How to Make a Spline Sled 

Great video Peter - every day’s a School Day - Thank you! 👍

Hi Peter, Handy to have in the workshop, well built and easy to use for the spline cuts. A good build project, great video Take care

Very nice project, I like the large board that keeps the blade covered.

Good evening Peter thanks for the video. Interesting project.

I made my jig to ride on the fence so I can set the distance and get nice repeatability. You can also tape over the area to be cut and then install the spline and then peel off the tape, keeping the box clean. I make up the spline stock in batches once I get the thickness dialed in. Sometimes I tamp them down a bit with a hammer on a flat surface if they are a bit tight. The glue swells them back up.

Very useful. Thanks

Thanks for the video. What I normally do is to paint the danger zone a bright colour and make the jig wider so i can clamp the project to it so i only need to be concerned about pushing it

Peter Excellent jig. And … what is your giant clamp? AdS

As much as I like my Kapex, I wouldn't consider to use it to cut splines that size. Since I have to saw them for size when they are settled anyway I could easily saw those by hand to rough size, or even break them.

Very Interesting Peter. Before 35 yrs ago; I bought a jig like yours. Wow, I could have not wasted the money; IF I had built one just like yours. Oh well. In any case....we ❤ what you do kind Sir, always. Thank you. Ooops...I meant "Cherio". Oh well! 🥲
