Wide Know How...2008!  
Productivity is a tough concept sometimes...but know-how fixes things, 
 and productivity and ingenuity will always mean a surplus and an abundance.  

 

 Now, the Video/DVD is sold
individually.  The same one currently included 
only with the Mascut 1.0 

The following is for the ones who have idle time, idle 
machines or boredom. 

Wide thinking-Rated...

 

New business often activity takes a lot of  pomp and pull, wacky behavior, 
wacky things, clowns and cheering and lot's and lot's of encouragement in the beginning. It takes American-like big ideas and individualism.  It takes promotion to keep going, even  drums, and parades, juggling and gallantry. Read about  the theme park like "Country Stores" ideas where a small community can even take away some of the customers at the "Big Box" stores where all the traffic goes.

Here goes.  Many are not "wide thinking" so it may be the time America starts whining.

In seven years I have probably only built 25-30 Mascuts.  Everybody who 
discovered the Mascut jig  between 2001-2008,  who came upon the story about this extraordinary device got theirs, and then kept quiet, probably quite proud of themselves for their distinction.  Most people have ordered the Minnie Cut, my other jig for box joints,  probably because I never got very affective in communicating and marketing the Mascut.   I have spent more time adding to this website, writing manuals and technical materials, and various other projects than anything else. 

This website is about 100 pages in volume, but this story has a little more focused persuasion about the Mascut, and anyone struggling with the fact that we have idle machines everywhere with little knowledge 
about there larger scope of uses.  Also, read below about how local festivals and markets work.  

Here goes. It is time America starts whin_ng. 

That's right start whin_ng, loathing, real grieving and reckoning about being poor. That's great. Breath deep, let out all the poor thoughts, all of the stored anger and grief. Yell down the basement steps and say: I am tired of thinking technically poor!  I don't want to see the next generation thinking the same way.   Maybe walk around the house 25 or 30 times, go out in a wide open field and yell like Rocky and say....

"I have all these machines, half my spare time tied up in tools, plans, and beautiful, perfect tools, yet I never seriously read a book about jigs in my life!
Others may have built a production operation, starting with a few simple machines and developed an operation, and randomly designed and produced their ideas.  

Bedazzled?  Anger management helps, but productivity could cure it..

Now, don't spread any of that grief, because it doesn't help one bit.  Just pretend to be better now,  that's the best thing.  It might help you out in the long run. Just do what most people do, and imagine that you can do whatever you want as long as you want, be as angry as you want and nobody will ever stop you. Yell at people, call the radio and tell everyone it was their fault for not telling you about the Mascut, or about the book IMM. Tell everyone that you could have been more of an expert just by ordering a simple book called "Jigs and gauges for Beginners"... Imagine yelling at the gas station attendant....Don't really do it, don't whine, but just imagine it. 

Remember, it is very probable that nobody we know is responsible for the fact that their machines are idle. It is very probable that nobody we know is responsible that so many are unable to be knocking off products smoother than anyone can imagine. It is very probable that nobody alive is responsible, everyone is just taking orders, just doing their task at hand, and never ordering a Mascut for their table saw. 

Not even the retires are responsible because many of them had to take off their thinking caps a long ago. Say it again, I have machines, and I am tired of thinking poorly, thinking technically poor, and I don't want to see the next generation thinking the same way.   I am going to get mad and see that things change. I won't let another generation use their woodworking tools to collect dust. I'll tell people, I'll ask George for a free copy of Northirst, and read it, and give it to them, instead of discussing sports.  I will give some info to the High School, the college, and every mechanically minded person who bought slot machines in the past 5 years. 

Just say, I am tired of boring stuff, and won't let another kid use a woodworking shop to raise ferrets. I am tired of listening to the news and radio with random, irrational critics, ranting, finger pointing, saber rattling, joking or self pity.  Say, I will treat myself, or otherwise present someone with something they never imagined existed. That way, in five or ten years, they might be too busy, too fulfilled, too well occupied and possibly too financially secure to protest or whine because they took a bunch of idle machines and became a developer, an implementer, and an idea founder.  And another thing....don't take my advice about complaining about the economy or being poor or the gas prices...Don't really do that! It's contagious. 

 

Remember, Don't really do that! It's contagious, it often grows worse, and it can be handled with enough determination before the anger reaches a counterpoint, which is not good.  Besides, yelling will disturb the peace, and the bail bondsman may be woodworking.  There are 100's of great movies, 100's of icons of comedy, and tons of books, but few of them as good or as relevant or as available as easily as the ones that come  with the MASCUT.

Read about the new economy where decisions are made by the 
determined production specialists they don't know.

Country Markets can even turn into theme-topia, they can spark 
every advanced product or theme, even into a national scale.  

It's called mustard seed mentality...
Ambition is like a mustard seed.  Out of the smallest seed, the tiniest little micro-seed gets planted and whole industries become offshoots of such initial, wide scope of understanding. 
 

W-Rated...

Affairs, Markets and Festivals...

Maybe one of the few alternative to Walameratopia....

To some, Wal-ameratizing their country town has it's plus's and minus's.  
The minus's are that they don't put a lot of initial joy into the existing merchants, and they really keep most people dependent on current day economies without much need to begin,  improve, or expand, or advance our domestic manufacturing supply lines and systems.   In fact, some go out of business and don't have the resources to diversify and challenge some of the micro-automated practices of the big box warehouses.  In fact, as you probably know, they displace a majority of certain types of local businesses, and replace them with franchises run from a central command of economic experts, many from another state.  This often concerns the local, established business people when many of the future decisions in their new, up and coming economy are made by the highly motivated, highly determined production specialists the local people don't really know.

About the town markets...

The town markets mostly passed out of existence because around the middle of the 20th 
Century (mid 1900's) and a whole new "economy of scale" was introduced which had worldwide possibilities for the brilliant and determined production specialists across America.  That was a good thing.  It helped to develop mass markets of enormous surplus and profits which benefited the whole system.  We didn't have to worry about what some of the third world countries had to tolerate, and with all of the profits, we overcame extended poverty and built an entire middle class.  Now, as many know, because of numerous factors, town markets are again returning to protect towns that are too small for a Walmart,  yet not willing to let the retailer move in and begin an entirely different economy based upon an "economy of scale" which is now large portion of imported, merchandise.  How do some cities begin to battle the corporate invasion?  

 

Knowing that the community can use a Muti-funtional market, they build "Festival Marts" like they did for thousands of years in Europe.  In Ohio for example, they have "Jungle Jim's" with 6 acre's of stores! Around some of these markets they even build hotels and car lots, book stores, even  recreation theme parks. They sell furniture, they are an outlet for innovators and skilled craftsman who can add a variety of products, but only if they know how to make things in a little higher volume.  Pretty soon, I will predict,  the Jungle Jim off- shoot products will appear... "Jim's" clothing, foods,  "Jungle Jim's" manufacturing facilities and a whole new economy spreading even into a broader, more national scope. 

Woodworkers might want to expand their abilities then to mechanize their rooms full of idle 
machines....that's the idea behind the Mascut...Mass-Cut.

sketch of a fictional event. This website has been providing woodworking jigs and downloads since 
2001. Read the comments!


Attention....Nowhere man is called up!
June 1st, 2040...

Bickering, lack of focus, and a political and educational obstacle 
course has been blamed...


A few dozen U.S. cities are listed by Furbies Magazine as possibly having a group learning disorder.  They have discovered thousands of idle machines. Some think it may be a focus disorder, or info- reception malady. Since January, 100,000 have taken paid retirements and innovators and savants of the secrets in many of the tooling and mechanical fields are requested by the State Department to temporarily return, to report; to save the economy. 

A Spartan's effort for a brisk recovery to prevent the spread of  retirements and 
national loathing.  Asia May 2040 has a change of guard.....(more acceptable term.)
Many are reading IMM, and are needed to revive productivity and save thousands of  the 
remaining national tool suppliers. 

There is a massive flow of innovations, tens of thousands of new inventions, and it has been discovered, a scarcity of jig makers, and operations specialists. Asia has temporarily ceased trading with the Western world.  Nowhere man  is being broadcasted in the front of town hall, and volunteers are requesting the services of jig makers to demonstrate automation and duplication.   Machine specialists are reading IMM, and are needed to revive productivity and save thousands of the remaining national tool suppliers. A political and educational obstacle course has been blamed and machinery and the brisk activity of the past century is gone. Politics and services are beginning to show critical symptoms too. George, the Nowhere Man, old annoyed individual, but ambitious citizen discovered hanging around Woodjig,com has been revved up and notified to orchestrate a revival and a last ditch effort for a brisk recovery and to prevent national loathing....Tune in monthly, Furbies Magazine, June 1st, 2040.

__________________________________



Until now, you had to buy the whole package.
  Now you can see how this great jig works on the Shop Video.  You 
can now see all the tricks and this explicit production jig in action.  Plus many more tips for your shop and Table Saw.  Of course, we will give you credit towards an upgrade if you choose to purchase the complete
Mascut 1.0 in the future.  The Mascut video fills a huge void between the Engineer, and the occasional Woodworker.  After all of the shops we have visited, we regretted seeing so many machines and capable woodworkers, and shops who don't know how to duplicate.  This can mean a huge lose of potential work.

 
  
The video is a whole new pro-active solution.
Many engineers have to know how to make a production jig 
and most machinists can do very precision work, but this discipline 
is seldom communicated to the average woodworker.
The
Mascut video has no comparison in any known book,
video, or magazine article.  Until now, the guarded technique 
of duplication took years to acquire. This Video can now help 
generate more volume, and more precision, addressing machines 
sitting idle or dormant in many and woodworking shops.

 Now, the Video/DVD is sold
individually.  The same one currently included 
only with the Mascut 1.0 

This is a 48 Minute Video...It will take you about an hour  just to read all of the information about the 
MASCUT 1.0 on this website ....so, see it all on Video now!

Our Regular price is $79.95 for this Video.

  To learn duplication can give any woodworker a huge advantage in any technical or engineering job.  
Knowing duplication can be a huge confidence builder for any young engineer too!

NOTICE:  about kick back on a table saw....

Observe all safety rules when using a table saw.  Always use an overhead blade guard or a fixed blade guard on a crosscut fixture.  Kickback can occur with a crosscut fence or rip fence.  With a crosscut fence,  it usually happens when your work piece is not held tightly, or it is  tilted on your return cut.  On your rip fence it occurs when your work piece binds between the blade and table saw fence.  (Usually when an operator stops mid-cut and decides to back-up)   Kickback is a violent launch of your work-piece and can be  very dangerous.
