20150027587 | Router Jig for Producing Tenons - An apparatus used for cutting tenons consists of a plurality of mounting brackets, a plurality of arms, a motor, and a pair of threaded rods. The plurality of mounting brackets attaches the apparatus to an external platform. The motor is mounted onto one of the plurality of arms allowing the motor to slide along the length of the arm. The log in which the tenon is to be cut is placed in between the pair of threaded rods. By rotating the log with the use of one of the threaded rods or with the use of a drill, the log makes contact with the motor. The rotating motion of both the log and also the motor, results in a tenon being cut on the log. Additionally, two motors can also be used in tenon cutting such that a tenon with different diameters can be cut simultaneously. | 01-29-2015 |
