Looking for the instruction sheet for a Craftsman 9 3233 taper jig. I know what you're thinking, but if you happen to have a copy, please share it. Thanks.
Sent a request to them last week, but still no reply. Thanks.Craftsman 9-3233 taper jig is apparently now owned by American Freight (formerly Sears)
I've never heard of one of these. Does it work with the table saw or what? I generally use the jointer, or make a plywood sled for my table saw.I might have that tool if it looks like an A when opened up and is just a hinged pair of square steel tubes. They are extremely hard to use and set. I don't know if mine came with any instructions. The problem I find with it is that when you try to fine tune it it changes both ends instead of just the open end. It also doesn't have much of a hook on the end the keep it engaged with the work piece. For that reason I just attached some stops to a piece of plywood last time I needed to taper something instead of using that taper jig. I'm glad you posted this. I was planning on giving it away in the local buy and sell to free up wall space and had forgotten about it.
Yes; guides along the fence. The other replies in this thread pretty much sum up the shortcomings of the jig. It seems that most woodworkers have one hanging someplace, and it's covered with dust, and not sawdust. Fortunately for me, I don't have much of a need to taper pieces.I've never heard of one of these. Does it work with the table saw or what?
