Miter Key Jig

Nice looking jig. Making jigs is often more fun than the projects we make them for. Thanks for posting.

That is a good jig – Im familiar with miter key jigs that run along the rip fence. This is a different approach to the same operation.

By trapping the jig in the mitre guide no movement…as can happen when sliding against the fence.
I also like the handle.. and the movable stop.

Nice jig and particularly well made. Congrats.

Finally I found someone who makes jigs as nice as mine!!! (LOL) All the fine details are there – even the screws are equally spaced. I like that.

Favorited. Thanks for sharing and posting. This one will definiteily be a must in my shop.

Best,

Serge

Thanks yall,

I do enjoy making jigs and customizing them to fit me and my needs. Gary is right … The jig can be just about (if not more) fun to make than what you are making it for… Weird…lol

Serge – I honestly laughed out loud when I read your comment. In fact I had to run get my bride to read it…. She too busted out laughing. Its a running joke with everyone I know about my issues with things having to be a “Certain” way…. My wife calls it me being anal. Most everyone else says I have OCD or something along that effect. I call it “Taking Pride In What I Put My Name On”.... OK… It may be me being anal as well…lol

Thanks for the kind words. Hope this helps inspire more cool jigs…

Your jig makes a lot of sense.I like it. I just started making some boxes and knew i would need a spline jig. I just made one but I was not satisfied with it so I pitched it. I guess I need to do a bit more research to build one I like.

and I like the way you have used the tape with the stop
