Project Information
I chose to make this one from the Woodsmith 'Shop Notes' magazine as it offered more features for doing tapers.
Rockler does have one that is similar, but at $80, I chose to make my own.
I think the plan I have is better than the Rockler one. More features and 4 fence knobs instead of just two, as the Rockler has.
I already had most the materials. If I had to buy them all, then you may be approaching the cost of the one from Rockler. But as woodworkers, if we want it better, and as a part of the craft and joy, is in making your own jigs.
