How To Make a Circle Cutting Jig for a Band Saw

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Very nice, simple and useful jig!

[@rayaldridge2506]

Hi Vinnie, Thank you for the video. I really like the simplicity of this jig. I have the same Craftsman 10 inch band saw as yours, so as a newbie woodworker, I've been following all of your band saw projects and I really enjoy them. So please keep them coming 🙏. Thanks again.

Only now i saw this awesome circle cutting jig video. About two weeks ago I made myself a circle cutting jig following the instructions of another video. Basically those videos are the same. But yours has some clever "extras". Thanks for sharing.

[@DerekCadmus]

Excellent build. Love the outtakes too

[@Makify1]

+Derek Cadmus Thanks Derek!

[@AlWheelin]

Thanks for the vid, nice and simple and almost fun to build, not complicated at all.

[@chrislohtt1960]

Love your bloopers. Also like your jig

[@Makify1]

+Christopher Loh Thanks! I'm never quite sure how well people will like the bloopers. Good to know you liked them.

[@L30ne]

+Makify1 i very much enjoy the bloopers too :D

[@user11000]

That contruction is very clever. Thaks again.

[@Makify1]

Thanks!

[@hallenw]

Best design yet!

[@hercules7548]

Πολύ εύκολη και κατανοητή κατασκευή, μπράβο σου !!!!!

[@Evil_Clown_3DIY]

hey, nice work ! and a small tipp for this jig : you should screw the stop-block under the plate in front of the saw instead clamping it behind it, then u have always the same distance without measuring it !! (hope u understand what i mean) sry about my bad english, im from Germany. Greetings !!

[@Makify1]

That is a good idea!

[@Makify1]

That's a great idea!

[@Cactusworkshopchannel]

Very interesting!! that technique is quite clever! thanks for this! I will use it when I get to make my slide! thanks!!

[@Makify1]

+Cactus! workshop Glad you like it! :)

[@arthurmake-things1830]

made same jig but used a push pin instead, it fits nicely into 5/16 hole after light sending. push pins are cheap and easy to replace

[@JoshMillarTheWoodMillar]

I really like your idea for the tack glides! The only thing is I see the stop block being a problem when you start to make bigger circles because it is thicker then the plywood top of the jig. I recommend putting a stop block on the under side of the plywood that hangs of the bed closet to you. hope I could be of some help and keep up the great work!

[@Makify1]

+Josh Millar That's a good point. I thought about a stop block on the front of the jig but eventually decided that a stop block clamped to the back of the table would be easier/better for me. A stop block on the front of the jig might be better for someone else though.

[@JoshMillarTheWoodMillar]

Makify1 that's very true! If your not making anything bigger then a couple inches your way works great too!

[@dupriest2260]

Very useful and cool

[@robertjames-life4768]

Clever way to adapt to what you have to work with. Thanks

[@quinnleffingwell6628]

Looks good! Good design!

[@Makify1]

+Quinn Leffingwell Thanks Quinn!

[@myronlubman8714]

Very similar to the one that I use but much more simple.I would only change your stop blpck to the underside of the jig in front so you always have an auto stop in place. Sometimes we older shop hounds over think our projects. I don't really need large circles. I only need small circles. Thanks .

[@propnose]

That's brilliant. Now all I need is a band saw! :-P

[@ramatosan8784]

Thank you .

[@BruceAUlrich]

Nicely done.

[@Makify1]

+Bruce A. Ulrich Thanks Bruce!

[@DONphantasmo]

[@rhshel]

[@kimo5466]

Pretty good idea!

[@sahibbhullar9838]

Good made bro 👍👍👍👍👍👍 for you

[@shunamitoryan6285]

I am sorry. You can only give one thumb up. I would give this video a thumb up up up for almost every step!!! Good thinking. Good planning. Goooood operating. A plus plus.

[@WatchMeDIYIt]

Nice jig, man!

[@Makify1]

+DIY giveaways & tutorials Thanks!

[@gooddoogs]

Nice one!

[@FeralBoyKnives]

Great idea!

[@vincentbouchard8205]

definetely maing this one!

[@RetroAdventure]

Wow, ingenious!

[@jostevens5087]

love this

[@robertjones5379]

That's perfect.

[@theaidenous]

I made this but having a slight issue. Every circle has a slight flat edge which has to be at the starting point. Do you know what I'm doing wrong?

[@Makify1]

Greg Jones Is the leading edge of the blade perfectly aligned with the center of the circle when you cut?

[@Nobby2512]

bang 2 bud. top marks

[@graziani4]

Doesn't get any easier then this. Building now for use tomorrow morning

[@peternadado7598]

nice

[@anthonynguyen7244]

cool

[@carl53301]

Why does he have to force the plywood to get ths bandsaw to cut.

[@spendtimesavemoneydiy]

Good video, bad jig

[@hansdegroot8549]

Bad comment

[@Manuel_Z_Kayaks]

USE A WIDE BLADE WITH FINE TEETH... I went through (BROKE) 4 blades cutting 8 circles of plywood 92 more to go. I did this before I figured out the wider fine tooth blade was the best choice. And I only used the fine tooth blade because it was my last choice. I cut 42 circles with the fine blade till I ran out of wood.

[@keyurparmar6653]

I strongly suggest you google Hyezmar's Woodworking book (no cost), if you're experienced. He's got an alternative for newbies as well.

I Can Do It Quicker With A Holesaw.
