Riser

Great looking job. You know I bought that isoloc template years ago and I still haven’t use it.

Sounds like a good trade to me. You got the mill, some shop time, built a gorgeous jewelry box and brightened his wife’s day. What is not to like about this story.

Thanks for sharing.

CNC in Garage, what do you think he would charge for a copy on that jig,
as he already has the plan. I might be interested in purchasing one.
Looks like it worked well for you.

Sounds like a win-win deal to me. I really like the joint that it creates and of course the jewelry box looks great too.

That really makes an interesting joint. Both projects look good.

GaryCN, look at the Flickr link. It is a low tech solution. I square it up using a framing square, clamp and rout the tails. I then screwed it to a 2X4 then clamped the 2X4 to the stock to machine the socket. Sorry, I didn’t take a picture of that operation. Anyway you can see the jig is thicker than it needs to be (I would rather not have to hang the router bit out so far). I have been thinking of making another one using this one as a master and pattern cutting (flush trim bit) in thinner material (~ 1/4”). This would also minimize my chances of damaging this one with use. I haven’t decided what to make the copy out of. Any Ideas?
