Title: Handle splicing jig.
Post by: Markus on April 05, 2011, 03:48:52 pm

I don`t know if all of you are familiar with this splicing jig. It appeared in PA volume 7 issue 4. It was by Mr. Tom Rogers and I hope he does not mind that I post pics of the jig I made after his drawings. I works very well.  Markus.

That's a pretty slick setup/jig!  Do you have any dimensions or pattern for it that can be shared?

I made one like that after seeing it in either PA or TB back a few years ago.  It never worked for me.  I get better results using a template and making the cuts by hand.  Yours sure seems to work.  Very nice.

Cool setup! I have trouble with drift on my bandsaw but I think if I fed the wood very slowly it would work well.

I made one. Dean shows how to make/use one in "Hunting The Bamboo Backed Bow".
