    Video: Simple and to the point. No annoying background music. No "Hey there, UA-camrs" with a 10 minute history on life events that culminated into the moment you made this video. Thank you.

    I quite liked how thoroughly you documented the entire process. I loved that there was no jarring music, nor needless narration. I quite enjoyed your video, and I subscribed. Thank you for sharing your efforts with us.

    I love the concept, but hated the delivery, but then I read the description and saw to turn on the closed caption. Watched it again with closed captioning and loved the delivery. Great project.

    I love the idea of combining these two. I ended up going with two different ones because I use box joints instead of finger joints and I didn't want to look the zero clearance on my cross cut sled. Great job!

    Brother, you're very ninja, congratulations.

    Until now i did not think a SIMPLE anything would produce tight finger joints, and if it did it was with an enormous outlay of time fiddling. This looks like some fiddling would still be needed but the simplicity(with accuracy) of it is beautiful. Great design.

    Subscribed. I was planning on creating a sled with optional finger joint jig built in. Thank you for showing me the way forward. I would like to be able to use a dado blade and variable width fingers... I haven't looked at your other videos yet. Perhaps you have added features. I don't have room to keep many many jigs around.

    I’m not sure how in love with the idea I am, especially since it seems you might need to do a test cut every time to make sure you’ve positioned the insert correctly. However, I am in love with your presentation style. Very well done. Love the captions in place of voiceover! Subbed!

    Very nice piece! One of the things that caught my attention were the runners - as opposed to the majority, you made them slightly proud of the track, thus the sled only contacts the table with the runners. I guess you made it so to reduce drag on the surface - something I have to try and compare the results.

    Excellent video! But I have a question. I have watched a bunch of videos on making a sled and the 1 thing I don't understand is why everyone squares up the back stop against the slice cut into the base. Why wouldn't you raise the blade up through the slice and then square the back stop directly with the blade to be more precise?
    Thanks for the great video.

    Where do you get a table saw blade that cuts a 90 degree profile slot? All I can find are the offset teeth style that leave a high spot in the center of the cut like at 9:20 in this video.

    Why is the red piece needed? 🤔 Is it there to keep the finger joint piece from getting pushed back?

    • @jbestell
      @jbestell 6 років тому +3

      in this case yes, but on most responsibly-built sleds it is also there to keep you from cutting off your thumbs. I've had people roll their eyes because I paint the center area of my sleds red as well as the 'blade catcher' behind the back fence but trust me, when you are making 100's of repeat cuts it's easy to put your fingers in the wrong place.

    • @HBSuccess
      @HBSuccess 6 років тому +1

      My uncle, a master Carpenter and furniture builder with 40+ years in the trades - was missing pieces of both his thumbs bc of tablesaw sled injuries (no back guard). It's the most important piece of that sled IMO. Its so easy to let the saw whirring lull you into a trance so you forget where your hands are relative to the blade.
