In this video I show you how I make two different jigs for my circular saw or skill saw. I start with a rip cut jig and then use part of that jig to make a cross cut jig as well.

Great question @amonty4022, I haven't had this problem myself. As with all things in life there are compromises to be made. If having the jig absolutely flush is more important than the grip offered then don't use the sanding pads. Either way we are talking about a fraction of a mm which don't normally make a difference if you are using a circular saw for the cut. I hope this helps 😊

@MakeItWithTim 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you OZGamer, I'm glad you found it easy to follow. The jigs should work for a 45 degree cut as well (although I've not used these for a 45 degree cut). Just be aware that once you have used them for a 45 degree cut they wont be as accurate for cutting your normal rig cuts with. I would make 2 separate jigs if you want to do this. It's also worth being aware that the circular saw might want to tip when at 45 degrees so you'll need to pay more attention to keeping the bass on the jig to make your cuts accurate and consistent all the way along. I hope this helps and you get some good French Cleats for your project. Let me know how it goes.

@ozgamergdu 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the reply, getting a stack of ply delivered next week, got a bit of work to do lining the interior walls of my shed before I get to doing the cleats. I'll try out the normal version of the jig (I already use a smaller version for smaller cuts) first for cutting down my ply wall panels. When I get to the cleats I'll certainly give the 45 degree version of this jig a try. May be a couple weeks til I get to that stage but will let you know how it works out :)

@@MakeItWithTim So just a quick update. Got the back wall & back corners of my shed framed up, insulated and then lined with ply sheets. I plan to do the same to rest of the rest of the shed eventually, along with ceilings and a diving wall to separate a small workshop/storage area from the rest of the shed which one day in a quite distant future become a bit of a pirate tavern themed bar area. But that's a long way off in the future. For now my tools need a home so i can stop spending two weeks looking for a tool everytime i need to do a 5 minute job lol... and so the back wall is the spot. I only needed to cut down sheet of ply for the the whole wall so didn't really warrant a jig at that stage. Now tho, time to get started on the cleats. So instead of doing two separate jigs, I made one double sided jig. The 90 degree edge on one side and the 45 edge on the other side so I can just turn it around. I did my cutting on a couple of large multi-purpose foam insulation boards layed out on the ground to keep everything evenly supported. The 45 degree cut changes the size of the clearance and the distance between the blade and the edges of the foot of my circular saw so I made two separate spacer blocks, one for the 90 degree cut and one for the 45 degree cut, and made I labeled which wss which. I alternated between straight and angled cuts, use one spacer block to size up where to clamp the jig for the 45 cut, did the cut, then flipped it around and used the other spacer for a straight cut, rinse and repeat. Took a few goes to get the blade the right depth, specially for the 45 degree cut, but once I got that sorted it worked quite well. The only issue I have is when you start running out of board to cut, there's enough board for another 2 cleats but not enough board to clamp to the jig, but I'll find other uses for those off cuts. The only other thing I'll add is that cis it's being moved around a bit, the sharp edge of the 45 degree angle on the jig gets knocked around and chips off a bit here and there, but didn't seem to affect the quality of the cuts that I could notice.

@MakeItWithTim 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you for the update OZGamer. It sounds like you have been busy. I love the bar idea. Ideal to have somewhere to rest up at the end of a hard day is the shed. I completely understand the frustration of trying to find tools. Our garage is going to become my workshop but until the house is sorted that project is on hold and might take a while to get done now we have a baby girl to look after as well 😊 things take a lot longer now she is around but I wouldn't change things at all. The info about the 45 degree jig is good to know and I love the fast that you doubled up on the jig. Great thinking 😊 I hope the rest of the project goes well and I'd love to hear more when you have another update.

You can always make a larger or smaller one in the future if you need it. I hope this helps.

Also, just be careful that you circular saw doesn't tip when you are cutting (as with all 45° cuts). I hope this helps. Let me know how you get on.

I made a guide but I sort of messed up the very start of the final cut, so the zero clearance edge is a bit wobbly right at the start. Is this to be expected to some degree, as the saw's plate has not yet got full contact with the fence?

@MakeItWithTim Жыл бұрын

Hi Deaosatori216, I'm sorry to hear about the wobble cut at the start, it can be tricky. You have a couple of options. 1st is to just live with it and use the rest of the length to line up your cuts as the guide edge is still straight. 2nd is to cut the wobble off and make your guide a bit sorter. I hope that helps.
