Making Jigs and Fixtures (Paperback)

If power tools provide the muscle you need to work wood, then jigs and fixtures provide the finesse. These shop-made accessories make your tools safer, more accurate, and easier to use, expanding your shop's versatility by allowing you to perform more woodworking techniques with the tools you already own. This step-by-step pictorial manual shows you how to design and build jigs for every operation in your shop, choose materials for strength and durability, and where to purchase particular hardware. It also gives you a "craftman's dozen" - a special section with detailed plans and instructions for 12 jigs and fixtures that you'll use every day.
