Clever. Genuinely useful, and relatively simple to make. Nice video.

I have to say, this is a great start! I’ve been woodworking for a good few years and far out, to cut straight seems an impossibility! I weakened and bought a drop saw but for small & softwood cuts, my Japanese saws should be the way. I’ll build one for sure, Thankyou mate!

Regarding the nattering nabobs of negativity who tout skill over tools, a person with essential tremors or someone with vision challenges would absolutely need this guide. It would restore the pleasure of woodworking for them. Please note that in the movie Bambi it was said, (paraphrased to eliminate a double negative) "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all." Thank you for putting this out there. Please make version two with the holding lips. I want to see it...

No problem. I'm giving it some thought re the "holding lips". It would work well for the narrow-ish board I cross cut in my video. But for a wider board, you would be forced to hold the saw guide on one side, which might allow an inaccuracy across the whole cut. That might not be an issue, I will experiment at some stage. Currently I'm working on a sloped version of this guide for dovetails which will be in an upcoming video (but maybe not the next one). Thanks for your comment, glad you can see how this guide will work well for people of varying abilities.

Nice video and jig, thanks. I am one of those transitioning away from power tools (large tools to start with, table saw, sliding miter saw, large band saw, ...). I have used crude (non magnetic) guides with some success. I have also taken some advice from Paul sellers (draw the cut line on top, front, and back, make a few passes then flip the board, make more passes, flip, and so on). Now I'm thinking that for cuts that need to be right (i.e. can't easily be fixed), use a guide with all 3 cut lines drawn and flip back and forth. Perhaps this is overkill though.

You need to start the cut at a sharp angle down then across the top line. Turn the piece around and do the same thing. You also need a ryoba with a long handle and do the cut with both hands as if you’re a samurai warrior. No need for a jig. This is what I learned after watching many Japanese woodworking videos

Nice jig! Great idea. To offer a little “video” production advice: when laying in text on a video, during editing it’s best to play back the video while reading your text to yourself out loud at a normal pace. This will allow you to figure out the proper length of time that this text needs to appear on screen to allow people to read it before the text disappears. I watched this video and had to stop and back up the video several times in order to read all the text. I’m sure others had to do that as well. Also, reading text when watching a video does pull a viewer’s attention away from actually seeing what’s happening on the video, so laying down a voiceover is always best. Keep up the good work; great jig!

Appreciate your comment. Adding the text on this one was an afterthought, the initial intention of the video for interest only. One thing you can do is change the playback speed of the video using the KZread video player controls to slow it right down. Moving forwards, I'm considering running two channels. One will be for entertainment purposes only, i.e. people who are not interested in the technical details can just watch me make something and listen to the tool noises etc. The other channel will have more of a technical/DIY focus and I will voice over the videos to explain what's happening.

I haven't watched the video yet, but I already see how this can be improved with three ball bearings for the saw to roll on. Or just use a traditional frame saw - the size of the frame makes it easier to fix the angle of the saw to some point and keep it close to that angle.

Although there are similarities with the Katz-Moses jig, this one is designed primarily for cutting straight. It has a longer cutting guide, additional magnets, supports the saw blade down the entire stem, works for cross cuts as well as rip cuts and has sandpaper grip included for each type of cut. The concept of saw guides have actually been around for decades, probably even centuries and have appeared in a number of woodworking books. Different elements of all the saw guides I've seen went into this one. If someone intends on getting into dovetails, then yes, a Dovetail specific jig would be a good option. For someone who simply wants to cut straight (both rip cuts and cross cuts), the saw guide presented in this video would be a good option. The design is also uncomplicated compared to a dovetail guide and is much easier to make.

You can polish the saw blade, then look while cutting at the blade. If its mirroring in one line its 90° cut.

@SianaGearz

Wasted effort to mirror polish a disposable saw blade. There is unusual hardening and precision profile so they're not made to be resharpened.

Hi Daniel, please don't take this the wrong way because it is *not* a criticism or a negative comment. If I can't cut a straight line (and I can't I am just hopeless) then this jig would be just ideal for me but to make it I need to not only cut several straight lines but they also need to be square. Now if only I had a jig for that. Do you see the small problem I have? Nice idea though. 👍👍

The irony here is that in order to make this, I'd have to cut straight! An excellent idea by the way.

Adding magnets to them is reasonably new and David Barron was the first person I head of who did it. There were likely others before him. Regarding the design of my guide, it's actually quite different from the Katz Moses one. His one, as you say, is primarily made for dovetail angles. My guide is designed for cutting straight at 90 degree angles. The Katz Moses guide does have a 90 degree side but does not support the saw down the entire stem like my design. If I wanted to be picky, I could also point out that it does not have sandpaper to hold it in place like mine and would not work very well for a cross cut (last example in my video). And since my guide is designed to handle longer cuts than just dovetail widths, it has a longer body and additional magnet (3 per side, not 2). I'm not planning on selling it but if i did, I can't see there being any issues. I haven't seen any 90 degree magnetic saw guides with exactly the same design as my one.

Provided you are using proper technique (body and head position etc), I don't see the harm in them.

This is a worthwhile post by Kiwi Workshop. Due to nerve damage, and aging vision, I don't always have the dexterity, control and vision.

Simple. Apply a much stable control on desired postion you are moving that excel more than the resistance.

The magnetic guide does not really work well with longer cuts. The video shows only abou 2 inch of cut. The longer the cut the worst the error. This is a geometric principle that a 0.5⁰ small error will result in alignment error the longer down the plank one cuts.
