Box joint jig

Recommended Posts

I am building the wood whisperer guild modern chest of drawers and nightstand. For the build thread check the woodworking section. The drawer fronts are put together with box joints. In the video he makes them with the bandsaw and table saw. I decided to make the John heitz's, ibuildi.ca on youtube, box joint jig. It took around 2 days to make. Lots of gluing and drying time. So far so good. It takes a little figuring out with the right amount of clicks to do to get the right sized joints. The beauty of this setup is I can make the box joints different sizes all in the same joint. 08ed4c1ca5ab0af880906679dee90403.jpg15f2378fd936defa59b23a955d076ec8.jpgc36be2c1e6026b02c7c61a9e15e53b16.jpg6bb351076ec452826367915e0c10d650.jpge95b49eda331ec4404344b228a5bef52.jpg

I'll throw this up here too as well as the other thread.

I kind of did a hybrid with the jig. I used the band saw to get my cut lines then I used the jig to cut out the waste. It works well of you remember to change the height setting. [emoji23] I will probably do a dado stack next time though. 9fdcb9fbd4765ccbbd9ecf3acdd79971.jpg5fc34b190e2b786dfa067ed4ecd56b25.jpg
