Many thanks for this video. I recently made a dining room table and have a yearning to build some chairs with uncomplicated joints. You've filled that gap for me and I now feel able to go forward and make those chairs.
Really nice looking and functional joint~! I learn more from videos like this than I have from any books I've read over the last 30+ years of woodworking. Thanks and keep bringing it~!
You could cut an extra piece of your stock and sandwich it in the jig instead of using your dado to cut that notch. That should give you a perfect fit.
Good ideas! I suppose you could make the jig portion in two pieces, bolted through in a few places. Then, you could add paper shims until you "find" it.
Thanks Duncan! But my ULTIMATE live edge river cross cut sled video will be out in the next few weeks. Features 10 ft. of t-track and 7 swappable inserts.
@@parillaworks That sounds sufficiently out of the ordinary that I will likely enjoy it. Please keep up the not-ordinary, the experiments (including dismal failures) and shots-in-the-dark -- they are all greatly appreciated.
This is a great idea. Kind of a slap the head, obvious! solution but not one I’ve seen. I can see the trick is in the execution but you’ve gone a long ways to solve that. Thank you for your effort.
This looks great! I would worry about the short grain on the upper portion of the dowel, but I think most of the forces would be on the lower side. Nicely done.
Valid concern. I think once the glue is in place, everything would be ok. I could also not make the joint as deep into the dowel, say a third of the way instead of half way.
Perhaps if you recessed the ‘tongue’ slightly, the depth of the groove would not be as critical.. less chance of gaps and the only critical dimensions are the diameter of the dowel/pocket and thickness of the tongue/groove
I’ve been looking for jointers like this forever! Not many tutorials over this with leg dowels. Is there a way I can just do the cuts on the dowels big enough for the whole slab of wood to fit into? I just don’t have a table saw like that.
That’s a good point, though there is some strength derived from that surface contact. That is, if you can actually get it to match perfectly. Good point though!

No problem Alan. Chairs are tough but rewarding! Good luck!
very clever work. Thanks for sharing. greetings from Turkey🤝👋
Thank you!
I never thought of a jig like that John 👍🏻 ...thanks for taking the time explaining! As always, thanks for sharing!
Anytime Bill. Thanks for watching!
That is a great looking joint, great work!
Thank you!
Nice work on a very interesting joint structure!
Thanks Steve!

Thanks Andrew!
Love this!
Thanks Micah!
Nice thinking. I like this joint and can see uses for it.
Great looking joint. I really like the idea of that.
Thank you for sharing!

Interesting joint. Thanks
THIS is the sort of stuff I wish everybody was posting. Thank you for not showing us how to make a cross-cut jig.

parillaworks But will you show how you made that plywood?

Thanks Rick!
Neat, I like your jig method!
I like it, Now lets see you make one at an angle...Better yet, a compound angle.
This looks great! I would worry about the short grain on the upper portion of the dowel, but I think most of the forces would be on the lower side. Nicely done.
Valid concern. I think once the glue is in place, everything would be ok. I could also not make the joint as deep into the dowel, say a third of the way instead of half way.
Very cool! Could you place the dowel into the jig and cut the groove out that way? or Create an identical jig just for this portion?
Thanks! I think you’re on to something with that idea. I’ll definitely look into it. The two cuts should correspond in some fashion.
Perhaps if you recessed the ‘tongue’ slightly, the depth of the groove would not be as critical.. less chance of gaps and the only critical dimensions are the diameter of the dowel/pocket and thickness of the tongue/groove
That something to try but the glue joint between the tongue and the dowel is one of the primary points of strength of this joint.

If you recess that tongue about 1/8" then you could have a little more forgiveness to avoid exposing the cut in the dowel.
That’s a good point, though there is some strength derived from that surface contact. That is, if you can actually get it to match perfectly. Good point though!
