watched this video several times as well. you remind me of my math teacher back in high school , never did like math but the way he taught made you listen , learn and remember . thank you

Amazing idea!!! Experience speaks for itself... Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

I really enjoy watching your expertise in woodworking. I have spent too many years involved in my career (which is totally devoid of this skill set) and so I appreciate someone like yourself willing to share your experience! Thanks again.

You are exceptional at explaining ideas clearly and concisely. I'm always impressed by that.

I hope you do make a whole series about frame and panel construction, as it's something I've only just begun to realise is so important to the craft. Would be cool to see a lecture on it's historical development, significance and uses.

Thanks Stumpy for all the information!

Thank you, your show is at the top of my list! keep em coming.

This is one of your best helpful ideas. You can bet I'm going to try this - I've been going NUTS looking for a bit with shallow enough cut height to do raised panels on 1/2" stock, and this seems like it could work! THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I always just assumed that raised panels were purely aesthetic! I would love to see you do a video on the history and structural aspects of the different types of joinery/carpentry. Not that I'm too lazy to research it myself, it's just that I never would have even thought of it! Thanks James & crew!

That’s an excellent jig and technique. It’s one I’ll have to file away for an upcoming project that incorporates raised panels.

Watching this makes me so happy that I converted to using metric

Yet another great tutorial video. Thanks. The big looks amazing and simple to use.

great video. No nonsense, clear instructions.

Excellent timing I need to make a bunch of new doors soon. These plans will help a lot.

: Best, clearest instructions on this that I've seen. Very way, sir. Gracias.

Like allways, a excelent job. A big hello from Argentina.

Wow- first time here. Excellent explanation and you have given me the confidence to try it.

This is just what I'm looking for! I'm interested in making some panels for the sides of some card catalogs, and this is the method I'll try. Thanks!

Thank you, I learned something new.

Really cool James! I saw something like this in a ancient Pop mechanics magazine I think but this was super clear and detailed!

matched an existing door with this method...tyvm!!!!

Thank you James! Have you done a video on making raised panel doors on a router? I've seen a couple from other guys but I love how detailed and well thought out your explanations are!

great little idea. I'd have shied away from raised panel doors completely but this has inspired me. Never considered this type of jig, probably because you intuitively imagine that the bit height will be effected by the thickness of the jig. Cheers James.

Great solution sir. I will keep this method in mind. Many thanks

Awesome teaching and incredible gig.

that is very cool GOOD JOB and thanks for sharing the video

Good jig and tips. Thanks for sharing !

Your channel is awesome. Thanks for all the info. You're killin it

Great idea, I've used a table saw before but never thought of that. All you got have is the right angle

You are the jig king! Love your videos, new subscriber and about to begin my journey woodworking after a career in engineering. Look forward to many more videos!

I've already bought the Freud 3 piece adjustable set for making rails, stiles, and raised panels. Wished I would have seen video 2 years ago before I paid $188 for that set. However I am very pleased with that set.

Great job , and appreciate the blueprints , w measurements for the video

Thanks James. Yer quite the jig maker.

You would make a great shop teacher.

Love it. Just over my skill level.

Great idea Stumpy. Yours is one of my favorite You Tube Channels, along with Steve Ramsey.

I love this channel.

Another great Idea, dont know how You came up with it but its genius. I like your how to video's more than the talking video's, it teaches alot. Nice build man, your my no1 channel. Happy eastern. Danny from Holland

Great tip and jig!

Thanks James!

Nice looking jig James. Cheers, Huw

Very Nice! Thank You!

Nice idea and great information.

Love this channel

Another great jig design. Do you have a building dedicated to their storage because it seems like you have a jig for everything?

That's amazing jig and idea. Much better than wide-spread and very unsafe way engaging table saw and perpendicular motions

Nice job

Nice I used a table saw set up to cut my panels before, but these are actually a lot easier and IMO better looking. Thanks for the cool videos. I would like to see a workbench with a built-in movable pocket-hole jig. Would like to see ur input on that.

Very cool stuff.

great jig!

Really cool!!!

That's a great idea, thanks for sharing it. :-)

You sir are a god

Grea work!

Ha, awesome, I was just sitting here trying to figure out exactly that! Thanks eh

NYC job sir!

One thing I learned over the years was the ENORMOUS improvement in the quality of my work (due to more precise parts) as well as the simplicity of measuring everything in millimeters. More Americans should try it. Give it a serious try, and you will never go back to poles, inches, cubits, etc.

I dig it.

thank you sir ji

lol Stumpy was just not expecting a reply lol thanks like your videos my man

Nice.

Maybe a video about when and where to use specific type of joints?

Thanks for an excellent explanation, cheap to buy plans and cheap to build jig. I traveled to a couple of links and clicked "thumbs up" to crush a troll.

I really like that router bit height gauge...

Nice video stumpy! How would you compare build time/skill level needed to make this jig compared to the raised panel jig norm abrams makes and uses on the new yankee workshop jigs episode 1or2 . That one all you need is a table saw

Nice solution. I had to create my own panel pattern for last project. This would be much easier?

Thank you for the video, I’m thinking about making panels like this for a Wainscoting job I am doing is it safe to use plywood for the panels as opposed to solid wood?

Cool old-school who need a cnc

Master tradesman

Jig plans : 404 not found. Nice work.

Very nice. One specific measurement that I'm not clear about is where exactly to set the second pass on the bevel cut so that it is repeatable. Is there a way to know that and write it down on the back of the jig too?

Great video. Can this be done with a hand held router?

Another sweet video. Any chance of you sharing the name of the router table used?

Cool!, thanks for the info! subbed!

Setting a tool height like you shown, you can also use a piece of paper as a feeler gauge and it will bring you in about .003 (1/300) of an inch from hitting unwanted cutting edges and use as a starting point on deepness. Depending on fixture and setup, you may have to adjust accordingly as you have stated if needed. You still may see some touches due to imperfections of wood but in a machine shop, It is a very common way on how we touch off our tools. There are other methods but irrelevant for this type of wood working. Using paper can be used on a flat edges, holes, outer circles etc. Quick and easy to find your reference point on a drill, saw blades, router bits, mills, turning tools and so on. Touch off on the cut area if possible so if you accidentally leave a tool mark, it will be cut off. If you haven't tried this method, give it a try and let us know what you think. This comment is not by any means to challenge nor to change anything in this video. It is just an added note on a method I found that works for me. I feel as a novice (referring to myself) you did a great job. I am a industrial and small shop machinist and what you do and I do have a lot in common. This video is something I have been looking for for quit some time. Thanks

Wow to much tools love it but i dont have !!!

what software are you using to draw out your plans you use in the video?

what size router should i buy to make raised panels kitchen cabinets? patty drake

Very nice. Looks like you could benefit from a PowerLift Pro router lift with foot pedal or touch screen adjustments!

I just think you are so nice.

I use my table saw for raised pannels

Watching this in Europe and those measurements were comedy gold - using the conversion table I can see that is 0.59685737475 inches! haha! That said, when using larger measurements something like 43" is always easier than 1092mm

can u tell me which kind wood u used to make the raised panel? is it plywood or hardwood

I''m late to the game here but better late than never. Good video! What is the make/model of your router plate? EDIT: Oops. Never mind, I can make out "Pro Lift" and see the Rockler Blue on the insert.

what's always in the can?

Great video - I would like the jig plans but got a 404 page not found error. Chris

If I want to use 1 3/8" stock for an interior door with raised panels on both sides, it seems this jig will leave a center tongue of 1/4" (if I'm doing my maths correctly). Is 1/4" strong enough for a 30" x 80" door with cross and bible panel design (largest panel 10" x 25")? If not, do you know how the jig could be modified to leave a thicker center tongue?

Any idea for curved panels

Hey Jim thanks for the videos. Any suggestions on a reasonable price for hand saws that are not junk?

I´Love Detrioit red wing´s

the way your jig work it look like to be possible to use it on the table saw with dado blade

Whats the jig that you have on your router table which digitally measures the bit height? verry good!

Bro quick question how or what are the ways to prepair a plywood edge w/o using edge banding or putting hard wood to cover edge cause i want to make a cabinet using only plywood and i dont know other ways to cover the door edge frame in preparation for painting.thanks

James, awesome as usual. Hey, what is that little translation chart you are using for your calipers? Would love to get a copy, given I sometimes screw up when going back and forth between decimals and fractions. Thanks!

where can I get dimensions for the jig?.

Stumpy, the ISOTunes ear buds are certified by NIOSH, not EPA.

I`ve done similar but looks like your jig would be easier

I have always used a similar technique. I attach a bar parallel to the edge guide. The height and distance is calculated to give me the proper angle. Years ago won tip of the month in a magazine

Which iGaging calipers are those?

What's your measurements on the jig
