How To Cut Perfect Circles On A Bandsaw 

That jig appears to be an excellent addition to the band saw defiantly will make one

Love your band saw and drill press. Watched both circle video's and enjoyed them.

Thanks for a jig that's simple to make and use. Works well

Brilliantly simple jig. I just made one of these (with a few tweaks to suit my own cheaper bandsaw and a 5mm metal leather hole punch as the pivot) and it works perfectly. In my head I was way overcomplicating matters. This is a brilliant solution. Cheers man. Subscribed.

I like this jig, simple and functional. Suggest use a brad-point bit to drill smooth, clean dowel holes. Thank you.

Sweet simple jig - the best kinds!!!!!

Easiest video by far! New subscriber!!

Great jig Wes, subscribed!

Awesome, glad it worked out! I've seen versions where the center is in a sliding track which is even more flexible, but this type is great for identical parts!

Great Home Shop Idea, However if you cut a large diameter circle and place your stock on the far out holes past the table you will need a support to keep your jig from tipping up. I have a Delta Circle cutter and it has this support. This would work fine if you kept everything not too far off the table.

Nice! Will be needing one of these soon!

Love it. Thanks.

Thank you just got a delta model 14 and will be making this

Another winner Wes!! Thanks now I can use the TS or the BS to make circles!!!

Nicely done Wes! It's nice having both a table saw & band saw circle cutting jig IMO. The table saw jig gives you a nice clean cut which just requires a little sanding.

You are good at explaining

Amazing. Thank you

Excellent!!!! you just got a new subscriber

Thanks !

Really a great idear 👌 Thanks Mate Greetings from the Netherlands

LIke the video, what is the accuracy of the circle? The location of the dowels related to the front of the blade make any difference? Got mine made today and at the point to drill the dowel holes but is it OK to use 1/4 inch dowels and would it make a difference on the accuracy?

How long and wide is the board you made for your band saw.

What size and tooth blade do you use?

what was the accuracy of the circle?

I prefer this jig over the table saw jig. Nice

Great jig. I just got a band saw that was my late father in-laws. From the video I think it is the exact one I have. My question is is a United by NEWCORP. Model number 1309 14” Wood Cutting Band Saw. Looking for the manual if anyone can help out.

I'm confused as to why mine doesn't work. I have basically the same board with holes, etc... When I throw a wooden log on it, or even a 8x4 klyn dried block, I can start to make a cut, and as I turn the material around all it does is push my bandsaw blade sideways. Having said that my bandsaw has around a 3/4 blade on it. It was on it when I bought this bandsaw. I'm a bowl wood turner among other things, and I can't figure out why my material wants to push or twist the bandsaw blade. Thoughts?

😃👍🏻👊🏻

Nicely done, but what if I don't wanna a hole in my circle?

I would have made the base plywood bigger front to back to keep it from “rocking”

If you continue working with power tools without safety glasses , they can call you “ One Eye Wes “.
