The Genius Miter Trick You Were Never Taught

  • If you've ever tried to miter two different widths, you no doubt have ran into some problems. Unequal width pieces cannot simply be mitered at 45 degrees. Today I have a neat trick to make a perfect right angle mitering two different width pieces that is quick, efficient, and requires almost zero layout.

    As per the norm, I forgot to mention one thing: Depending on the widths of your pieces, the narrow board will most likely come out to a greater degree than what the saw can handle. In this case, the narrower board ended up being around 55.25 degrees, and my saw maxes out at 50. In order to cut a steeper angle than your saw can handle, you have to use something as an auxiliary fence that changes the reference angle. That is exactly what we did here, but instead of setting up an auxiliary fence to, say, 45 degrees like most folks do and then measuring the angles and doing the math, we used the first cut as an auxiliary fence that just happens to already be at the correct angle. I sincerely hope this makes sense! It's hard to remember sometimes what is "common knowledge" and what isn't.

    • @JasonPeltier
      @JasonPeltier ปีที่แล้ว +10

      yeah that makes a lot of sense... you're not using a 90 degree auxiliary fence like the normal way, you're using the cut angle as the fence and cutting the piece at "90" degrees
      amazing tip!

      @@ick5353 yes , it spoils it for me.
      Paul Sellers woodworking is outstanding for sensible, quiet videos, Stumpy Nubbs and Rob Cosman, and others, are as well. It makes a huge difference but this culture of stupidity is prevalent in broadcasting and in newspapers as well so it’s really nice to find people whose substance is good enough that it doesn’t need cheap jokes to prop it up

    One thing not mentioned is if the face of the material is distinct, then if the first piece used as a fence is face up, then the second piece should be face down when cutting it or vise versa. Also pay attention to the edges if it matters - if the first piece is inside edge towards you, the second piece should have the inside edge to the right.
