I started working in 1979. Working and figuring how to make setups easier over the years. Now I sharing my system. Thank you for noticing the advantages of the Kizen Mitre Fence

My craft brain just ran off the rails. This is actually really cool.

I would like to elaborate on the angles. The finish angle of the two pieces is 40D not 70. If you take the gauge he used and look for the zero on the inner dial and follow the line to the outer dial it is pointing at 40. That is the actual angle. The 70 that he is referring to is the miter saw setting. If you have a 40d angle you need two 20d cuts. So 90-20=70. That is your saw setting. The large arrow on the dial is for a single cut. Let’s say you want a 40d angle for a piece of wood which will be placed against a wall. If that angle is 40d then 90-40=50 which is the saw setting. You’ll see the inter dial is pointed at 50. His angle finder is excellent. You can get dead accurate cuts with it. It can be confusing at first but if you play with it, it becomes very clear. Also the settings on a miter saw refer to what you are cutting away. So if it’s set at 30 you are cutting away 30d which leaves you with a 60d angle on the piece. Just remember all settings are based off of 90d.

Tom actually reached out to me himself! Great guy with some great ideas! I’m planning on taking on more trim jobs the first of the year. Definitely going to invest in this setup!

Make jigs like this all the time, it’s nice to c someone took it to the next level, nice when framing a frame houses jig isn’t as easy cus you need to clamp to saw, I like this

That is an awesome tool for when I'm doing panel mould or wainscot on stairways, I always make my own jig, but it's time consuming , BRAVO

Game changer for cutting in a roof or second fixing. I’m kind pissed i didn’t think of this lol. I just have a plywood block @45 that I just clamped down! I hope people realize the simple genius of this and you make millions 🎉

I worked at a Woodworking store in the early 2000's, and we had this customer who was always making jigs out of South American hard woods so they would last. He would package them in plastic bags, with all the parts so you could either assemble them or he would assemble them and come in every few weeks, set up his saws and demonstrate them for customers, and if they bought one we got a cut. He built something like this, and had a fab shop make them out of aluminum, but they were expensive. When the web got hot, he got them made in bulk, and sold them to a lot of the big box stores, wood working stores and even the tool crib. Last time I heard about him, he had made millions by selling this designs to a major tool manufacturer.

You can do the same thing with the clamps that come with the saw and scrap piece of material.

That is awesome! I just did my stairs with a homemade jig of me holding the 45 degree piece in place with one hand while cutting the trim with the other. It was super sketchy and would have loved something like this

And that's how you get a longer miter out of a miter saw. I needed this tip about 2 years ago, but I'm sure it'll come in handy in the future.

Years ago, I was able to answers a person's query on finding the compound miter for a chair rail molding that angled up a stair wall then turned at the top wall going back to horizontal. The answer is there is no compound miter that will work in that scenario. However, the solution is quite simple. A few inches before the molding reaches the top make the angle cut that returns the piece to horizontal and 45 miter that small piece to joint with the horizontal molding of the abjointing wall.

Cool tool

Really cool. You can make your own pretty easily by just clamping a board and cutting a 45, then using that as your reference surface to get those angles you typically couldn't set your miter saw to cut.

Awesome!

Well, well, you've pulled another rabbit out of your hat. Thanks for sharing.

Makes me want to do some miters.

I always end up having to make something and I never save it that would be awesome

Yup, but instead I just clamp a square piece of stock flat against the fence and to the base plate… Then 0° becomes 90°, 10° becomes 80°, 20° becomes 70° and so on… and 45° is still 45°… So if you’re cutting picture frame wainscoting and you set it up right you can cut all your angles by setting your saw on 45°… then by using both fences & a stop, you’ll never have to swing your saw.

I love those spring clamps, use them all the time.

So do I!! When i was taught 30yrs ago my master lived by those spring clamps !! I was gifted 4 of them to begin my learning! To this day i have never seen another in the stores! Fast forward 10yrs i meet my to be wifes grandfather! Retired marine , plus like50yrs of trim master carpentry !! You get the point. Him an i became instant friends .well he was sick with cancer an died 14months later.however before that he gives me all his work tools so i could take care of his only granddaughter. In this collection,were maybe 50 of these clamps.he had been building them himself he loved so much

Not sure if it’s because I’m extremely high or because I’m just a lowly residential electrician but cutting crown molding always seems so fucking complicated. If you give me a caulking gun and some not silicone caulk I will do some crown molding but never anywhere close to what you carpenters do. Hats off to you guys!

Can turn a single bevel into a double bevel for at least part of your cuts if I understand it right

I've used to clamp a block against the fever to make miters bigger than 50 degrees

Ridgid makes a chop saw that cuts around 75 without fancy fences. It's a nice saw.

That’s pretty cool

It's a great jig but it looks like one of those things I would only use once in a long while. I rarely need to make anything over 60°

It's like sweet and precise even

That's cool. I always had to make my own on site.

Amazing tool. Probably a pain in the ass with a long piece but still I want one.

That's badass

I needed this on the weekend damit

This is mandatory

I'm guessing that's 6061 Aluminum, very nice addition to the saw.

Thats awesome

I take a 2x4 lay it against my fence, cut two 45 degree angles, take the center triangle cutout, and clamp down, then lay your material in your 45 degree cutout

OK… that’s awesome! If you’re a novice and tried to cut a 70° angle, you realize how frustrating it is when you realize you can’t on a regular miter saw. And you start questioning what the hell is going on, why doesn’t this work. You think to yourself it’s a saw, it should cut it.

You should be doing scarf joints for base boards and crown moulding, straight one angle cuts aren't going to make perfect corners like that every time

That is sweet

Any trim carpenter worth his salt would have built one of these out of scrap wood a long time ago. Check out this pronext that I will describe. In a small powder room that is Triangular in shape. We're installing 5 1/2" crown molding. Describe how you would install it with joints only in the corners of the Triangle? ( You only need 4 pieces of crown molding to do the job)

Dope

'Miter saw trick everyone should know': spend $400 on this jig.

Smart

How safe is it? Can you clamp your material? Is there a way to put in a backstop? Or does it rely on the operator's ability to hold the material steady, both angle wise and from being pulled by the blade?

This is nice and I also have made things similar. Probably just a dull blade I had but is there a trick to keep the saw from pulling in the piece towards the saw?

This dude is straight-up money bags. If someone ever stole your work rig. Damn.

This is way safer than when put my speed square 1mm from the blade

Personally I would make on for the pitches of roof systems. Like the common 4/12 roof... 18.4 degrees.

What brand of saw is that? Could use it for sure!

Damn I should have thought of that tool

would be nice if the fence had a flat bit on the bottom that is level with the base of the saw so you can reference off two surfaces instead of the bottom of the workpiece just hanging

Does it attached to the current Dewalt fence?

Starrett!!!

Where can I find that fence?!
