    New Joint?

    So I'm making a puzzle which has a frame and some acrylic panels slotted into grooves .100 inside the edge. Rather than do a triple miter joint (which is a PITA since you have six angles of cumulative error), I came up with this. It's a hybrid between a miter joint and a rabbit/shoulder. Very...

    Router box joint jig w/pics

    I've been meaning to built a box joint jig for some time. I don't have a table saw so I needed to make it for the router table. I wanted quick setup and the ability to make different sized keys. Guide bushings make it quick and easy to set up every time. I made multiple key plates to fit on top...

    Comparative Wood Joint Strength

    Thought you folks would be interested. The article is in "FineWoodworking", #203, February 2009 (Taunton Press). It reminds me of McRabbets choice of a half lap joint for door frames in an outdoor project that he was commissioned to build for a local park. There are some surprising...

    Freud SBOX8 Box Joint Cutter Set $60

    I have this set, it makes terrific box joints on the table saw. Flat bottomed grooves, no splintering/ tear out. I also use it as a general purpose dado blade - not as versatile, but good enough for most tasks. http://www.amazon.com/Freud-SBOX8-Cutter-4-Inch-grooves/dp/B000ASGV1E/ Go buy it...

    Lock Rabbet joint

    I'm making a drawer, out of 3/4" plywood. As part of my continued education, I want to use a lock rabbet joint, since I've never done that one before. I want to use the table saw, since my my box joint blade does both 1/4" and 3/8" cuts. I found a great video on the Wood Magazine web site, but...

    To joint, or to plane?

    I'm about a month away from my Ivey-Cypress® being dry enough to transmogrify into Adirondack chairs. Whilst pre-planning my attack strategery (Bushism) I'm wondering if I need to waste my time (and blades) jointing. Since 8" jointer blades are significantly more expensive and difficult to...
