[@aldunlop4957]

There are very few woodworking content creators on KZbin who's videos (and projects) stand the test of time. Jon, you fit into this category with ease. Thanks for the inspiration and for sharing your experiences with us all.

@@aldunlop4957 thank you! I really appreciate it

[@LonghornWorkshop]

The best way making your own jigs, this one is simple and effective.

[@sapelesteve]

Nice done Jon! That washer placed at the end of the jig is a great tip! Thanks! 👍👍

[@shaynesabala]

Good luck in your new shop, can't wait to see the build out. I'm slowly building a shop in my two car garage and as soon as I'm finished with the wiring and sheet rock the fun begins.

Solid, no-nonsense wisdom! Many thanks Jon and Happy New Year from Sydney, Australia. Off now to build my daughter a built-in wardrobe, with her working alongside me! Cheers, Dave

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks Dave! … nice! Enjoy the project with your daughter and Happy New Year!

[@Michael-Makes-Stuff]

That’s genius, Jon! Cheap, accurate, easy to make, and easy to use. Thanks for sharing! 👍🏼

[@SuperCC112]

Hands down, one of the best jigs and jig videos on KZbin. Thank you!

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks!

Jon -- I really appreciate your no-nonsense approach to your work. Although I'm still a novice, one thing I've come to appreciate and value is finding the simplest, least complex solution to what I'm trying to accomplish. Your straightforward approach to everything you make, from basic shop projects to fine furniture, helps me and I'm sure countless others understand that doing nice work doesn't require expensive equipment or complicated techniques. I almost always feel more able and empowered to make something after watching your videos, which is a true gift. Thank you.

Brilliant, Jon! Really fantastic jig! 😃 Thanks a bunch for the step-by-step! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@jacktyler7599]

Jon, thanks again for you telling me about Montana Brand Tools several years ago. Great stuff and great folks to work with. Very different from a visit to the Big Box store!

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks Jack, Great Drill Bits!

[@kevinmatthews814]

Another great tool for success. I've learned so much from this channel!

[@rchavez1840]

I made this jig this morning it worked perfect

[@mrharlemike28]

Perfection!

[@65895555]

That is a great jig. I think I will make a pair for bookcase length. Very useful idea.

[@kenszaszik5357]

That is brilliant Jon, thanks for sharing those tips.

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Glad you enjoyed it thanks for the comment!

[@mohsendavari2351]

Very helpful. Thank you!

@@mohsendavari2351 glad to hear it! Thanks!

[@jeanloreaud9282]

Simple et efficace, bravo, à bientôt salut Jeannot ⚒😉

[@yo-yolanda4654]

Easy to follow directions. 👍🏾 Thank you!

[@timothycreasy2161]

That is a good shop made jig and is made easier than I thought. I wish I saw three weeks ago, I bought myself a commercial made one. 🤨 Live and learn I guess

[@Sasquatchwoodworks]

Incredible video, thank you.

[@JustinPaul1st]

Plain Simple yet Effective

[@pugetlexus]

very clever and thank you

[@HammerNQuill]

If you make another with holes 32mm/1.25" apart, and 37mm off the front edge, you'll have an easier time with slides and hinges lining up.

[@twotwo5579]

Love ur video. Thank you.

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks!

[@kelseyjones13]

I wish Jon still made art videos

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Hope to again one day

[@Charliethedawg]

Thank you. I have a question. How do you drill holes for a tall cabinet? What kind of fixture do you use then?

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks! You could just make a longer jig

[@dpmeyer4867]

thanks

[@howardpilot4590]

Very smart

[@terryjerome9229]

Great idea! I was going to buy a piece of peg board. But, I like this much better! Quick question ... how do I see the rest of the video where you built this bookcase?

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks Terry! Here’s a link to the project video kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaC1mpapas6ba5osi=abEXrnjGw0OeqCrG

[@rickhoupt6933]

Could you recommend 12” miter saw tooth amount for bookshelves/ cabinet work?80?

[@MRrwmac]

Jon, I’ve got some scrap oak, so I’ll be making this for my daughter who is building her own wall cabinet with drawers, shelves and doors. Jon, could you please tell me what you use for hardware on no handle/no groove inset doors and drawers? Thank You!

[@michaelsherron7815]

EXCELLENT demo. First time viewer. If all of your videos are this simple to understand and yet precise to follow, I see why you have almost 1 millions subscribers. Well, you can now add me to the list! 😄 By the way, what Video recorder and lapel mic you are using for creating this content?

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thank you, Michael! I recently ( the past four months or so) started shooting with my iPhone 14 Pro Max and recording the audio with the Hollyland cordless mic. Very simple to use, the receiver, plugs into your phone and connect with the cordless mic automatically.

[@JonDunnmusician]

Clever idea, yet you lost me when holding the piece with your thumb(yikes) during the drill press section... had been celebrating your sled miter saw safety approach. Why not continue that with push sticks or a drill vise?
