    The document describes a multi-use tablesaw jig that consists of an interchangeable carriage and three fixtures for cutting different joints. The carriage rides on a Biesemeyer-style fence and can accept different fixtures for cutting tenons, keyed miters, or spline slots. A template ensures the mounting holes for the fixtures align with those in the carriage. The jig saves time, materials and space by performing multiple cutting tasks with one jig instead of separate dedicated jigs.

    Three jigs in one


    Instead of making multiple jigs for cutting different
    joints on the tablesaw, I saved time, materials, and space
    by making one that can do multiple jobs. It consists
    of a carriage that rides my Biesemeyer-style fence and
    interchangeable fixtures designed to cut various joints. I
    have three fixtures: one for cutting tenons, one for keyed
    miters, and one for cutting spline slots.
    The carriage is made from 34-in. Baltic-birch plywood,
    but MDF would work as well. To ensure that the
    mounting holes in all fixtures align with those in the
    carriage, make a 14-in.-thick plywood template the same
    size as the carriage side. Drill the five
    14-in.-dia. holes in the template and use it to drill the
    mounting holes in the carriage and in
    the fixture base. Install any fences,
    hold-downs, or clamps you need
    with glue and/or screws
    from behind.

    I finished the carriage and


    fixtures with two coats of shellac and
    applied paste wax on the interior of the
    carriage so it slides freely on the rip fence.

    is the same size as the
