Woodsmith Box Joints Plan
Box joints are strictly “power tool” work. You don’t need hand saws or chisels. That means they’re quick and easy to cut — as easy as pushing a piece across the table saw. And the interlocking pins create so much good gluing surface you’d be hard pressed to break the joint. Don’t get me wrong. Quick and easy doesn’t mean sloppy. Box joints have to fit well for the glue to work. That’s why I rely on a shop-made jig. With a careful setup, this box joint jig works with assembly-line consistency.
We offer the Woodsmith Box Joints plan as a downloadable PDF or a printed format that we ship to you.
Box joints have it all — they’re strong, quick, and good-looking. And all you need is a dado blade and a “ten-minute” jig.
Step-by-step instructions, exploded views, and more—this Box Joints plan includes techniques and a guide for a shop-made jig to create perfect box joints.
