In the old days when I routed my boxjoints I used a 3/8" spiral hss bit, think it was an option for the Leigh dovetail jig. So they are not all super expensive solid carbide. Here's a link to the one I used, available in 8mm also. Leigh HSS Spiral Upcut Router Cutters In general I think table...

Don't know if wood would be a good rocket material but thanks for the comparison:)

It's standard SBR linear rails, 12mm, can be found on all kind of cheap sites. The ballscrew is SFU1204, 12mm with 4mm pitch, also that easy to find. Both ballscrew and linear rails are also easily found in other sizes and pitches if you plan on making something else than the jig I made.

I realize now there is actually no picture of the jig itself...this is what it looks like, any questions just ask.

The Superjig 2.0! This jig can nowadays do so much more than when first presented last year. For example then I said it could do boxjoints on every 2mm, it nowadays makes them on every 0.5mm finger width without problems. I have also extended the capabilities with boxjoint variations in...

There is no such rule. To me finger width is mainly about aesthetics. Too few and wide fingers will look strange, so will too narrow. If nothing unusual, I usually aim for close to material thickness for the finger width. I always go for odd no of fingers as that will give a symmetric look, I...

Generelly I think table saw is preferred over router table when it comes to boxjoints and tear out. My jig has its own thread on this forum. Must say though it's even better now and new videos are ongoing. https://www.ukworkshop.co.uk/threads/my-latest-jig-creation.135101/

HRC is the hardness, probably for the saw blade. Wouldn't care too much about that, I never purchased a saw blade based on it's HRC. t=2.3 would be the riving knife thickness. The riving knife should be slightly thinner than the blade so for a 2.8 kerf blade a 2.3 riving knife is suitable. I...

Good work. You could eliminate much of that tear out if having a support piece behind the wood you're cutting. It could be as simple as clamping a piece of MDF to the rear fence so you get a zero clearance slot around the saw blade. BTW, not all youtube jigs cuts one at a time, I often cut 4 on...

Thanks! This jig is not dependent on certain blade thicknesses, although it reduces the work sometimes. One of it's strengths in terms of boxjoints is flexibility, possible to make all finger widths in 0.5mm increments so minimum risk to end up with half fingers on the end or some other...

Been experimenting with various patterns over the weekend. Have a new film coming up soon where I handle these. Quite simple to make, no major difference compared to standard boxjoints. If you are into these kind of joints with variations, this jig will give you so many pattern options. These I...

Many have had the same thoughts and asked me if the fence flipping is really necessary. Once drawed up it's obvious.

I am a part time pro woodworker and don't have time or interest to invent unneccesary jigs. I invent them when I see a need to improve accuracy or speed or both. Don't put me in the folder "youtube content for contens sake". I upload to youtube when I have something new to present, not seen on...

The whole idea with flipping the fence is that it's extremely difficult to absolutely center the machine on the thickness of the workpiece, even if woodpeckers version has a nice height setting feature. Center in thickness would require very accurate height setting and probably a few test cuts...

Work with is maybe the wrong term but yes Veritas made a similar version and are paying me royalties. Woodpeckers also made a version...they don't pay me and I have no patent for this so no right to be upset about that although I think they could have credited me for the original design. There...

I agree about the vernier measuring and solved it in a imo much better way a few days after the first video was released. Did you watch the second movie I posted? This integrated fence flipper solves the flipping super accurately without having to measure anything. The coloured dots were only...

Had the 500 a few good years now, use it regularly. Got some accessories with it like narrow stock thing and some wings with extra side stops, never used any of these. TSO sent me a bigfoot for free when I presented my Domino table. Used the bigfoot a few times and it's quite nice to get more...

Came up with this idea a couple of years ago and finally made a video about them. In short words it's clamping cauls with movable feet, high enough to slide clamps underneath and the gap under the cauls is high enough for clamping heads. The feet have bolts in threaded inserts and the cauls...

Better late then never...but now at least all the build videos and plans are released.:)

More jigs, here's my superjig for tenons and boxjoints. Very quick to work with and the accuracy is extremely good for a fully analogue jig. Can trim boxjoint fit in steps of 0.05mm, cuts tenons and double tenons with better accuracy than 0.05mm and set up time is very short with zero or maximum...
