ganna use it w paper
FYI, I'm really digging the 60fps on your videos. Adds a great level of clarity to wood working videos. Nice move!
Man, John. I can't tell you how much I loved RUSH when I was younger. Man, there is just no better band in my mind.
Don't know how you guys making these videos keep coming up with ideas, great idea John. Thanks for sharing.
Great shirt - the best album of all time!!!
Moving Pictures for me.
That's an awesome idea John!
LOVE THE SHIRT!!! Greatest Rock Band...EVER!!!!
Slick idea! Saw manufacturers might just swipe this one for an additional feature.
Thanks John this is a really an enjoyable video. Something I doubt that I would of considered but that's why I like your video's they stir the old gray matter ! Boudie in Kentucky !
I made a ZCI for my saw (I have the model Hitachi saw that you have) out of phenolic-faced plywood ... it replaces the two green inserts with a single throat plate. It was a bear to get right ... I like yours better!
2112 is one of the best albums from my childhood. Love the t-shirt.
Thanks for putting your great videos out in the world, John. Thanks for sharing your expertise and your interest with the world. You're the best.
That freehand table saw cut scared the holy hell outta me. A rasp it is. 😂
a newbie to diy...you have a very good way of teaching...great style
LOL. "What ever slower method, or less interesting method works for you". John, you're awesome!
Nice...As I'm watching you make this in your Rush 2112 shirt, I'm sipping coffee from my Rush 2112 coffee mug. Interesting as usual John.
All I can say is I love your work. I'm going to make this one.
Great job John! I'm running this saw as well, the old one had an adjustable piece that did this function, pretty sad when I realized that piece doesn't move forward on the new 12". Also, I had to cut the "dog ear" off the left side of the fence to get it cut on the 45 to the left, I was surprised that wasn't noticed during the design phase.
The music ! Wonderful ! Great project !!!
I’ve learn a lot from your vids. A gotta say though that the “free hand” at 3:35 is akin to feeding a great white, but hey both require skill and competence. Another great vid, thanks for sharing.
Tricky little bit there John. Great explanation of how and why.
Nice trick and nice t-shirt too !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
great Tshirt!!! Rush for ever, great job Jhon!!! thanks
Excellent video. Thanks for taking the time to make and post it. Really helpful. Master Craftsman!
I have the same saw, I ended up using blue tape to put out a template from the green rails and then transferred that to a piece of oak i cut out.. works great but you're method seems alot easier, especially for making multiple inserts.. will have to give it a try.. thanks for sharing John
How do you like the saw in a long run?
i really like it.. I originally bought it out of necessity. Small shop needed a saw that could go right up against the wall. At the time the Bosch wasnt out yet so it was the Hitachi, the Festool Kapex at 3x the cost or a cheap craftsman.. I do not regret the purchase at all
GREAT video John, and as always, a project that is functional and very well thought out!!!
Saws are so much safer with these zero clearance setups it's a wonder that they don't come this way off the shelf! Nice idea with this one :) Also: (RUSH)
unless you want to cut small parts or don´t want tearout in soft woods at the back
@Catherine S. Todd, maybe if you have a sharp blade with many teeth for smooth cuts you may not need it at all. But I cut soft wood and do not have the money to always have the blade properly sharpened and use a blade with 48teeth (for rough cuts) and don´t want to change the blade every time so it is an improvement in cut quality then. Sure, hardwoods with a dull blade leave burn marks and is a no go. Additionally it prevents small parts to get grabbed by the blade and be thrown at me (or around), too, sometimes.
@tyvek05 Sure, but I don´t have the money to always have my blade sharpened properly or may use a blade with less teeth so I can benefit from a zeroclearance-insert. No tearout (or fewest as possible) at the back and bottom for me :)
I agree with you 100%. Also leave the blade down until it comes to a complete stop before raising it will help.
Zero clearance is for straight and angle cuts when not using bevel on saws. The companies have to give both in design. Makita at lest use to make plates that could open and close as they were two eice design.
I have no idea what he's doing but I just find it interesting
same lool
Why I'm subbed
check out 00:40, you'll get the idea.
when cutting small pieces off the end this is greatly appreciated
Took me over 2 minutes to notice your shirt. Love it!
Thanks John
I like the way he explains things 👍
Another cool video straight from the Temples of Syrinx
Works great saw. Like!
John I love your voice. Great job on your videos.
Nice idea. Might use it later.
Great build John. You are very creative and inspiring. Keep up the good work
Damn, these are beautiful shots! So crisp. Nice camera/set up Mr. Heisz. * shakes hand *
lovin' that mini-sled!
Sweet! On the road but when I get home I gotta see if this will adapt to my Bosch glide.
Great idea John!
Thanks :)
Very good, nice work.
impressive idea... i will definitely adapt that for my own mitersaw. thanks !!!
Great editing!
Interesting way to make a ZCI. I'm going to try it out. I've got a Dewalt DWS782 so it will be a bit different setup.
Good luck with it! Nice to see how you make out with it.
Great ideas.......I love that t-shirt, Rush is my all time favorite band.
Sheer wizardry!
I really enjoyed this video.
very nice idea
who the heck dislikes knowledge?
Thank you
This is almost therapeutic
Always cool to see your videos including this saw being that I have the same one. Hopefully you can come up with a clever idea to improve the dust collection of it. I'm considering making the soft rubbery piece of material much bigger to direct the dust but haven't got around to it yet.
This was a pretty fascinating project 🤓
I have the same saw! It is awesome! I'm so going to make these
Great idea. Very clever.
Great Idea John!. I will try that on my old dewalt. Love the shirt too
Very nice! Thanks John!
Awesome! I have the same saw, may give it a try.
bonus for the Rush T
Very well done!
sick idea. thanks John
Had to subscribe when I saw your t-shirt! I've been looking at the Hitachi saw for some time now, you sold me on it.
Sick rush t shirt
Really cool and well explained, thanks
craftsmanship!
Nice! Another great video, John. Keep it up!
Oh man I need to do that so much for my own!
LOVE the t-shirt, great vid by the way !!!!
I like your job John ;) Hello from France ;)
Damn, I wish I had a mechanical mind and could figure this shit out however, my brain makes everything complicated when it doesn't have to be, Thanks for simplifying this sitch!
Nice. I do need to make one
Love the shirt !
that's way better than the old one you had. It still looks like there is a small gap under the table
I definitely would like to try this out, being that we have the same mitersaw! nice work John.

I am a complete wood work novice and starting to buy tools for my workshop. I have just purchased the Bosch dual bevel sliding compound mitre saw and I am going to ask what is probably a very stupid question so here goes. Why is a zero clearance base so important or beneficial when the manufacturers don't put them on at the factory. Secondly I found that I had to tweek the angles on the blade on my brand new saw to achieve the perfect cut. I know I need a 80 - 100 tooth blade to help but is this usual practice? It was rewarding to set the machine and I have learnt a lot about my new beast!
I'm pretty new too, but perhaps I can explain it.
A zero clearance insert helps eliminate chip-out/tear-out. When working with small pieces like trim, veneer or even larger pieces that require clean cuts , it saves you the step of scoring the other side. There are other benefits too however. Dust collection and safety come to mind.
Good idea. I just screw a piece of wood onto the back plate. I see yours has holes to fix wood onto it as well. Then 1 piece of wood can do multiple angles. Am I right or being daft? Your videos are great all the same. Good craftmanship
Nice shirt! Love your work, cheers.
Great video John. Nice shirt too. :-)
Nice shirt!
Wow! That shirt is WAAAY nicer than that saw. ;)
hey John.. nice t-shirt man ! :) love that band !!
Great advise.
2112. Great album. Thx. 😎
Which sliding mitre saw is best to crosscut out a 2 inch deep trench out of 4x4 inch timber. The trench or mortise is cross cut repeatedly using the depth gauge control, does it cut a flat bottom trench ie is the saw arm stable, which saw works best to cut out mortises. Thank you, great video.
Well done John.
P.S. Nice t-shirt!!
Nicely done - I may have to build one for my chop saw (different brand).
PS nice tee shirt!
Awesome video, Subbed😬👍
Clever. Thanks.
interesting! very cool
cheers, it's always bothered me trimming aluminium down with a thin bit dropping in the gap. having to fish it out so it doesn't get snaged out on the next cut.
Thanks for sharing. You are definitely much more experienced as a wood worker than I,so please don't take offence when I say that you don't need that bottom zero clearance since the saw teeth are cutting upward as they clear the stock bottom.
I had to do a test run with my mitre saw on a scrap piece of plywood and, sure enough, even with the most aggressive cuts (maximum pressure), all the tear-out was at the back of the stock, the underside being a clean cut. Ergo no bottom zero-clearance piece necessary - at least in my case.
It happens when you make videos without a script that you may not say exactly what you meant. What I really wanted to say is the one in the bottom stops that gap from filling up, and I thought about re-shooting the scene again to fix it, but didn't bother since most people think the one on the bottom actually helps for a cleaner cut.
Thanks. Yes that makes sense
John Heisz - I Build It, yes it helps you get your marks in both the front and the back or whichever one is easier to go off of.
John, some great ideas. Ingenious!
Is there any reason you couldn't attach a piece to the existing aluminum fences for the vertical fence? You do loose the thickness of the wood fence in the cut but it's minimal. To get a new ZCI you just keep moving the L & R fences together until you reach the max then attach another board. JimE
nice shirt!
Ingenious
My feelings exactly. Ingenious!
I realy like your T shirt
At 12:33, it looks like the green throat inserts sit lower than the deck of the saw. Any reason you wouldn't want shim those flush with the rest of the work surface?
LOVE the shirt!
Was there any particular reason why you used the scroll saw to cut that curve and not the bandsaw? I'm guessing because of its finer/thinner blade.
Nice shirt
Nice vid, John. Can I ask, why didn't you just hinge the back plate onto the part that mounts to the saw?
