Band Saw V-Block

By: Phil Huber
Cutting odd-shaped parts always poses an interesting challenge. That said, this V-jig will certainly help when it comes to long workpieces.

The jig cradles the piece, and it works well for a few different operations. Two cleats are mounted on a hardboard base to create the V. A notch into the jig separates the narrow cleat and allows room for the band saw’s blade. The jig gets taped to the fence, and the V supports pieces of most any shape.

The V-jig works well for any odd-shaped pieces, such as when notching or ripping dowels too.
