@Adam Malachi Yeah, that doesn't sound like a scam at all, and sounds perfectly legal too.

[@Troy-Echo]

I'm just getting back into wood working after about 30 years and there are so many new tricks and gadgets. This has become one of my two favorite wood working channels. The other is Drew Fisher - he also does excellent work, but Drew has an awesome knack for that for slipping in some really hilarious comments that are so funny it is borderline unnatural. Another thing he does is on almost every project he'll find a place to put in a flathead screw. I'm assuming someone made a not so nice comment in the past so he makes a point to use flathead screws somewhere in pretty much each video. I'm assuming that is what happened anyway. These are the only two channels I really save links to for creating jigs or working projects. Both use great precision and technique.

[@ronnieboyett5413]

Tamar... I started watching youtube a few years ago because I had an interest in woodworking, but ZERO experience or knowledge. I had retired and wanted a hobby. I watched a couple of people who showed how to videos, but they have become addictive to the money they are making and now it's more about them and their new workshops, buildings, etc. I want you to know you are a breathe of fresh air. I do not blame anyone for making money, or as much money as they can, but you are teaching your viewers what you know or don't know and make it interesting. Thank you for being here and sharing your woodworking life with us, the viewers. Please don't change.

I COMPLETELY second this notion, Ronnie! A lot of woodworkers I started watching on KZbin years ago when they were first starting out are now like, “Just put it in the CNC machine and then finish it with this $1200 tool you’ve never heard of.” I live in an apartment in Brooklyn, NY and the moment I see tools beyond the “basics” I have to hit Stop. I’ve never done that with Tamar’s videos.

[@SloverOfTeuth]

I love your show, and I'm just making this jig now. I realised one can make the jig so the two sides can be flipped, with the second set trimmed for a larger bit size. That doubles the capability of the jig for little extra work/materials.

[@lemonbar77]

The “Just a Cool Thing” is exactly that. Also, I loved the teaching moment you had where you explained how and why you cut the fences the way you did. I could hear the mental process of your kid getting it. When I was a kid, my mother did a lot of crafts on a scroll saw and took the time to show me what was going on from start to finish. To this day, 35+ years later, I blame her for my love of woodworking :-D

So I've been subscribed to your channel for a while now but I've but never been tempted to comment (in fact this is my first ever KZbin comment, genuinely!). Frankly this is inspiring. You are not just a woodworker (of the highest calibre) but you are also an amazing engineer ... "there's something I want to do better next time, so how do I solve that" [sic.]. It's awesome to literally see you think that way. It really concerns me that problem solving & having the skills to create a solution are becoming rarer & rarer in this day and age. So I'm hugely pleased to see your skills, ability, and capabilities in action. I've always thought that inspiration leads to action, so perhaps your inspiration will ensure I take action now ... whether it's as simple as leaving this comment to encourage others & support your channel in the smallest way possible, or whether it's actually creating this jig for myself (and really, I soooooo hope I'm in a position one day when I don't have to do the "day job", when can follow my passion like you, and actually need a jig like this!). You've inspired me to do something I wouldn't otherwise have done. If ever you have even the smallest moment of doubt about what you do, or whether it matters, or whether anybody cares, then bluntly ...don't. I'll share this with my kids even if they don't end up fully appreciating it right now, or until one day they understand for themselves how important these skills are. Just like I'm beginning to understand as a Dad & like mine would've hoped. Great stuff, can't thank you enough!

FANTASTIC build, all around. Great timing, as I am about to start a project requiring many dados, including some stopped dados. Your take on the jig with multiple cross 'fences', riding on T tracks is a neat twist on many of the home built jigs on YT. Two possible tweaks, that i might employ: 1. Use a hardwood edge bands (1/2 thick or so, with a shallow dado) that would couple up with a router guide bushing. The dado widths would then be virtually unlimited. Number 2: I might add a couple rows of the non-skid tape (3/4" rubber stuff used on bath tubs), to help keep the jig in place. I have followed your channel for awhile and am most impressed with the quality of workmanship delivered on projects using these more 'basic tools', such as a DeWalt job site table saw. You have proven that one doesn't need a stable of those evil German tools residing in the white systainers to deliver GREAT projects.

[@WazzupWill]

Public Service Announcement - Great Video. I made one and it works perfectly. I also have the same Router. Tamar is spot on with ensuring the orientation of the router to the jig is consistent. One other thing… If you happen to remove your router base for some reason (it needs to be removed on the Triton to install a bushing adaptor plate) be sure to reinstall it aligning the same holes in the plate with the same holes in the router itself (the symmetric holes allow for multiple orientations). If you don’t, there may be some deviation from the edge of the plate to the guide rail and thus the dado will be off. As you can probably tell, I learned this the hard way.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Oh, and one more thing... So so happy to see that the FTG blade dado-ing worked out. I was wondering the other day why it was always full-on dado stack or messy cleanup in the videos I watched, and if I was just being dumb thinking that a single FTG blade should basically be a narrow stack. Excited to know this is actually a sound option. This, by the way, is exactly the kind of thing that makes you so valuable in this community, I think: your results are thoroughly legit and unusually gorgeous, but your workshop has historically been so modest and achievable. I feel like you are doing by far the best job on the interwebz of standing up cleverness against huge investments in either tooling or ten year de facto apprenticeships in hand tool joinery. Katz-Moses and Sellers may have piqued my interest in woodworking, but you're definitely the one who inspired me to actually get started. Thanks for that.

Awesome build and genius process abilities. Love this. I am certainly going to use this in my shop. Great job as usual. When I do the video on this I am going to use you as a reference in how this is built and suggest others come to your channel to check out your build. Of course I am going to have my own version. Thanks again. Love your channel and content.

Hi from Devon in England. Thanks for sharing this. I've watched thousands of wood work videos, and found this genuinely interesting and well explained. Best wishes.

So awesome to hear! Appreciate that! Thanks!

[@dillanlaughlin]

I built this jig today. It was a lot of fun to make and I am excited to use it on several projects. I have a bookcase that I'm working on, and this jig is exactly what I needed. Thanks for sharing Tamar!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome!!!

[@MrJimboydcars]

Hey Tamar! I’ve been a subscriber for awhile but tonight bought these plans from you. I’m very impressed with the quality of these plans and at such a fair price! Many thanks!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So awesome to hear! Good luck with the build!

[@guangmin]

Wow! Tamar, I've been following you for a few months already and I am totally amazed by your creativity and the love and joy you show in everything you do. And you shine over others by your clear and precise explanations for what you do. I really appreciate your work and I have learned a lot from you. Thank you, Tamar!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So awesome to hear! Thanks!

[@kevankarr3990]

This is exactly the jig I need right now for routing shelf dados on tall and wide cabinet sides! Brilliant! Thanks!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome

[@JohnnyCashavetes]

Your jigs are consistently some of the best of its kind.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome to hear! Thanks!

[@brandtleymcminn]

Saw your post for this on Instagram a while back and finally got around to making one for myself this evening. Super happy with it and will be dadoing slots for shelves going into my girlfriend's craft room :) Thanks for the clever design! Tip: if anyone cuts the slots too deep to receive the t-track, add a washer between the t-track and the adjustable plate to avoid crushing the plate against the base which can distort your floating side.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Glad you found it useful!

[@tighecrovetti2844]

Awesome version of an adjustable perfect-fit dado guide. I swear, as soon as I figure out a good panel in my shop to store jigs, I'm going to make so many of yours!. The stop guides are awesome. You could have oversized them and attached them, and just let the router eat into them to size them like you did zero-out the edges of the main rails.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! Ha! That’s what I did for the middle inserts. And also how I wrote it in the plans 😉

[@tighecrovetti2844]

@@3x3CustomTamar I should have known you were already ahead of me!

[@markbryan9989]

Tamar, Queen of Jigs. Not sure I would get a lot of use out of this one for what I do but it is certainly well thought out. And yes, the little ones project is a cool thing! Thanks Tamar!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Haha thanks! He was so proud of it. I was too ☺️

[@bullsnbeers9635]

Hey Tamar....i am looking at dado/mortise jig for quite so time now to figure out what would work best for my goals....but this is...WOW! The BEST onr I have seen around...by far! It implements everyrhing I had in the back of my mind and i didn't even had figure out! Kudos to you andnyour amazing channel! 😉🤟👍

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So awesome to hear! Thanks!

[@bullsnbeers9635]

Can I ask you a small help? :) I want to build something like this jig to help me cut dados and especially mortise on a 45° miter edge! What do you think would be the best solution? Build the jig as you did and build something to put the miter edge horizontal...or modifying the jig to be able to cut on the surface at 45°?!? 🤔 thanks A LOT for the help in advance!

[@wiln2lrn]

Awesome work I just found your channel a week ago, and I can't stop watching it. Most of your videos I watch over and over. You really have a talent. Great job

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much!!

[@stefanmay4297]

Best and most versatile dado jig I've seen so far!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome

[@gavinclayton9552]

I just found this after watching your dovetail jig video. You’re earning yourself the title of the jig queen. This one is a great multi purpose routing jig and could easily be adapted to perform more tasks. Eg juice grooves, mortises on edge stock and alike. Well done all round.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Haha thanks!

[@georgehammond7869]

I looked at a lot of these jigs on you tube. I think you have the best one.

[@jessehickman668]

Hands down one of the most useful jigs. I’ve not seen anything like this before and had I had this when I made a larder I coulda saved 1/2 a day or more. Genuinely unique and impressive and I’m not ashamed to say I will be copying you. Also ima buy that T track kit box, looks handy. I could see coming up with a way to permanently fix clamps to it so that it’s 100% self contained but then I’m not sure how to do that practically and gracefully. Great job

[@duncanstreet4955]

Tamar yet again you’ve made an excellent jig, and shown the production process in a very simple way. Thanks for sharing your ideas.

[@JimInNM430]

You are an absolute joy to watch. You definitely know what you're doing and how to present it in a clear and concise manner. Also, your plan prices are very reasonable. Thanks for an educational and enjoyable lesson.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Glad you like it!
