Wish I could buy one!! Good work.

My update: I have made the Jig and it worked superbly first time. I employed most of the design details with a few modifications. Eg. the single slot shelf support I got was deeper and had to be cut down but was fine then. The adjustment screw was easier for me as my smaller band saw table has a slot in the front scale which allowed me to position the adjusting screw in this slot which also retains the jig assembly from lifting up. The advice about setting the centre pin in relation to the blade was invaluable and as such, the first 8 inch circle I tried in a piece of 6mm MDF was exact. I am really pleased with the result.

Brilliant - one of the best circle cutting jigs I've seen. I'm going to make one to cut templates for young nursery children to draw circles on paper. The hole will enable drawing through the circle for patterns and even notches around the circumference to draw polygons etc. I like the use of inexpensive readily available parts to make it and tips on setting the pin. First class Mark.

Some commentary would be useful, personally, after research, I've come to the conclusion that whilst a metal work lathe can do wood turning, and you can even build a rest to work the wood in the traditional manner, the swing on a hobby metal work lathe is going to be quite restrictive and my ideal workshop would have both. My main interest is really in saving space but i think I'm back to considering a small metal work lathe and a midi wood turning lathe ( when I've worked out where they will go!)

What happened to Part two?🤔

My dream just came true.

Just made one of these works fine for a bit then the blade just stops .what am i doing wrong .? i can only assume i didnt get the centre right

very useful as i only have a metal lathe but also need to do wood lathe work, thanks

Excellent, I liked your fine adjustment screw for handling the different blade widths… Bob

Well done 👍

Do it yourself, visit the Woodglut website and find out how.

Quick easy access to many projects with Woodglut plans.

I bought Woodprix once and now I have lifetime access to thousands of woodworking projects.

What is the size of your large sled? Could you do an update video on the sled. Thank you for your help.

Nice to see you doing some wood working again...

Mark, I just finished making your sled for my 10” Makita table saw. Man does it make a difference. I used maple and 3/4” plywood for the fences. I really appreciate your videos and how instructional they are. From an old man in Kentucky, God bless.

Looking good! Wow quality build, I wish I have your skills.

I have that same bench vise, bought mine in 1978.

Seem like you could take the warp out of the wood with this thing!

Great, thank you very much.

Excellent video. I’m going to build this one………

very clever

instead of going thru all that why not use a t track with 1/4 -20 carriage bolt and knob and for the pin drill and tap t-track for a screw

I like the basic video but agree with those arguing that a commentary would be incredibly useful. For myself I am very familiar with the concept and there should be no restriction to styling assuming you have the correct tools and toolrest and you can cut coarse threads if you so wish. It would be useful to have a close up of the tool used though please and an explanation of the shape, angles and tool height.

OK, thats a fine video, but can you show how to make a cpoy part template please.

good day sir i must say this is the best ,simplest and cheapest jig i have seen im going to make one just like this for my band saw thanks so much for shearing

Nice bending jig setup. Great work. Thank you for sharing

Well-thought out video. I like the materials list, and really appreciate the hints on where to set the pivot point relative to the blade gullet. Two minor complaints: your plywood has twist in it, and, for newbies, NEVER pull a piece towards you after cutting it on the router table. That practise can cost you fingers.

Horses for courses comes to mind. Wood is alive. It is tactile. It speaks to you as you work it. A metalwork lathe doesn't have the ability to listen.

Hey there! Thanks for making this video; its nice to see how the sausage gets made. What would you say the minimum inside bend radius be for 0.25" Stainless? And how about 0.1875 "? Thanks!

I bought a band saw (Einhell TC- Sb 200), When I try to cut some woods. İt is problem. Sometimes in straight cuts, sometimes in circular cuts.Should the saw be tight or loose When I cut straigh or circuler cuts.. I am trying to adjust the fence part of the saw and when I squeeze, the scale breaks. How can I solve this problem. Thanks

If you want you can learn from woodprix woodworking plans how to make it yourself.

Admire your machine skills.

Thanks I’m looking forward to the ability to cut 4x8 sheets. I have recently made a couple small sleds using the technique of placing the runners in the miter tracks and then gluing and screwing them flush to the bottom of the sled. What I have noticed is that the hardwood still has a tendency to twist and become tight in the tracks. I like the idea of recessing them into dado slots to keep them straight. I made a cut off sled maybe 28 years ago based on one Norm made on the New Yankee Workshop and it used dados. I have just recently got back into woodworking so it’s back the the dado slot for me. Thanks for sharing your talents.

Looks brilliant. I wonder if I made one heavy duty enough it would cut steel on my metal cutting Startrite vertical bandsaw?

I to have admit you explained very well the important concept of having the cutting edge of the Band saw blade perpendicular to the pivot point. Thus why you have the adjustment to move that point predicated on the blade width. I have watched many videos on the subject on various ways to make a circle cutting jig. Your is the only one I have seen that address that the gullet I will say of the blade is where the center line of the blade needs to be for an accurate dimension. Thank you for taking time to creat this video.

Awesome video!!! Well explained!!!

Mice Jig Winky and well explained. Keep up the good work.

Winky, I would like to add to the comment by the gentlemen below. I would love to see you make many more videos. No b.s., very good instructional information and a quality product. I am only a part time woodworker but I have already built 2 of your sleds. I have added a little personal touch but nothing big. Keep up the excellent work. Thanks again. Jim D.

I'm impressed with this video's simple presentation. I need to make several 18" x 3/4" plywood dummy-weight discs for my son's gym (for training) and will make this jig which will be less fuss than using a router jig which I've used in the past.

Wow, I thought my 31" crosscut capacity sled was big!

I made a very similar circle cutting jig a couple of years ago. I used it for several projects and it performs flawlessly. I debated whether to make a circle cutting jig for both a router and for my tablesaw but opted to make one for my bandsaw. Glad I did. The time it takes to setup and cut is minimal compared to the other two methods. Great video and Great jig!!!

precision a voir!!!

Thanks for a brilliant video. I have learned so much in a short time. I am saving your video to view again to make my own circle cutting jig. 👍🏾

I would first like to let you know that your style of video is a refreshing one. Seems a lot of people who get more and more views seem to try and get more views by adding bells and whistles that in my opinion are not needed . So very refreshing to see you do an excellent video with great lighting, sound and clear explanation. I have made my jig simular to yours but used all wood accept for the nut and the bolt. Just finished it last night and my blade was wondering off to the outside of the circle with my big blade so I switched out blade to my finer one and still same problem BUT not as bad . Well I gave up on it it was getting late and decided to sleep on it and look on here to see if I could get some ideas . Well your info on the position of pin makes sense so will get to garage and figure it out.

Extremely detailed and clear directions [Google search>>> plus.google.com/+LarrySamford/posts/KcgzNKE47JS ]. I accept even a child could design a shed using this shed plan. It spares you lots of time while building. What's more, the cost is mind blowing. I am excited!

I've never seen a clear easy to-use manual for building a shed as this woodwork plan [Google search>>> plus.google.com/+LarrySamford/posts/KcgzNKE47JS ]. Hardly would you ever get lost while working with this woodwork plan. It is the best stuff for woodworkers and shed designers.

Excellent video! I wish that all of the woodworking videos on KZbin were as thorough as yours. I’m a woodworker, myself, but I don’t make videos...maybe some day. Thanks for the informative instruction!

Nice Job! I like your sled best.
