    Yes, very similar. I just used fixed clamps instead of the t track. Same principle though. One thing that video doesn't mention in that you only need to run one side of the board on the jig. Then, when you have a straight edge from using the jig, you can just use that straight edge against...

    Look up on YouTube a "jointing jig" or "jointing sled" for the table saw. They are very easy to make and will help make very tight joints. (If you have a glue line rip blade for the saw, that helps too, but not necessary). If you live in the Twin Cities, I'd be happy to lend you mine!

    Ideas for Directv users for game

    I know OP said they don't want an antenna, but I have this on the wall behind my TV. Works great, nothing visible & 20+ free channels. Easy solution...

    Landen Akers Appreciation and First TD!

    I saw him open up on that play and screamed at my TV: "get it to Akers! So happy he got one on Senior day... Nobody deserves it more!!!

    I'd highly suggest watching a bunch of videos on YouTube from Steve Ramsey. (Woodworking for Mere Mortals). His videos are great for newer woodworkers. You'll learn a ton of tricks/techniques. He does everything with a pretty basic set of tools too.

    Annual Matt Campbell in demand - 2020 version

    How incredible would it be of CMC followed the road map of Barry Alvarez at Wisconsin. When Alvarez went to Wisconsin, they were a perennial bottom dweller in the B10. He not only won, but changed the program indefinitely and then stayed on after his coaching was done to be the AD. I could...

    Fan reaction compilation video

    While there have been several ISU games that were "go crazy" worthy since 2004, this is the first time Iowa State football has acheived this since 1912. This is in an all new level of accomplishment; more significant than any of those single game euphorias. This is simply a bigger deal (wrt...

    Campbell immediately after the Texas game

    Was going to create a whole new thread for this, but got lazy... Nice read! https://www.heartlandcollegesports.com/2020/11/28/five-reasons-matt-campbell-isnt-leaving-iowa-state-anytime-soon/

    Penalty on Dicker's miss off the upright

    I wonder if that's one of those plays the coaches will submit to the Big XII for a formal review. I don't know the details of the rule, but that seems very suspicious

    Todd McShay taken off air during Wisconsin-Northwestern game

    Oh man. Thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family. McShay is usually very articulate and has an easy delivery. That clip looks like something is clearly not right with him. I hope it's something very minor and he has a quick/full recovery

    I took the time to build a nice router table fence that quickly attaches (clamps) and detaches to my table saw fence. I love the convenience and space-saving feature of my router table in the table saw extension. But, everybody needs to find a solution that works well for them. Definitely...

    Very nice. Not gonna lie, I'm a little jealous! Now you just need about 10 really great jigs and a sweet router table in that extension wing! My all time and favorite and most used jig is this one (I made a couple minor tweaks to my version). So many people build big sleds, which are nice...

    Winter tires - General Thread

    Think maybe you misunderstood. Minnesota has more snow and longer winters than Iowa and even with the harsher winters, I've never had any issues or problems navigating the roads (no accidents, spin outs, etc.) with good A/T tires, as long as there is sufficient tread. If you like your snow...

    Winter tires - General Thread

    Lived in Minnesota nearly my whole life and have never used winter tires. I'm surprised at how many people actually buy and store a 2nd set of tires, especially considering that snow is usually plowed so quickly and completely off the roads within 1-2 days after 95% of snowfalls.
