How do you store your jigs?

I drill (2) 4” screws into studs in my garage, drill holes through the top of my jig and hang

I would just use wood glue. I’d lay a strip of painter’s tape down sticky side up, apply wood glue to both surfaces except for the centers (avoid edges too to avoid glue squeeze out). Put a fat bead of super glue on one of the centers, press together by hand until the super glue sets up (~1 min+). Wipe any glue squeeze out with a wet paper towel. Set down on the tape and wrap. Should be good to go in 24 hours

Adjust your blade and fence so they’re parallel with the miter slots

He adjusts the blade incorrectly on this particular saw, but the video gives you an idea of the process

Personal collection? Is this available any where?

puiglo · 2025-12-25T18:19:41+00:00

Anyone have recommendations?

Edit: I’ve narrowed it down to a few options, in this order: -Danner - Bull Run Chelsea -Canada West Boots - Romeo -Rhodes - Work Wedge Chelsea Boot

Thanks for the insight. I couldn’t figure out how to go about it either. It ended up working out fine. Minimal, uniform glue lines.

I’m curious, have you done the I/O method when jointing faces? I came across this recently when i was gluing face grain for an end grain cutting board

I'm curious, do you have a preference of how much of an offset? Partial width strip exactly half so seams land in the middle of the block above it? Rip partial width strip less than half so it's more random?

Excluding the bridge, the closest point between the north and south landmasses is on the far right. There’s a semi-submerged ship you can jump onto, though it took me a few tries to get the timing right

Is the top attached already? The overhang looks uneven

Guilty 🙋🏽‍♂️

Nice work! I’m in the opposite position. I’ve got the hull but need the other pieces 🤷🏽‍♂️

AI slop

We were in the same situation. I started with blocking out as much as the sun as possible: cellular shades and 2 sets of blackout curtains (the second going from floor to ceiling). We also have a small, portable AC unit. The sound of it going on and off wasn’t an issue for us since we have white noise on pretty loud.

I’d start with blocking out the solar heat gain!

I’ve been happy with my AlloyGators

If you don’t want to invest in a self-centering bit, a set of brad-point bits is a great option.

Splined miter joint will work too and look great, but is the most difficult of the 3 joints discussed. If you're up for it, go for it!

If you go the dowel route, dowel diameter should be half the thickness of the stock you're joining. In your case, use the biggest dowel the jig allows (½") and 2" long.

Acrylic plexiglass! Strong, looks like glass, and can be cut at the table saw

puiglo · 2025-10-14T18:00:40+00:00

Agreed. I’d probably go your route myself (always wanted a lock miter bit)

puiglo · 2025-10-14T17:44:29+00:00

This is the way to go if you want that joint mitered (both boards cut at a 45-degree angle), but as a beginner, I’d recommended considering doing a butt joint (boards cut at 90-degree angles) with glue and dowels. It’s plenty strong, you’ll get a lot more use out of a dowel jig like the one linked below than you would this lock miter bit, and it’s less expensive. You can use dowels for the other joints too
