Notching Tips and Techniques #1 A tutorial on holesaw notching - taking the complexity out of creating the perfect notch Available at: shop.chicagobrand.com/product...
The ability to ‘back cut’ (180) becomes increasingly handy as you work with tubing size 1 1/2 and greater. Any size less and you can cut straight through.
the 55° notch was not aligned when you rotated the drill 180, just watching the video you can see that it is not going to be aligned before you even start the second notch, it is at too great an angle. this is contrary to your claims of perfect alignment
If you’re referring to the ever-so-small jog where the cuts meet, then you are correct, it’s not absolutely perfect. But not because the 180 jig is off. We’ll chalk it up to user error! That jog would be perfectly acceptable to most fabricators considering that it’s not off by more than a 1/4 of a degree.
syncnotcher you would need to secure both ends of the guide to prevent flex in it, perhaps some sort of quick release slider with a pivot underneath? imagine kind of like an alternator belt tension bracket with a slot on one end that you can bolt up into your guide rail, if you use a quick clamp like you get on bicycle seats and axles you won't need any extra tools to adjust it either. or even an arced slot in the base plate that follows the radius of the guide with a quick release bolt through.
"Fitment" is a noun meaning fixed piece of furniture or equipment for a specific architectural design. It DOES NOT mean how something is fitted together.
1. (Mechanical Engineering) machinery an accessory attached to an assembly of parts 2. (Furniture) chiefly Brit a detachable part of the furnishings of a room
And there is no "fitment" as used in this video as he's referencing the fit of the pieces together as in, "Notching the tube here and here for a clean fitment." An obvious misuse of the word "fitment" as clarified by the definitions you've provided to make my point. Thanks!
