I love the Jig but was very frustrated trying to make the cut on the 10 x 10 fixture. I made everything according to your dims. but my cut did not look like yours. I fought with it for 4hrs and was going to trash it until I looked at your video again and saw what you did not tell us to do. That was you moved the 10 x 10 dowel to the upper hole. Now it works great. Thanks again for your instructions and info on how to make this Jig.

Glad you watched it again. I did it this way so you only had to drill once to get holes in the 2 boards. If I do another version I will figure out a fool proof way of doing that hole. Happy it worked out for you. Gary

Love the jig thanks for the hard work can't wait to make one! Thanks for your channel!
