Amazing ideas all around. Extremely customizable to personal needs, no routing out grooves for tracks makes its very beginner friendly, which I'm a fan of. The 1/8 "gap", and tips of this sort, are exactly why I come here. I would have never thought of that. Thank you
This guy is awesome. Just a beginner here. I know taking apart brake & suspension systems, repairing them & replacing parts is very easy. After 10 yrs $$$$$$$. He just solved my issue the way I like it. Thank you Bearded Man. Your Great....Work Smart not Hard.....
Amazingly simple, I'm totally going to build/buy this when I finish building a miter stand cabinet! Thanks for the video!
You are a natural teacher( I know from 30 yrs experience). Fun, informative, easy to follow directions. Keep it up please.
the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. kzread.infoUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.
I waited till tonight to watch this video because I was working this morning when I looked at my phone and saw the notification. And there is no sense watching your videos without a good old rock of bourbon on the rocks.So now I am sitting here enjoying some Jim Beam on the rocks, entertaining as always, keep it up👍😎.
Jason: I found you a few weeks ago. I am going to find and watch ALL your videos. You have a great 'entertainment' technique. you turn a dry presentation into a engaging one. That said, I am 65 now, and only had a single-wide converted carport to work in (that I had to share with wifes/daughters 'stuff'. I was always moving 3 things to get access to one tool, then move stuff again to get access to another tool. NO MORE, I am about 75% done building my 'shed', it's 24x48 with 10' ceiling. All 2x6 construction. I'd upload a pic if I could, but don't know how. Anyway, one of the 1st thing I will be doing is implementing many of your 'suggestions'. Thanks and keep up the great work.
I just finished making mine. The fence worked like a charm. It was much easier to cut and drill holes in the angle iron than I thought it would be. Thanks!

Did you find long lengths of the extruded fence or simpy butt pieces together?
This is giving me all kinds of ideas... I’m thinking threaded inserts for the angle iron with some room for adjustability and leaving the ability to temporarily remove the whole thing. Love the bolting method for t-track... the screws always suck in plywood, especially if in a dado groove. No need for epoxy wit bolts either

Yes, love it! I was thinking even If I had The luxury of having a workbench, I would not want the track to be there. Great video though, you are a cuckoo but makes your video more fun to watch!
Tanks for the video and the good mood that you bring. Greatings from France.
Another excellent video. Thank you for sharing. I’ve been looking at a few different fence options for my miter saw. This video made up my mind! Thanks for the links too for the parts needed to complete this!
I happened upon your video and decided to watch. You crack me up. I couldn’t get past the beginning... twice.. without laughing. The third time was a charm. I’m going to subscribe just to watch the comedy show. Thank you.
Just finished this today, inspired by your video!! Looks awesome!!
Love the way it slides out the way
Dude.. your old skool cigar boxes brought so many memories of my dad there... we used to keep photos in them as weans (scottish word for kids).. I love your video's
Just wanted to say that I am watching and enjoying all of your videos. Even as a relatively experienced woodworker, I have picked up some really useful tips. I will try using undermount runners (once I get over how expensive they are-but hope to make up the money in saved time).
Please make more videos! You do amazing stuff, both with videos and with woodworking.
Entertaining and useful as always. Thank you!
Excellent design - just ordered my parts to do. Thank you!
My new favorite channel. Well done sir.
Awesome video, thanks again for sharing your experience and expertise l.
Another great video. Thanks!!
I will absolutely do this. Thanks.
I just adore this. I can't have it, but I adore it. I have one bench that I need for various jobs. Maybe with slotted t-tracks in the countertop so I can slide it forward and back, and a few small dowel holes for quick alignment... then I'll be able to mount multiple tools to the same spot as long as I can adjust their height. I already had to make big adjustable fences for my router and drill press. Maybe I can make it one fence, multiple tools. Not to mention having that one long and flat plane.
Cool fence! I will be making one of those this weekend. Thanks for sharing.
Very good project. Thanks
another great video...thanks Jason
I couldn’t help but notice that poster of all those pipes behind your miter saw. My favorite pipe style is a Canadian with a little Dunhill Early Morning Pipe for my smoking pleasure. Cheers and thanks for your videos.
Awesome. Well done.
Bro. You’re a legend. The quality and personality in this video earned you a sub. Great video man!
Know I finally have a use for that dusty aluminum T-track which I removed from the ceiling some time ago. Thanks man !!!
This is genius! Thank you!
Simple but EXTREMELY effective!!
I like your humour, great video info, you have given me some good ideas, thanks!
Really enjoy and learn a lot from your videos. You are so funny too.
Running in the shop can be DANGEROUS. Stay safe. Keep Being You!!@
Pretty awesome Jason
Hi there loving your channel here’s a little tip for you I watched a video you did where you show a easy way to set the depth stop on your router using setting out blocks which are very expensive instead I use a Alan key or even drill bits 👍🏼 keep the vids coming
Brilliant!
Jason, You ain't right.... LOL, Great Channel. Great Attitude.
Bloody fantastic jason, thanx for another great video x.
Nice job funny and informative. See on you next project.
Good stuff!
Wow good man, excellent !!!!!
Awesome!!!
Such a cool video, so entertaining. Nice fence, so simple and useful. Mahalo for sharing! : )
I was hoping you would do a video on that fence. It really does seem like it’s almost “too easy.” Thanks for sharing. 😊
Nice job moth man
Great idea! Thanks for waking us through it. “We” appreciate it. (There’s no we...ha ha)
I like your pipe chart , your mitre saw fence is ok too.
Nice. Thanks.
Always entertaining!!! Oh, I learned a lot too!! 😁🇺🇸
When I build my work tables I always build them 1/2" short and screw a "sacrificial" 1/2" piece of plywood ontop to protect the actual table top. When it gets messed up simply remove it and put a new one on.
Cool tip my friend 😎
Dude, you are so funny! Thanks for sharing
very nice!
Hey, hope you are safe from the fires and smoke down there.
Funny dude! And great information. Thank you!
I was going to ask about that cool fence 😃
Can you do a video on how you finish with Rubio? What products you use and the overall process
More good stuff!
Well done Jason, thanks for the info! 😃👍🏻👊🏻 .... Luckily you had a few loose screws! 😉
Really good idea. Great instructions although I would have liked a closer view of you using the .125 thick tool to set the extruded alum piece. Thanks for a great video and I look forward to your next video!! 👍👍👍👍👍

I still didn’t understand why he set it back
Great idea. I might suggest adding 3 prong nut with 1/4 bolts anf thumb screw for angle iron allows whole system to be removed if you need work space.
You are SOOO silly 🙃!! I love it, and your videos!!
So I had done the same thing a couple years ago, but just scrapped the fences and inset t track into the work surface. This frees up a ton of space and also lets you cross cut stock that might be less than straight
I have a very similar setup to this at work.... but keeping a spare 10" spacer rather than 12" makes for easier mathing for me and the people I work with :)
Listen hear Jason, I had made my mind up that when I build my new miter saw station, I was going to use a bench on one side, and a flip up extender on the other side due to space constratints. Now watching this, I am back to building both sides with a bench. What am I going to do with Delta/Rockwell Jointer that will not fit under the bench. Thanks so much for the conundrum. All that said, I really like this fence system that is brilliantly simple.
Liked-Subscribed-Notified. Great video. Nice an easy shop add on.
I love this guy! \m/
That idea is going to be used for my chop saw for metal.
Can you do a video on drilling angle iron with no shavings? That was impressive!
You are too funny. Thank you for the great video
Great tip on the 1/8" offset. I hadn't though about that, but makes perfect sense!

While i would agree, i was a little confused later on when he talked about setting the aluminum flush against the saw fence. Maybe it was just me, but I feel like he contradicted himself later in the video. Such an awesome idea though

Roberto from italy. Hi started watching you videos and are really enjoying them. I love to do wood work but do not have a big work shop like every one in the USA. , i just work outside and do small projects. But anyway keep up tbe good videos. Greatings from Italy venice.
Great videos man! I've watched all of them. How about making a exterior door for a house?
Your videos make my day. They are so informative and there's always something that makes you laugh. For that I thank you. How would you insert a 12 inch planer to be level with worktable, same as you have miter saw?
OK the "so the next thing me need to do" joke got a sub.
congrats on 100k views!
Thanks for the video. The flipping stop is nice. To avoid referencing anything other than my miter saw fence, I embedded t track into the tables on the left and right. Now they also work as assembly tables with a whole grid of t tracks. Just another option in case it fits someone's need out there.

I'm thinking of doing exactly this. Do you have any regrets doing it like that? Stop blocks in the way, etc?
Rather than using only a straightedge, consider using a laser to sight the full length of your fence... that way you don't get any error at all even @ 6' or more from the saw, if your fence is that long. Set the laser on the opposing side so it slides down the entire length of your target fence, with the light visible along the built-in miter fence...
Such a funny guy. Thanks for the actually useful tips so far. Perhaps leave a minute earlier so you don't have to race all the time Jason!
Love this dude and his abilities, but DAMN! This fence system is worth more than my miter saw and workbench combined
How accurate do the measurements stay when moving the fence? Do you have a method for fine tuning the measuring tape?
Nice Video. I did notice the link for tha aluminum appears to be for the 12” length, not the 4’ one.
LOL You're so silly... Love it.
Nice job and yes it is nice to have but they are expensive for a beginner.
Good stuff! Thanks!
Where is the drink of the month... we need this...
Your suggestion about moving the aux fence back 1/8" from the miter saw fence seems to make practical sense for the times when you have a bow in the workpiece. However, if the aux fence is not going to touch the workpiece, why have an aux fence in the first place? Are the flip stop and the tape measure the reason you have the aux fence? If you have a bow in the board, an aux fence placed flush with the miter saw fence, would be a quick way to identify the problem, which then could be addressed with the jointer or a track saw prior to cross cutting on the miter saw with an accurate fence. A longer accurate fence would also assist in aligning a long board for an accurate cross cut, rather than relying on the short fence of the miter saw.

Same same don’t get it. Why set up up for something that it not right in the first place. If the board is flush the fence is not helping. Is it.
Great vid, appreciate your humor. I was going to build a fence for mine but its on a mobile cart with fold up wings. I just need the fence to be 2 feet long. Any problem with using the miter saw to cut the aluminum fence?
Do the nuts of the stoppers get in the way of measuring for higher boards?
Thanks for sharing your videos. How straight is the extruded aluminum?
On those woodpecker stoppers you can flip them and use the second hole , that way your stopper sits flush with your fence .
Love the 'tongue and cheek.' Perhaps a video on walking or eating might be needed soon in this world.
Also. Any help on leveling the miter saw to the table top would be helpful to me. I got mine very close by using shims to raise or lower it, but is there a better way to do this? Love your channel.
I also find sliding the stops enjoyable and making choo choo train 🚂 noises haha
Thanks for sharing, what's in the cigar boxes?
Job: Beard model. Hobby: Wood work. 😂 Cool projects. Please keep up the good work.
