I thought it was about time to build one. The front face is interchangeable. I have a 1/2in and 1/4in pins. Each face is adjustable with a screw at the end (2nd pic). The last pic is the first test cut on some scraps. The triangle images that you can see are from a project that I had recently finished on the scarps I used to make the jig. It may not be pretty but it get the job done!

Sometimes simple and effective is the best way to go.
I need to build one of these, as I’m interested in learning new joinery techniques, and for me, this would be new. I’ve been interested in exploring box joints, as I figured I could make a jig similar to this one that would be easy to use and inexpensive to build, but still produce the desired results.
Thanks for posting this.
