[@Gamersb3stfri3nd]

To me this seems super obvious, but a ton of other channels don't ever do it. I really appreciate that you show what you are making and how its used before jumping into the actual build. A lot of channels will start building and its only half way through the video to understand the actual design

[@PaganWizard]

I really like this jig A LOT!!! The only thing I would do, that you did not do, is add a miter strip to the underside. You can buy one, or make your own out of a piece of scrap hardwood. This would allow you to use the jig without having to rely on lining it up perfectly to the edge of the blade using your rip fence.

[@grotekleum]

Good point, added to the parts list already

[@benblackwell44]

I agree with this miter strip suggestion and have done that on my taper jig. Make the width slightly under sized so you push the jig toward the saw blade while making the cut and pull the jig away from saw blade when retracting the jig. I borrowed this idea from someone on the web.

[@Governor_William_J_Lepetomane]

I was literally about to type the same thing. You can use a wood runner, cut with this jig and the fence combo, for one last ceremonial cut before the fence isn't needed with this jig anymore.

[@Shotsmoky]

You stole my thunder PW. 👍👍

[@charlesshepherd9132]

Great idea. Definitely added to my to do list.

[@darodes]

Chris, I’m becoming a big fan of the channel!!! Videos like these are super helpful, and I’m always happy to see different persons’ little adaptations to jigs like these… it really helps beginners/newbies like me adapt and modify these jigs as well

[@asoggyburger479]

Love the simplicity but also the versatility that comes with your design. Awesome video! Probably going to be making one of these soon!

[@russmartin4189]

Chris, I subscribed even though I already have far too many woodworking channels. What I like about you is you are down to earth and a regular guy. You don't even remove outtakes. That's cool. I want to see people who are real who make mistakes and are not embarrassed to show them. A lot of woodworking is about how you recover from mistakes. Oh. I will make this jig one of these days, but I think I would put some screws in the T-Track to be safe.

[@vinnyreid5442]

Great job Chris. Looks so simple to make the way you explain it all. Thanks for the great idea!

[@5zwoodworks]

Good job showing the first one. It shows that things don't go as planned but we learn from it which is what woodworking is all about.

[@lynardburt5992]

I’ve seen a few of these, yours was very easy, and ingenious too. I like your way of the track inlay, and also the mod while showing us the build.

[@SuperZmeister]

My whole shop is a ‘catch-all’. I always know where everything I need is! Might take me forever to find the exact part I desperately need, but It makes the day go by faster. Never be ashamed of the place you make such great creations. I always enjoy your videos, keep’em coming.

[@AGlimpseInside]

Thanks for sharing and thanks for the kind words I really appreciate it

[@nw24153ns]

Your ingenuity of creating a dado without a dado stack & making wedges is way cool. PS: thanks for the help positioning drawer slides on a 9" build, it worked well!

[@homeinspectingwithjohnhans4250]

I appreciate how you always encourage the use of "whatever tool you've got". The best suggestion was the used of a screw to get the burs out of the interior of the T-Track.

[@davereade8939]

Great video and build. I've watched several tapering jig videos and decided on your build. Thanks, man!

[@Cliffepoos]

I love this dude. I am pretty darn sure I'm going to be making one of those since I don't have room or money for a jointer. Thanks so much.

[@ladykenja2700]

- Chris, thanx 4 sharing. You make it seem simple & "do-able." Always appreciate an artisan at his craft.

[@billymacmakes]

Great looking jig Chris! Love its versatility. Even if you have a jointer, these are great when you have a special piece of wood that is wider than your jointer and you don't want to rip it to mill it up.

[@justgoballistic]

I built one of these about 20 years ago because I had a need for legs tapered on all 4 sides. My stop is adjustable in height and has a steel pin which fits in a hole drilled in the bottom of the leg. Works like a dream.

[@Valkyrie1911]

This is pretty slick. I'm just getting into woodworking and this is going to be the first thing I build when I get my tablesaw.

[@woodworksbygrampies1284]

I have lots going on currently, not to mention building my shop in my two car garage that I haven't even started.....my table saw is still in the box, I'm at work (lunch break), and all I want to do now is race home, unbox the saw, and get to building. Thanks for the inspiration Chris! Have a good one, all the best to you and your entire family.

[@AGlimpseInside]

Awesome feeling getting a shop set up. Actually I helped my father today finished putting plywood walls in his shop that was recently spray foamed .

[@woodworksbygrampies1284]

@@AGlimpseInside that is so cool! I'm looking forward to that video. Have a GREAT weekend Chris! :D

[@aprildegele1510]

Great jig! One suggestion if I may. Mark commonly used angles on the jig so you don't have to calculate every time. I also use the "build around the track" method for laying t-track. So much easier, don't have to use the dado stack, and if you mess up the placement, you haven't plowed your base. Just adjust/recut to make the adjustments and voila! I noted you didn't put a runner on the bottom and I believe I can see why ... that it's not needed as you're referencing against the fence? Fancy shims indeed. Save those bits because they can make some really cool inlay/angled inserts.

[@davidmallett1110]

love the simplicity of this jig, will be making on for myself

[@mishellekochel4510]

So very much on my list of wants and needs! Thanks again for the step by step Chris!!! In my SAVED folder!!

Love it! I'm actually gonna build one. Thanks for sharing!

Man!!! Your shop and your work are CLEAN!!! Goals bro. Goals!

[@martinfetter2391]

Thank you, I enjoyed your version. Im currently make one too but Im adding the ability to use it to mill wood from small tree logs.

[@luthiermatt]

I have looked at a lot of designs and I think this one is very good. Nice work.

[@qmoonwalker3847]

Really like how you built and made slight tweeks to make it even better. Thank you!

[@sharirobinett3999]

I'm SO excited for this. Thank you for sharing. It's exactly what I need and such a great design. Can't wait to attempt my own!

[@AGlimpseInside]

Awesome. Shoot me a message on Instagram when you finish it I’d like to see it

[@stevehorner3153]

Great video, I picked up the material I would need and took less than 2 hrs to complete, works fantastic. Thanks again, keep up the great videos.

[@UppsalaSal]

Liked how you made the t track grooves. Much faster than a router. The stop block is a great feature.

[@lpanebr]

It's the first time I see someone give the tip about not putting down pressure on the jigsaw! Thank you!!

[@richragan4810]

Thanks for sharing and all your hard editing work!

[@stephenswindell1781]

A quick thought: if the piece you're edging hangs off your table before you run the second edge through, you will most definitely not get two parallel edges. Those edges will vary by whatever small (or large, or surface bump) is in the piece. Because you mount the piece in the sled, and the sled is flat, that first edge will be straight and square to the sled and table. However, once it's removed from the sled and run through the second time without the sled, any bow or twist or bump will vary the bottom surface's engagement with the saw table. For very short pieces which are completely on the table before starting the second cut, and you are very careful pushing them through so as not to accentuate any twist, you may end up with two parallel edges.

[@gandarwhite]

Dude one of the biggest reasons I love your videos above all others is they aren't overly orchestrated, it's the real you just doing your thing! And a wonderful thing it is! Keep up the great work brother!

[@AGlimpseInside]

Thank you so much for exactly right. I’m really glad you let me know and I’m glad to come through the videos to

[@woodworksbygrampies1284]

That was going to be my comment Chuck, I'm glad the video was not edited at the end. I like the real deal, most of the time. Have a good one! :)

[@AGlimpseInside]

Thanks man. I love that you’re being so involved with my channel it really does mean a lot

[@tomm3082]

Best one of these jigs that I've seen - and I've been looking for months!!

[@glencrandall7051]

I believe I have watched just about every straight edge/taper jig on you tube and this is about the best I have seen. The design is simple. Construction is straight forward. The cost of materials should be reasonable. You have specified all the materials and dimensions. And you demonstrated the construction details. (I don't understand why so many folks are asking for plans.) The only thing I can add is that before shooting your videos you should take a Valium. 😜

[@a.dejesus792]

Great jig. I will be making one for my shop.

[@createdimperfectly]

Love it! Thanks for the idea!

[@zafarsyed6437]

Excellent way to make high quality shims. The byproduct are some oddly shaped sticks...

[@idahopete9211]

Great Job! This unit is similar to a Rockler jig, but much better. I like the tee track for the clamp board function. The Rockler unit has a slot the length of a MDF clamping board, which flexes too much to provide good clamping pressure. The double layer board with the tee track is a much stronger design and will provide good strength for clamping the wood being cut. I will be modifying my Rockler unit. I'm a big fan of your channel and procurer of your products... Keep up the good work!

[@crumbocrumbo6814]

I made one beautiful design. I didnt buy the expensive t-track I made my own by cutting a rabbit in the ply wood then filed the head of a carriage bolt flat to fit the slot for hold downs I'm very pleased with how it turned out. Thank you for this vid. Subscribed.

[@hollandcustomwoodworking5932]

Great looking jig! I lost it when you talked about sanding that handle off camera 😂😂

[@TheSapro]

Thanks for this - I made it this weekend and am looking forward to getting some usage out of it! One note is that the T-track you linked to from Rockler is 3/8" tall, not 1/2", so I have the opposite problem in that the track sits below the 1/2" ply. rather than needing to be sanded down. Also, Rockler sells a similar jig for $79, and the T-track, clamps, and their 24-pc jig & knob kit came to $70 :)

[@michaelm077]

Cool jig, very versatile.

[@romanjohnston]

I am actually going to make this with 1/8 hardboard as the base of each layer. I work with thicker wood a lot so reducing the height of the jig/sled as much as possable while maintaining rigidity is my goal. Will take about 3/8 off the height of the platform the wood rests on. So my 3.5" blade height will still give me just a hair over 3". Thank you for working out the rest....nice design.

[@michebre]

Great video. Thanks.

[@Lwimmermastermetalart]

I think it’s a bit debatable whether it’s worth laminating plywood opposed to a dado or router bit to do the T track. But I’ll give you an A for creativity! Also I think a guide to go into the table slot is also a great idea. Don’t use wood though. Temp and humidity will change clearance . They sell nice pre fab adjustable slides or just use plastic like UHMW. Just an option but the fence does give you adjustability when you need it.

[@MashMonster69]

Nice jig. I'll probably make something similar for my radial arm saw soon. 1 idea about the handle you made. The action you are doing is similar to pushing a hand plane, so make your handle like a plane tote, lean it more forward (about 55 or 60 degrees from horizontal) and it'll be more ergonomic.
