    Is that a homemade bandsaw I see. Very nice! Impressive

      Yes indeed. Made from plans and I'm happy to report it cuts thru an 8 inch log quite easily. I've also fine tuned it to cut thin veneers.

    Just one more question, how do we entice you to show us newer woodworkers the step by step of making that circle bandsaw jig??

    Great to see you dip your finger into the glue as just today I did the same.

      @DebraJoyW. Thanks for your comment. Yes, dipping and spreading it on does work on narrow pieces. Sometimes I use a flat piece of wood to stress it smoothly on wider pieces

    I'm new to lathe - did you glue a second base to the bottom circle to attach it to the lathe?

    • @jamesrvs
      @jamesrvs  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi @Vrsetter Thanks for your comment. Yes, I did. I created the second base and made it round by turning it. Then with the centering holes, glue it to the bottom. There is an alternate method to accomplish this, namely use a Forstner bit to cut a circle into the base. I didn't do so since I did not have Forstner bits of the right size.

      Great idea! I’ll try the Forster approach. Really appreciate the fast response. Really nice product!

    how far apart are the pin holes on your board and thank you for the video

      Hi toby's sawdust, Thanks for your question. I used 3/4" spacing for the angled cuts on the band saw. This works fine for 3/4" or 13/16" thick boards. Hope this helps? I can also give advice if your boards are a different thickness or the band saw is set at other than 45 degrees.

    Hi James, I enjoied your video but still have some questions. How do i calculate the thickness of the wood and the width of the circles to make a bowl at 45 degrees? Thanks in advance

      @josvanhoof Thanks for your comment and question! Are you living in Holland? I'm always interested in connecting to people who share my Dutch heritage.
      Here's what you do (for boards 3/4" thick): Make your board 10 1/2" (26.7 cm) x 10 1/2" (26.7 cm). Make the jig with the pin hole a radius distance away from the band saw blade when the board in mounted (this is so much easier to see visually). Cut the circle (diameter 9.5" (24.1 cm) on the board with the board flat (cut is at 90 degrees). Your next several cuts will be at 45 degrees. Drill 4 holes in the jig (each 3/4" (1.9 cm) from the centered hole, then move 3/4" from the last hole and drill hole, then move 3/4" from the last hole and drill hole, then.....). Tilt the table to 45 degrees and mount the board in the closet to center hole and cut a circle. Move to the next hole, cut a circle, ........ until done. Let me know if this is clear and understood? Adjust for different thickness boards - I could create a formula for this but have not so far.
