Показать описание
For absolutely perfect table saw joinery you need a blade-width shim! This is a great way to make shims, for any thickness of blade, without even measuring the blade. This would also work great for cutting splines for mitered corners.

NEED A BLADE THAT LEAVES A FLAT BOTTOM? CHECK THESE OUT:
(Please keep in mind that I do not own and have not used the less expensive blades. But these are Flat Tooth Grind ripping blades and at a much lower cost. It's good to have options!)

Literally said "THAT IS FREAKING GENIUS!" as I saw you doing it. The simplest trick and yet I never would've thought of it, definitely using this one!

Awesome, another really great thing you have shown again. Your videos are always tight, well edited, clear voice, no silly music to distract, pure fun creative learning right there. Thank you again for excellence, Jim Tree

As a newbie, I’m not ready to have my hands that close to the blade with unsecured (2) pieces of wood. But with a crosscut sled and some hold down clamps...
I’m enjoying the real life measuring videos. Thx.

Ah, those three little words so many people seem to have so much trouble saying: “I was wrong.”

Genius. I love the "perfect cut with no measuring" theme. Subscribed!

This is quite possibly one of the most useful woodworking tip vids I've ever seen. As I'm certain several people mention below, this is the perfect way to cut key strips for keyed/splined miter joints. I wish I'd have known this technique - it would have saved me literal hours (and a lot of nice walnut) trying to dial in the 'perfect' spline thickness.

Last night I watched your previous video on the half lap. I thought to myself... He needs to show how to make a kerf wide shim to match the blade thickness. Voila! You did it and kudos!!! Love it! Good on ya!

That's probably the quickest and simplest way to cut shims. Love it.
