    Default Adjustable Box joint jig

    Hi all,

    Been looking at the Incra ibox and then found a plan for a home made one. Just made from a few scraps of jarrah and tassie oak, handful of hardware total cost about $10. Works very very well for 1/4" to 7/8" and is micro adjustable both finger and gap.

    Cheers
    Redgy

    That looks like beautiful workmanship there Redgy. Were the plans on the net, or some that you had yourself?

    They were in one of the Time Life/Woodsmith custom woodworking series books on jigs.

    I have inherited quite a number of those and slowly working my way through them. I haven't come across that jig yet, but I will certainly keep looking very closely now.

    You were right Redgy, Time Life book. Found it last night, so I will be having a go at it in the near future. Hopefully it will be at least half as good as yours.
