How to make Kumiko jigs

[@bobarmstrong1657]

What is the purpose of the third brass insert at the front of the jig?

[@JTWoodworks]

Bob Armstrong I added that in there in case I need to use the back of the jig to square up a piece since the back of the jigs are cut at 90 degrees. I don't know if I'll ever use it but I added it just in case

[@markzambelli]

@@JTWoodworks With all due respect to you, sir, I think you only needed a single brass screw in the centre... love your vid btw, nice approach.

[@billallmon4094]

Vidio grate back ground music bothersome

[@felipeandrusco6478]

I sometimes use the 90 as a mini shooting board, kudos!

[@StudioJLT]

Love that I can just watch this without having voiceover and still know exactly what to do. Well made project and video!

[@JTWoodworks]

StudioJLT I'm glad you enjoyed it 👍

[@mauroplatania236]

Compliment for tutorial and project 👍👍👍

[@JTWoodworks]

Glad you like it!! I have more kumiko videos and tutorials if you're interested

You show 3 jigs. One is 30, one 60, what is the other one? Is that the 67.5?

[@JTWoodworks]

They are 22.5, 45, and 67.5. These are the three angles needed for the square asanoha pattern

[@OSODIY]

Very cool JT, great precision

[@JTWoodworks]

OSO DIY thanks Oso!!

[@raider6511]

Question: Why not put a 45 at one end and a 67.5 at the other. Then a 22.5 at one end on another one with a 30 at the other end and so on. That way you will have all the ones you will need with it's own separate sliding bar also.

[@JTWoodworks]

There are many different ways to make these and they'll all work. This is my preferred method and since releasing this video, I've slightly upgraded the design.

[@CMRWoodworks]

Nice man! I was going to make my own guides like this, but then decided to just buy them already made 😅.

[@JTWoodworks]

With the accuracy needed on these, sometimes that's the best way to go

[@scorchbox2941]

Dope work man! And great song choice too!

[@JTWoodworks]

Thanks 😀

[@JoseAbrilMartin]

Hi, could you tell me how many are the degrees of the three templates.

[@JTWoodworks]

The three angles are 22.5, 45, and 67.5

[@FigmentsMade]

This is very neat! 👍

[@JTWoodworks]

Figments Made thank you! I plan on making a video on using them and making kumiko

[@FigmentsMade]

JT Woodworks Great!

[@konzam3]

thank you for that

[@JTWoodworks]

konzam3 glad I can help!!

[@mountaincarver3598]

Nice work. Could you please post where to purchase the brass hardware?

[@JTWoodworks]

Thanks! Just added the links in the description

[@bigdteakettle8989]

I wish the ones he made for me had the full height he started with. Mine are so short there is not enough bearing surface to run more than a 1/2 inch chisel to cut the joints. He just used the knurled thumb screw with a flimsy brass washer that would bend and not lock the stop in place. Replacing the brass washer with a steel one fixed that. The angles were also a bit off but a little time with a plane fixed that. Comparing his jigs to the other I have seen and observed I would rate this type of jig a C-.

[@glencrandall7051]

The video appears a very straight forward method to produce the angle jigs. Contrary to a couple of other comments I find the music(?) extremely annoying. I also would very much like some commentary to explain your procedure as the video progresses. You don't have to get carried away with explanation but a little bit would be nice. I know I can mute the music but muting would not help if there were some commentary. I also know this is an old video and these comments won't help here but maybe they are suggestions for your future productions.

[@jasonrobinson9524]

I'm always amazed at how many people offer quasi negative comments about how videos were not specifically tailored to their own individual tastes. It's a free video for you that he spent his own time to make - watch it, take what you can from it, and say "thank you".

[@robertpelland5649]

What's with the offensive music, why not let us hear soothing woodworking sounds ?

[@teacher_of_the_arcane5399]

Turn the volume of your music down by at least half !!!

[@85ctorres]

Oh hey cool a how - to video that shows nothing on how to do it

[@JTWoodworks]

Oh cool someone that complains rather than offers constructive suggestions

[@plux3740]

@@JTWoodworks Welcome to the internet. Anyway, great video. Thanks for your work on these.

[@jasonrobinson9524]

If you needed more than the video offered, you weren't really ready to make kumiko or kumiko jigs anyways.

rofl.. he literally showed every single step
