Yes! Thank you I've looked everywhere for clear instructions on how to make a bevel cut and this video ticks all the boxes. I'm a beginner in woodworking and needed this to understand how to make my bevels. Thanks!!
Hi, I have a number of 13" sq mdf boards half inch thick and I need to bevel the edges to make boxes. Would I be able to achieve a 13 inch cut with this type of saw?
I just done some of my baseboards and I started by making beveled cut on end and flipped and spun board to get the cut in same direction for corner and make it where ur cutting from ur longest point on board on top so u can more accurately measure I was using trial and error but I have a dual bevel dewalt 12 in saw and with the original blade and with a avanti pro fine finish blade both never used till now it was burning wood any one know why am I doing something wrong it is 8 in tall I think poplar wood
Two things could be the problem, first is the blade, how many teeth 60 or 80 is a must for finish work and quality of blade, Avanti is a thin and not really good blade. The DeWalt blade that comes with the saw is also low quality(that’s how they save some money) try a Freud or CMT orange. Second is the speed of cut, if you go to slow, you will experience burning
@@AnthonyScolaro1 it's a 80 tooth blade and it is finish blade the only reason I got it cuz it said on it that it's is made by dibalo and it's the next step down as far as quality
@@braddalton9260 trust me, years of experience and 100’s of blades, Avanti is not good enough quality for fine finish. Try a better blade and watch your feed rate on the cut.
Ok thanks for info I'm a mechanic but have been getting into wood working more and more I ordered the cmt blade I'm learning to router and I got a milwaukee router m18 for trim what brand of blades are good I have 2 Diablo bits for it so far what would u recommend and all my milwaukee tools have been great the battery jigsaw circle say both m12 and m18 the multi tool is best one on market does cmt make good blades for jig saw and circular saw to
I tried this method today for the miter, but I'm having troubles with the quality of cut, I'm not sure if there is is flexing in the blade or what not, but midway though the cut there seems to be like a dip. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? maybe the quality of the saw isn't that good? I'm not sure. i make sure that it's firm to the fence, and it seems square, other than that dip
very good.. so are bevel cuts another way to make miter cuts both are 45s and the two ends add to 90 .? You did to basically overcome the width of the board hitting the blade guard issue. Thx much.
There are a few things to check in this case, first you have to calibrate your machines. Setting the miter saw and tables saw to 45 without proper setting up of the tool will cause you to be off. Also, you have to make sure the squares (combination or angle gauges, digital gauges etc...) are 100% accurate that you are using to calibrate the machines. If you haven’t spent some serious time calibrating the set up of those machines, your cuts will never be perfect. Lastly, if that all checks out, I’d start looking at the machines, are they quality or cheap, the blades also can be a problem if they are not quality because cheap thin blades tend to flex. And finally the operator, check your feed rate of the material through the cut, are you moving too fast? Too slow? Or is the workpiece not secure and wandering off during the cut. I hope this helps, unfortunately I don’t know what you are working with. There are thousands of factors that could be causing the problem.
I notice when you are making those 45 deg bevel cuts you make a few passes b4 finishing the cut. Is it because it makes a more accurate cut? I head saw blade can flex during bevel cute and that can make inaccurate angle. Great video!
@robertgrlic6505 I do that for a few reasons. This is Red oak, so it’s very hard and can cause the blade to flex. Also by making several passes in hardwood, it helps to prevent burning of the blade and wood. You can also creep up on the cut this way as well.
@@AnthonyScolaro1 Do you have any video or a pic of Jig that you will use to cut Any angle more than 45 degrees ? My mitra saw only cut upto 45 . I am after a bevel mitra cut . Simple mitra cut i can make a jog , but not sure how to do for bevel mitra cut please
