The Tenon Fasteners

There are two versions of the table leg tenon fastener.

The first version is the 1/4″ Adaptable Tenon Fastener™

 

This includes a micro adjustment feature is only available on the 1/4″ fastener. This feature allows you to make micro adjustments to the x and y position of your table leg. This gives you the ability to fine tune the position of the table leg to account for any variance that may occur with the positioning of your table leg to the edge of your table top.

The second version is the 1/8in Tenon Fastener™

This is a light-weight version of the table leg tenon fastener. It does not have the micro adjustment holes and is perfect for lighter-weight applications like side tables and end tables. This is the most affordable fastener available and perfect for smaller projects. However, don’t be fooled by its weight and size! These little guys are extremely strong and can hold a lot of weight.

The Adjustable Mortise Jig™

The Adjustable Mortise Jig™ creates a shallow mortise and it is packed with features that help you create repeatable precision mortises every-time. This jig works with a standard plunge router that most of us already have in our wood shops. The adjustable mortise jig is designed to work with 1/4″ or 1/8″ template router bits and is made up of two components.
