Very super, and simple Serge. I’ve gotta make a more permanent circle cutter this size. This looks like it will work very ez

thanks for a great simple jig idea

-- Measure "at least" twice and cut once

Thanks for idea, I just wanted to build one and trying to find the best and easiest one.

Thank you, guys for your comments. I was sure someone would like its simplicity. I’m planning to make another band saw circle cutting jig, similar to the one Norm Abram (New Yankee Workshop) built, but even easier to build than his.

@Ken90712: Have a great weekend too Buddy. On my side every day is weekend! And most of the time a Saturday! :-)

Best,

Serge

If you search shopnotes circle jigs—there is on that I built awhile back that’s a spitting image of this one—also has a built in tape measure and knobs that hold it to the bandsaw table. I think you can get the plan from plansnow for $4.95. It is a great jig! The biggest thing is to have a really sharp blade and let it do the cutting.

@apkitz: Thanks for sharing the idea of adding a tape measure and a knob. That should greatly improved my humble jig. Too bad it’s not on your projects gallery so we could see it!

Best,

Serge
