If I had all those tools it would be easy too. So guess i`m buying one
Great jig. the only mod i made on mine was to cut the edges of the trangle bit to 45 degrees so it is easier to mark the tread material before you cut it also I made mine from aluminum so I can use a marking knife without fear of cutting them up over time.
I made this jig and it works perfectly. Great video an explanation Wes. Thank you for sharing.
Lance Mckinney thanks! I am glad to hear it works for you. Since I have made this jig, I’ve used it on numerous stair jobs. It hasn’t failed me yet.
You are The Best in our Blue Planet !
Welcome back Wes, nice to see your projects again. Awesome build, a very useful Gauge/Jig.
Thanks, Sam. I am trying to get back into it. I had a busy year with moving, building a new shop and having a second kid.
Congratulations Wes, perfect start for 2019 a new Child, House, and Shop. God bless and wishing you success.
Great work Wes, this tool is a must when you have a tread and riser job. Chris
yep, it was the only way I could figure out how to get the proper angles of the stringers.
Wes Hamstra yes they are handy , I have one that I bought for about $20.00 cdn
A little trick instead of using a pencil use a razor knife reason being that the width of the pencil like leaves room for error but the razor blade comes to a sharp point and you can cut right to that score mark and it be perfect every time
cool jig thanks man
I like the rounded tips of the wings. They would prevent the tips from falling into a crevice between the stringer and the tread or riser. On my stairs, the OSB does not go all the way across on the tread or the riser. There is about a 3/16" to 1/4" gap. Just enough for the tip to fall into when measuring. This throws off the angle. I thought it was my method of cutting the flooring that was causing a small gap on one side. After trying three different ways of transferring the angle and making the cut, I realized that the error was always the same. That's when I realized it was how the angles were measured. The tips of the tread gauge were falling below the line of the surface that I was measuring. When you line the tips up to the edge of your flooring to mark the line and make the cut, your angles are off just enough so that your cuts are not fully flush with the stringers. Those rounded tips would prevent that.
Nice video Wes! Thanks for sharing it with us, And Merry Christmas! To you and your family!👍😎JP
Thanks for watching, Merry Christmas to you and your family as well!
Your very welcome Wes! And thank you as well! 😎
Job well done Wes. I really like the looks of your jig and would like to make one for my stair project. What size bolts did you use? Also can you give measurements of where you drilled your bolt holes and routered the slide arm slots? What size and how long are the slots in the slide arms as well?
Thanks for the video, Jeff
deancamp Can you also send me the measurements
probably a little overkill for me personally but loved watching the build!!
The music at the end sounded like Charlie Brown's teacher as a rapper 🤣
Here's how to make this needed tool at home when you have all these amazing tools in your professional shop lol
谢谢
Any videos of your mortiser??
The extra holes? They're for ventilation. Very important.
very true, ventilation is important. Glad I added them.
Speed holes
I need to cut out slots but I dont have a router can i cut these slots with something else??
First
congrats ben!
