Memes aside, this video has enough corner clamp ideas that it should probably have a #corner-clamp tag. I would certainly want this in my search results if that is what I was looking for.
The picture frame one makes sense if you're going to make a lot of picture frames. But yeah, it was very much "here's 4 different ways of reinventing the wheel".
On the picture frame glue-up clamp, place blue painter's tape on each of the four arms under the four miter joints before glue up. Otherwise, glue squeeze out on the underside of the picture frame will glue the frame to the clamp's arms and you will not be able to separate the frame from the clamp after the glue dries.
Yes, in fact it stuck a little but not so much that it couldn't be removed, what you say is a good idea. The other option is to use liquid wax so that it does not stick, so if you put a lot of glue it will no longer stick. thank you for that sir
Misleading video title, however, the craftsman that went into creating each project makes an interesting creation of tools made of wood and nails, for woodworking projects involving wood and nails. Sooooo, for that…I think I can forgive you for bringing me here under false pretenses. 🤓
cool stuff, but time is money. the time it took you to make the frame jig "cost" more than an $8 corner ratchet setup from the hardware store......i know, i bought two, they work great and work on quite large items.
It's easy to just buy what you need, especially if it's your profession. Making these things is good wood working practice. As a hobbyist, I appreciate the time spent doing something I like versus trying to turn a hobby into a side hustle. If it's your livelihood, saving the time makes sense unless you're going to mass produce, reusable jigs define process manufacturing.
Is no one going to mention how the first one doesn't fit flush against the right angle... all thpse extra steps to make something that ISNT square. Awesome
Nowhere in relation to making the hinge jig does the video show how the jig cutout was matched to the hinge size! The principle is sound but more time is spent making the jig than would be on the routing, even if done with guides.
There is something specal about an item made of wood against that what is made of metal. Its tactile, the feel is so much closer to the workman's heart. Yes, it may not be perfect first time but you can make it so by attention to detail. Each time you use it it builds up a history of its use, so the tool is part of the end product. If you can make it in wood then throw away the metal.
Great tools you make,- the first one is my favorite,- great idea. But you still use phillips screws?? That is so old school and bad bad. They went out of my workshop 20 years ago,- I only use torx or hex,- never again will I have phillips screws.....
The sad truth is that way less people would watch this video if that was the title. If these jigs can be bought for less than $40 then I would make one of them as shown but I have my doubts. Still, it's an interesting enough video for me since I'm a novice.
Убить пол-дня, дабы смастерить мандулу для привинчивания двух брусков друг к другу... Если у тебя в быту возникла необходимость такой операции - можно прикрутить и на глаз, при достаточном опыте сильно криво не выйдет. А если это промышленное производство - то там и станок специальный можно прикупить, а не лажой этой маяться.
But honestly the concept is sound and I'd definitely prefer that to the contraption that is the 2nd one. I think the problem is more that the faces of the boards being joined weren't square.
nice design, but you will need to put clear tape on all the areas where there is potential glue, otherwise you will glue the jig to the work if you forget to take it out quickly :). that happened to me lol
Lots of 'tools' that hold corner joints square, but only one of them holds the pieces in close fit for gluing. Square corner clamps are a dime-a-dozen but not so common is the items that keep the workpieces TOGETHER, without having to resort to screws
