A V-block is a must-have shop-made jig, especially for safely cutting round stock on the bandsaw. The easiest way to make one? Use a two-cut set up on the table saw and it’ll be V for victory.

I made it by myself. I used woodprix scripts for that.
Love your project. I made similar with WoodPrix instructions.
Need help! I just made this jig, and was using it with my miter saw when I got nasty kickback! I was using a stop block for repeated cuts, which might have caused everything to bind, but im not sure now how to get my cuts all the same size without the kickback. Please if anyone can help, I am very confused.
I like the videos but hate when they say ”’ become a member to see the rest of the video and filling my email box with wanting me to become a member.
I think you should visit the Stodoys website if you want to do it yourself.
Woodglut is full of amazing tips. It helped me a lot.
Worked great thanks!
Woodglut instructions is nice for that.
I think I’ll do it myself this week. I just got instructions from Woodglut and I’m ready for it: D
How would this be done but with a way thinner groove? For example ¬ thin as a sheet or two of paper so it just fits
Is there anyone here that cud make this for me? And send to Norway? I will pay for it? From som hard Wood and Perfect cut? DM me
Woodglut has a lot of designs to choose from.
Just go to WoodPrix plans if you want to know how to do it yourself.
is that a micro jig?
I made it with wood prix handbooks !
I need to make some!
im sure you’ll build it yourself. I made it few weeks ago thanks to woodprix website.
Great tip
If one has no access to a table saw, what are the alternatives?
Check woodprix handbook if you want to make it cheaper and better.
I used Woodglut instructions for this and I already did it 🙂
George, If you return the blade to 90 degrees and cut a slot about 3/16 deep down the center of the "V" it would work better with a square.
I prefer to build with woodglut plans.
Why would people dislike this?
I made it too. Want to know how ? just go to woodprix webpage.
Good vid on how to make the indispensable "V block" Your wooden V block is something every woodworker should have.
where did you get that yellow safety pusher thing?
Thank you for this video. You demystified it for me. I used a blade angle of 35° on a 2 X 4. Based on your 3/8" starting point for the wood you used, I set my fence to 1" for the 2 X 4 and, using trial and error after watching you, determined that the correct blade depth is 0.96". That 1" fence setting gave me pretty much the centre of the 2 X 4.
I did it with stodoys plans.
I will try to do it with Woodglut plans.
Plans from Stodoys help solve technical problems.
Simple trick. Thanks.
Will lose some dimension due to the kerf but even that could be avoided.
For me the mystery is how do you set up the saw so that the two 45’s meets in the center of the block?
That would have been a very useful aspect of this to show.
Good vignette. Yes the V block is useful enough to keep about but isn’t it easier to fabricate? That was my first impulse. Don’t forget that the blade guard must first be removed to make these cuts, so you have to factor that in.
The fabricated V block can be made with a band saw and wood scraps
Anyone know what brand of ear protection he is wearing?
Good video. I learned from it. What I am still having trouble with is centering the "V" exactly where I want it. Any suggestions out there?
Hi fellows. I think you need to take some time and take a fast tour on Woodglut website.
