Amazing Technique for jigsaw circle cutting jig

Amazing Technique for jigsaw circle cutting jig

With this jigsaw circle cutting jig idea you DON’T have to drill a hole to insert the jigsaw blade to cut the wooden circle. So, with this woodworking idea we will cut perfect wooden circles with no marks in the edge. Cutting circles with a jigsaw is quite easy, and making a woodworking jig to cut circles is also very easy, and now, with this woodworking technique those wood circles will have a perfect and clean edge.

A similar woodworking trick also helps to cut a perfect oval (watch this video in my new channel):

    Good job👍👍👍👍👍 amazing idea 🤜🤛

    Beautiful! I have not seen a BETTER idea than this for cutting circles. I planned to make 3 side tables with circular tops, so now I have the best solution. Thanks. SUBSCRIBING!



  4. DN on June 10, 2023 at 12:50 pm

    By far I think this is the best cutting a circle I have seen. Thanks – How did you attach the jigsaw?



  5. Simon Vaughan on June 10, 2023 at 12:56 pm

    Simple yet ingenious. I’ll use this myself. Than you!

    I like that awsome i made a lazy susan and all i have is a skilsaw jigsaw and a sander i can see a small wobble i was thinking of securing my sand and the susan to the bench and just spin it till she’s round



  7. Gerry GOLDER on June 10, 2023 at 1:00 pm

    Good and simple works well



  8. Donald Adams on June 10, 2023 at 1:00 pm

    Just what I needed. It works a treat so well done. Don Adams

    Beautifully executed my friend! Very clever! TYFS! 💘💘💘

    Good Job!



  13. Clem McGuinness on June 10, 2023 at 1:04 pm

    Nice work



  14. Prabu P on June 10, 2023 at 1:07 pm

    Super



  15. Cooper C on June 10, 2023 at 1:07 pm

    This is brilliant! It makes a perfect circle! Way better than drilling a pilot hole to insert the jig saw blade.



  16. SAHBfan on June 10, 2023 at 1:07 pm

    This is clever! But I think it could work for holes as well? If the extra pin was placed between the main pivot and the saw, the saw would swing inside the circle instead of outside. Using the same ‘line up the line’ technique and switch pins should then give you a perfect hole?



  17. J. Mark Lane on June 10, 2023 at 1:07 pm

    Ten thumbs up! Great idea!



  18. MC on Gmail on June 10, 2023 at 1:08 pm

    Thank you! This is a great idea.



  19. David Robinson on June 10, 2023 at 1:10 pm

    just brilliant – would never have thought of that



  20. Michael Moffett on June 10, 2023 at 1:10 pm

    Excellent job great idea



  21. Michael McNally on June 10, 2023 at 1:12 pm

    Wonderful idea! I am going to try this right now. Thank you.



  22. seb4242 on June 10, 2023 at 1:13 pm

    Clever entry technique — nice work!



  23. C R on June 10, 2023 at 1:14 pm

    The radius guide is an old trick. I use one with my router to cut large circles. The entry trick is new to me, though.

    For cutting an inside circle, put the temporary screw between the radius center and the blade. You’ll need to drill a hole to start the cut, but it will be clean, just like his outside cut.



  24. Troy Downs on June 10, 2023 at 1:15 pm

    Thank you, you just saved me from having to try and convince my wife to let me get another expensive tool.



  25. isfbuster on June 10, 2023 at 1:17 pm

    Great idea mate, subbed



  26. robert rivera on June 10, 2023 at 1:18 pm

    Amazing! Thank you I am about to try this to replace rounds on my barstools. Thank you for making this video. New sub!!!



  27. Laurel Conrad on June 10, 2023 at 1:19 pm

    Do you have instructions for making your jig? I’m a newbie.



  28. Know Expert on June 10, 2023 at 1:19 pm

    Simple and effective, new sub…. Know Expert



  29. YetiAdventures on June 10, 2023 at 1:22 pm

    Drill your start hole on the outside of the your circle on the waste piece of wood lol.



  30. Eugene Claveria on June 10, 2023 at 1:24 pm

    Im surprise how clean the cut was. What blade did you use?



  31. Joshua D on June 10, 2023 at 1:26 pm

    How do you set the jig saw in the board like this?



  32. john collins on June 10, 2023 at 1:26 pm

    Ingenious!



  33. SamuelLanghorn on June 10, 2023 at 1:26 pm

    hmm, does not work for me. the blade is too flexible. I am creating nice spirals 🙁
    must be an operator error 🙂



  34. Gyanbhai FF on June 10, 2023 at 1:27 pm

    भैया जो तुम बता रहे हैं और बहुत जमाने पहले एसआरएन उसके आजमा चुका हूं वैसे आईडिया तुम्हारा बुरा नहीं है तुमने रिक्शा से कट किया है सर्कल और हमने कटर मशीन से 1mm का फर्क नहीं कट किया है अभी बहुत सर्कल



  35. Doug Cross on June 10, 2023 at 1:27 pm

    Thank you. I just used this for the first time I ever cut a circle. It saved me so much trouble.



  36. Joël Dupont on June 10, 2023 at 1:28 pm

    very good technique !! thanks a lot !!, i have an idea with your technique and make an economic bowl with the jig saw in 45° , with your technique it’s better only one cut by circle and more easy to glue with perfection !! thanks a lot , you are genius 😉 , i prepare a chrismas balls ( Christmas ornament ) with your technique to make ball of wood !! 😉



  37. Bo Brahim on June 10, 2023 at 1:29 pm

    When I tried this the more I go in cutting the blade gets tilted and the circumference of the circle gets smaller !!!!????



  38. jrom hek on June 10, 2023 at 1:29 pm

    Brilliant .



  39. Gordon Rogers on June 10, 2023 at 1:29 pm

    much better way to start without leaving a notch on the circle



  40. Smote Reverser on June 10, 2023 at 1:30 pm

    Even the offcut looks super useful. Imagine putting the second screw at the 4 cardinal points you would have some nice cams or spacers!



  41. Gregory Gibbons on June 10, 2023 at 1:32 pm

    How do you make the jig???



  42. hooptastic_hippie 852 on June 10, 2023 at 1:33 pm

    Genius



  43. Ellie Costello on June 10, 2023 at 1:36 pm

    Let me tell you something, kind sir. That was amazing and so simple. I have to give you credit, you are genuinely a smart guy



  44. Ian Watkins on June 10, 2023 at 1:36 pm

    Cracking! Just used this to cut a circle and it was spot on. Thank you!



  45. Creamdoor Music School on June 10, 2023 at 1:36 pm

    Thank you teacher



  46. John Colgan on June 10, 2023 at 1:38 pm

    Great process, looks like you can reglue the outer ring with an invisible joint too



  47. Collin Courtois on June 10, 2023 at 1:38 pm

    Brilliant video. Thank you very much.



  48. Jose Silveira on June 10, 2023 at 1:39 pm

    Very clever, even brilliant solution! Thanks for posting it!



  49. Craig Cowley on June 10, 2023 at 1:41 pm

    That’s great. Off in the garage tomorrow to make one
