Great jig! Liked how meticulous you were, keep up the good work!

Thank you for watching my video. The woodworking community is so supportive and this project was inspired by it. ☺️

I was disappointed that you did not include a fence - at first. Now I am considering doing that as well. After all, I have many squares already. Why not use one of them? Thanks for making me think differently about this jig.

I actually wanted to try using one of the readily available fences that are available online, but I wanted to try this method that I saw a friend do. After doing it this way though, I realize that I am still pretty shite with a hand saw and need all the extra jigs that I can use to help straighten my cuts. 😂😂😂 Thank you for watching my video, and for your kind words. I am a beginner, and your words motivate me to improve even more. 😊

Just watched a few of these 'make your magnetic jig' vids, and can't help agreeing with you. The actual build is excellent, but the lack of a built-in fence makes it less useful. Of course, the ability to use it on multiple angles that can be set as needed is a positive. That said, I'm absolutely going to have a go at making a few of these - with and without fence - as they make cutting clean, square and plumb an absolute doddle in situations where using messy power tools is not an option.

Actually I prefer subtitles as I always view videos in mute. Great job.

Nice work Paulo . Though I agree a fence is better atleast for me.I made one just recently nice and square quite small.I will make some at several angles I require. need to get the magnets in.What wood was it you cut? It looks like a sapele?

Sorry for the very late reply. I am not getting any notifications from my channel for some reason. The wood I used is industrial grade mahogany--referred to here as "building lumber" or "framing lumber". Again, I am so sorry that it took me more than a year to reply to you. I have to go check on my settings.
