The painters’ tape zero clearance insert is a great idea. 👏

This is the fourth or fifth video of how to make thin strips. Wish I had started here first. Nicely done. Tape trick is a bonus!!

Great tip on the zero clearance insert using masking tape. I was getting ready to start making some out of plywood. You saved me a day! ;-)

Works a charm! And my long-experienced spouse was amazed at this tip and others I have learned on Youtube. He'd not thought of using tape for a quick zero clearance. The tape trick also works for a temporary zero clearance insert on a compound miter saw.

Ours does not have a zero clearance, and usually that's not needed. But we are cutting a lot of smaller stuff -- mouldings. I saw this on an old website for finish carpentry and thought, "duh." So I grabbed duct tape, which is what they used. (Note to self, they are now selling duct tape that isn't real duct tape, pay attention in stores from here on out, it's more like a union of duct tape and a colored box tape! And it says "decor" on it! The tape is thin enough that I used two strips layered up to make it more robust.) Extremely helpful for positioning miters!

FINALLY!!! I'm pretty new to tablesawing, and got my saw only a couple of days ago. I have watched hundred's of videos on jigs for thin strips, and making insertplates.. Finally a video with a simple solution on my problems. That tapehack, was THX THX THX!!!

Thank you for your guidance and letting us know the simple method of doing the work. Kindly note that the thickness of a normal tablesaw blade is about 3.2 mm it is possible to use blade of less thickness. For example 6 inch blades are available in 1.8 mm thickness thus one may increase the number of strips per board.

Super helpful, thank you. Especially the tape tip. I was thinking I was going to have to figure out how to make a zero clearance insert. Now I can do that later when I have more time.

I like that it keeps your fingers well away from the blade. Another great video!

Perfect! Great tip to use the masking tape to stop the thin strip from going down beside the blade!
