    Awesome videos, I have picked up a lot in the last few weeks since I found your channel. One suggestion I have is more beginner videos. Those helped me the most and I wish you had ones showing joints as well. Simple things like your pocket hole video would be awesome but covering simple things that very beginners dont know yet like how to make rabbets and actually join them and dados, etc. I find a ton of videos showing things like making mitre cuts for corners but then they dont actually show how you join them or just gloss over it. I really enjoyed the quick beginner videos. Thanks for all of your work. looking forward to checking out the course sometime in the future when I can.

    Great advice Steve, I got some angles to cut on the table saw using 2x4 ripped down the edge to get two identical 3 sided (Isosceles triangles) and glue the two right angle sides together to make an equilateral triangle ( so it looks like a Swiss Toblerone bar) and fit it inside my kid's dolls house up inside the roof at the apex to reinforce the apex of the roof. So I will make good use of all your cautions on kickback, push-stick Thanks Mate.

    Steve, would you consider doing a video comparing your Incra Miter Gauge to a crosscut sled/miter sled? Maybe the pros and cons of each, or when you prefer to use one or the other. I've been thinking of getting the Incra 1000HD but would love to hear your opinion first.

    If you want to cut acute bevels on the table saw you can clamp the board against a sacrificial board and run everything through standing upright. Hope that makes sense. Took me some time to figure this out.

    "There two kinds of angle cuts in woodworking: the miter and the..." WAIT you didn't say micro jig. I've always found your delivery of their sponsorship at the beginning of your episodes to be one of the more effective product placements on UA-cam. For some reason now it's completely thrown me off that you didn't say micro jig. If they ended their sponsorship of you, they still owe you a few checks. I don't think I'll be able to watch your videos without waiting for the micro jig part at the beginning. Also, as always awesome information! Thanks for sharing!

    If I'm making multiple bev cuts, I tend to stand well off to one side. If a few off-cuts build up near the back of the blade it is possible for one to catch a tooth and zing off across the shop at an alarming rate. If cutting compound angles these pieces usually have nasty sharp pointy bits and act something like shuriken. So, off to the side, and don't be lazy like me, keep the out feed area free from build up. Happy cutting ;¬)

  • @harrypowers9412
    @harrypowers9412 5 років тому

    Do you have any advice for cutting a LONG bevel on a 30” (or longer) long edge for a cabinet door? I made a jig for cutting bevels and it DOES work fine as long as the cut is on a short edge of the board; i.e., when the panel is about the same length as the table saw bed; but if if it’s a longer edge I can’t successfully clamp the board to my jig. Any help would be appreciated.

I have check to make sure everything is level and square, but a bit of a novice at this. Any help would be appreciated.

  • @scottdoremus4735
    @scottdoremus4735 5 років тому

    When cutting a bevel on the table saw AND you're working with an outside dimension say, for a tea box or something, how do you make sure your cut is dead on when you can't see exactly where the blade will land at the top of the board (coming up from the table)? Is there a trick to this? I'm sure you could use a stop block for subsequent cuts but, what about the initial cut? A newb question for sure.

    Steve, I'd hoped you'd cover techniques of how to cut pieces with bevels or miters precisely to specific lengths, ideally pieces with miters on both ends like in picture frames., Maybe it's just me but I keep ending up having to 'creep up' on the right size and I get the feeling that just can't be it.

    I recently needed to rip a triangle cross-section on a board. That turned into quite a big question mark: How was I to do that? The only solution I could figure was to double sided tape the piece to a much wider board, and run that against my fence, sacrificing the wider board.
    Is there a better way?

    I am trying to build a windmill. But the cuts require a bevel and a miter on each of the six boards. The top measurement is 5 in across and the bottom measurement is 11 what a 30-degree connecting both. What kind of jig can I use to accomplish this?

    A video where the Micro-jig was important and no Micro-jig opening? Informative video though. Will the bevel box help check your blade even for the basic 90 degree cut? And do you check your blade every time you set it back to 90 also?

    • @SteveRamsey
      @SteveRamsey  7 років тому

      +Paul John's Life It can ceck 90 degrees. I don't typically check my blade every time when I set it back because I don't usually build things that require that much precision! But it's not a bad idea.

    @williammchugh7584 4 роки тому

    Hi, can someone help me figure out how to make a specific bevel cut on a table saw?
    Using 3/4" sheet material the final piece must be 8' long and must be 6" wide with a 45 degree bevel on both sides; the final 6" width is point to point.
    What I'm asking is A) should I first make square rips and if so how wide? and B) if I rip a 45 on one side of the material, how do I accurately measure and rip a bevel on the opposite side ensuring that it's 6" point to point? Setting my fence to 6" and then tilting the blade 45 degrees will cause the top side of my piece to be greater than 6".

  • @JakeSpeed1000
    @JakeSpeed1000 7 років тому

    I believe "Miter" refers to the joint. A bevel is a type of cut. i.e. putting a bevel on a piece of wood or putting pieces of wood together with a miter joint.
