That's not exactly a thin strip by my standards. It looked to be 3/16". I would never set up a jig to do something like that. Getting down to around 1/32" is where I might do it. I rip 1/16" strips all the time using just the fence. Hard to be consistent while moving the fence every time.

But it is much safer.

I like how he says to be safe and use a push stick (he even shows it!) then doesn't use it for the video. LOL

I agree with Leo. I cut thin strips to the fence using a push stick the thickness of the strip. Niki had a good tutorial for cutting thin strips.

My brother was in my shop. He needed to cut 6 strips at .090". He had been using the move the fence and cut on the outside of the board way to do the job. His strips weren't consistent and he was getting frustrated. He had been at it for about 1/2 hour.

I took his board, set the fence at .090" and ripped the board until it was about 1/2 way through the length. Flipped the board did it again and removed the strip. Did it 5 more times. Took me about 45 seconds. You should have see the look on his face. He actually got the calipers out and started measuring my strips. +/- .003". Like he didn't trust me, HA.
