You are such a great teacher you have made me a way better trim carpenter. Much respect to you Spencer.

@joelluesse4408 Год назад

It is INCREDIBLY generous of you to share your vast knowledge of trim carpentry. Your channel has improved my work immeasurably. Thank you Spencer.

@thomassciurba5323 2 месяца назад

Not only are you a great trim carpenter you are an amazing teacher.

@paulbagley1020 2 месяца назад

You've explained nicely why my miters weren't coming out the way I wanted. I'm doing a home project that calls for roughly 300 identical molding cuts and what I've learned with this video is how to make them all perfect. Thanks!

@MichaelCZUSA Год назад

It works on my two Makita LS1013 Compound Sliding Miter saws. Great tip. Thank you!

@michaelwangler486 Год назад

Awesome video. One thing you mentioned resonated with me - many times NOT using a tape measure gives you much more accurate cuts. Templates, story boards, jigs and stops, etc. are your friends.

@dennishawk1476 Год назад

I'll probably never use 1/4 of the stuff I learn watching your videos, but I continue to watch them over & over! I have gained so much knowledge from your RU-vid channel.

@mynameIan Год назад

True. Makes me wish I had trained as a carpenter from a young age. Seems so satisfying.

@bernitup6492 2 месяца назад

Thanks for the tips. I actually did this last year when I decided to copy the dog ear cut for fencing. I put a stop block to cut the 1x5 to 7 ft and then I put a stop block to cut the notches to form the crown cut like a typical dog ear for fencing. My neighbor who works in construction was amazed at how nice all the cuts align when it was all put together.

@mickkoldy1323 7 месяцев назад

I'm not a carpenter but, your tips make be a better DIY'er. Thanks!

@skipanardoross6805 6 месяцев назад

Kudos for putting out a miter saw video that actually goes in to detail about mitered cuts. 8 bajillion miter saw tutorials out there explaining how to cut a 90 with a stop block but few that explain miters, apparently. I was puzzled as to why the auxiliary fences threw off the pivot until I watched again and realized my aux. fence aligns with the primary and does not add the 1/8 as yours does. Developing and maintaining consistent miter cuts is a tricky thing especially if the pieces are of two different lengths and there's a dedicated face as with molding. I drove myself crazy trying to get a workable set up yesterday and did several searches trying to find an answer. I realize now that I should have used "trim carpentry" or similar terms but I'm just making a box so it didn't occur to me. You are right in that no one is teaching this type of thing but if I need to know how to reduce tear out, sneak up on a cut, or how to use tape to make a zero clearance, the videos are aplenty. Thanks for the great information.

@Funkafella01 Год назад

This was exactly the video I needed. In the process of putting decorative molding on my interior doors and have a bunch of cuts to make. I kept screwing up the miter cuts forgetting which way to turn the saw.

@waynemiller6070 Год назад

I thought I had seen you demonstrate this before. It didn't work as well for me, but I realize now that I was cutting on the left side of the blade and you're darn right. It makes a difference. Thanks for this post and all of your previous instruction. I like being efficient. I still struggle with accuracy. but I'm working on it.

@russhenry8112 Год назад

Wayne you are a rare man, you admit your short comings. We all should be so honest 👍

@fbenkautz2662 Год назад

This technique works on my Ridgid mitre saw as well. The right face of the blade is always in the same point. This is the best advice I have ever seen on mitre saws. Thank You.

@doggobork-bork5305 Год назад

That fence and wing set up is awesome!

@duenge Год назад

Every video is a Master Class.....Thank You.

@homecraftsolutions3506 Год назад

The best tutorial on the pivot points and using stop blocks to batch produce. I did not know about the right side of the blade being absolute zero and didn't think about the EZ fence adding an 1/8" to that pivot point. Really a great job Spencer.

@josephmccann4143 8 месяцев назад

I'm not a finish carpenter and only occasionally cut "batched" parts. I'm very thankful to learn about the pivot point and dual level stop.

@trevorwalters7978 2 месяца назад

Awesome. Learnt more in last 20 mins than last 55years. Just starting out on my hobby wood working journey..👍🇬🇧🇬🇪🙋🏼‍♂️

@robohalloran3244 Год назад

This has been by far the best mitre saw tutorial and explanation I have ever seen 🙏👍👏.much appreciated my friend , I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge.

@aaronkuhns6211 Год назад

Thank you I have tried to batch cut trim once. Until now I didn’t understand the pivot point concept. Between this and your rolling miters video. I’ve added two new professional skills to my ever growing list. Thank you Spencer.

@aaragon6866 Год назад

I learn a lot from your videos. thanks

@feds27 Год назад

Great video!! Thanks for posting.

@solomontessema7902 Год назад

Greatest teacher !!!

@brianweishahn9131 Год назад

I've been using the same saw for years now. One thing I do is batch cut all the bead pcs oversized by an inch or so with all the LH miter cuts. That way when I'm batch cutting vert panel rails and beads I only swing the saw left to right once, not on every stick of bead.

@heruvey87 Год назад

pretty sure he does the same , hes only switching because hes only cutting one .

@MarkThefarmer-bi1ec Месяц назад

OMG : you really are amazingly talented and you can tell when you talk and explain what you are doing, how passionate you are about your work. True inspiration And thank you so much for sharing your knowledge I’m thinking on semi-retiring and want to do wood work as a hobby and am looking into mitre saws so this is a big help in getting me started! Thank you so much Keep them coming!!!

@mikerugar5440 Год назад

Great video, I was always cutting my 45's on the left being right handed and watching my pencil line. But after this video I went down stairs and made a stop block and followed everything you did and wow what a difference perfect 45s and my 5 year old Kolbalt has a perfect pivot point.

@MarceneiroFDS Год назад

It is very generous of you indeed to share experience. Thanks!!

@stevea4123 Год назад

Just tested and it works the same on my 10" bosch axial glide miter saw. Pivot is indexed to the right side of the blade.Thanks!

@CarlosSilva-kv1do 6 месяцев назад

Una de las mejores informaciones que puedo implementation, Muchisimas gracias por compartir tus conocimienyos

@chrisl2807 Год назад

Awesome stuff. Thanks for the great vids.

@jareddautremont6258 Год назад

Daaaang! On the last tip as soon as you reached for the scrap piece it clicked what you were about to do, and I'll be definitely keeping that in mind! I don't often have wings on my chopsaw, as I usually am doing just rough framing on jobs I need to be in and out pretty quick, but I do sometimes attatch a 12" strip of 3/4 so I can screw down a 2x4 as a stop block for gang cutting deck skirt boards. I'm keeping that trick in mind for when I know I'll have board of different lengths to do, and not need to keep unscrewing and moving the stop block. Genius and am kicking myself for never thinking of it before haha. Great tip.

@pdcro1247 Год назад

Brilliant!!! One of the very few who keeps coming up with incredible content

@johnlease7517 Год назад

I liked the horizontal bead trick. I use the vertical but then have always reset my my stop block. My Bosch axil arm has the exact same plane. Good information as always Spencer. Thanks

@marshe2932 Год назад

What a smart guy who share his wonderful ideas generously.

@TOP2095 4 месяца назад

Did not know all these tips.Great video on saw set up.

@samuelstone5770 Год назад

Bro, this is some cool technique! I had to run out to my job site on the weekend to check with my saw and see if it is made the same. The Makita GSL04Z is the same way. That perfect pivot point is spot on if you run off of the right hand side of the blade. Cool trick man! This is gonna up the efficiency game. Thanks Spencer.

@00m1k300 Год назад

By far the best saw set up I’ve seen that I like. I would burn threw a house twice as fast with that set up. Great video.

@lougjolaj7839 Год назад

Spencer I salute you number one carpenter in America 💪👍🙌

@tylerwalker5607 Год назад

Good video. I would add when using stop blocks put a small backcut on the stop where it meets the table. That way sawdust does not build up in between the trim and stop. Sawdust Will start throwing you out pretty quick when production cutting.

@lug01 Год назад

Great presentation. I have the 780 and never considered the location of the pivot point, much less that it referenced off the right side. Good to know, thanks.

@matthewblumenthal804 5 месяцев назад

Didn't have a clue. Will be very useful in various projects. Thanks!

@danielerd986 Год назад

Understanding the pivot point explains a few perplexing measurement problems. I really pays to thing these things through, thanks for the tips.

@covecarpentry Год назад

Checked today on my little makita 40v LS0026 miter saw and it works.

@tracymiller1715 Год назад

Never have seen this technique before! Now I can use it thank you Spencer!

@brocbradley2313 Год назад

It's not a trick. It's brilliance and talent. Fantastic.

@peterc3228 Год назад

Tried your tip Spencer, on my Bosch GKG 24v miter saw (20 years old, with the original motor!) and it works a treat. Best to use the original width and kerf blade for maximum accuracy. Many thanks for sharing. Here's a wee tip that might help someone out. When Tightening hand tightened drill chuck, tighten as much as possible then back off a bit and you here a click, this locks the bit in the chuck, and solves the problem of the bit working loose as your using it. Works with Bosch cordless drills (might work with other makes too, test out) Great channel, keep up the good work. All the best, Pete 👍 (Scotland UK)

@goodtobehandy Год назад

Brilliant. Thanks for sharing. Now when I set up my miter saw like this , I'll look like a genius.😁

@TheRayCaruso Год назад

I ran into this problem with the aux fence and the left side stop blocks. Thank you!

@bryangoldschmidt1576 Год назад

Precisely what Tony said. My trim and staircases have come a long way thank you for always putting good content out

@Tim921 Год назад

I did not know this trick. I have a Delta 10" Sliding Compound Miter Saw. I will do some test cuts to see if this works on my saw. Thank you for this great video.

@petee6476 Год назад

I bought that same exact Miter saw because of you. Same blade too.. I bought those same exact aux fences because of you. I had no idea leaving those on would affect the angle/length when batch cutting doing a mitered casing. Thank you for letting us know that. I leave the fences on because they look cool. Not anymore... Thanks again...

@jfk139 Год назад

Wow! I'm starting a big bar project with lots of panels, you just saved me hours of cutting and fitting with my 780!!!!! Thank you!!!!

@bazzawattz Год назад

That’s a real time saver and super accurate . I really like the adjustability of the flip up double sliding stop block set up 👍

You’re a bad dude 👏 some of the best Carpenter videos onRU-vid

@alrightythen1533 Год назад

Another great lesson Spencer! Do you think you would ever do a demonstration at a JLC Live event? I think it would be awesome to see you run a demonstration in person.

Great information. Happy to say my 3 year old Kobalt 10” miter saw passed the test! Thanks for your insights. As someone else posted, I only use a small portion of the knowledge in your videos, but watch them all, over and over. Keep them, coming, please.

@placacentrocasamania Год назад

never imagined that pivot point would have a location to make it easier to use the saw. I think the brands don't even mention it and even less an instruction manual on how to take advantage of this type of tool. thanks for the info Saludos Gerardo
