Tapering Jig ID...

[darita]

I'm trying to find or make this jig.  Anyone know if the board used is a Festool MFT top?  I think the clamps are Veritas.

No, that is not a MFT top.

thats not an mft top. but an mft top would do the same thing.

if i was making it i would use the kreg clamp table t track extrusions and clamps. it would be infanitly variable

I had to look it up .. http://www.finewoodworking.com/how-to/video/tablesaw-tapering-jig-is-safer-and-faster.aspx

.. similar in principle I feel

Personally I like the idea of the sliding jig using one of the saw table tracks - not just the fence, much safer.

What makes it for me is the l shaped part clamped to the fence, you can taper long legs whithout having to juggle holding the sled up and feeding into a miter slot.
