One ha1 note. We're looking for an

editor to join us here at August

Home Publishimg. If you're enthusi-

astic about woodworking or home

improvement and enjoy working as

part of a team, we'd liketo hear from

you. Send a cover letter and a

resume highlighting your experi-

cant improvements.

First, to getaprecise fit we wanted

to eliminate any rackjng in the jii.

Second, we wanted to reduce the

amount of set-uptime involved when

making different size box joints.

Box Joint Jig - Our new Box Joint

Jig has an easy-tobuild, dual-runner

system, which prevents racking and

any sideto-side movement.

Butwhat I like best about this jig is

what you don't have to do - readjust

it. A system of replaceable fences

means that setup is now a one-time

deal - no matter what size box joint

you're making.

Squaring Box Corners for Gluing

="LA y,",";

THICKNESS OF

Whenever I'm assembling a box

or drawer, I feel like I need two pairs

of hands - one to hold the assembly

square and another to apply the

clamps. To make things a little easier,

1came up with some squaringblocks

to help hold the pieces squarewhile I

clamp them together.

I made my squaring blocks out of

plywood. The base is just a square

piece of 3/4" plywood. Ibetop layer is

actually made up of three separate

pieces of plywood, see detail drawing

at &ht The trick is to glue these

three pieces down squarely to the

base so that the space in between

them matches the thichess of the

workpieces you are clamping up.

W Whenever I use a can of paint or

finish, the liquid always runsfrom my

brush into the groove around the rim

of the can, making a mess when 1

replace the lid. To prevent this from

happening, I cut a "donut" out of 1/4"

hardboard and simply taped it down

to the top of the can, see photo.

The donut keeps the ikish out of

the groove of the can and also pre

vides a convenient place to wipe off

the excess finish from my brush.
