The more I say the word jig, the less it sounds like a real word…anyway, I’ve been making a few jigs to help with a few projects and get rid of scrap wood. Here i’ve got a taper jig that I made out of a couple of 1x’s and some scrap oak. The handle used to be a spindle for my deck until I chopped it down. The flush trim jig is just out of 1/4” plywood and a 2×2 that has been routed with some roundovers. The last picture is a t jig for straitline routing and cutting made from 3/4” plywood and then a circle cutting jig made from 1/4” hardboard. I got most of the ideas/plans from Bill Hylton (did I spell that right?) in his book Router Magic.
I hope to post soon the projects I’ve used these jigs on.
Thanks!

Thanks for the comments, guys. Except the one about a steely eyed jig master. Unless of course that’s a compliment. Then thanks for that, too.

Every wood worker in the world has to make jigs and yours are well made and obviously well used, and loved.
