Thin Strip Ripping Jig

Project by blackcherry posted 30 days ago 771 views 18 times favorited 11 comments Add to Favorites Watch

I found the plan for this jig from Wood mag. Tablesaw Jigs, Tip & Ideas 2009. Again most of the material come direct from the cut off bin which is always nice. For great repeat accuracy making thin strips from 1/16 to 1 1/2 strips. I made two one for the table saw and band saw. Notice the brass screw so that you can zero in on the scale. The jig should be remove from the miter slot when making a cut. Nice little jig that should get plenty of uses. Thanks for viewing …Blkcherry

It looks like the screw is almost used the same as a featherboard – very near the blade. Is that so? Isn’t it dangerous?

The jig is not used in the cutting process it only use to set the next cut. You must remove the jig from the miter slot during the cutting operation. 1st. reference the stock to the screw head…2nd lock down the fence…3rd remove the jig from the slot…4th make the cut…5th repeat steps 1 thur 4 very accurate and repeatable hope this helps mtkate
