For anyone building rustic furniture, the Veritas aluminum-body tenon cutters will cut smooth, perfect tenons with radiused shoulders. Cutters are designed to run vibration free while being driven by an electric drill, yet still yield the same accuracy when used with a hand brace. The anodized body has been balanced to eliminate vibration and an integral level vial makes in-line cutting more accurate. To increase safety, the back end of the blade is contoured to avoid anything extending beyond the revolving aluminum body. The body has a built-in honing guide for easy sharpening of blades on a drill-press mounted drum sander. The blade is adjustable to cut the exact size of tenon required in both dry and green wood. Available in eight cutting diameters. Sizes 5/8″ to 1″ cut 2-3/4″ long tenons and are typically used for most rustic furniture. Sizes 1-1/4″ to 2″ will cut 4-1/4″ long tenons and are used for larger structural connections, such as bed frame to post, or fence (more…)

Rockler 3/4'' Tenon-Lok Cutter Dovetail Drill Bit

Avoid the possibility of joint failure in your chairs, stools, or log furniture with this clever expanding cutter and wedge-ring system. The high-speed steel Tenon-Lok cutter features spring-action blades that flare out at the base, creating a dovetail-shaped round mortise. The sharpened tapered steel wedge-ring then sits in the flared mortise, expanding the tenon with minimal splitting as it gets driven into place. The resulting joint will never come apart, and is completely immune to weather related expansion and contraction. Ideal for repairs or original construction, the Tenon-Lok system requires both a cutter and a matching wedge ring (Rockler# 39604, sold separately in convenient multi-packs). Every Tenon-Lok cutter includes a steel Setter Guide to create an impression on the base of the mortise for the wedge ring to rest in. Using the Tenon-Lok system: 1. Drill a standard round mortise with a forstner bit or another bit of your choice. 2. Chuck the same diamete (more…)
