The Best Mortise Jig updates the previous version with Higher Quality Video.
I have yet to see mortises, as perfect, and as easy as the ones you'll be making with this jig. This jig gives perfect mortises in less time than any other method. With the Best Tenon Jig, you can make perfect Mortise and Tenon joints. It can't get any easier than with these jigs.
You can see how to make this jig at http://www.provenwoodworking.com/mortise-jig.html.
You can view the "Sister" Tenon Jig at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqqUoJO0Nqs
You can either square the mortise or round the corners of the tenon. I've tried both methods. It seems easier to round the edges of the tenon. You can use a chisel or a wood rasp to do this quickly and easily. I like to take a small slice of each corner with a chisel.
Also, a Nicholson 4-in-1 Wood Rasp works well.
Best, Jim
