This one-off designed bandsaw circle cutting jig let's you make perfect circles of any size without drilling holes in your work, leaves little-to-no tear-out, and is ready for use in a matter of seconds.
I had to think long and hard on this one, as I wasn't satisfied with "the same old" jig. Most set-ups have a sliding dovetail type arm that comes out to the side and provides little support for the workpiece. Most of them require drilling a hole in the work piece as well, which I'm not fond of either. This compact design enables me to cut perfect circles of any size on the bandsaw without all the other compromises and it works AMAZING!
I had to figure out how to drill a hole in the middle of a dowel to make the adjustment knob, I show how I did that here - • How to DRILL A HOLE in...

I built a version of your circle cutting jig and it works amazingly well! Thanks for the video! My version has 4 changes that I think improved utility: - I made the center adjustin knob less than 1/2" tall. Then I only drilled 1/2" through the donut. This change provided more surface area for double stick tape. - I used a MATCHFIT Dovetail Track Hardware® nut to help prevent maring of the dovetail track when the center knob is tightened - I extended my sled to the back of the bandsaw table where I put a stop that wraps around to the bottom of the table. This prevents tipping of the jig whe cutteing large circles. - My cut-depth stop is a full 3/4 thick and extends all the way to the bottom of the table. Thiss allowed me to use a threaded insert and a knob (or just a bolt) to act as a depth adjuster so that i can fine tune the depth of cut in case the saw blade shifts when it's replaced. To make room for the adjuster the base of the jig has to be ~1/2 inch wider than the table and the dovetail track need to be cut 1/4" behind the blade edge.. I also added two nuts on either side of the stop to make sure the adjustment doesn't change accidentally.

Haven't gotten a bandsaw as of yet but curiosity for this jig led me in. Coincidentally was watching an unrelated build video where the piece was secured with several screws. Brilliant thinking "around" that problem. Saving this video and subscribing.

@danielbaggett6283 5 лет назад

Who in their right mind would dislike this great idea. Excellent use of gray matter!! Excellent job!

@stuartgraham4052 4 года назад

Hi, I've had this video bookmarked for a while now as I was very impressed with the concept. Having just bought larger bandsaw and now being under lockdown due to the Corona Virus in the UK.I Have just completed the project! Had to make a few mods on the way to suit what I had available but still very impressed.

@alknis 5 лет назад

Great job. I just started thinking how to do it, and here is your video. Special thanks for the mounting method in the center of the circle, without drilling details. I myself could not guess. I need it. Большое спасибо.

@fredbeck5545 5 лет назад

Went ahead and made this jig with two mods. Cut a T slot instead of dovetail, and extended the base to use both tracks on my bandsaw table. Great video, great jig. Works great.

@InspireWoodcraft 5 лет назад

That's awesome! I used the dovetail because I had it, and I was trying to just use stuff I already had. But I did wish I had a slot cutter when I made it. Glad it worked out for you!

@fredbeck5545 5 лет назад

@@InspireWoodcraft I also learned that what tape is used can be important. Especially on big circles. Ended up adding two screws in the doughnut for a 30" circle. Worked great

@johnnywest5445 5 лет назад

Great idea. Just what I was thinking of designing myself. You saved me so much time, trial and error with this video. I think one way to handle the stability would be to use a Rockler Universal Fence Clamp on the end to the left of the blade. You could also make it longer on that end and use a 'T' bolt in the other miter slot to hold it down similarly to the way feather boards are secured. Or perhaps even rig up a magswitch to hold it down. I already have the Rockler clamps, so may go that route.

@dogcarp4847 Год назад

I love how you made one that doesn't leave a mark or hole on one side of the wood - most do. Great job.

@hcongthanh 4 года назад

Great idea! The advantage is no hole on the round piece when finished. In addition, much more accuracy and almost no tear out!Thanks!

@db2201 5 лет назад

Brilliant, this is the best thing I've ever seen!. And for the wobble when you are cutting larger pieces make extend the jig and add a second connection in the other track to lock it down then you don't have to add a leg to support it.

@paoluccisallingmartin6827 5 лет назад

such a great tutorial-- i doubted myself, but viewed this many times and had the confidence to try it and it was easier than i thought- and i not only was able to build the jig, but i created a stunning round jewel box for my wife-- i really appreciate the time you took to educate me - thank you.

@nkatabaraulu9328 5 лет назад

Bravo! Hope your wife loves the box. But like how much did cost to get the machine?

@chemcody5119 5 лет назад

I like your approach on this. On mine I added an adjustment to the front stop so the sled can be moved back or forward for blade alignment. Your overall design is superior to the jig I use now so I may have to build another based on yours. Thanks for sharing.

You sir are looking in too my future! I have saved this because I intend to begin manufacturing a product that will need circles.

@peregrine1970 5 лет назад

Definitely nice looking and the only improvement I could think would be to extend it on the inside to make use of that other track on the inside for a secondary runner. That would offer a bit more stability without having to prop the jig up I would think.

@lawrencehincker8652 4 года назад

Well done. I use a similar jig but it uses a pin where each hole located every inch from the next. So I am limited to whole inch increments on the radius. This is ingenious. In addition to not drilling a hole on the bottom of the work piece, you can have an infinitely variable radius to get whatever size circle you want.

@KeithOlson 5 лет назад

Cool build! One option that you might want to consider is to put the nut in the dovetail into a piece of wood that has a pin sticking up that would align with a measuring tape glued beside the dovetail. That way, you can easily set a radius of (for example) 17 5/32 if you needed it.

I used 1/4 x 20 carriage bolt in the adjustment knob and was having trouble with the nut not getting enough traction in the dove tail track for the knob to tighten. I switched the standard nut to a barrel nut on the 1/4 x 20 bolt and now the jig works great!

@barbarianatgate2000 3 года назад

Jodie, Love your circle cutting Jig. I just found you and subbed. One way to prevent your jig from tipping is to use two fence clamps from your table saw and drill holes into the edge of your jig and use those to clamp to your base of the bandsaw.

@InspireWoodcraft 5 лет назад

Interesting idea, thanks! The rocking hasn't been an issue at all thank goodness.
