You can use a sacrificial piece of scrap wood to avoid tear out when something is taller than the stop. I'm loving these jig videos you've been making!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

That’s what I ended up doing when I used it for the box! Thanks!

[@jimkettle4487]

Hi, don't sell yourself short on your video production skills, it's very well presented; nice quick pace, clear and well lit, and a good mix of close up versus distance. The best features were; the 15 second starting snippet that outlined where you were going so we could understand the context of everything you were doing, the indepth demonstration at the end, and that you included your mistakes because sometimes we can learn more from mistakes than fluking it and getting it right, but not really knowing how we got it right.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So glad you liked it. Thanks!

[@gregstephens2339]

I concur, her videos are very addictive. Everything is smooth and even.

[@starfishsystems]

I agree. This material is outstandingly clear and to the point. I find it very motivating. Also, for all its dense information, the presentation has a real human appeal, a kind of calm happiness that helps to carry the narrative.

[@smoigida]

Perfect timing I was going to look for a video on making a shooting board and up pops your video, and it’s multifunctional, I’m all about be able to get more uses out of a tool or jig. You do great videos Tamar.

Awesome! So glad I got this video out in time! Thanks!

I have been watching your youtube vids since your first one. I admit I have not followed every one and missed quite a bit as your first ones were so simple and I was already beyond them. After a long intermission I am now very impressed how your skill level has progressed and the intricacy of your projects has improved. Great videos, clearly presented and continued success to you.

[@rogerwimmer9684]

Wow, this Lady is absolutely awesome in addition to being very informative.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

[@russveinot5754]

This is one of the nicest shooting boards designs I have seen. My hat's off to you. To stabilize your accessories just add a hold down to the board (like on your TS Sled). Also, on the donkey's ear, just clamp a scrap piece the same thickness as your work piece against the fence. BTW, I am impressed with your knowledge of what a donkey's ear is. Your skill set and knowledge base is really grown since I first started watching your channel. Looking forward to more of your great videos

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so Much! Really appreciate that. I will totally clamp on a scrap piece next time

[@reddsmorris7053]

Love when you say draws and a triangle for a square

[@MarcenariaAmadora]

The best shooting board video I ever seen. You showed the trick on the board that other videos don't show. The little edge to keep blade out of the board :) thanks again. I will make one and let you know when I pots it on KZbin. For sure the credit will be yours

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome

[@jaredbaker7230]

Wouldn't running the blade along the board create that edge in time? Like, with a couple dry runs?

[@chm1701]

You do come up with some really fantastic ideas, Tamar. This is an excellent multi-use design. I have no power tools, so would have to do it with hand tools, but having an idea where you simply change the fence to suit your needs, is genius. Really great video and thanks for adding in the mistakes too, so we can try and avoid them. All the best from the UK.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So glad you like it!

[@jackh.4016]

Hi Tamar, I'd seen this video before, and other shooting board videos since, but this is one of the best, esp. with its modularity. Now, after being less than satisfied with the miter joints on the top of a box I'm making, I just watched this 3 more times before making one. Handicapped by not having a table saw, nor the room to add one until a new home is completed in ~ 9 mos., I tried both miter saw and radial arm saw and decided the former was the better choice, leaving the radial arm saw for 90* cuts and dadoes. I still think that was right, but the miters still need a little repair, and doing it w/o a shooting board is guaranteed frustration. I'll appreciate having one jig for multiple applications! You teach so well, even when (or maybe because) you're in the process of earning. 'Tis said the wise one is she/he who knows what she/he doesn't know - I'm getting wiser every day!

[@diggler306]

Shooting boards are seriously 'next level' tools that will take your beautiful projects to exquisite. Great job!

I hope so! That’s the idea! Thanks so much!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome!

[@jonhuus1925]

I could not be more pleased with this jig. For square edge cutting the very 1st setup gave me perfect trims. On the long bevels it took me a while to get the cut square to the edge against the fence. I finally decided to make the fence on the 45 degree platform to be adjustable using t-bolts and slots. Now these long bevel cuts are perfect too. I'd never used a shooting (chuting?) board before. I don't know how I ever got along without one. The Low angle L-N Smoother works very well, as long as the blade is ultra-sharp. Perfection seems elusive in this trade, but this is a big step forward for me. - Brad (the just-barely-beyond-novice guy --- but wannabe-intermediate-before-I-die-guy)

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So glad it was useful for you and you got it dialed in!

[@TrevorDennis100]

I am so going to make something very much like this after watching this video. I have had a shooting board on my to-do list for ages, and this is going to help me get it done. I Love Rob Cosman's videos, and one thing he does is paint the lower edge of the rebate that the plane runs along with CA glue to harden it. That sounds like a good idea to me. Rob also does a totally OTT trick with masking tape to force a slight curve that apparently makes the plane sit flatter on the base, but I think I'll give that step a miss.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Yeah. That seemed a bit much for me. Ha

[@jacktrades5103]

Ah, that is a great shooting board. I somehow didn't realize I could make one with a stop to catch my work table. Thank you for the great insight, awesome videos. 😅

Very nice shooting board. Reminds me of Fine woodworking Tim Rosseau’s shooting board which is excellent in it’s simplicity.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks!

[@uncledope77]

Awesome versatile shooting board. One way to resolve the fence issue. On your "donkey board attachment." Is to make a fence attachment for the donkey board. It can look like your 1st attachment that you made. Just make sure that the fence is tall enough. Cut a matching friction fit groove. Then cut a 45 on it on 1 end. Problem solved & removable if not needed. I always enjoy watching your videos. 👍🏾That lil' bit of silliness😂 doesn't hurt either. But it warms my heart to consistently see your craftsmanship improve. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! That’s exactly the idea I was leaning towards. Great minds...😉

[@zaledalen9931]

Brilliant and versatile shooting board design. Thank you. I need one of these, and making it will be a good project for me. I love your videos, for very specific reasons: 1. No annoying computer generated distracting music jittering away in the background. So many video makers stick some excuse for music on their video and, as a musician, it's beyond annoying because I can't help listening to the "music". Thank you so much for not using any. 2, You don't waste my time. So many video makers spend up to three minutes telling me what they are going to tell me before they actually get around to telling me it. Fast forwarding through the preamble means I have to guess when they actually start saying something I need to hear. You don't do that. I love the pace you set, and if I need to think about something I can hit pause, or if I think I missed something then, heck, it's a video and I can go back and watch again. 3. You leave in your mistakes, and show how you corrected them. So many video makers pretend that they never make mistakes because they are so awesome, and of course they aren't. Okay, that's almost enough fanboy gushing at you, but I should add that your narration is very clear and well paced. You have a relaxed, yet high energy, presentation style, and you set a pace that precludes me going to the KZbin settings and running the video at 1.5 speed, which I do with so many other videos. Oh yes, one last thing, I love the efficiency you demonstrate, and the simple little tricks and techniques you show me. You are simply brilliant, and I hope you never run out of subject matter.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Wow. Thank you so much for taking the type to type that all out. I REALLY appreciate it! Glad to know all my hard work and effort isn’t all for naught. Really. Thanks so much

He actually didn’t bother me... it was sorta weird, like he just wanted to watch what I was doing. Whatever tool I was working on, he’d land on and just sort of hang out. Weird, right!?

First of all great video and info. I like the saw stop with the micro adjustment. Certainly don't need playing cards to do that now. You were saying right before the giant bee assault that there could be tear out of the wood in that configuration... you could also back it with another piece of wood the same size. Can't wait until the next video.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Hahaha yes. That darn bee rudely interrupted me. That’s exactly what I ended up doing when I used it for my actual project.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome. Good luck with it!

[@TigerCarpenter]

@@3x3CustomTamar Thanks. The SUPER major feature that I'm going to add is: - cut 2 inches off the left edge, plant neodymium magnets on both pieces to keep them together - whenever I'll be board-shooting the long boards, I can then separate the magnets-held left wing, and put it under the other end of the long board, to support it. And I haven't decided yet, but I think instead of the long slot to achieve the modularity, I might use 3 aluminum dowels. this way all I need in the new attachment, is to drill 3 holes in a straight line (drill press + fence).

I need to make a shooting board.. I actually had a need for one last weekend. Maybe a hole or two in the top of the "base" fence, and alignment dowel/pegs in the attachments would fix the sliding problem (which would eventually happen regardless of the wax).

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Yeah. I have been wanting to make this for months. Ha. While that sounds like a good idea. The fence gets chewed up by the blade and you want to be able to sneak it forward to resquare it and keep it as a zero clearance fence for your workpiece

[@scotttovey]

Good project Tamar.. Removing wax from the dado I don't know if this will work but, you may be able to reduce or eliminate the wax you put in the fence dado by running it past that 1/2 inch router bit. Given that a brown paper bag is used for sanding in some situations, it may remove the wax without altering the size of the dado. The final and fastest solution is to just make a new fence. Attachment positioning An easy method for positioning the attachments would be to add a fence to the back of the attachments (a little iffy) or to the back side of the shooting board. A more complicate method would be to add a dowel to the bottom of the attachments and a register hole for it to enter in the board. Once the attachments are cut to flush, the blade would not cut them again.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! Love these suggestions

[@3x3CustomTamar]

😊

[@AroundtheHouse]

That is really slick. Great project. You explain everything so well too.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate the feedback. It’s hard for me to explain things sometimes. So nice to know I’m doing a good job. Ha

[@DIYHGP]

Tamar good job I like the shooting board and the attachments.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much!

Closing in on 100K subscribers! Thank you sharing this shooting board video....this is now in the cue! Cheers

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome! Thanks so much! 🙌🙌

[@TheLoyal76]

Great idea you can clamp it too without using your two hands , like it 😍

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Glad you like it! Thanks!

[@tomnekuda3818]

You are amazing! My daughters would really like this channel.

[@David15585]

I am 67 years old and have been woodworking since I was a kid, and yet you have taught me a few things with all of your videos. Yes, you can teach old dog new tricks! Thank you, you are phenomenal!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So awesome to hear! ☺️

[@alfonsocastaneda3830]

Tienes más herramientas que Amazon me alegro eres una verdadera artista ojalá fuera la 1/4 que usted muchas gracias por los vídeos que dios te bendiga saludos

[@frenstcht]

Gaaaah! Things go so much better when you have good tools to start with. I got my shootin' board fixins' today, and I have to make it with hand tools and a cupped slab on sawhorses. I would literally give you five dollars and a pack of gum for a square shootin' board right now.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Hahaha 😂

[@jimboh5131]

AWESOME video; really appreciate your teaching style. Maybe make another dado piece to slip over the smaller stop to add height to it...just 45 degree a piece like the other slip on guide you have... a thought.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! That was one of my initial ideas

[@woodman3416]

Another informative video. I enjoy watching and listening to you.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Glad you liked it!

[@sqlblindman]

I had no idea that I absolutely cannot live without one of these.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Ha yeah. I tried one at a woodworking show and knew I had to build it

[@sqlblindman]

@@3x3CustomTamar I don't have dogs in my workbench, so I'm thinking I could add some and use it as a sanding station as well.

Getting the plane blade perfectly square has been a pain.... To say the least. I picked up an old Winchester plane, and one previous owner had scribed a line across the throat. That helps a lot for me. I also am some times putting a square across the plane blade as well. Just looking down the edge doesn't do it for me.... I have yet to make a shooting board. Well, I have one that does 'function' but not super well yet. I like the adjustability of yours with the different 'attachments'. Keep wondering if there is a more secure way to attach them.

[@Rafat.M.Shaker]

Great project Tamar 👍

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much!

[@alans1816]

Nicely done. Mineral spirits might work to take off the wax, and give you back the useful friction. All you need to make the donkey's ear work for thicker stock is a straight stick of wood to put between the work and fence. It need not be attached, but a small block at the top to keep it from sliding off is helpful.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! Going to try the mineral spirits. And that what I did when I actually made the box. I just put a scrap backer on

[@rosswines]

Hi Tamar. I love your work. IF I can be so "cheeky" as to make a suggestion to your Donkey Ear Jig/Sled. I have made your sled ( great idea) but used my modified version. I made the Ear Sled base board longer than yours at 30cm using 18mm tick composite HD wood laminated board #1 I cut the leading edge of the sled base board to ~ 44.8 degrees ( I will say 45 degree for the rest of this message for convenience). Reason for doing so is that if I have perfect 45 degree miters (difficult but still possible cut on my Harvey table top saw using an INCA miter sled) and bring the 2 boards together at 90 degrees that when I do the glue up, the glue creates a slight separation to the joint. By cutting the miters to a fraction less than 45 deg the exterior edge remain perfect visually. The back of the joint is slightly ajar when the miters are cut a fraction less than 45, and this tiny space can accommodate the glue. To be honest when the glue sets you actually don't see the < half degree separation at the back of the miter joint #2 The 18mm cross dado is cut further back/forward to the other side of donkey the ear fence ( away from working area) - that gets around the issue you had of having to trim the insert. Your support dado is at the bottom of the working area of the sled. I didn't think that was a good idea. #3 I cut another 18mm board with reverse 45 degree bevel. It measures 21cm long x 20 cm wide. This upper board's bevel rests perfectly in line on the base board's 45 deg bevel. 2x 45 degree blocks are inserted tightly into 2 blind dado's ( used router - same bit that has been used to cut every other dado for this project) that I had cut prior into the donkey ear base base. # 4 A triangular shaped fence has been prepared to project 28 mm height above the working face surface. I never use boards for my cases greater than 25mm anyway It is then glued to the base board and to the 45 degree working face board further edge # 5 Next was to solve your problem of not having a sacrificial protected edge to prevent tear out. I cut a "parrot beak" into the lower end of the fence - it snugs the 45 degree bevel and the apex is cut off 90 degree vertical to the plane resting edge - the front edge of this fence then contacts the plane and may suffer sacrificial damage in the future - but this is better than having no support for the work piece at all Pity I can show you a photo of my donkey ear jig/sled

[@zouhirtouti7092]

Great job like always. My favorite Channel

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! So much! Really appreciate that!

[@Roosters-rants1977]

This is pretty awesome. It's got everything

[@Eric..F]

Awesome video!!! Thank you for all you effort, I've built your tapering and tenoning jigs and I am so pleased!!! Keep up the great work and congrats on the 100k subscriber mark!!!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

That’s so awesome to to hear! Thanks so much!!

[@JohnColgan.]

Cut a small bevel on the back end of your planing stop, this will stop it from splintering when the plane cuts through

[@benconstruct]

Very good- when your ready to take on the Veritas variable shooting board with a “truly” variable shooting board shipwrights will love, give me a shout😊. If you thought up that lot yourself, you will almost certainly be able to figure out the remaining issues with my design. Good luck

[@valterleao6795]

Parabéns, quanta habilidade e carinho no que faz, é impressionante a destreza desta menina!!! MUITO competente! Abraço aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷

[@PatNetherlander]

Another great vid on a very useful jig! Instant save and looking forward making one myself!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome! Glad you liked it!
