16. July 2011 at 3:40 pm
Where will I get that kind of huge clamps?
16. July 2011 at 3:45 pm
wow , you just answered ALL my questions and I can’t believe it’s that simple, all I need now is 10 clamps
16. July 2011 at 4:08 pm
um.. just set the saw fence to 1/8th or 3-4mm .. ? works fine for me and definetly more efficient then moving the fence closer after every cut… and.. cut teeth for clamps into bottom of template part, keeps clamps much better in place. just tips from own experience
16. July 2011 at 4:08 pm
@solidarity2205 He didn’t bend the first piece. It was cut out in that shape.
16. July 2011 at 4:36 pm
I have a serious question, how did he bend the first piece of wood which he uses as the base to bend the second one??
16. July 2011 at 4:46 pm
He is soooo hoot, I love the way he plays with his woody stuff.
16. July 2011 at 5:09 pm

16. July 2011 at 5:37 pm
@clipmaster30001 ya i usually dont like those ppl either but i always c ppl getting a million for saying something dumb and thought id give it a shot
16. July 2011 at 6:35 pm
However, by adjusting the fence each time you are relying on how accurately you can move the fence. A hair too much or too little will result in uneven thicknesses in your strips. By cutting with the thin strips against you ensure that every strip is exactly the same and you never have to move the fence. It is not any more dangerous to do so if you use a push-stick properly, people just get scared to put their hand over the blade.
Don’t use a table saw if you are afraid of it…
