Project Information
Hi Friends I have been building (amongst other things) a desk for my daughter-in-law (will post tomorrow) I have since joining Lumberjocks become a fan of loose tenon joinery so I found a jig on the site made by Sawdustonmyshoulder
But after sending him a couple of PM's without reply (anyone know where he is?) I decided to guess dimensions myself & have a go this is what I came up with it is slightly different but works in the same way. I used Kreg tee track & mitre track but made the stops from some 1/2" poly prop sheet I had lying around. Sawdust did a great video on using it very informative check it out. I used a deWalt 625 plunge router (removed for clarity) & I have to say it's a great jig. This site is a great reference library, If anyone wants to build one I can save them some time with measurements etc. I have a commercially madeTrend mortice & tenon jig (a cheaper version of the Leigh MT) but capacity is limited, this however will handle most things I'm liable to throw at it. Hope you like it & build one
Best regards to you all
Trevor
