What Customers Say About 7 Sizes in 1 Jig - Tenon Cutter for Rustic Adirondack Log Furniture & Railings:
|

It is accurate and can produce long tennons for inserting in the wide logs you may have to use from time to time- or for thru tennon construction. It sure beats trimming the ends of logs by hand with a pocket knife. After a while I got the hang of it. But alas it is slower and less accurate than the pencil sharpener method.
Though I needed to vacuum this out between each tennon. So, what are the advantages. It is handy for one person to use, not two like the pencil sharpener method. The router based tennon cutter is a solid performer. It is a noce tool and worth the price in the time is saves. I learned to remove the tennon a few times during the cut to measure.
However each removal makes the tennon a bit smaller and the joints a bit sloppier. Another tip- to keep the shop from becoming knee deep in shavings and chips I duct taped a towel to the back side of the unit where the completed tennon exits and this cut down on the mess considerably.
Safety goggles anda mask and a respirator are a must as are a good solid pair of gloves to hold the vibrating log. It is also quicker than using the drill mounted hole saw method.
Over all I like using this for small logs for chairs and railings and small head boards. A note, if you are using a log wider than the tennon then trimming the end to a bevel that fits inside the tennon forming hole is a must.
Also, cutting tennons to a specific length is a bit tricky since any markings you may put on the log are obscured by the top plate that holds the router and reaching around the back side to measure is a lot dangerous. However it is not large enough to accomadate large head board side logs.
My speed adjustable router shined when at half speed and cut down on excess vibration.
