  • With this jigsaw circle cutting jig idea you DON'T have to drill a hole to insert the jigsaw blade to cut the wooden circle. So, with this woodworking idea we will cut perfect wooden circles with no marks in the edge. Cutting circles with a jigsaw is quite easy, and making a woodworking jig to cut circles is also very easy, and now, with this woodworking technique those wood circles will have a perfect and clean edge.
    A similar woodworking trick also helps to cut a perfect oval (watch this video in my new channel):

    This is perfect since all I have is a jigsaw. Other videos show routers, etc. which I don't have. You came up with a simple technique.

    I often don't have the "ideal" tool for the job, and have to come up with something that works as good and even better. Saves money too.

    I wish I found your video before I bought a 9-inch hole saw for my subwoofer project. I already have a jigsaw and didn't know I could cut a perfect circle of any diameter, wow! Thanks for sharing!

    The radius guide is an old trick. I use one with my router to cut large circles. The entry trick is new to me, though.
    For cutting an inside circle, put the temporary screw between the radius center and the blade. You'll need to drill a hole to start the cut, but it will be clean, just like his outside cut.

    You can also cut internal circles if your new pilot screw in between main screw and jigsaw. But you need to drill a hole.

  • @jhellier
    @jhellier 7 місяців тому

    This is great! I saw another video that used coat hanger wire instead of wood but your method looks even more reliable 👍
    I am trying to decide whether I need a circular saw to cut straight lines in 12mm mdf (200 to 500mm cuts). Is this doable with a good "budget brand" jigsaw?
    Could the same jigsaw be used to cut 11cm circles in 3mm mdf (with fine tooth metal blade)?

  • @SAHBfan
    @SAHBfan 3 роки тому

    This is clever! But I think it could work for holes as well? If the extra pin was placed between the main pivot and the saw, the saw would swing inside the circle instead of outside. Using the same ‘line up the line’ technique and switch pins should then give you a perfect hole?

    • @WoodworkingwithDIYtools
      @WoodworkingwithDIYtools  3 роки тому

  • @oaroar3956
    @oaroar3956 9 місяців тому

    I tried to repeat this method but ran into problems with the jigsaw blade being deflected by the curve or the circle (I was trying to make a smaller circle as per the above video)... The jigsaw never got to bite into the wood... I had to cut it out by hand and eye on a bandsaw. Disappointed that the above method did not work for me. Any type of special balde being used? Angle of attack? Maybe a square board would work better, I imagine once the blade is into the wood and following the curve it would do the job.
    Thanks for the video....
