The best tools and jigs are the simplest in design and function. No need to over complicated things. This kerfmaker is all of that and a bag of chips. I will be using your design. Thanks for sharing.
Hello from Easton Maryland. Wow! I made my kerfmaker and to build together took me day and a half. Your idea is great! So simple and so precise. All your ideas and woodwork is so good. Thank you for share with us.
First of all, sorry about posting on an old video. This is elegant! It is the simplest kerfmaker I've seen. I was thinking about ordering some T-track and then it dawned on me to use a sliding dovetail. Thank you for the great video and the cool idea @I SIMPLY BUILT IT !
I like your use of T-Track. This Kerf measuring tool is simple and easy to make. In December, I made one for me and one for my son for Christmas. He loved it. Thanks
Sehr schöne Ausführung und Erklärung. Vielen Dank 🙏 🍀

Hello my friend. That's a great idea. Doing Dados and Rabbets is a difficult task at the table, trying to get in touch. Congratulations. Thank you for sharing. Huge greetings...
Just gotta say, at first I didn’t understand you sled setup and why you were putting your hands through the holes. Then it dawned on me. That’s where you are supposed to put them to be able to hold onto the work piece and know that your fingers are a safe distance from the blade. Great ingenuity!
I SIMPLY BUILT IT nachgebaut, ausprobiert, für richtig gut befunden :-) Am Nachbau Deiner neuen Sternvorrichtung arbeite ich noch... Viele Grüße aus dem Erzgebirge und guten Rutsch
the hand holes are genius, and make this sled super safe to use i imagine, well done, i have watched bloody hundreds of sled vids and thats the first one i have seen, also reduces weight i imagine?
I like your designs. You manage to find very simple solutions to problems. Others I’ve seen are more complex and I think simple solutions are the best.
I really enjoyed your version of the kerf maker. I did make it, but have not had a chance to use it until recently. I want to give you a shout out and kudos for your kerf maker. I was able to get my dado and groove right on the money. With the screw set as an offset for the blade thickness, you can also use it to fine tune the dado or grove. Thank you for the video and inspiration!
Dafür müßte ich eigentlich mehr Daumen geben können. Das ist viel einfacher zu bauen und ich glaube das er auch genauer ist. Wird auf jeden Fall nachgebaut. Danke fürs zeigen! Mach weiter so!👍
Good video. I'll be making a kerfmaker just like it. Thanks for showing the actual machining at high speed. I wish/hope others will follow your good example.
Thanks so much for this simple and accurate design. I made one today and can't wait to use it on my next project. I'm a subscriber! Update: I used your kerfmaker for the first time on a project and my dadoes were perfect, best I've ever done. Thanks again!
Must be the simplest and easiest kerf maker design I've ever seen. I can't wait to design and build my own. Beats spending $35 on one. After all, we are woodworkers, right?
This design is awesome. I am considering making one out of HDPE to avoid any humidity concerns. Also using a screw insert along with a little blue thread lock to keep it stable.
I think this is the best design for a kerf maker (less complicated as well). I have built and used this design and love it. I like your idea using HDPE. The only issue I had with the one I made is operator error🤣 Not paying attention to what I was doing.
Thanks, I like this slimline design. I have some track that is for a1/4"-20 bolts and some 3/4" oak. Just need to find me the bolt. UPDATE: Got the hardware, it works perfectly. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Thanks alot for the video and instructions Will definitely give this a try before spending $60.00 on a micro Jig kerf maker Thanks again for sharing the idea
Super simple and functional. All while saving gobs of money! This is the one I will build. Thanks for sharing this video. On another note, in some future video would you mind saying the words, "I'll be back."? Just for the heck of it? No reason, really...
I made one like this thanks to your video and it works very good too Thank you. I do have a stupid question since I am just a beginner woodworker. How do you use this Kerfmaker on wood pieces that are longer than the width of your sled and cannot put a stop block where you need it?
Really nice design. I made one with the usual design and it works fine, but using the t-track will make for a more robust tool and looks nice. Having an offset set screw looks like it will make it easier to understand. With my previous kerfmaker, I often got confused which way to have it oriented for the first cut. But if the "bottom" always starts next to the fence, followed by rotating the bottom downward, that's an easy process to follow.
EXCELLENT!!! SIMPLE et EFFICACE. Vidéo très bien expliquée. Merci pour le partage. (chaque semaine, j'attends avec impatience votre nouveau projet)....
I built both a kerfmaker abd a tenon maker (i.e. they are what's pictured in my avatar to the left of this comment), I'm very impressed by the elegant simplicity of your design, I think it's much better than even the original.
Sehr schön! Einfacher gebaut als meiner, aber vermutlich sogar genauer. Werde ich auf jeden Fall nachbauen, danke für das Video. Toll finde ich auch die Öffnungen für die Hände in deinem Schiebeschlitten. Sieht vielleicht etwas schräg aus im Video, aber der Nutzen und der Komfort erschliesst sich mir total. Gerade bei sehr repetativen Schnitten. Die Hände wissen, wo sie hingehören und man kann die Werkstücke viel bequemer fixieren, als über einen 15cm hohen Anschlag
This KerfMaker is simpler than those commercial and DIY solutions on the internet. And, more importantly, is intuitive to use. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate that.
Simple, elegant, and innovative design. The hand holes in the sled fence are a great idea too. I am looking forward to watching more of your videos!

Phenomenally simple and very accurate. Not only that but simple to build. Thanks.
Thank you
Well designed, your version requires less steps to create and is perfectly accurate. Thank you for sharing this with us!
A very simple jig that is fantastic. Thank you.👍👍
Thanks. I'm glad if you like it.
Only just saw this after looking at other kerfmaker videos and this is so much easier to do. Mind = Blown. Keep up your good work.
I have watched a few of these kerfmaker videos and yours IMO is the better of them all. Well Done. I also liked the handholes in your sled.
This is the best one yet:

Nice version of the Kerfmaker. 👍

That is one heck of a nice Kerf Maker & probably the Best that I've watched be made on here!!!!!
Thank you so much.
Simple but great. My favourite. Thanx for sharing your ideas with us!
Dankeschön...
Thank you. I'm glad if you like it. Gern geschehen :-)

Am Nachbau Deiner neuen Sternvorrichtung arbeite ich noch...
Viele Grüße aus dem Erzgebirge und guten Rutsch
only one word: amazing!!!!!!
a big thanks for this
Very simple but very accurate.
Beautiful piece of work. Most enjoyable!
Thank you
This is a really clever design using the t-track 👍😎🇦🇺
Very good, the easiest to do I found. Thanks.
the hand holes are genius, and make this sled super safe to use i imagine, well done, i have watched bloody hundreds of sled vids and thats the first one i have seen, also reduces weight i imagine?
I agree. Those hand-holes are game changers. I will quite happily steal this idea for my sled. Thank you.
Einfach genial, wollte mir schon einen kerfmaker kaufen. Hat sich mit diesem Teil erledigt thanks for this.
Best one video I saw. Thanks show more such video

¡Diseño simple, simple, simple!.
Gracias por compartir, ¡Internet es una hermosa herramienta!.
Sofort nachgebaut: Einfach, genau, genial! Danke für die tolle Idee!!
Danke. freut mich.
Nice little tool! Simple to make and simple to use. I like it!
Thanks
I've seen a few of these on utube now, but this is by far the best. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much. I'm glad to read that.
Clever tool. Thanks.
Shop made tools are always welcome, they help hone your skills.
Thanks
Simple to make, but works! Great narration explaining why.
Thanks
Very good jig.
Congratulations from Brazil!
Thanks
Wow...that was pretty neat!
Beautiful work....
Good video. I'll be making a kerfmaker just like it. Thanks for showing the actual machining at high speed. I wish/hope others will follow your good example.
Thanks.
Great way to make use of those short left over chunks of t-track
Einfach Spitze, das wird nachgebaut. Vorallem eine Spitzen Resteverwertung... ein Stück T-Nut Schiene hat jeder wahrscheinlich rumliegen. Danke dafür
Ich danke Dir für diesen Kommentar. Freut mich wenn es Dir gefällt.
Thanks so much for this simple and accurate design. I made one today and can't wait to use it on my next project. I'm a subscriber!
Update: I used your kerfmaker for the first time on a project and my dadoes were perfect, best I've ever done. Thanks again!
I have used your version of the kerf maker and love it. Missing your videos. Hope all is well.
Simple, effective design. Going to make one. Thanks.

Wow, this looks a lot more simpler than the other kermakers I have seen on TH-cam, but it is really brilliant. Thanks.
Thank you.
The best design I’ve seen! 👍🏻
I have watched a few of your videos, and I really like the way you explain things, your awsome thank you
Thank you so much. I really appreciate that
Hello Sir. This was an awesome, excellent, and elaborated presentation along with magnificent idea. I loved it.
One of the simplest versions I’ve seen. I’ll be making this one very soon!
Dito
Thank you for the compliment
Thank you for this excellent design.. I'm going to have a go at making one for myself. Cheers.
Muchas gracias muy buena herramienta que dios le de mucha salud , desde Lima Peru
Simple, elegant and useful. Thank you. Saved for future use, and already a subscriber.

Thanks for sharing this great & simple design. I had a small spare piece of T Track, but decided to 3D print the other part 👍.
That's the best I've seen. And beautifully explained.
Thank you so much
Thanks, I like this slimline design. I have some track that is for a1/4"-20 bolts and some 3/4" oak. Just need to find me the bolt. UPDATE: Got the hardware, it works perfectly. Thank you so much for sharing this.

This is an awesome idea! I will be making one of these! So SIMPLE. I do like how you simplify things. Great videos.
Thank you so much.
Sweet! Nice work! I'm making one of those...👍👍
What a great idea!
Thanks
That's brilliant.
You are amazing sir!
Super simple and functional. All while saving gobs of money! This is the one I will build. Thanks for sharing this video.
On another note, in some future video would you mind saying the words, "I'll be back."? Just for the heck of it? No reason, really...
Best vid on this tool I have found, thanks, I will make it myself and report back
Once again... BRILLIANT!!! Very well done. Thank you!!!
Thank you so much. I'm glad if you like it.
Great job, well explained.
Thank you
it's just different in construction but very very nice work and looks gorgeous. Well done
I subscribed and rang the bell. :) I hope to soon build 3 of you projects. But first I must finish my work bench.
Brilliant mate!
Très astucieusement précis pour de petits assemblages super ajustés Bravo
Merci
What a good idea! Many thanks and.......greetings from us in Holland🌷🌷🌷
Thank you. Greetings from Switzerland
I like this design better than the usual one.
Thank you
Great design I will be building this instead of buying a kerfmaster.
Simple design that works well using materials on hand. I used a walnut offcut and blue T-tack, just to be extra fancy. ☺
Here's a simpler version:

Very nice. Pretty sure many of us are going to be making t-track that way too.
Thanks
A very good demonstration of building a most useful tool, thank you.
Thank you
Love it thank you so simply brilliant
Congratulations
Great idea, great video, thank you.
Thank you
Super bravo!!
EXCELLENT!!! SIMPLE et EFFICACE.
Vidéo très bien expliquée.
Merci pour le partage.
(chaque semaine, j'attends avec impatience votre nouveau projet)....
Merci pour le compliment
Very nice job.
Thank you
The best Kerfmaker I've ever seen!!! It is such a simple but great implementation! Thank you for sharing! The subscription is done :-)
I built both a kerfmaker abd a tenon maker (i.e. they are what's pictured in my avatar to the left of this comment), I'm very impressed by the elegant simplicity of your design, I think it's much better than even the original.
Thank you so much.
Pretty nice work, dude! Fantastic idea!!! 😃
Thank you
Pretty good job
Fantastic idea
Thanks
Very nice. I'm going to my shop right now to make one! :)
Thanks. Yeesss!!
Fantastic i was going to order one from China but will be making yours instead big thumbs up 👍
Thank. I'm glad to read that.
Sehr schön! Einfacher gebaut als meiner, aber vermutlich sogar genauer. Werde ich auf jeden Fall nachbauen, danke für das Video. Toll finde ich auch die Öffnungen für die Hände in deinem Schiebeschlitten. Sieht vielleicht etwas schräg aus im Video, aber der Nutzen und der Komfort erschliesst sich mir total. Gerade bei sehr repetativen Schnitten. Die Hände wissen, wo sie hingehören und man kann die Werkstücke viel bequemer fixieren, als über einen 15cm hohen Anschlag
Vielen Dank.
Brilliant! Going to make me one, thanks to you 😁
I'm glad if you like it.
This is a really helpful build!
I'm glad if you like it
One piece of wood, simple and easy to adjust. I'll do it next week
Off to make one of those👍😁
He visto muchos vídeos del "kerfmaker" y este modelo es el mas sencillo y preciso y fácil de manejar...,
bien vu! une conception simple et efficace (le plus dur dans les créations c'est de faire simple. bravos)
Merci
