This looks like a simple little jig to help making mortises at the drill press. Assuming you have a drill press table that will accept the jig. Click the image for a detailed diagram.
Ed Stiles
I’d like to see more videos from this guy. From the looks of his shop in the background I’m sure he’s got quite a few lessons to tell. Very organized. In this video he shows his box joint jig.

Dema’s WoodShop
Anyone with a lathe can take advantage of this easy disk sander. Super easy project and he’s got free plans available as well.

Although this was made specifically for a Shapeoko 3 CNC machine it would be a great shop cabinet for just about anything you want to put on top of it. And because the top is a tortion box it should remain very flat. He’s also got a video covering the build. (click the image)
Modern Builds
I just found this channel and really like what I see so far. Mike shows us in this video how he made a pretty big dog house.
The Reclaimed Wood Shop
Although this was from back in July I’d like to nominate this one for video of the week. You’ve got to see this video. Tons of amazing editing.

Contrary to the title this isn’t much of a shop tour. It is, however, a great shop talk conversation in a very nice shop. Definitely worth the watch if you haven’t seen it already.
Kyle Toth
Kyle has definitely carved out a unique style for himself (<—see what I did there?). I still find it amazing that he started out editing his videos on an iPod. I’m not sure what his inspiration was for these but I’m instantly reminded of Mario boxes.
Carl Jacobson
I’m blown away at what this man can make on a lathe. This is an absolute work of art. If you’re looking to get into lathe turning this is the guy you need to subscribe to.
Wefi Surfboards
Vimeo sure does have some beautiful videos. This one is a short clip featuring cedar surfboards.
Always good stuff, thanks. Great look with the new logo too.
The Reclaimed Woodshop is fantastic. So well made.
Second that!
You always keep me inspired rather it’s your work or someone else’s. Thanks Jay!
Was that your conduit lumber rack in Nicks workshop?
How would it be to have a shop the size of the Reclaimed Woodshop.
The Ed Stiles video is great. He really explains the whole process, even though the jig is already built.
