Loved this video and just subscribed; love your sense of humor, precision, and educational style. Thanks so much; have to make two 4’ x8’ frames so this really helped me think through the process.
I hadn’t run across this video before but found it timely, regardless. I too cut large frames , especially now that I have a wide format printer. My new jig resembles a number of others on YT, except that it can accommodate lengths up to about 47”, and the stop is cut at a 45 degree angle so I can precisely cut to a 1/16” in length. Your process I think is spot on. I love your spline cutting jig and I think I’m going to borrow its design. I especially like the clamping configuration. Currently I’m using a jig exactly like your old one, and have been searching for another solution. Your final product was exquisite. The miters looked perfect. I only hope the posters that went into the frames were worthy!
Thanks for the feedback. I really like the spline jig, and I borrowed the idea from other places as well. If I did it again, I'd probably make it smaller and just for picture frames, since it takes up a little more space than I'd like.
Great video and narration. Love the jokes. You have the whole range: Band Clamp; Charlie Browns Shirt; Diapers. When routing the mortises, you could have used a longer template board. If the template “hooked” over the top of the picture frame, you could be assured the mortises were exactly 12” below the top. Noticed that you had a stop pice to assure the mortises were centered side-to-side.
you’re not going to cut your fingers off on the table saw. don’t think like that. if the blade is sharp, the fence is locked in, use a push stick, keep the material against the fence, and some downwards pressure at all times, you will be fine. respect the machine and keep your fingers away from the blade, especially over the blade, and you will be fine. never rush the cut using the table saw, because that’s when the material is pushed up and toward you. you can easily over power the motor on a 110V motor on a table saw, but staying safe, and respecting the machine is rule number one. fear works against you when there’s not need for it. yours using other tools to avoid the table saw, and that speaks volumes. understanding the operation of each tool is key. if you use each tool as it was intended, you’ll be fine. cutting thin tiny strips of wood on the table saw can be done safely if you use proper techniques, and you’ll never get cut. never. pay attention 100% of the time, and take your time. it’s the most useful tool in the shop. i’ve been using a table saw for 35 years, and still respect it like it’s the devil. i pay attention to what i’m doing snd make sure how i’m cutting won’t hurt me. EVERY TIME. when you notice the blade getting dull because it takes more pressure to cut, it it starts to burn, swap it out for a fresh blade. i just would not avoid the table saw. you can do so much with it and be safe about it. cheers ! no, not cheers, don’t have a drink lol cheers as in ciao, or good bye

Thank you. I wasn't sure if it was worth putting yet another picture frame tutorial on the internet, so it's good to hear that it was useful.

Love the visio visual. It's really to helpful to understand what is going to happen.
Very well done, sir. Beautiful work! And your video was great, your commentary was hilarious 😎
Thank you
Love a video on that spline jig!

The dust collection on your Router Table is dialed in!
The router table is still one of the worst dust launchers in my workshop.
😂😂fooled me with the reverse clip, didn’t even notice
Excellent work and an enjoyable video to watch.
Thank you
Beautiful frames!
Thank you

Cool beans man!

EVERY TIME.
when you notice the blade getting dull because it takes more pressure to cut, it it starts to burn, swap it out for a fresh blade. i just would not avoid the table saw. you can do so much with it and be safe about it.
cheers !
no, not cheers, don’t have a drink lol

No splitter and leaning over a very high spinning blade - I think that he should be worried about what a table saw can do to his fingers!
Excellent job! DD
Thank you
Excellent work. Do you thin the polyurethane when you spray it?
No, it's thin enough that I didn't need to with my sprayer.
@@TheSnekkerShow I may need to get a larger nozzle.
