Very nicely done! You should enjoy that jig and it looks real handy.

Nice little jig Kiefer! Very clever and I can see how this will prove very useful in your shop with all the boxes you produce. I see your little helpers were keeping you company!

Kiefer, nice looking jig. I have to ask, what is the benefit of the jig for cutting splines? Tilting the blade 45 degrees and using a miter/fence/stop block or sled/stop block will yield the same result? Maybe I am missing something? Thanks.

Awesome… Looks like a very effective jig…. I also like the duplication of you and your dog

My main objective is that I don’t have to tilt the blade and precision and also using it on the router table to cut dove tail groves .The goggle clamps hold everything nice and tight and the jig is a breeze to setup for all three applications .

You met all your objectives. Nice!!

hi Klaus,

I like your approach to design. Start with the end in mind and keep going till you get there!

You have a very practical jig here Klaus. I like the idea of not having to tilt the blade. just wondering how you know you are at a 45. I will wait for the blog before I ask more questions. Pretty cool buddy.

The jig is exactly on a 45 DEG. angle (slope ) look at this picture and my fancy 45 DEG square which I made just for this . Every angle has to be just perfect to get the precision I was looking for .

Thanks Klaus. Now I got a better idea of it.

As usual an elegant solution by Klaus Kiefer.

Looks like MDF? Any issues with screws holding fast?

If you screw MDF together face to edge go on an angle and it is less likely to split and of course predrill and use LO ROOT screws .

I like it Klaus. Good idea making it a multi station jig.
