I almost didn’t watch this video for some reason but this is MADE for me! I am guy who hates to freehand stuff, so this really speaks to me. Especially on the bandsaw I’m very prone to go over the line by accident if I’m not super slow and this looks like it could get you really close really fast. More than the accuracy, the safety net of being prevented of going over the line is what speaks to me. ❤️👍🏻

Very nice application. Similar to the Michael Fortune bandsaw jig in Fine Woodworking #199 for cutting template curves. His “finger” was clamped to the table instead of in the miter slot.

@SuperBardley 6 ай бұрын

Nicely done video! Yes, you have make a great point: Flipping the template to the bottom of the workpiece simplifies the jig build and is obviously the stronger option. The downside is that the jig is hidden from view and following the jig will be done by memory + feel.

@billdiehl156 2 жыл бұрын

To use your words, “Holy Crap!” This was ingenious! I’ve been putting off cutting some wood with templates because it’s a pain having to use a jigsaw to get close to the line before using a flush-trim bit. Can’t wait to try this out.

Thought about your radius/strength issue, maybe you could use a screw hook off the end of a thicker strip of wood to allow you to project into tighter radii? Or if the idea of metal that close seems dangerous, the same approach with a few stacked/glued plastic washers?

Nice video of the prototyping process. I've been using very similar trimming jigs(albeit much beefier)for the best part of 10 years now,roughing out rifle stocks blanks A few things to note, this type of jig is harsh on the bandsaw blades as the radius tightens. Also if the workpiece allows you to over hang its ends with an extended template it will make a much cleaner cut as it enters and exits the work piece.

@TheCapt 2 жыл бұрын

Very cool idea and I really appreciate you sharing your thought process, including the problems. I had a thought on the tighter radius issue but it's hard to put in words, but I'll try. Make the nose a circle, like 1 inch or less but in 3 layers. First layer has a half inch beam back to the body. Layers 2 and 3 are just the circle with an 1/8 inch W by 1/4 inch D in them. Use a 1/8 inch by 1/2" tall rib that is glued into the slot in the circles and across the bridge to the body. Under this template you can do your stack method with the other templates or just take an off cut off the same size stock you are cutting with a washer on top

@reedgunsalus4727 2 жыл бұрын

Smart idea with utilizing the free space above the top surface of the top piece to add the beam for rigidity

Good idea. I am also finding my new laser to be invaluable in the workshop. So easy to make extremely accurate jigs. Though a 4" lens would probably allow you to cut the wood on the laser.

Dude, you're a freaking genius. That's why I follow you lol. Where was this at last night. I was routing some pieces for with a curve to them and the router kept kicking back cuz I had to much material I guess. But this would have helped in the bandsaw portion of the process. Ill be buying a set or two.

Love the idea. I get the thought of making it reversable for more options and the flat side for more stock cut off room. Why not combine both and every piece has a flat side and a unique guide/offset? One of the could also be just the part behind the blade, allowing for tighter curves. Obviously not foolproof as the others, but at that point but still provides a point of leverage and support as you guide. Think I will try some this weekend!

Really cool. If you put the template on the bottom you would never have to adjust it for thickness, but you wouldn’t be able to see what you were doing and it might be unstable. Just a thought I had while watching the video.

@1320crusier 2 жыл бұрын

I think the straight thin cut side could use more area for the work piece to slide against. The profile side could use smaller radii. The jig out of aluminum or steel would prob work better with a smaller radius profile side. Awesome idea and I can see how useful it could be.

@rickydegringo 2 жыл бұрын

If you flip the work piece over and only use one layer of the template you could do any overhang size and thickness of material. Assuming the template is greater or equal thickness to the jig.

In the background the table saw multi-function sled is sitting there - suggestion for a future jig video project...a mini-version of the multi-function sled adapted for the bandsaw with various thing that can attach to do cool stuff like tapers, V-block for round stuff, rip logs, crosscut, circles? arcs? Can it all be done with one sled?
