I don't have much interest in woodwork, but seeing this guy has really sparked my interest in it.

Nicely done. You should market a metal version. I used to cut a lot of tenons for my tables aprons and this would have been nice.

@tro8Aoper I agree with you, but it's a NOBEL prize. (Alfred Nobel, Sweedish chemist and industrialist.)

Flipping the workpiece around takes a few seconds of time, but it also automatically centres the tenon... Exactly. (Same for a routed Mortice.) Whichever you make first is a personal choice, but measuring the width of a tenon with verniers? As long as it is approx 1/3 of the total thickness that's all that matters.
Nice jig, but a little overkill?

Fit is much more important than centered.
I usually make my tenons off-center on purpose. Flipping the workpiece causes errors (read the article that goes with the video)

Did I miss something here? I understand the accuracy on the thickness of the tenon... but what about centering? Did I miss you measuring the thickness of the board? Was there some setback you used based on thickness value to guarantee the tenon is centered? Thanks!

The tenon doesn't have to be centered with this jig. Fact is, I almost always offset my tenons. Center is usually not the ideal location for the mortised piece.

only in engineering you would use measurements like this, I am a carpenter/joiner and have been for 30 years and we don’t go to this sort of extreme measurement don’t forget wood moves and is affected by moisture, it’s not like steel great idea but just use a rule like we all do, it’s worked for hundreds of years

I guess the UK is the only other place that still uses inches to some extent.
