Woodworker, Inventor, Father to a beautiful girl and a Dog. Check out the Katz-Moses Magnetic Dovetail Jig at www.katzmoseswoodworking.com/new-products Woodworking is my passion and I there is nothing I won't try to build, fix, or improve on my own. I got into woodworking and the passion has completely consumed me. Becoming a great woodworker and do it yourself-er is about finding the right information and creative solutions with the materials and skill sets available to you. I eagerly look forward to showing you how I accomplish my projects. If you would like to talk to me, please email me at Jonathan@KatzMosesWoodworking.com or find me on Instagram at instagram.com/jkatzmoses/

I really do enjoy your nerding out on all things woodwork! Clearly significant research goes into your content development and preparation. I appreciate the work you put into this, thank you.
Great, practical test. Great netrics. Cubitron is the clear winner. I’ve come to ignore the winers who complain that you need to buy an interface pad. Whatever. Cubitron still gets the job done; faster, cheaper & longer. Thanks for supporting/ recommending Taylor Toolworks. They’re one of my favorite vendors.
I've always seen tusked mortise and tenon with a slight bevel to the mortis and a matching bevel on the wedge (to tightly pull things together with the wedging force). Is this angled mortise and wedge the same thing, or is it technically a different joinery technique/style all together? Thanks, I just learned to cut the wedged mortis and tenon from an old book, but this straight angle looks a heck of a lot easier to get right than a 7-degree bevel on the inside of one wall of a mortis.
A word of warning about using this type of jig, if the bandsaw blade drifts off line from the template and the width of the offcut widens the tension creted inside the tooth section of the guide will snap your blade! this happened to me first time out cutting a quarter inch strip of a 3/4 inch panel … the drift was only about 3/16" before its snapped my new and expensive 1/2" blade!!
Great video! For ripping ¾" plywood at a 45 degree angle, wanting a clean cut but avoid burning, what would you suggest? (I am getting burning with my 40 tooth ATB blade from Ridge Carbide)
I took a square piece of scrap 2x4 and clamped it on top of the board I was cutting to fence one side of the saw and with my free hand held another fence face down on the other side of the saw to guide those teeth home for squared perfection. Magnets are ingenious though. Definitely looks like a fun build. Wish I had more time for WW!!! Gonna quit my job now 😅
1,200psi for Maple??? Highly doubtful. "Dale Zimmerman of Franklin International, maker of Titebond woodworking glues, recommends 100 to 150 pounds per square inch (psi) for clamping softwoods and 175-250 psi for hardwoods." I think that the people that make wood glues and do exhaustive destructive testing of likely thousands of wood glue joints on lots of wood varieties know the proper amount of pressure required.
OK, My name is James the One Handed Maker and I have a Sawstop for obvious reasons. Never set it off but as you will see in my videos I use the table saw a lot and it's, well.... just peace of mind knowing if something goes wrong I have less chance of serious injury.

I have to disagree with you about not doing your eyeliner in it, as I must say wood chisels are far better than traditional mirrors. I actually found a community, 5,000 strong whom all believe mirrors are against their religion. Thanks for the beauty product review. ..... 😂
Thanks for this awesome vid! I’ve been intimidated by the thought of cutting dovetails for decades and now I’m pretty excited to give them a try, especially with this beautiful use of contrasting walnut & maple to make inlayed DT’s. Thanks again!
Wish I would’ve never saw this pointless video amongst many others pumping the safety stops on saws. The best plan is to pay attention and keep your fingers and hands away from any fast moving blades. If you think you might need one of these. Get rid of your table saw. Sorry but people have been successful with sawing things for years and years before these things were invented. If you don’t have the experience or confidence to not have one then don’t have one.
Degrees make this demo confusing, demo the 5 cut so we as buyers know how it stack up to a $140.oo buy . . . nice product just skeptical. . .prove me wrong I don't think U can Good luck way to many variables
