Quite a neat idea for chiseling miters. I would probably modify my miter chiselling jig to be more like that...

Good luck!

Truly a man that has forgotten more about woodworking than we will ever learn. Always a joy to watch your videos and by coincidence my copy of "Traditional Jigs & Fixtures for Handtools" arrived scarcely a week ago!

Great!

I'm very grateful to Rex Krueger for sending me over to this channel, I haven't learned this much in a few years! Shooting boards make more sense now (after watching this and the episode on shooting boards)!

Thanks!

Something I realized when I was first cutting miters: if you just have a basic shooting board with a perpendicular support, you can take the rule off your combination plane and rest it on the support to shoot your 45

Thanks so much!

Thank you for adding the Tips & Tricks, like adding support blocks under the cut.

Happy to help!

I've never thought about using what I took for only a center finder on the combination square to measure miters! Hah, always more to learn! Thank you Graham!

In High School the shop also had a big miter box but it used a sharp knife that would shear the miter.

Thanks, you too!

I use a wooden mitre box a lot in the shop, usually followed by a cast iron mitre trimmer. I used to have an Oliver No. 2 trimmer, which weighed about 400 pounds. I miss that machine but I don't miss the floor space it took up!

Sorry about that. I gave him another call. Maybe let me know again exactly what you wanted. Best,GB

Good information and options most woodworkers don't consider. Thank you for sharing. Also, I have picked up most.of your books over the years. Lots of tips, tricks and "lost" knowledge in all of them.

The donkey ear mitre jig you showed in your book is the perfect jig for trimming mitres on mouldings. Something for a future video?

I have a Stanley 460 mitre box like yours and needed to cut an angle on some pieces that where not available as one of the preset stops. Is there a way to make it stay in a non preset position? If I recall I shimmed fence to get what I needed.

@gjbmunc

Shimmed fence or a clamped stop can help, or you can use a shooting board with an angled stop.

If you don't do anything freehand, then how do you make the jig ? 😂 Have you ever tried a miter jack, i would have loved to see it in the video
