Awesome. One simple Jig, from 3 pieces of wood, makes 4 different sizes, of Box Joints. The fit of the Box Joints can be adjusted. And the best thing about this Jig is, i can take it to the Table Saw and cut Finger Joints right away, without the need to making any adjustments for different sizes of Finger Joints. And it works without a dado blade. Just with a single blade.

Dear Arnold, thanks for showing off your finger joint jig. It is very elegant in how it solves several requirements. Not having a dado blade was my biggest limitation, another wanting metric measurements instead of that outdated imperial system. Using a sacrificial strip to prevent tear-out makes for a nice finish. The finesse of correcting fine differences is the icing on the cake. Well done. 10/10.

Zow! This is IMO the best box joint solution going. Far less complicated than the next best fixture by another KZitemr that used gears and a threaded rod to determine spacing and cutting. But you have to remember the number of turns for each part of the sequence. That’s NOT something I do well. While that scheme allows varied-spacing box joints in the same piece, it is far too complicated to build and use....for my taste. Your project makes very accurate, repeatable, consistent box joints. I like my box joints a little snug, but not too much to glue up properly. Your method for adjusting fit is again one of the most elegant I’ve ever seen. Part of its superiority is its perfect repeatability for all box joints made after ‘dialing in’ the fixture to my fitting preference. I have avoided a sled, but with this joint maker, I finally have reason to build one. This is a project I’ll build and use often. Thank you again for the high caliber videos!

I really like your approach to the issue of solving the problem without a dado stacked blade system. So many beginning woodworkers who want to build finger joint boxes out there who can't afford a dado set-up right away. in many cases a dado stack costs as much as a used table saw or more if the saw is free.

Nice jig, well done, like any box joint however they are weak method in joining wood as its just a face on face joint unlike dovetails or interlocking joints what I tend to do myself is if the joint is important rather than just functional I insert a dowel from above to ensure it will never come apart or become loose, your jig works very well. thanks

MAKING EVEN ENDED BOX JOINT WITH A SINGLE BLADE TABLE SAW Like you I was looking for a better design to make even box end joints. I made this and works great. UPGRADED: 1. I added an adjustable stop thru the end stop by using a threaded insert for 1/4-20 bolt and Thumb nut. 2. Your depth caliper was a cool project so I made a Flat holder (No Legs) 1 hole for T-track bolt and two more magnets on bottom so I could use my caliper mounted in the top T-track. I can make fine adjustments if needed this way. Little off track but I'm using the flat caliper holder all over my shop bandsaw, table saw it has many uses. If I need tension I use a rubber band on it. Back to the box Joint. 3. I made a large finger (adjustment) block like your 5, 10, 15, 20mm but it was 1.5x1.5 square about 3" long with a #6 1.25" long screw near the edge same end with blade cut. the edge near fence above the blade cutout about 1/2"ish. It was cut like the other fingers with blade cut into it. The screw is an adjustment for the moving the material. (its a stop for your material so needs to be close to your fence) Hope I explained it's location To make Even finger joint ends takes a bit of math and the #3 block screw adjustments. math is in [ ] basically I'm taking the width of the material subtracting 2xfinger widths to make sure I have more than a full finger width at each and using the adjustment block to add in the 1/2 of remainder to each side. a width of box (material) 3.421 b width of finger 0.375 c width of blade cut 0.125 d Width of box -(2*finger) [a -(b*2)] 2.671 e Number of fingers (new width / finger) [d/b ] 7.1226 f Number of full fingers [ int e ] 7 g Return left over [e-f ] 0.122666667 h adjustment to finger (Left over /2) [g/2]*b 0.0229 i Block Screw adjustment set to [(b-c)-h] 0.2271 This will cut both ends evenly. Adjust screw to .188 put the block against Aluminum stop as a normal finger block. the screw repositions the wood closer to AL stop. Cutting the first finger longer then .375. The second cut you use the .375 finger block against the screw as if it was the Aluminum stop. (still using the adjustment block. second cut your using both the adjustment block and the finger block) Then cut remaining in the middle. Other fingers are using the Aluminum stop as shown with .375 finger. The second piece is just a repeat of the same. You do not start the second piece with the first piece. In this case we want the joints to have even ends so just repeat for each end. Hope this helps anyone wanting to try make even box joint end projects. I really didn't like those sliver cuts on the ends so came up with this method. works with any finger sizes just follow the math
