This week I’m building a simple spline jig. Plans are available on my website https://almfab.com/plans This jig can be built in less than an hour with plywood scraps and works on any table saw or router with a fence. Splines reenforce miter joints and they look good too. I use them in my shop on picture frames and decorative boxes. Big thanks to long time supporter of my channel, Rockler!
