The video “You Need To Make This Now || Ultimate Table Saw Upgrade” is by Bourbon Moth Woodworking. In this engaging tutorial, Jason demonstrates how to construct a versatile table saw fence jig that can perform a variety of woodworking tasks, including cutting raised panels, bridal joints, and more.

Jason kicks off the project by emphasizing the flexibility and capabilities of this table saw jig. It’s designed to handle a wide range of cuts, making it an essential tool for any woodworker. With pre-order plans available and future sales of the jig itself, users have options for both DIY enthusiasts and those looking for a ready-made solution.
Getting Started
To begin, Jason takes measurements from his SawStop table saw fence, ensuring the jig fits perfectly. He uses Baltic birch plywood, cutting it down to size to create a box that will slide over the existing fence. The design includes a taller side to prevent friction as it moves smoothly over the fence.
Building the Jig
Next, Jason assembles the jig. He mentions the importance of aesthetics, rounding over edges and sanding everything to a smooth finish. Using CA glue for initial assembly allows him to adjust the pieces before securing them with screws.
Creating the Face Component
After ensuring the jig slides correctly, he focuses on the face component, initially considering Baltic birch but ultimately opting for a stylish black melamine. He carefully cuts the melamine to size and adds rounded edges to prevent chipping.
Adding Adjustability
To make the jig more versatile, Jason incorporates adjustable features. He utilizes toilet seat hinge hardware for micro-adjustments, allowing the jig to fit various table saws. After some clever modifications, he ensures everything fits snugly and securely.
Final Touches
With the main structure complete, Jason adds T-tracks to the melamine surface for hold-down clamps, enhancing the jig’s functionality. He emphasizes the importance of preventing chipping while cutting the tracks and shows how to do it effectively.
Using the Jig
Once assembled, the jig allows for precise cuts, including angled bridal joints and raised panels. Jason demonstrates how to set up for these cuts, showcasing the jig’s ease of use. The results are impressive, with perfectly fitting joints that indicate the jig works as intended.
Conclusion
Jason expresses his excitement about the jig’s performance, highlighting its effectiveness in achieving high-quality cuts. He encourages viewers to either make their own or sign up for pre-orders of the plans. The video wraps up with a light-hearted note, reminding viewers to enjoy their woodworking journey.
