Anybody ever play around with the idea of a finger joint jig that works with the smt? I havent been in front of my saw recently, so I'm not even sure of the possibilty. One of my consumers wants some storage cubes built and wants a cool looking joint.

Lee (Stytooner) posted a Finger/Box joint jig way back when and it is occasionally referred to in different posts from time to time.

I just found this - A quick jump to the specific jig that works in conjunction with the SMT table can be seen here on his site:

If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

Another easy (perhaps easier) jig to make is one where using a say 1/4" dado blade. You make a 1/4" runner out of a piece of hardwood, and glue it onto a base. As you cut the first finger, you put that on the runner and that gives you a 1/4" space, as long as the blade is a 1/4" from the runner.
Its alot easier to do this way on a router.Former Member Name - JohnnyTestComment
