Adjustable Stop for Cutting Tenons
Oct 25, 2005
Here is a simple stop-fixture that I use to cut perfect tenon shoulders. The device, which is attached to my cut-off jig, prevents tenon-cheek waste from jamming against the fence, as often happens when using the rip fence as a stop. I just cut the workpiece to the right length, and the stop does the rest.

This jig is a value-oriented alternative to the Leigh D4R, but its template system is just as excellent.
Veritas Standard Wheel Marking Gauge
A wheel-type gauge is the easiest to use, and this wonderful Veritas model is a steal at $38.
