Sorry for the quality, filmed on my phone. - Навчання та стиль
I wonder if the grrripper started out as a wood version similar to this. Love the diy spirit that's always present in woodworking.
Thanks
Awesome. It's exactly what I was looking for. Congratulations.
Brilliantly and fun to watch !
Excellent. Please note that the slot on wood insert nuts is not meant for a screwdriver but turned upside down onto the wood to help cut the thread. Easiest way is to thread the insert nut onto the end of a threaded rod with a standard nut which is tightened to stop the insert nut moving and use your pillar drill by hand to screw into the wood. It makes it very difficult to remove from the wood so if you plan to reuse the insert nut then do the same until a thread has been made in the wood then reverse the insert nut for the final insertion.
wow, i never knew, thanks for taking the time
Nice execution. Your DIY model may fall short in "grippiness" however. When I bought my genuine Micro Jig Grrrippers I was amazed at how grippy their green rubber is. That's what sold me on their product. You are right (obviously) that the rest of the tool can be created DIY-style, and you did a great job with that. Now if we could just find that green rubber in sheets somewhere! Thanks for the video - it's got me thinking.
Ive never actually saw one or used one, but for the diy'er like myself it's good enough. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have the actual grripper, just don't have the $ for it. Thanks for the like/subscribe, please share if you can.
Amazing! Simply Amazing! Jim, thanks so much for this video just got started with getting the T-Track and very excited to get started on this project.
thanks jose, i just wish the footage was better...
Jim Rupert, You have to start somewhere Jim. Many never start at all so well done and always do your best then you will have no worries.
Great job on the diy micro jig. I liked and subbed.. Keep up the good work..!
Thank you
great job Jim
okdadi Thank You
To locate the holes of your handle, you could use the metal trowel that you used and place that on your wooden top piece and then drill through the existing holes. Voila...properly indexed.
Great idea...will have to make one as well. One more project to add to an already lengthy list.
Rob Griffioen Genius, I don't know why I didn't think of that. Its nice to look at it from anothers perspective
Nice!
felicitation pour cette video tres instructive
Nice job, Jim.
Thanks Harry, i plan on making an update vid soon...by my life is crazy busy at the moment...hopefully by the end of the year!
Good job, good vid apart from the orientation.
A few stills of the finished article would have rounded it off nicely.
Thanks for sharing.
Did I miss the Plexi-glass size?and what hold the sides on just glue and screws?
looks great.
Thanks
Very nice Jim. I believe the Gripper is a great tool but unfortunately they are very expensive. I don't want to discredit shop safety - but does it have to be so expensive! I'd much rather spend my limited funds on tools or materials. I've been thinking about how to pull this off and it looks like you have done it. Great job. I'll be building myself a pair.
Nice
Very nice, do you have the plans for your microjig? thanks.
I don't sorry

The more I watch these "copy the real thing videos" the more I appreciate the manufacturers quality. I'll buy the real thing and pay a little more.
No Herbert, you'll pay a LOT more!
+Jonto Dickens nicely put...
Jim Rupert $60 or $70 is peanuts - no pro has hours to waste building what they can buy ready to go. It's a false economy to try to reproduce this stuff. Not to mention they've done all the safety certification and you haven't.
Tioga Fretworks if that's peanuts then please post your email address, ill send you my address in an email and you can send me some "peanuts" in the mail...I'm so thankful that I have viewers that are so very concerned for my safety...update: I've been using these for almost 2 and a half years and they still work great!
Tioga, if you could also post your youtube channel so I can critique your videos. No one is forcing you to make one of these, if you don't like the video, move on, you trolls are funny

I didn't watch further than about 90 seconds. The cutting technique for the first 8"wx2"l part was unwise- where the stock was crosscut using the fence to guide, instead of using a sled or miter gauge without the fence.
Bob Blarney thanks for taking the time to let us all know Bob!
Maybe you know about this, but some of your viewers might not.
@@BobBlarneystone dont you just love it when mister know it all shows up.
Turn your cell phone horizontal for these videos!
Turn it however you want, the video was fine.
hey Jim, you don't have a couple of those laying around you want to sell do you?
Haha, no I don't, sorry
what is the purpose of the clear Plexiglas piece?
it doesn't have to be a piece of plexiglass, could be any type of material it just keeps The Jig from wobbling
Muito bom! :D
Do you have a parts list?
i do not, sorry
Good info, but what's with the vertical video? It would have been so much better had you flipped your phone.
I realize that...1st time recording on my phone, and then it wouldn't let me rotate the footage... sorry
Very cool! Next time turn your phone sideways so we can get a full screen shot.
Very Cool, Subscribed and Shared, very nice , I like my friends at Micro Jig, but if you are short on funds, and want to do it yourself, here you go
Thank you
Nice video but seriously dude, don't use the table saw this way to cut down stock to size! I injured my fingers a while ago and i can tell you that is not a nice sensation, i don't want to bother you but it's darn easy for the wood to move and get caught by the blade and rip your fingers!
Thanks for the comment. This video was when I first got in to woodworking. It was around 5 years ago and I have since changed my ways. I know multiple people that have injured themselves and it was a major wake up call. I always use a push stick now. Thanks for the concerned comment, I truly appreciate it!
@@rupertpika151 i'm really glad you use protections! 😊

Audio sucks. You are just asking for an accident by not using a push stick or similar. 1:53.
Thanks Lynn! I appreciate your constructive criticism. I'll have to check out all your videos to pick up some tips and tricks. Also , I am aware of my audio issues, but this is a hobby. If you would like to make a donation so that I can purchase some software and audio equipment I would really appreciate it, if you are interested let me know and I'll send you my paypal ID. Thanks!! :)
You are pushing the wood on the side not in the middle this is an ideal way to cock the wood slightly sideways and have it get grabbed by the blade and possibly your hand with it. Nice sarcasm just because i don't have any vids I've made doesn't prove a thing just as apparently you having several doesn't prove you know how to work safely. Here are some vids for the viewers so they don't use their hands to push wood just a couple of inches from the blade. BTW I have a real gripper,cheap compared to having an accident.

@@lynnpoole7830 so is that a no for the donation then? Glad you picked up on the sarcasm, and this video was years ago, before I knew better, hence the reason for the video, to make my shop safer.
@@lynnpoole7830 also, it was just rude, im sure everyone else that has seen this video would agree that the audio is poor quality. Im not disagreeing with you. I just have a problem with someone being rude when you have no videos posted. It is difficult posting things, its a learning process like everything in life. I never said you have never made anything, my point was how easy it is to leave a negative comment when you have no content to critique. Its all good, but you could have said it in a nicer way. That is all, still I do appreciate your feedback and you taking the time to watch. I truly take the feedback in to consideration, and no longer use poor judgement like I once did. I plan on making a new and improved video and delete this one. Take care.
Your table saw cuts in the beginning are absolutely careless my friend. That first cut especially. You keep cutting like that it’s just a matter of time before you have a huge accident. I highly suggest practicing better table saw safety. Take it how you want-I have never seen someone cut like that in all my years of Woodworking. Extremely dangerous.
Thanks, this video was years ago, and i have changed my practices...i never realized how careless i was until someone pointed it out...i rewatched and thought oh yeah, thats bad...thanks for watching
Oh good! Also, your reproduction of the Grripper was very well done. The final result looked better than the actual Grripper.
@@josephandrews2353 Thanks, the video footage was subpar...Ive been meaning to make a new video
