Cutting stepped tenons - step four setting with the jig

Its all ready now to cut the long side of the tenon

Clamp the rail to the cross slide and set the cutter height to just take off the beveled side of the rebate

With a series of cuts, feed the rail towards the fence. DONT GO TOO FAR.


The last cut has to be set with the end of the screwed on jig set against the MDF pressing upto the fence. Once set and clamped, remove the MDF and make the final cut.

The other end needs cutting in the same way.
