Abstract

A combination mortise and tenon jig has a body including a platform having an open section with first and second clamp legs on opposite sides for holding a workpiece therebetween with the workpiece part in which a mortise or tenon is to be cut facing toward the open section. A plurality of adjustable members extend from the first clamp leg to engage a workpiece face and the second clamp leg is movable relative to the open section with the extending members and the second clamp leg holding the workpiece at a selected position in the open section. A pair of guide arms pivotally mounted below the platform swing across the platform open section to engage the workpiece part and make it parallel to the platform and a template having a cutout pattern of one of a mortise or tenon overlies the platform open section to guide a router bit to cut the mortise or tenon in the workpiece end.
