Thankx for the video. Once you cut the first one, the number after that is only limited by the length of the board you cut the first one from.......been using a slight variation of this method for years. Don't know why you see so many complicated jigs on the internet and cumbersome time consuming methods for cutting a hexagon. You can modify this cut and make other cool items too! Make some more videos!
If you look in the beginning of the video around :57 you will see a 30 degree cut through the mark on his stock........this is saved.... after the second 30 degree cut you don't move your stock and hold it in place the the off cut made at the :57 second mark.....the extra boards are just used to hold the off-cut in place by the clamp.....you then simply rotate your stock after each 30 degree cut counter clockwise. If your measurements are correct you will make 3 cuts on each coaster ......sometimes if you are off a little it will take 4 cuts and still turn out fine
Thanks. Simple clever👍Good luck.

Thanks! I’m trying to make more, life is just busy haha I appreciate the feedback.
@@ExploreLifeWithDaniel Just curious, what was the width of the starting stock 4.5 or 5 inches....hard to tell in the video
It was 4 1/2 inches, they ended up giving me a size that was reasonable for most cup sizes including normal sized mugs
Don't worry about the dislikes; they're squares!
Nothing like doing it the hard way
I am sure you tried to make it simple, but I am lost at 2:30 . Wish you could explain instead of playing music.
Thank you for the feedback! I’m trying some different styles in my videos to see what more people enjoy.
