GIRL POWER! Thank you, for making this simple, cut and dry! You saved me $93.00's

[@michaelschwab797]

Best jig video so far...eliminates all the excess steps and "KISS" for a down to earth jig

[@meghanchan9310]

By far the easiest circle jig I’ve seen- thank you!!

[@weppy787]

Thanks you saved me $50

[@georgebowman3051]

Great video!

[@defomatt2684]

Nice job, it’s important to note when measuring out distances on the board, you need to use the outside edge of the bit, not the exact center of the router hole. You did that, but many over see that simple step

[@joebuttas26]

O.k. I gotcha.

[@Herz_aus_holz]

Cool🤗

[@Agent-ii3dx]

So dope👌👌👌.

[@mochafit42]

Girl I have looked at a thousand videos. This is the best clearly explained & detailed video. You saved my project

[@ElysiaEnglish]

yay!! Im so happy to hear that!

[@Janealogy]

Thanks Elysia you've made it so uncomplicated. I've just bought an American Oak table top ( round) too big. I can't get any one interested in cutting it down. I'm going to try myself. Thank you

[@joanneneece9309]

So I bought a used router with a table on Marketplace. It is so big and intimidating! I watched this video and ran out to buy the palm router like yours - much better! Today I finally made the jig and just in time as I have a paint party and need 6 circles in just a few days. Thank you, thank you, thank you for making this video!

[@arche3105]

Brilliant, thank you !

[@manningoutten4494]

not just simple but 1-2-3 and its done i think thats great. others have good jigs but it takes about 1hr just to listen or make the tool. thanks

[@barbarastclair9429]

Very helpful, you explained very well how to make the jig.

[@ronralph5726]

Awesome!!! Waaaay cheaper than spending $50 on a jig!!!

[@marlonemelo123]

Great video. Thanks for share.

[@kirkgreenman1386]

Elysia, That was Great. I am cutting a speaker hole, now I can make a perfect circle.

[@williamtomblin8645]

Nice jig the easiest I've seen , Great job,thank you.

[@BertDebreuil]

Hi Elysia. I have recently taken up working with a wood lathe and needed a jig for my router so that I could cut a circle in order to make a sanding wheel for the lathe. I found your video and was able to quickly and easily make the jig. It worked perfectly. Thank you so very much for posting your video. Great work!

[@rodneyharris8739]

Thank you very much. Straight forward and to the point. Great explanation. You helped me figure out how I'm gonna build mine. Thank you again.

[@droper683]

Thank you so much very easy to do and straight forward Thanks

[@jttaylor5236]

[@maryjocookson7156]

great video, thanks so much.

[@roxyloyst725]

Really enjoyed this video. Will try and make this one for sure

[@deborahrizzo5016]

I am thrilled to find your KZbins. I have been wishing to continue learning to use my routers. A couple decades ago I started using them but got distracted and am now going back through all my books. But your teaching method is fantastic. I got more out of watching two of your productions than an hour of studying books with pictures. Thank you I will keep watching.

[@patrickkatkaew9843]

i like it thank you for great video i will make one like your Have a good day

[@hernanrpaul]

super easy ! thanks! ;)

[@kennethlemke9826]

Excellent

[@jachconi]

At 46 years old I got bit by the woodworking bug. I took down my golf simulator in my garage and started buying tools. This video was AMAZING!! I literally just made my first circle. Lol. Thank you so much. I’ll now stalk your channel for other gems. Maybe even make my bride something special!!

[@inspiringbuilds]

Congrats, woodworking is awesome. I'm the same and started my channel at a slightly older age and have several easy to follow inspiring builds. Good luck!

[@mechellebyrd1539]

FREAKING AWESOME!!! Thank you!!! Just stopped mid way to say Thanks!!

[@mechellebyrd1539]

The other thing that got me worried was how you said “router” we don’t say it that way in NC!!!😂😂😂

[@tiarashaboykin9148]

I love this you answered every question I had and really made me feel like I can make this

[@TheGentlemensMotorRacingTeam]

Fantastic thank you

[@richie1027]

Brilliant! I needed a round 20” board to make a balance board for physical therapy on my ankle. My prior attempts were never round. This will work great! You are so talented young lady and thank you so much.

[@QueenSheba777]

Genius...Canadian!!!

[@BigAgitator]

Nicely done!

[@lf-xp3et]

its essy and very good method thanks alot

[@inspiringbuilds]

Agreed, must have for making larger circles! You can even make it bigger for large custom tables.

[@stephaniemurray8861]

This was super helpful. I'm having trouble finding wood circles to make signs so I'm going to start cutting my own with your method. Thank you!

[@MultiDonna26]

Thanks Elysia!

[@paulyarele5971]

This is awesome. This will be handy for my DIY speakers spacers..

[@rosedouglas9586]

I love the beachy coastal look! It's beautiful! I am a California girl all my life. The beach is my favorite place on the planet.

Thank you so much for sharing this!!!! I have seen people use their jigs with a router but I haven’t seen a tutorial on how to make that jig!

[@slwjenks]

Awesome great job Elyshia!

[@manofpower]

Good tutorial...your voice is so sweet...I liked this video...

[@christinahulse1722]

You are so clever! Great idea!

[@fakeitormakeit83]

Excellent video! This was one of the simplest straight forward videos ive seen on the subject!

[@patsykillingsworth9549]

That was so cool! You are aweaome!

[@jernejat4042]

Brilliant idea 🤗

[@PamelaBrandonChromeFoto]

I would attach a small handle or knob on the end to assist in turning the jig, it turned out perfectly, thanks for sharing.

[@brendashaw7388]

Genius!

[@AngieWilliamsDesigns]

Great jig.

[@rainyco.3747]

Love this! I’m going to make one of these today!

[@NeysRusticScriptDecor]

Hi there from Ohio USA!!! Your channel is totally awesome. Thanks for all the tips and tricks. Thanks for encouraging all us wood working woman!!!! Keep up the great job!!!

[@ElysiaEnglish]

Thank so much Net DM!! I really appreciate the support! ❤️

[@kimberlydavis2265]

Love this, and want to try it with my router! That herringbone round is drool-worthy...

[@ElysiaEnglish]

Next video is a tutorial on how to make your own!

[@jessicavelasquez4040]

This was so helpful and easy to understand! I feel confident I can make one now!

[@Broadmaynewood]

Top job ...

[@felixgarciarodriguez3089]

Thank you. Great video.

[@kchristian3824]

Awesome. I like the ease of this. I have a one-time project where I'll need to circles of 4 different sizes. This the jig I'll be making. Thanks

[@sarahernandez8766]

‼️❤️❤️❤️ love it❤️❤️❤️‼️

[@LordPadriac]

Nice and simple with no extra hardware to buy for "features" no one is ever going to use. I would suggest one addition that only requires drilling extra holes. If pick a bushing that you will always use with the jig you can make a second set of holes measured from the other side of the bit and add the offset of the bushing to create a pattern. If you put a hole for instance between the five and six inch mark (whatever the actual measurements turned out to be) you would get a circle bigger than ten inches but we're not interested in the circle in this case. The hole you just made with the alternate measurement will now make perfectly sized ten inch holes if you put the bushing on the router and run it along the inside of the circle. You'll get your ten inch circle except this time it won't have a hole in the middle. The kind of decorations you showed at the end of the video the hole won't matter but say you wanted to make a lid for a round box or something you don't want a hole in the middle of.

[@MissionaryForMexico]

Perfect job and well done!

[@melissabarron1574]

Great idea! Guess what I’m making 🐝

[@mscupcakedreamson36]

Wow!!!

[@freeofusmartinez5199]

you make things look easy you are an inspiration. and inspired me to believe that i can do this thank you love your videos

[@inspiringbuilds]

You got this, I enjoy inspiring others to build with my videos as well. Good luck!

[@jeancossigny6411]

I like your video, easy to follow thank you.

[@hrlembarnett]

Wow. That was very good. You do a great job explaining the details. Nice job!

[@checkm8852]

I freaking love you!!!!!!!! Ive been trying to come up with this solution.

[@inspiringbuilds]

Awesome solution for sure. Another tip is putting a hook on the ceiling and hanging your cord on it. It's also super awesome to use upside down clamping or securing it down and then you can turn the wood instead of your router so you don't have to worry about the cord. Good luck on your builds.

[@angelacole2713]

Thank you for Such a simple tutorial that doesnt require buying hardware or gluing anything to the router. Excellent job! I love your wood working videos ❤
