Popular Post ..Kev Posted March 9, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 Could have dropped this one in a few places here on the forum but, I think this is most appropriate.. With the new saw, I needed to rework a few sleds and completely rebuild a few other TS fixtures.. There will be 2 videos and the first one is just reworking my most commonly used sleds.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chet Posted March 10, 2019 Report Share Posted March 10, 2019 Maybe I missed it but did your runner material come in a strip that you cut to length or did you get a piece that you cut into strips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered the strips and then cut them to length. There's a few places that have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronn W Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Thanks for the video. I will be making some improvements to my jigs/ sleds. I like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark J Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Hey Kev, when doing the 5 cut method I noticed that you didn't divide your measurement by 4, so your sled is more accurate than you think. The error is only .001/15 inches, which ain't bad for government work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always hard to figure out what should go in and what should be edited out.. I thought Ng did the method much more justice than I would...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byrdie Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Do you only cut tenons on 3/4" stock? I would think the thickness of your backer piece with the clamps on it would limit you. For someone who cuts tenons in items of varied thickness they may want to design a different clamping system. Myself, I use the dado stack to waste away the cheeks with my stock horizontal to the table rather than sticking straight up over the table. Seems simpler.

It would be easy enough to add a thicker backer board to it. You could also simply add to the strip that's there if the need arose. I don't use that jig a lot. Like you, I tend to use the stack but, if I have a bunch of batching to do, then that's when I set this up. No cleaning up with a shoulder plane.
