Make PERFECT half lap joints with this simple jig | FREE PLANS
If you want to make half lap joints, you can easily do it on a table saw. The only downside is that it is very time-consuming.
For an upcoming project, I don't need one half lap joint, but a lot of them! So I needed a solution to make them much faster.
That's why I made this half-lap joint jig that fits on my table saw crosscut sled, but this jig can be used on a router table as well. This DIY table saw jig is an easy beginner project thanks to the free woodworking plans you can download to build this simple jig.
