thumbs up for using the word equidistant !!

thats actually a really amazing idea

doesn't work with end mortise.

The Samarai just learned a new move! Great idea, though you'd still have to make sure you always maintained pressure on those pins during the cut.

@@whoDatBeDare it would work just fine if you secure some boards on both sides of the piece to extend past the edge so you have the reference extend past the part.

Great idea. If you had access to a laser cutter you could make that look really awesome.

You would have to do al lot of them though and dye them different colors for different bit diameters, because concentric circles from the center of the bit doesn't tell you much if you switch from a 3/4" diameter bit to a 3/8" diameter bit. You have to measure from the outermost edge of the bit when setting your fence, so if you want a groove an inch from the edge, you have to know where an inch from the outermost part of your bit is; you wouldn't measure that from the center point. But I suppose if you own only 1/2" diameter bits or only 3/4" diameter bits, then you could make those lines based off the outer radius of the bit and then make your incremental lines and as long as you only ever used bits with the same diameter, then it'll work.Your other option if you have multiple diameter sized bits is you make a base for each of your regular sizes and put in those concentric circles like I mention in the previous paragraph. And at $10 bucks or so a pop, that's not a bad idea, if you make 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 5/8", 3/4" and 1". $60 or so bucks and they're flat so they wont take up much space when not in use.I'd like to figure out a way to use aluminium extrusion for the fences. I think the way you'd do that is using the concentric circles as a ruler and having slotted holes in case your drilled hole didn't line up perfectly with the t-bolt channel in the extrusion. Lots of possibilities though.

Yeah bit diameter, but quick maths in the ol' bean, add bit radius to desired figure and bob's ur auntie, go-to adjusted figure upon pre-scribed concentric circles

I may even be tempted to scribe every eighth inch and just eyeball the sixteenths/thirty-seconds

Cole Bouchard you missed the point. The center of the bit is the key reference point.

haha this sounds like a japanese haiku

Nate Herrington buenos días nomás

Would be close to 15in on the diagonal. 17in minus the onset of the holes to hold the fences.

It’s Samurai

Nate Herrington I just wanted to propose the same thing for a 14 inch solution, but being the measure first cut second type, watched for comments saying something similar😁

stickontheice or just use a bigger bit of perspect 😂

Great ideas! Could we see a pic.. Especially of the sides with a threaded rod

Yea love to see a photo of what Your describing !

Please share with us some pictures or a video of your jigs!!

Can you send me some pics as well, would like to make something like that

I smell what you are cooking

Phil Jean Ha ha, he gives you wood... LOL

Better than rice is those desiccant packages you get in the box when you buy shoes, clothing, etc. That being said, your tool will be fine, betcha dollars to donuts. The electronics are now hermetically sealed in these quality tools. You can literally drop the tool in a bucket of water, freeze it, break the ice off, and it still works. Damn impressive.

Throw it in the oven at 120F for a couple hours. Not hot enough to do damage, but will dry it out fast & no wasted rice...just another way to skin this cat. @HoneyOnWales

The Fein tool will be fine. It’s German.
