Table Saw Tenoning Jig

This tenoning jig is quick and easy to make, and is a safe way to cut tenons on a table saw.

I begin by cutting down some 3/4” plywood on my table saw to make the various parts needed.

I also rip down some slider pieces that will run along the fence on the table saw and allow the jig to move.

I measure the width needed for the top cap on the fence to the edges of the slider pieces.

I rip down the exact dimension of top cap needed.

I apply wood glue to the top edges of the sliders.

I install the top cap on the sliders and secure in place with wood screws.

I apply some wood glue to one side of the slider pieces.

I then secure the main jig piece to the side of the slider pieces with wood screws.

I install some hole openings in the jig to allow for a D clamp to pass through and hold the work piece in place.
