Part 1: A universal jig for precise finger joints and small wedges
Here is a video I made about a universal precision box joint and small wedge jig. Quick and easy to set up, cheap to make, it replaces the tedious one at a time process usually done. The insidious “creep” of finger joint jigs is eliminated. It safely makes small wedges precisely and cleanly. Thank you for watching. The last 10 seconds got truncated due to a time limit on Photobucket. Better way? <div></div>
Part 2: Loose Tenon, Precision Fence, Dowel making, Good looking turnbuckles, Router MultiJig
I have finally taken pictures and posted on my business blog several jigs that may be of interest. Having scoured LJ I can say these jigs have unique features not seen elsewhere, yet. Yes, they are each a compilation of several sources. And there are several more jigs and items in previous posts that you might find interesting. I’ve spared you the Kerfmaker posting on LJ… :) My blog Thank you for looking.
Part 3: Finally, Safe Storage For Draw Knife
A flash of inspiration hit me today as I was examining some old 45 blade storage boxes. My draw knife has rattled about loosely in a box with nothing but underwear on (a cardboard tube from paper towels). It was kinda like reaching into a pit of vipers digging around in that box. But now, I have a safe and useful storage “jig”. http://kragerwoodworking.weebly.com/1/post/2012/09/finally-safe-storage-for-draw-knife.html Dan
Part 4: Router Mill building blog
I’m choosing to blog my router mill build on my own web site with a link from here. I’ve two entries there now. This is a router mill kit I obtained from Mark Sternberg (Mark55) who designed the machine and sells kits. I’m pretty excited about adding this machine to my inventory. It will open up some possibilities in woodworking that I’ve not had even with hand tools. DanK
Part 5: The MRM-V4-1.1 is alive and well
I finished building the kit router mill I purchased from Mark Sternberg (Mark55). I am so impressed with it’s versatility and ease of setup and use. It is trivial to cut long parallel slots in 3/4” Baltic birch, pieces for my workbench accessories, post #8543. There are more details in my personal blog I’m just at a loss for more words right now!DanK
