!
Thanks for this video! Now I have tips for the chopper saw and the table saw.
Glad I could help!
I love the Freud D1244X blade on my 12 inch miter saws, I own three 12" miter saws because I was a contractor. The saws between the three are different brands but they all are very precise. Great tutorial, blessings from Israel,שבת שלום.
Thanks! שבת שלום! Now off to cook for שבת! חחח
I am building 4 Interment flag cases for my dad's funeral and tried a jig on the tablesaw to get the 22.5 for the triangles. Talk about a pain! Then I saw your video. I made your jig and boom! 22.5 perfect angles! Thank you so much!
Que gran idea de accesorio !será muy útil en mis próximos trabajos , Gracias por compartirlo , saludos
