Finally built this, I’m very much a newbie even though I’ve had a shop in my basement the last 3 years & only tinkered with building only things for organizing the shop. Even though it took about 2.5 hours as I’m very nervous using a router this was simple to make & it works like a charm. Thanks for confidence to build this & I’ve subscribed.

I Love that you did this without expensive t-tracks.

This woman has amazing knoledge and insight on wood working. I enjoy learning from her content.

I love the way Tamar provides some options in her videos for how to work with what you've got and find ways to do things with different tool setups.

[franktaccetta]

It’s really. Cool that you have included two different methods to make this! Very considerate for your followers!
Thanks

That’s such a great message. I think people get turned off by not having the tools that are are marketed to perform a specific task. There truly is always another way! I really dig your channel!

Thank you for the video. I am doing flooring and if you have ever worked on a house you know that nothing is square. I grabbed some double sided tape to get through the two cuts I needed but realized I need need a tapering jig. There are a ton of videos with complicated jig builds but yours is simple and does the job. That’s what I was looking for. I’ll be building this very soon. Oh, it’s cool that you show people without a router table how to build one as well. I have one but I know what it’s like as a bigger without a lot of tools. Thanks again.

Thank you Tamar! ☀ Your insights and guidance are crystal clear! I just built the jig with the exact same parts and it's a blessing for the tapered leg chairs I'm building now. 👍

I built this today with some scrap maple plywood. Works perfectly. Simple and effective jig. Thank you.

[danielconaway]

Built this one last week, too, along with your small crosscut sled, only without the extension -- simple and effective. You are absolutely right: this one does not need a runner, just the saw fence!

[johntartaglia]

Made this jig to substitute for the lack of a jointer and no room for one in my tiny shop. Thanks a bunch. Love your tutorials.

This is such a clever idea. It’s so neat and having the ability to adjust the clamps to the full length is great too.

[georgehyker]

The alternative method using the jigsaw is greatly appreciated!

[Poor_Mans_DIY]

The first jig was nice but I have to agree, your newest jig is much more efficient. Great job as always.

[kencoleman]

I very much enjoy your innovative ideas and "can do" attitude. That is a straightforward and useful jig. Thanks.

[jdgodwin]

I love that you’ve considered other makers who may not have the same tools. Amazingly simple but beautiful.

[kennethpeterson]

Great set up I’m doing one today thanks and I watch you all the time

[maum]

Love when you show different ways of doing something using different tools

[microbi-AL]

As a newbie I keep coming back to your channel. You explain things in a way that is easy to understand but you don't cut corners (no pun intended!). Thank you, and please keep doing what you're doing!

I love your jig videos. This will save me so much money.
