Super nice job!! So clear and concise. Much better than I could ever do. You got my manual down to no more the 87 pages. Haha
😂😂😂 this jig is really so brilliant! Thanks for letting me share it!
Bro are you the owner of taytools? 😳
Awesome. I placed an order with Taytools earlier today.
Mike, where is the 3x3 jig bundle on your site? With the promo code spif for Tamara? Build that list kids
@@ilikewaffles3689 Yes...
Rewatched after 2 years. Still learning new things. She's brilliant.
When Tamar says "Let's see how it all fits together" there is literally zero suspense... we all know it's going to be extremely precise and look perfect. Great video!
Hahha 👍👍
Yep- no-one shows the failures...
@@Tensquaremetreworkshop not true with Tamar. Check out her roll up chair project.
Done#naseebsales
@@Tensquaremetreworkshop Tamar and rag n bone brown are the only ones I've seen that always show failures
You have a real gift for making things easy to understand. The way you combine that with woodworking skills is amazing. Thanks for this!
So awesome to hear! Thanks!
@@3x3CustomTamar I agree with Will Josephson!
For something with so much detail, it really does break it down to easy to understand steps. I don’t know if it would help or not but I feel like maybe it would make more sense to see how the jig is used prior to the assembly, like I was confused as to what all the grooves were for until the end when I saw it used. Now that I’ve seen it in use it makes much more sense. Obviously people will have watched the video before trying make the jig so maybe my comment is pointless. 🥺
@@jeremyspecce I agree. I've watched so many videos and couldn't figure out what they were doing or why. It would help immensely.
This is without doubt my favourite you tube channel, your talent is amazing
Cheers from Australia 👍🏼
So awesome to hear! Have a great weekend!
You are a great teacher! This fixture sure beats spending $1000- $1500 for a domino joiner, especially for a home hobbyist. There are times when I feel that making jigs and fixtures are even more fun to make than the furniture. Very nice job & filming.
Haha I hear that!
I just want to say, your jig videos are some of my favorites! They're so informative and accessible! It makes a newbie like me feel like I can actually do some cool stuff in my limited shop.
So awesome to hear! Thanks!
American here, living in Spain. Love your videos! But you had me going crazy with all the imperial measurements to then find out the loose tenons are in metric! 😆😅 I’ve been converted to metric every since living here, so much easier to calculate on the fly.
👏👏😅
Totally agree. I live in the Caribbean and we also use imperial, but I’ve since switched to metric and my cabinet designs have been super accurate
I have been living in Asia for ten years now and I still have to have two sets of measurements for every project plan I get from the US.
I have to say you have become one of my favorite follows on TH-cam. You are such a good teacher. Kudos.
Thank you again for a "useful" jig. About your calipers, they are just loved! You keep raising the bar and you do it with such grace. Thanks again for taking the time to show us how to make ourselves and projects better.
Haha glad you liked it!
I absolutely love your instructional videos! You’re super amazing at breaking concepts down for the most novice woodworker to understand!! Keep making great content like this!!! 👏🏽🙏🏽🪚🔨
So glad you like it!
What a wonderful video ... you make a project like this so clear and concise that I even got it. You truly are a treasure to the community. Thanks and good luck on your move.
This lady is an excellent teacher.
I think it's great that you do real, fine woodworking and make alternative tool recommendations whenever possible. You are the most helpful woodworker on TH-cam!
So awesome to hear! Thanks!
Tamar! I'm a very big fan. I'm a university professor and weekend woodworker. Let me tell you: You are a naturally great teacher! I watch a lot of woodworking videos and coming back to one of your videos after watching some others is a like a pressure valve being released in my brain. You're so clear and concise. Thank you for what you do. One question/comment: I was surprised that you didn't have a zero clearance insert in your table saw. Any reason?
So talented and a gifted problem solver. Thank you 🙏🏻
Love your jig videos. Brilliant
Since I'm a Newby to woodworking, this is a little out of my league still, but I've saved it because I know this will absolutely be helpful to me in the future! You make things look so easy, and your explanations are so clear, I can understand them! That says a lot! Luv this channel! Cheers!
So awesome to hear!
You can make the loose tenon bits easily by creating the tenon firstly in one long length by sizing a length of timber to the correct dimensions of the mortice; for instance 45mm wide by 8mm thick, this can be any length depending on how many tenons you may need. All you need to do is round over the 4 edges for the full length of the timber using a 6mm round-over bit (raise the bit just enough above the router table-top to create a shallow round-over edge that will fit the mortices round edges. All you need to do then is cut the tenons into the length you need them to be for the mortice. Rounding over the edges of the timber can also be achieved using a hand-held router or small plane. I thought I would mention this as I had visions of some beginners making their tenons one by one. Very good video by the way.
Awesome video from the most awesome multitasker ever. Mom and woodworker. How you do it is amazing and inspirational.
Wow! I love this! Well done!!
omg i'm not the only person that breaks into the pearl jam song whenever i am looking for literally anything lol... i haven't even heard that song since like the 90s and yet i think about it all the time 😂
Oh where oh where did I put the salt? 🎶 it goes with everything.... ha
It’s actually a song that was a hit in 1964 for The Cavaliers (a previous recording was on Tamara Records) which was a cover as the original recording was Wayne Cochran in 1961
You are fun to watch. Making your own tenons- Use your router table and round the corners on pre-dimensioned stock . Cut to desired length and this is a good use for scrap stock. And yes your detailed delivery is a joy to listen to. Your accent is a hoot as well.
Beautiful work. Thanks for your detailed info
My pleasure 😊
For those of us in the metric world the challenge is getting 10-32 threaded rod which is simply not easily available. The answer I came up with was to use a M6 drill/thread bit. All these fittings have a brass bushing and since M6 is just a little larger than the nearest metric size to 10-32, M5, then drill out and tap the slides and knobs with the M6 bit and replace the 10-32 rod with M6 threaded rod and the problem is solved and you can still use the Matchfit or Microjig hardware.
I hope you bought Mike a brew and shared a laugh with him.
This is a great idea.
😂😂 i was coming up with something so similar. But it didn’t involve the built in dovetail tracks. I thought that idea was so cool
yep Mike is awesome!
You're awesome the way you're documenting the builds! Thank you!
Great description. Thank you for sharing.
Fantastic! I love that the fence itself is designed to be removable as it really broadens the possibilities. I love the Matchfit stuff but boy does it get pricey, so I wonder - could this be made with T-track, or alternatively just a T-slot bit, and some hold-down clamps attached to T-bolts?
My design was to use t track. Then Mike sent me this version and I thought it was so smart to have it all built it. But yes. There’s always another way!
i was thinking i might make the dovetail nuts out of some hardwood scraps with threaded inserts. then all you need is the dovetail bit (and the dovetail clamps, i suppose)
I am playing with that right now and I realized, that if I use dovetail bit and make two or three passes 1mm or 2mm deeper every time, I then can use clamp from my plunge saw track.
Iam using this on several jigs.
Great video, great craftsmanship! But broadside routering at 7:11 really scares me. My technique is to tape a sacrificial board (to the workpiece) wide enough to change the ratio of width to length, then push it through. Simultaneously prevents tear-out.
👏👏👏
Honestly, so talented; so helpful; so straightforward; so enjoyable! Thank you for all the great content!
So glad you like it ☺️☺️🤘
I love your work you're so smart god bless you
Thank you for recognising the pain of metric people :p
Another amazing video and resource, thank for making it!
Hahaha I feel your pain when someone starts shouting mm to me 😂
@@3x3CustomTamar 🤣
Lol pain of metric people. You guy just can't deal with fractions.
3mm plus 4mm. 7mm
3/8 plus 3/4. Fast off the top of your head whats that?
@ 7:49 - the walnut piece looks like a huge slab of chocolate, best jig ever :-) Great work and great video yet again
Hahah it does look pretty good 😂 glad you like it!
I built the Morley Mortiser a few years ago for a bed I made. The portability of this design is definitely going to make it a great addition to my shop. Thanks Tamar!
Awesome
Honestly, I think all your little riggs and jiggs are the most interesting thing you make.
Are you still friends with Mike after you blasted the plans he spent weeks painstakingly constructing? 😂
I hope so 😂😂😂
Still friends! Haven’t unsubscribed…yet!! Hahah Really nice job with the entire build.
This makes me more likely to buy a Domino.
Me too!!!!
Absolutely, most awesome!
I love your honesty.
☺️
After watching this video all I can say is "Thank God I saved up my money and bought the Domino Joiner."
Ha! I will get one eventually , but its cool to show options
@@svenulfskjaldbjorn5401 The Domino has been around since 2007. If you wanted one you needed to work a little harder when you were capable. You are too old now. I myself worked a side job on the weekend that made me about $100. I saved that for a year and bought one when they were $1100 about 2 years ago. I have a feeling you just didn't want to give up your bar time to afford one. You probably spend a fortune on cigarettes as well. I didn't insult Tamar at all by my comment. She even replied with a "Ha" so keep your negativity to yourself.
Christ man what’s wrong with you? And how do you follow all that with “keep the negativity to yourselves”
I just found your channel, I'm impressed with your abilities and your explanations. Not to mention you're having fun and enthusiastic.
Genius idea! Glued to the channel.
I have seen several mortising jigs in magazines and books, but yours is the simplest and most clearly explained which makes it easier to build. Keep up the good work!
Awesome to hear!
Once again a great watch. I just love the way you enjoy your woodworking. Keep smiling 🇮🇪
Thank you very much!
I love all the little tips, like rough cut first, then route, then trim to final size.
Awesome to hear!
As always, a pleasure to watch you, learn a new trick and get a new jig to grow my woodworking skills even more.
Awesome. Glad you liked it!
Pretty dang cool. Nice job on the jig,
I gotta say, I like how real you are. You're not afraid to show you make mistakes sometimes. Really love your channel
Awesome to hear! Thanks!
I'm going to say it again, you keep inspiring me in so many ways.
Thank you.
Awesome to hear!
Excellent job and wonderful teacher! Thanks for taking time to share your love of woodworking!
So glad you liked it!
This is a fantastic little jig. Thanks Alistair
Glad you like it!
I absolutely love the outtakes and that you show it when you make mistakes. I appreciate the logic explanation along the build. Thanks!
Haha glad you enjoy. Thanks!
This is genius. I was really confused at first, then it all came together and made sense when you used it. Your creativity - in this case, creative adaption - is why your channel is one of my favourites for woodworking.
So awesome to hear!
Wow. Tamar is so gifted - both at figuring things out and explaining it to others. Really inspires me to try some small projects on my own. I could really see her with her own show on PBS.
Ha! Awesome to hear!
For quite a long time i was wondering how to express 榫卯 in english, your title gives me the answer. In my opinion, MORTISING and tenon joint is better than glues and nails in woodworking
definitely making this one
Strong and smooth
This is an awesome video Tamar!
A great teacher, a superior carpenter and an amazing TH-camr. Truly rare quality. Grateful and in awe. Thanks a bunch.!👌❤️🤩
☺️
Incredible, thanks. great jig.
Excellent video production! Thank you for speaking fast, fast-fwding through boring parts, and thinking the content is more important than hamming it up for the camera. I can't remember the last time I watched a video on less than 1.5 speed setting.
Originally, I got annoyed at imbedded commercial, but 5-tapping thru it was a lot easier than waiting 5 seconds to "skip".
One of the best jigs I have seen, and simply explained. Well done.
Glad you like it!
Great jig and instructions, liked this video already a while go. Now I’ll go look at your plans.
Love this , thanks for Sharing x
Thanks for watching!
Bela: que idéia genial fiquei de boca aberta parabéns
I really love the fresh and eassy to understand way you make things out!!! Thankyou!!!
So awesome to hear!
I just came across this video and glad I did this is a nice jig with lots of uses. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
A brilliant tutorial and a brilliant jig - thanks to you and Mike Taylor for sharing this. Respect.
Glad you enjoyed it
thanks for the upload
Love your wood choices, makes it look like a work of art.
It’s what I had.... ha. It does make it look really cool though!
Just built this jig but made it a little wider and longer, to accommodate a Bosch 1 3/8" guide template. This should allow me to make tenons strong enough to build large furniture items. This was my first time using microjig dovetail clamps. Purchased the microjig router bit but didn't rout channels quite deep enough (and you can't go back and rout another 1/16" deeper!) with the result that when fully tightened, the nylon dovetail inserts don't quite lock the component you're trying to lock in place to the underlying piece with the routed channel. I'll modify the nylon sliders so it's an easy fix, but I won't make that mistake again.
Excellent video, as always.
Simply Brilliant!
Thank you so much for simplifying the whole process.
Cheers from Chicago!
It’s so simple yet packed with features!
Amazing! Tough build, but you explain it so well. Thanks! We gotta start calling you the "JIG GIRL" 😍😍
As. Always great instructions
This is a really cool idea, and thanks for the very clear explanation. I was looking through your links and realized that I could easily print all the knobs and dovetail nuts I would ever need. All I need to do is pick up a boatload of heat set inserts. Thanks for the inspiration!
Glad you liked it!
I just saw this video I got to admit that all your video is so clearly explain no loud 📢 music 🎵🎶 and noise in the background how awesome 😎
Master class in communication skills with precise instructions. You don't waist one word unnecessarily, and you display a great personality that is very easy to listen to and follow. You definitely convinced me to make this jig, even though I've made mortises on my router table, this is another tool to add to my tool box. Thank you Tamar!
Very interesting and thank you for the demonstration
I’m just getting around to building this after buying the planes. I’ve learned a lot from your channel. Great build so far. Thanks!
It goes with out say your wood working skills are outstanding , I wanted to compliment you on the Segway to the hello fresh advertisement portion. It's seamless and very well done over all . Thanks for running such a great channel !
Haha thanks so much!
I really look forward to each of your videos. The jigs and techniques you show make me want to go start a project of my own.
That's really so awesome to hear!
Love your video 📹 all of them clearly explained no loud noise and music in the background
So I buy a jig
that counter sink bit is proper sharp !
Great idea. I think I will order the plans.
Thanks very much for this clear, concise video video. You are superb. I will definitely build one.
You do make very elegant jigs.
perfect thanks for every think
Thanks for sharing those tips and the make!
Glad you like them
impressive jig
Graet job. I am very impressed with your work and design,
Where do I find a link to plans and measurements?
Such a long and detailed description of simply jig. Thank you!
Glad you like it!
Your channel has been the biggest help with learning woodworking of any other resource I use.
Awesome
Ingenious design. Thanks.
Glad you liked it!
Hermoso y perfecto trabajo. Carpintera sin igual !
I just finished making the Mini-Tenon jig per your video and plans. It worked out great. Sure beats buying a “Domino” for my small projects. Your instructions were the reason it works so well. The supplies you mentioned from Taylor Tools made it easy to get the correct router bits and loose tenons if one was so inclined. Thank You and keep up the good work
So awesome to hear! Glad it worked out for you!
Thanks Tamar, for another great, instructional video.
Glad you liked it!
So simple and easy to understand. Beautiful job as always, another great video from the Router Jig Queen of Chicago!
Hahaha! Me and Abe froman. So much in common
BEAUTIFUL 😊❤
Thank you for your excellent work
Glad you like it!
Awesome video, as always! So very useful, and clear!
