In part one, I went through the process of how I designed and made my custom DIY joinery sled. As promised, in part 2, I'm taking it out for a spin, demonstrating some basic joins and setup tips I've learnt during testing. The joinery sled has really been a bit of a passion project, I've loved and enjoyed the whole process, and it's definitely something I think I'll keep improving and developing for.
A big thank you to Dainer Made who inspired and pushed me along with this one. Many of the features are a direct result of his input. To all those that have already bought plans a big thank you!
