I have tried his technique to flatten & plane a board too wide for my SS jointer. It worked fine and i will use it again.

I made the copy carver. It's not exactly the same as his, but it works really well. I used it to make signs for our golf course. I made 18 all the same just had to change the hole number, yardage, and par number.
I went to Goodwill, and bought two pairs of in-line skates to get the bearings. Wouldn't you know there was a guy there buying skates for the exact same thing. We laughed about Matthias and all his jigs and contraptions that he comes up with. All in all I will try more of his jigs in the future.
