Thanks for this video Steve, not just for the great jig but I think it’s actually really helpful to be reminded that even somebody who’s obviously extremely competent and experienced can have an accident on a table saw, I’ve been a carpenter for 30 odd years and I have a very healthy respect for table saws, you can get caught out so quickly even after thinking you’ve covered all the angles. Thank you for leaving that part in and not editing it out, lots of respect for that👍

Knowing how much work you had put into making that fence even makes me upset at your builder. It's admirable though how you were willing to find a positive end result. It is still a very respectable example of a reliable work fence, one that you couldn't find out of the box. Kudos to you 👏

Steve - you really need to use extraction with your domino. The amount of eccentric movement in the machine means it needs to be extracted otherwise it could wear out early or worse fail.

I do like your multiple jig inserts and one sliding table! I have seen a lot of similar videos cutting the slots on one side of the joint and then cutting the second piece. However, another video cut the first slot in one piece then located the edge and allowed the matching slot in the second piece to be cut. The two pieces were then fitted over the pin and "glued" with double sided tape. The remaining slots in both pieces were then cut at the same time. I feel that this would have a better chance of ensuring that the pitches match perfectly. Would this remove (or reduce) any errors in a "creeping pitch"?
@stevemaskery9940Ай бұрын
It might possibly make the operation very slightly faster, but it would be marginal. And if you have "creeping pitch" then there must be some sort of inaccuracy in the jig, or in the way it is being operated. I've had and used this jig for several years now and have never had such problems, so I'm happy to leave it as it is. The only time I've had a (very small) problem was after the jig had been in a damp environment for a couple of years. The dimensions of the peg increased by a fraction, making location a tad stiff, but a few minutes recalibrating it sorted that out.

Excellent like all others before. Just one thing Steve, when you make videos like this do not use the blade guard for the viewers to be able to see the cut as is made, everybody does that for video purposes only, you should though give verbal emphasis of-course that the blade guard should be always be used.

When lowering the board, your hand is so close to the router bit. Is there any other technique which is more safer? Also, it you are doing this with very hardwood lick Hichory or Jatoba, is there a chance of kick back when you are lower on to the blade?
@SteveMaskeryАй бұрын
You are right to realise that this is a potentially risky technique. But the risks are minimised by two very important factors. 1. Take VERY shallow cuts, just 1 or 2 millimeters at a time. Yes, that makes it time-consuming. 2. Make sure that the two stop boards are well clamped. The one nearest me is the most critical. But together the two give me a very controlled cut.

Sorry, no. Millimetres are the international standard for length. But it's easy enough to convert. As a rule of thumb, 25mm is roughly equivalent 1", or if you want to be more precise, 25.4mm = 1". HTH.
