Your guide is the most simplest, practical DIY guide. I like the clamp idea.

[@KingsFineWoodworking]

Just in time Patrick! I am so tired of cutting plywood on my Lathe! Awesome video! Hilarious and very creative. And a good build to boot.

[@Patricksworkshop]

thanks James Appreciate you watching and I'm glad you liked it

[@kdfleming2]

Thank you so much for your track guide living up to the title of your video and for giving clear, easy to follow instructions. I’m a complete beginner and this is exactly what I needed for 2 projects that I was dreading because my cuts never turn out totally straight.

[@markgershman1563]

One of the best guides I've seen on Utube! Very simple! I'm glad I saw this video before I made something else. Thanks Patrick!! Mark

[@jasonbailey9139]

Never seen any of those other channels before, so thanks to them for helping you out and thanks to you for giving them the exposure. I’ll check them out.

[@Patricksworkshop]

thanks Jason glad to help out other channels get some air time thanks for watching

[@avega2792]

I like that the clamps are underneath. Looks like a great build without having to mess with the saw its self.

[@Angelogilo001]

I love your infomercial style video! You got skills and a good sense of humor!

[@adamshandyhands2346]

Love the tip and saw guide, it will save me spending hundreds on a circular saw and guide.

[@dvader3000]

Thats a very inexpensive,yet very efficient cutting guide. Great job sir.

[@kookyflukes9749]

Comedic fun and useful too. Thanks Patrick. The best ideas are always so simple. It just needs somebody to tell us mere mortals. Thanks again.

[@Patricksworkshop]

thanks, I almost didn't make the video till I had the idea for the intro with all the guy's thanks for watching

[@giseliapereira5914]

Awesome! Really nice of you to list all these wood workers, I’ll be sure to check them all out.

[@christineribone9351]

😂😂😂😂 I was just out in my yard doing that same tango tangle with a tape measure.

[@marcusharding4272]

Patrick, We need more of your videos!!! Please post more.

[@BeCuzISaid]

I just built mine with the parts/tools you used. I love it!! I works so good, no more clamps in the way

[@onetruebob_tj]

Great project. Thanks for sharing your knowledge

[@danthemakerman]

Fun and informative. The addition of the dovetail clamp was genius!

[@Patricksworkshop]

thanks, Dan the Maker Man

[@maxcarter3413]

Great video! Instructive, easy to follow, entertaining, no crappy music. Awesome 👍

[@Patricksworkshop]

A great jig Patrick and some brilliant channels to subscribe to. Thank you :) ॐ

[@Patricksworkshop]

Thanks so much for watching

[@Krazy_KZs_Garage]

Awesome vid. Thanks for sharing the tip and for the guys’ introductions at the end.

[@pershop4950]

Thanks . I was trying to make a DIY lathe with a drill but now I think I can just the wood using this jig. Much easier.

[@johnyb9884]

I’m envious of your talent and skill.

[@zstephen1]

Thank goodness we watched this video on how to make a circular saw blade which you built using your table saw. If only I had a table saw to make this jig I wouldn't need the jig to begin with! haha :P

[@ibryansukada9607]

Now we call it table saw paradox🤣

[@andylopez6786]

So many diy tracksaw ideas, this is one I haven't seen but probably the best except for the clamps you use because those are very expensive where I live.

[@DaveGatton]

You're best video ever Patrick. Great job guys!!

[@Patricksworkshop]

I don't think so Tim I mean DaveHa ha

[@billk8579]

Great video. Useful project and great links. Thanks Patrick and all contributors.

[@maneekaewthuam7288]

Thanks for the your help this is perfect for me to be able to use my circular saw 🇹🇭

[@Dr.Meola1980]

I make these things all the time when I'm framing houses. Not as fancy as the one that you make though 😊 I can tell you a little trick how we make them on the job site really fast. We use whatever's lying around for stock. First you can take a piece of strapping or rip a 2-in x 8 ft long piece of three quarter to half inch plywood. You screw that cleat that's made out of either strapping or plywood about 8 inches deep on an 8-ft sheet of plywood. Then to make it really fast. All you do is take your circular saw deck put it against the cleat then run it the 8-ft length that would give you your exact cut. Then run the saw on the other side of the cleat to separate your track from the sheet of plywood. Then if you want to get real fancy with it. You flip it bottom side up. Then stick some rubberized ice and water or rolled roofing to the bottom. That way when you place it on the material you are cutting. The ice and water or rubber roofing will hold it in place.

[@davidtom6120]

BLESS YOU .........YOU ARE THE MAN.......I AM THAMIR MURAD FROM IRAQ.

[@guyh.4553]

2 things, you can add a cleat/ foot at the push end to guarantee that its up tightly against the cut piece. And 2, leave an extra amount on the spare wood to make a long straight edge for a router guide. Works great

[@ronnagar]

Excellent tips and demonstration. Thanks

[@hartonoX69]

Greatest projects

First time viewer, subscribed before I even got to the build! Now to go watch every video you have. So much for sleeping tonight, lol. 👍🏾🇺🇬🇺🇸

wow man thanks so much and welcome to my channel glad to have ya on the team I suppose you can sleep another time lol 👍

[@mikevanwieringen9883]

Wow, excellent tutorial....Especially the clamps underneath the guide are very clever..Thanks for posting

[@Patricksworkshop]

thanks, Mike. I'm glad you liked it

[@pedroreyes4399]

great stuff i will be watching a lot patrick is awesome..

[@sapelesteve]

Nicely done Patrick! I can see where that edgeguide would come in handy for sure. BTW, you have a new subscriber!

[@georgekane1985]

Good video. I will be modifying my jig with the dovetail clamps that you've used. I have a suggestion: if you make your guide board parallel on your table saw and apply it to a wider sacrificial piece, you can use the other side for a router guide (very good if you want to joint wood or make dados).

[@millspaugh2000]

Great video Patrick keep up the good work you videos are excellent!

[@Patricksworkshop]

thanks Jon Ill keep working hard on them lots more to come

[@HarnealMedia]

This was great Patrick. Well made video and jig

[@Patricksworkshop]

Thanks so much

[@steveshelton2322]

Wow, I just cut 4 pieces of plywood today, and they look like crap I Used a clamped straight edge and it shifted at the end and I cried! I need this guide because I can't seem to make straight cuts with my skill saw, ever! Thanks for sharing.

[@ESCAGEDOWOODWORKING]

Wow! I love how you took us through the process of building the jig. The filming and editing of it was clear and easy to follow. Dude, you did a bang up job. Thanks for including me in the skit. It was hilarious to watch all these cats up on here. I'm always impressed with your finished work.

[@Patricksworkshop]

Thanks so much Eloy for the kind words brother

[@bjem2287]

The main suggestion for modification I'd make would be to use the other side for the "narrow gap" side of the blade and shoe. That's what I did and it works really well.

[@alexsafonov7270]

Thank you for the helpful explanation :) St. Patrick's Day is coming up in a couple weeks and I will keep you in mind.

[@scottm.franklinnc7942]

will be making the saw guide 👍

[@carlosmercado376]

Muchísimas gracias por compartir su tiempo y su vídeo, muestra lo frustrante que puede ser trabajar en el garaje, sin tanto aspaviento, dos excelentes jigs el del router y el de la sierra circular, gracias.

[@peterbarlow8912]

I find with this type of saw guide you have to periodically move the fence back to get a fresh edge. Blade flutter and ham handedness will wear the edge back so the saw cuts proud of the edge. That messes up layout because the edge is no longer where it cuts. I start with a wider strip of thin plywood so I can clamp beyond the fence enough so the saw motor doesn’t run into them and I have plenty of material to move the fence back for a fresh edge. Mine have an aluminum fence over luan underlayment. Small flat head machine bolts up through the bottom with fender washers and wing nuts on top. Small screws held by a magnet to one washer sometimes serve instead of clamps to the back of finish work. Having the fence longer at the front end helps register the saw shoe to the fence before it enters the workpiece or chews up the leading edge of the guides base plywood.

[@mamabearssheshedtracykeato6941]

What a fantastic build! I will check out the router build also! I'm glad I came to see you. I just subscribed!

Hi from the land of your Founding Fathers ( The Once Great British Empire ;-). Excellent video and very well put together. Its 6 hours until 2019 so I will watch a few more of your videos and check out the other guys offerings too. So Happy 2019 to you and thanks for the great efforts. Duncan

shared with my gradma. she dug it.

Awesome!!!

[@tmhirsch65]

Just found your channel, Patrick. Awesome! I've seen other saw guides like this, but not with the dovetail clamps. That makes it so much more useful. Gotta get a couple of those! Are you noticing any problems with sawdust effecting the guide? Is it worth the extra effort to chamfer the bottom of the fence face? Thanks again for videos. Gonna make this and the router edge guide soon.

[@jonmcmanus3998]

Nice video mate!!!

[@oxintheshop]

Really like the video Patrick. And that Javi!!! Lol funny guy. Also that is a great tip using the 1/4 bit first then the dovetail bit. Good tip to know.

Thanks for helping out in the video buddy

Nice job! I liked your video

[@steveray8186]

Patrick, I’m intrigued with the saw guide. I like the clamp system. After using it on a large project. Would you make it with the same materials? Would you make any improvements?

[@racinmason5349]

Love the intro

[@Patricksworkshop]

thank you brother

[@williamoloughlin8298]

impressed with the smooth cuts on ply with a framing blade instead of a fine finish blade, nice. nice track guide, are the clamps strong enough for bevel cuts without moving the guide?

[@nobuckle40]

That is one great outfeed table. Whatever works. Right?

[@danewert2306]

How long do you think the thin MDF will hold up bouncing around the shop or work site???

[@MarkLindsayCNC]

Excellent video, Patrick! Now I need to go grab a couple of those clamps and make me one of those jigs.

[@Patricksworkshop]

Thanks for helping out the video Mark There is a link in the description for the clamps check it out

Nice. Once I've bought a router, table saw, new house to fit the table saw and the two clamps, I might be able to make it. Hurrah!

@@SterlingsWoodcrafts he's got a point though. Most "diy easy projects" require tremendous amounts of tools and machines. "Make this easy projects, all you need is a complete equipped workshop. Everybody can do it!"

[@1weirddoe571]

My circular saw seems to have play and the blade moves in and out on its shaft . is this going to be a problem? Is there anything I can do to stop that play by taking apart the saw?
