Blacktail Studio Bow Tie Jig, How To

Step by step video on how to use the Blacktail Studio bow tie jig

Just received my jigs yesterday. Thanks for taking to time to do a "how to" video. Can't wait to use them.

Ordered mine a few days ago and appreciate the “how-to”. I’m thinking of making these for Christmas presents to be worn like a normal bow-tie 😂

I've had the jig since it came out and love it, but I have a recommendation. Make a series of 3 jig plates where all the bowties are the same size. That way I can cut a series of bowties that are the same size without having to move the jig.

Hey Cam, we find the plastic snap on lidded boxes from Indian restaurant takeaways are great for keeping sanding dust…and when you open them you get a smell of spices and wood. Win win

I think it’s funny how in some of your videos you state how you’re pushing 40 years old, and how it’s difficult for you as a one-man shop to move your builds around. But all I could see this entire video was how ripped you are. Btw great work and great clear video.

Nice and simple. Informative as always. Love your work. 👍🏻

[frogpondfarms]

This was awesome! Most videos just assume you know how to use the jigs. Thanks for the info.

Not what I was expecting when I clicked on a Johnny sins “How to”

[garygrimes]

I like as a pro you show your message & how to fix it 👍🏻

[markcummins]

I bought the template and love it. Makes it simple and quick.

You can also add some glue around the edges when you sand to fill any gaps.

Hey Cam, I have your jig, and can't wait to use it. My question, though, what are the calipers you are using? I love the fact they display fractions!

This is a fantastic jig, and rockler ships to Hungary! The only problem is that the shipping is more expensive than the starter set. :( As a hobbyst this is too much for me. The only way for me is to make a bleuprint from scratch and find a turner to make one for me.

Great video. I was wondering if you ever put a dovetail in and sand it flush and smooth and then a few days later you can feel the edges of the dovetail?

[kandiecandelaria]

Cant wait to try mine! Great how to video

[jimcastino]

I really love your bow tie jig! BUT….it would be so much more efficient and useful if it have multiple cutouts for the same size bow tie! I just used it to make a bunch of bow ties for a really great looking live edge table….but doing these one….at….a….time….takes forever. Wish you would offer a larger template with multiple cutouts.

You should make a jig to make chess or checker boards. Walnut with black epoxy and a Rubio finish. You could use either inlays or epoxy. If you do not have that jig are there companies to will do polycarbonate or lexan on a cnc machine?

[garygrimes]

If use normal superglue to harden fast use backing powder

Does the bowtie jig help with improving my bicep vascularity to be more like yours? If so, I'll take 2, one for each bicep. All seriousness... great video and very helpful!

Hey Cam, loved the video. Will be ordering my jig shortly. Can you tell me where you got the lumber racks on the wall? Thanks
