Woodsmith Locking Rabbet Jig Standard Plan & Premium Shop Drawings
We use locking rabbet joints quite often when building drawers. But setting up to cut a tight-fitting joint can be a tedious, frustrating process. The location and size of the dadoes and tongues have to be perfect. This jig eliminates the guesswork and allows you to cut a snug joint in a snap. Using a pair of flip-up stops and a tall, adjustable fence, the jig lets you make all the cuts with one setup. A few test cuts are all you need before you’re ready to cut all the workpieces in “production mode.” Just a few easy steps and you’re done. We include specifics on using the jig to cut four variations of the joints.
You can purchase the Woodsmith Locking Rabbet Jig standard plan or the supplemental premium shop drawings as a downloadable PDF or in a printed format that we ship to you. We highly recommend purchasing both the standard plan and the supplemental premium shop drawings for more in-depth instructions and greater detail.
Take a weekend to build this jig and you’ll be rewarded with easy-to-cut drawer joints.
Step-by-step instructions, exploded views, materials list, and more—these plans have everything you need to build your own Locking Rabbet Jig.
