- Give your project a dynamic look by making one of the most impressive woodworking joints in the world. This video shows how to make a tenon jig that will blow open your possibilities for making insanely cool woodworking joinery. Plus BONUS info on making a castle joint!
It's difficult to beat the joinery strength of a tenon. Accurate tenon joints are rock solid and not difficult to make. I decided to tackle the castle joint with the use of this woodworking tenoning jig. This joinery method can look really difficult. All of the boards have to align perfectly. When they do, your woodworking project looks otherworldly! Here’s the thing…this isn’t a difficult woodworking joint to make. It actually pretty simple and just takes a little bit of planning. Another massive positive for using this joinery technique is it requires no real measuring. You’ll notice in the video that I don’t take any measurements. I simply reference lumber off of each other. Eliminating the math helps to eliminate the errors.
If you want to try making a castle joint and a bunch of other cool woodworking joint, make this tenon jig. Here’s the plans: newtonmakes.com/shop/p/tenonjig

I cut 12 of these by hand last year for my outdoor kamado cart! Great jig, makes the joint effortless!
New subscriber! The way you talk through your thinking on cutting things to the right sizes, and your reasons for using MDF and eschewing glue on your jigs were the convincing factors. It's all a very pragmatic and logical approach to woodworking!
Your timing is impeccable!! Not only do I need to make a tenoning jig for my table saw, but I wanted to incorporate the castle joint into my next project - a wall mounted liquor cabinet. Got your plans, now its time to head back out to the shop. Keep up the great work, love all your videos.
Very cool! It's like I was spying on you... 🤯
Great video~! I like the jig and will probably make one of these, as I need a tenoning jig...looks the same. I'm doing these joints now for the Thuma-style bed I'm making. I wish that I could use this jig for these joints, but the depth of the posts is 4"...deeper than my tablesaw can handle, so it's hand-tools in action. Can't wait to see the finished product~!
Great comment, because I was watching this to try to do a similar project. Curious how the hand tools worked out for you
Stay warm!
If you use a hard wax when cutting aluminum on ur saw it well give a much cleaner cut and much better life on your blades to , great video keep up the videos please
I do like that castle joint,,, But I like the tenoning jig alot more!!
Awesome work, Billy! The jig is fantastic indeed!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks you too!
I really hope that I need to make a joint like that. It's a really nice-looking one.
Love your helpful tutorials. Always a pleasure.
just found you and subbed
Regards, Rick
Nicely done.
Nice to see u back billy. Must say love the joint and its a beautiful thing. 👏👏🏴👍
It's good to take a break from time to time, especially with the holidays. I'm pretty pumped about making videos again.
@@NewtonMakes awesome can't wait
Great video
Haven't seen tour video in a while
New to your channel. Love the content. Keep up the great work!
I’m curious why you went with adjustment knobs on the jig itself and riding the jig against your fence instead of building the jig over your fence and letting your fence be the adjustment point.
Hi Thanks for the video. I think I'll give this a go. I get the feeling there is more on the way too. I also have the incra miter gauge but even though its dialled in at 90 I find I cant make precise angled cuts like you're doing, I notice there is some small deflection of the fence if I push right on the far end. Have you had any problems with yours? it would be really cool if there was a way to make a sled that fits the gauge and you could hold the work piece down whilst cutting like the incra miter express, without paying out silly money for some red MDF with a hold down.
That's nice, Billy. Is that big scroll saw video coming out soon?
Bill
It's assembled and sanded! I need to apply finish and a frame. It kicked my butt; however, it looks very cool!
Nice work, whats kinds of uses do you doing with your Dremel router jig?
I almost exclusively use it for drilling tiny holes.
3:35 I'm thrown off right here, later in the video the assembly is shown?
Cool joint! What counter sink bits do you use? I don’t see anything on your affiliate links list
Just dropped it in the description!
