Cut Perfect Tenons with this Table Saw Jig!

This Adjustable Tenon Jig was featured on the Woodsmith Shop, E403: Table Jigs & Accessories. In this video excerpt, the guys walk you through the construction and use of this jig , so you can get the best results.

A shop-built tenon jig will fit nice and snug on a rip fence the day you build it, but over time it can become loose - or too tight - from changes in humidity. Our tenon jig design solves the problem. Each time you mount the jig, you'll adjust the back plate to bring the jig up snug to your table saw fence. And that means clean, accurate tenons on any project, any time of year.

They are the cleanest carpenters I've ever seen .

That drill hole for alignment tip you mention around 2:00 in, also works well for cutting tenons with stop blocks on the router table. Good call!

I am loving all these jigs. Thanks for showing us the easy way to create those slots, too. Now I need a router table, next!

Perfect video very well designed for the new audience that is learning woodworking techniques. The television script is very interesting, I congratulate the director of the program, I am a TV director and I am learning to work with wood. It is very interesting to be able to do something and feel satisfied with the achievement.

I recommend the table saw if you're making bridles!

Delightful video! Thank you so much for your help!

I didn't know you could make mortise and tenon joints with a Table Saw that's so cool!! I thought you could only do those with a Mortiser.

MAESTROS MIL GRACIAS POR COMPARTIR SUS EXPERIENCIAS.

Love the jig. It looks like you sealed the mdf with something. What was it?

[ab-cjup]

nice technic, with the long holes on the router table. I was wondering if this would have been a case for the use of the guide rail in front of the router? i have seen it seldemly used, honestly i cant remeber one case where it was used. i know you properly tackled the the problem (short side routing on a long board) with the multiple passes, but i also would love a short feedback. thank you in advance

Excellent jig design. I only have one comment that I wish you would address. I have been trying to buy a router table since July. No one has them, of ANY brand. I even wrote to the Kreg company. Their answer was that they can't produce them fast enough and some parts are not sourced in the US. They are STILL trying (in NOVEMBER!) to fill their back orders. If we cannot buy a router table, I would have preferred that you also discussed a way to make this without a table. I do have a router. No table. I use it freehand.

I see by comments below I`m not the only one & looking forward to many more ( be 79 in may)

[CodeSeen]

That’s slick, but how’d did you cut that mortise??

[shaunbeard]

Hi great video btw. The wooden stop block u used, could this then be used as a template for all joints the same size. Just write on it the measurements and keep

[FuzzyScaredyCat]

Was this a competition to see how many presenters you could get in? ;)

[huwdavies]

Nice jig. How come your workshop is always immaculately clean? Please let me know your secret. Cheers, Huw

I've always heard you shouldn't use a miter gauge and the fence at the same time?
