Nice Tenoning jig, but....

Nice Tenoning jig, but.... Nice Tenoning jig, but.... No-picture-s Click the pictures to enlarge them

I had to modify it, by drilling new holes for the miter bar to use it on my Ridgid TS3612 saw. It has 2 sets of holes in it, but one set put it on top of my blade and the other set put it too far away. It was very easy to assemble other than this but after assembling it and adjusting it. It has 3 adjustable screws to fit your miter slot. It can be used for any angled tenon from 0 to 45 degrees. Wish I had bought one sooner.

I have had one of these for a couple of years now, and I use it daily.

Currently I seem to be building an awfully lot of larger pieces that require mortise and tenon jointery (or maybe it is just the construction style that I have adopted as my own standard). With this jig I can now quickly and confidently produce a variety of tight fitting, functional tenons that greatly add to the strngth and integrity of my projects.

For my own usage, I did not have to make any alterations to the jig and it works famously on my Delta tablesaw.

So just to prop up and agree with you drfixit, a great product that works well in my shop as well.

that looks EXACTLY like my delta tenoning jig (except different paint). i had to move the miter slot bar on it to the 2nd set of holes as well.

I got the same jig and was putting it together last night and found the similar problem with my Dewalt benchtop saw. I was too tired to start fooling with it but am hoping that it will fit with the outer holes. If not, I will have to go with your plan. I was considering connecting a piece of maple to the face plate instead but I am not sure if it would use up too much of the runout. Your timing on this post was perfect.

Have you tried using it yet? I was a little uncertain about its quality, but the price was right. Glad to see it is working well for Trev. Let us know how it works for you.

Thanks for posting.

Ive used mine several times and am pleased with it, just not too happy that next week it is on sale for $30 off what i paid for it.
