    The book recommendation has changed the way my saw works! I’ve had it 10 years, from new, and changing the angle of the bottom wheel has transformed it. Thank you from the UK.

    Regarding the versatility of band saws; I’m a luthier. I went 30 years without having a table saw! I did everything on my Delta 14” saw with a riser block. And it’s such a calm and quiet machine. A welcome change from using routers and jointers!
    Now I have a table saw. But I still use my bandsaw more.
    I have a copy of the Bandsaw Handbook I bought around 1990. Great book

      Yes, I feel the same way. I can see how as a luthier you would prefer the bandsaw too. Such an art and its own special woodworking niche. I am just learning guitar in the last year and it’s got me itching to try my hand at making my first acoustic. Much respect and thanks for watching 👍

      Not only am I a wood worker, but I've been playing the guitar since the age of 13,.... I am now 48. Anyway, could you please give me the model number of the "Delta" 14" saw you use, or use to use, please?

    Thanks, I learned a lot of handy tips from this vid and thanks for the info on the bandsaw book. I love the woodworking shows, there is a good one in the spring here in the ATL.
    If you were near Wilson, NC, did you ever eat at the Beefmaster Inn? Little tiny place next to a gas station and a casket company. Best steak ever.
    TIP: instead of using double stick tape, put a layer of blue painters tape on each piece of wood, then use a couple of drops or lines of super glue to stick them together. After the cut, you can pop them apart and peel off the tape, leaves no residue. I have used this to make veneer down to about .045" on the planer.

    I made some wood blocks compatible with the shapes waffled-in underside of my cast iron table, the blocks have magnets drilled in so they are movable and stick under the cast table for easier clamping of jigs and table extensions.

    • @EpicWoodworking
      @EpicWoodworking  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I love that idea Ralph! I’ve used the block idea before but the magnets is a great idea. 👍 I suppose the blocks could also be glued directly into the voids using an appropriate adhesive…I can’t think of a good reason you might want to remove them. Thanks again! 😎

    Excellent jigs! What's the general rule for how high to set the band saw guide? It seemed higher than necessary in the demonstration, but maybe it's better for the viewers.

    • @EpicWoodworking
      @EpicWoodworking  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, you are right about that, it is set higher in the videos so it’s easier to see the cut on the video. But normally you want to be as close to where you personally need in order to see it well, and still have the guides down as close to the work so that they are guiding the blade there rather than higher and allowing for more potential blade drift.
      So as a general rule, around a 1/4” is good if you can see it at that height. Thanks for watching! 👍

    still having a love/hate relationship with the double sided sticky tape? try masking tape on the template and on the workpiece. ca glue on one piece, activator spay on the other,then stick them together. will hold them secure enough to use a guided router bit but still seperates easy enough (so long as you dont put lots of CA glue on - only need a few drops!) no nasty residue left behind when you split the pieces and remove the tape. I use that method all the time no problem. 2nd jig to follow a curve line was great thank you.

    It seems to me that your pivot point jig will not produce identical items. Your jig will produce concentric curves of the template shape. It means if the curvature is of radius say 100 cm, your jig will give you either 102 or 98 cm for 2 cm of width, depending on if template curve is convex or concave...

    • @EpicWoodworking
      @EpicWoodworking  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes Michael, that is an accurate observation. Usually I will re-tack the template to the new curve and skim it across a flush cutting bit on the router table, then use the pivot point again.
      The template curve is usually almost indistinguishable from the freshly sawn surface so is is a very light skim past the flush cutter. But for the reason you stated, I like to circle through this way in order to insure more uniform parts.

    Hello, wood worker from Welcome, NC. I was really trying to pay attention to the simple "wedge" cutting jig but the cameraman done a horrible job of recording the procedure. Although it's a simple procedure, it is absolutely crucial to see how your left hand is manipulating the stock. (I'm referencing procedure beginning at the 9:00 minute mark.) On almost every cut, the cameraman is NOT showing how you are flipping and turning the stock in preparation for the next cut. I'm sure one can figure it out but they shouldn't have to risk making a mistake simply because you didn't show the procedure. Huge mistake in my opinion.
    Don't assume your viewer (s) are at your level of experience.
    Other than that, good video.

      Okay sure, the first was a simple little “wedge jig” for making small wedges on the bandsaw. The second is a sometimes called a “rub block” best used when pattern routing multiples. And the third is called a “push point” used for sawing parallel to a curved edge to quickly saw out uniform curved parts. (thumbnail photo). Hope that helps! 👍
