Tyler,

How do keep sawdust from getting under the tape?  I will usually have some sawdust get under the tape obscuring the line.  I have tried really hard to make sure the tape is really pressed down on the pattern, but no matter how hard I try sawdust get under the tape.

Thank You,

Jerry

I use the clamp Steve Good showed how to make. A couple pieces of wood a couple bolts and wing nuts. I don’t have to use tape all the time with that.  When I do,  I am very careful about putting tape on the side that hasn’t been cut.

It happens to me from time to time but, I can usually tell where the cut line is or, where it's supposed to be

Jerry, I use a hard rubber roller to press everything down; from the clear shelf liner, the pattern, and clear tape when needed. I bought mine at a thrift store but Amazon has them:

I don't use tape.

I made a clamping jig to do my compound cuts.  I also added springs so the tension stays even.  I added the thumb nuts to make it easier to tighten/loosen on the fly. 

No need for tape.

I have made that jig also, but never though about using springs, thx for the info, RJ

I like the Christmas lights on the vacuum. At least I think they are Christmas Lights.  Also like your addition to the clamp.
