Perhaps that would but that inside corner in compression from the forces during clamping instead of shear.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16097932954964386602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6996158924511262385.post-39297951382266380242012-01-02T00:19:13.317-08:002012-01-02T00:19:13.317-08:00Well done!

I'm not sure about the following step:"* notch (rabbet) the corners of those strips (for rigidity), get a nice fit and glue them into the dadoes" I'm assuming you cut a 1/4 " rabbet to allow the 1" stock to fir into the 3/4 " trenches.pjaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01840706118526090153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6996158924511262385.post-88802305457988839522011-07-27T17:58:46.044-07:002011-07-27T17:58:46.044-07:00That's just fantastic.

And all it really took was your arriving at that ahh ha moment to figure it out, Welldone.<br />I have always had a pet peeve about mitres due to the slipping and sliding. I have bought so many differtent gizmos to solve the problem and none work as well as this jig you have figured out.<br />I had made something along these lines while in my Cabinet Making/Fine Woodworking classes at college. But what I hade done was to shoot two pces of MDF to a substrate at 90 deg. and use that one confirmed 90 to clamp to. <br />The great thing I like about your idea is that you can move the jig to where it is needed instead of always moving the project to the jig.<br />My wife can't understand why I spend so many hours on the computer reading woodworking blogs and snooping around other woodworkers web sites.<br />The amount of knowledge I have gained over the years from browsing different sites and blogs is incredible. So much more than by reading a book or taking another class.<br />I have gained a huge amount of knowledge from following your site and blog. I thank you very much for being so willing to share your knowledge and craft with the rest of us. I guess I just love working with wood and am always looking for new ways of doing it. Old dogs can learn new tricks as long as we are still willing.Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04276325083077196755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6996158924511262385.post-7012272013104229172011-05-03T05:03:59.808-07:002011-05-03T05:03:59.808-07:00Well done m8 makes life a lot easier, thats anothe...Well done m8 makes life a lot easier, thats another jig to make on my to do list.<br /><br />DaveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6996158924511262385.post-55368624288449217322011-04-01T14:38:25.185-07:002011-04-01T14:38:25.185-07:00I am off to the workshop now to make one of these....I am off to the workshop now to make one of these... could not have come at a more perfect time..
