Pretty impressive. Thanks for sharing. I might have to try one of these – they are beautiful.

I too am very impressed.. and I am sure that Kent will be too…
I just love the modified toggle clamp!!
I will stick to boards and leave the fantastic boxes to you.
Your background in drafting thingy stuff is showing.

amazing work and unbelievable Jig but just like Larry’s and David’s Jigs I can’t figure it out. I guess I just need to stay away from mosaic style woodworking. This so great Lisa fantastic . Thanks for sharing.

dustbunny,
Very nice sled and jig. I also appreciated the tutorial. very nicely done. The projects were both done nicely as well. When I show this to my wife, should I tell her that it’s imperative that she make her own and use the colors of wood also? Will it be OK for her to send you two hold down clamps, so that you can modify one for her? She’s not into bending metal! Just kidding! Seriously though TY again for all the time and effort it took to share this with us. I’ve favorited it for future reference.

Sincerely,
Ken McGinnis

That is a great jig. I need to make something like that so I can cut segments for a segmented turning.

Really neat jig to go with that really neat design.

nice sled!
I have the same tablesaw & was a little schocked when I opened the box and realized there were no miter tracks! I removed the cord wrap on the left side and have my tracks run on each end of the main table. I like the threaded inserts you are using, that’s a very clever idea! I need to work on my sled.

your double tipped hold-down is cool. I use a long pencil to hold down the cutoff currently.

Fantastic post! I use a similar jig design to cut my clock gear blanks. I use 12 separate pieces in each gear to create strength in each gear tooth across 360 degrees. Creating the gear ‘pie blanks’ is difficult at best but, necessary for controlling wood movement and reduced chipping/tear out when machining/routing. I’ll post ideas for LJers. Well done.

if i jive you my address will you mail me 1 ….
looks like i have another sled to make
thank you for sharing this

Lisa; Thanks for showing us your jig and boxes.Very well done. Have some sewers in the family,boxes will make great xmas gifts.

-- Walnut,Muskies and campfires what more could you ask for. Mike

Amazing jig and amazing results with it. Your work is really good. Looking forward to more.

-- Mike, American in Norway

Thank You to all !
I need a neck brace to support my swollen head. LOL

Larry – Damn, I thought I had myself all covered.
Ken – The clamp was bent using the Uri Geller method – psychokinesis
David – I resemble those remarks….except young
Darryl – I used a pencil for a while but my hands cramp up. I remove the pieces with the eraser though
poroskywood – Oh, like I haven’t heard that before, takes one to know one…LOL
Charles – We want to see your jig…..wait that doesn’t sound right…post your jig….ahh better

I posted this blog half asleep last night, forgot to say that I rip and cut strips of the woods to 3/4” x 1/4” x 16”.
Also Robin Tucker (aka Woodmosaics) recommended a hollow ground plywood blade. I tried this and found they dulled very quickly. I purchased a Freud Avanti thin kerf blade

This blade is great for thin work. I change the blade for cutting the 3/4”plywood lazy susan.

Thanks again everyone

I’ve been holding off commenting until I had time to really look at what you’ve done and I must say you’ve done a fabulous job. I wonder if these cuts could be done on an INCRA slider?
I am very impressed. Way cool!

You designed this jig? It’s amazing. Thanks for the illustrations. I actually get it. Very cool idea with that clamp thing to hold down the thin pieces. I am always trying to figure out how to cut the really small pieces on the tablesaw. Great idea.

I can see right now that I’m going to have to buy a digital caliper. Darn, another tool. I don’t know if I can stand it!

VERY ingenous jig, I really like the double hold down clamp, I do so hate chasing those small pieces around the shop. thanks for the post, I will have to make a jig like that.

-- Smitty!!!

wow, way to get it done, you rule.

Lisa—-I can’t believe anyone would use exotic hardwood for a JIG LOL

Now really, great job on the project and the jig. I appreciate the information you shared here. I am constntly amazed at the talent and creative ability on Lumberjocks. Now I have somsthing else to add to my never ending to-do list.

Thanks a bunch!

Kent-
To be honest with you, my hardwood leftover bin is overflowing, and my soft wood scraps are minimal. Sometimes you gotta use what ya got . Thanks for the kind comments.
