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.
