  One note here is that you should put a featherboard only before your saw blade, so it won't pinch your cut.

  Owning a 3d printer is like owning a lathe. You use it to make more tools for it!

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bktZTYj2ElM&amp;t=772">12:52</a> No. No no. Never rip a thin piece between the fence and the blade. That thin piece is what gets kicked back and the featherboard isn&apos;t touching it so it can do nothing to stop it. Put the large part against the fence with the thin offcut on the outside. You may need to make a thin rip first to true up that edge to parallel to the edge against the fence. &nbsp;If you need to repeat thin strips, Print a thin rip jig. There look to be some good ones. (I haven&apos;t gotten to them yet but are on my shortlist) 👍

  Calipers on the door. Use the piece that comes out the bottom. Push it against the door till it’s the size of the gap.

  I&apos;m so glad you found my mantis clamp worth including in your list :D Your right that the stand part of the clamp is a real tough problem to solve.

  Michael, I echo your thanks to all of those designers who work so hard on creating a model and then releasing it to the public for free. THANK YOU to all those designers, I/we really appreciate your efforts.

  reminded of the cable clamps i made for my housemate to run network cable to the bedrooms of his house (didn&apos;t want to drill holes in walls) so i made them clamp to doorways and walls to keep the cables out the way

  The wood whisper has an article called &quot;Cutting Thin Strips at the Table Saw&quot; which covers various options for doing these cuts safely.
