I love the 2 x 45degree cuts so you have offset your saw by 45 degrees in order to cut angles such as 65 degrees. That’s a new one for me! Total genius!! Great work as always and great tip Knackers!!!
Brilliant, will add all those tips to my skillset. A chartered Engineer, for 50 years (retired now) always willing to learn, you remind me of my Engineering Apprenticeship Tutors, skills I still retain.
I've seen all your Miter Saw videos - I've seen all your videos - but this is the best and most awesome video you've ever done and I've ever seen! You made me wanna run out into the garage and start cutting wood like a maniac! A maniac with knowledge and safety thinking that is😋 Thank you for another awesome video! ❤
Just discovered your channel and it’s paid off already. I built your jig for cutting small pieces except I’m cutting aluminium and well….what a gem of an idea. I’ve cut blocks of aluminium as small as 10mm x 10mm x5mm and I’ve measured the block but they were out of square….by 11 microns!!! Wow, who would have thought that a simple wood jig could provide such accuracy. Love the channel, love the ideas and laugh at the dad jokes. Keep up the wonderful work.
Thank you so much all the tips are so Useful. I have a small miter saw and occasionally I needed to go to a higher angle and now I know how to do it. That little tip is worth it’s weight in shrimp on the Barbie
I really missed watching your videos, they are super informative & very entertaining. I get some good laughs to start off the day. Thanks Uncle Knackers!!!
Great video. Thanks. Having never owned a Compound Mitre Saw, and after watching one of your videos yesterday, I had go out and buy one. Now hooked on your videos. Love your sense of humour …. zero tolerance … the news. That was good!
Though I rarely use power tools I still greatly enjoy your channel. Something your followers need to know is the more types of cuts a mitre saw makes the less accurate it's going to be.
Great video Knackers! I was the bloke in the funny uniform who spotted you at the airport - I’ve since opened my DWS780 and set it up and used much of the tips you have recommended in your videos. Keep ‘em coming!
🤣....What a classic! Great meeting you by the way....hope you got your passengers to where they were meant to go...from memory, Perth was it 🤔 Good to see that you got to using it and thanks for watching 👍😁🇦🇺🎄🎄🎄
Wow! I am a member of a Wood guild and I have not seen anybody do any of these things! of course we have a number of really great tools, but I don’t have those great tools at my house. However, I do have a miter saw, just like his.
Mate I thought this will be rubbish. How wrong can I be. Every one of those tips will be making an appearance in my garage. Thank you so much and you have another subscriber. Cheers Pal.
Thanx. I tried a project a couple of years ago that didn't work out on my miter saw. I never thought of a zero-clearance jig. Maybe I'll revive my project.
Cheers Shane, it's wet cold and miserable here in the UK. Your video has brightened the start of the day up. Could do with 90 degrees in the shade here😂
Fantastic tips Uncle Knackers, extremely practical and most importantly saves hands and fingers from amputation and severe injury.😱 When you see folk with digits missing and mangled hands stomach turns and you know victim will wake up every day wishing if only he could turn the clock back! Personally use an Evolution chopsaw and bench table saw, for two reasons. 1. Blades can cut mild steel and soft metals too. Blades are excellent because they are slimmer than most with less agressive teeth, therefore result in substantially less kick back. Blades also remain sharp, even when a lot of mild steel box and tube has been cut. If you happen to try and cut welded joints though blade knackers straight away! The only downside is wood with thickness of up to 4 iches or 100mm can be cut. When first purchasing any of these tools, the golden rule is to spend time initially setting up for accuracy. This will save hours of time and frustration in the long run.
I’m an extremely new woodworker. When you showed how to cut the 65° angle, I scared my entire family with an exploitative. 😂 I just subscribed so PLEASE keep doing what you’re doing!
Great tips. Single biggest improvement to my miter saw... a set of FastCap Zero Clearance Tape strips. Easy to put on & change when worn down and cheap... 5 for
Hello mate! Just a quick comment to thank you for your videos (this one included) sa you are one of the main reasons I picked up woodwoorking as a hobby! Cheers!
OMG! The 60+ angles, the matching angles on different widths, and the small cuts...Genius! I should've watched this before pulling half of my hair out! Thanks
Wow! Those were the BEST in the book! Thanks for this share! I LOVE #5, the Zero Clearance Jig! Will come in handy soon enough! All the best from Saskatchewan!
I needed all 5 tips!! priceless.. I needed that Zero Clearance Plate BIGTIME 👍 Best 9 minutes yet!! God Bless. New Sub & a new Saw & I am new at it so this was actually answered prayer! *Appreciate the video!!*
You Rock brother! Look forward to watching each video! Keep up the great content…and never stop telling the Dad jokes! Love the tips, tricks, and instructional videos!
Great ideas as usual. Love the humour. On getting the angles square, I find on thicker wood it helps to take a couple of shallow cuts first to prevent pressure from getting the blade out of alignment. Keep it coming.
Thank you sweetheart, I have been pulling my hair out trying to do a 60 degree on a 45 degree miter. Know all I need is to remember this in the morning. lol x
