That was really easy. So many of these jigs require like 10 tools. If I had them, I wouldn't need a cross cut jig for a circular saw. Thanks for this.

You just made my life much easier with this video . Takes away the head ache of trying to buy all power tools at once. Thank you

Excellent Ida for crosscut jig, and well explained. Thank you from England🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

A safe, economical and clearly presented video for a person like me who is a beginner at woodworking with power tools, thank you.

Thanks Colin.
I was able to build the Crosscut jig with old piece of 3/8" plywood. Just added some glue, a few 5/8" staples, a piece of 1" x 2" and 3 wood screws. I do not have the space for a sliding miter saw. I usually cut my long boards outside on an old picnic table using a 12" speed square as a guide. The jig will make it easier to clamp the work down and get good square cuts,

Collin, you do an excellent job of explaining the many aspects of woodworking. I have leaned that if I want to learn something or get great ideas, I can count on your no nonsense and professional presentations. Thanks so much!!!

Awesome tip with the cross cut jig. I've always used a speed square (orange triangle) in the past but every once in a while it moves during the cut or the saw deviates from being tight up against it ruining the cut and sometimes the whole piece. Having that extra piece on the bottom allows me to square things up AND clamp if need be to use both hands on the saw. Thanks. Faster, simpler and haven't botched a cut since. Great channel!

This will make angled cuts SO MUCH EASIER! Thank you very much for saving me money and aggravation

[wendywu]

This is just perfect for me! I will just use my circular to cut or rip cut my hard wood floor material in future! Ty and I love your video instruction and the speed you talk! You can be great instructor for high school kids

Great video. I’ve been in construction for about 26 years and finally had a freak run in with my circular saw. Fortunately everything was reattached. I’m going back to the basics a building a bunch of jigs and fences and keeping them in rotation.

[neilfurby]

Nicely explained, just covered what was needed. thanks

Liking all the videos

[Frambusjt]

Great video. I like that unlike every other saw guide video, you need nothing else than the circular saw.

[barnegatbaywoodworks]

Learn something new every time I watch your videos

Buen trabajo como siempre lo felicito, usted es uno de los mejores maestros de ebanísteria que haya visto, muy humilde y buena gente. Good job as always I congratulate you, you are one of the best woodworking teachers I have ever seen, very humble and a nice person. I can see that you care about your students ... Muchas gracias...

[catldy]

Thank you for this video! I've never been that comfortable with a circular saw so these jigs will make life easier (and safer!) for me!

[socalboilervsg]

Very helpful and much cheaper than buying specialty jigs and accessories from the store. One of the most often-used jigs in my shop and for projects since I don't like hauling long, cumbersome 2x stock over to my miter saw. Easier just to grab the cross-cut jig and cut it where it sits.

[mkoop]

I was trying to figure out how to do this in my head and happened to stumble on your video, solved all my problems!
