Nice article of different jigs for the table saw

The half sheet crosscut sled is a nice build. The thinsheet jig is a bit fancier than I would make one.

Once fancy lego sorter

This one is pretty amazing. This is one big lego sorter (made of legos of course). It uses AI to id and find new lego parts to add to its category. https://www.ubergizmo.com/2019/12/lego-sorter-uses-neural-network/?utm_source=mainrss

Cool jig for pattern holes on a drill press

Nice idea. Me…I just use pegboard on the board to do the holes.

Making some simple tablesaw jigs

Nice builds overall, some are for better cuts (lining up the fence for example). Others are for some nice push sticks. I like the build for the side feather board (and thin strip maker).

crazy build for an automated hacksaw

This is a funny build to watch. The author went thru alot of work to make a power hacksaw. Me…The amount of work he put in he could have gone to Harbor Frieght and bought the cheap portable bandsaw. https://www.homemadetools.net/forum/homemade-power-hacksaw-76474?homelistings#post147033

Make your own metal chain sprockets

Not so sure I would do this myself. The author makes his own sprockets from a piece of sheet metal. Impressive to watch.
