With a good shaper and proper, correctly adjusted shaper setups, stile & rail door parts that fit and look right, are made quickly and easily. 

The tenon setup, including the tenon jig is a crucial part of making your doors.   

Since the tenon is cut on narrow stock across the grain - the cut must be clean and the stock held square and level all the way through the cutter. 

Practically, you must have a good shaper with a true cutting spindle, good cope & stick cutters sharp and matched, and you must have a good jig that will hold up under the load of continuous work.  Then the tenon joints are tight and in accurate alignment every time. 

The jig needs a way to quickly secure the stock and clamp it with out wasting time.  It is necessary to have the guide bar on the jig riding in your shaper's miter slot,  adjusted for square and having no play in the groove. 

Weaver's coping cut (or, tenon) jigs are an essential part of your door production.

AIR TENON JIGS

PNEUMATIC / AIR TENON FIXTURES

Weaver is proud to introduce our Air Tenon Fixture. The jig is designed to cut tenons ("cross grain, rail end, cope cut") for production door manufacturers with effortless ease! 

This sliding hold down can accept stock of different widths while always maintaining uniform pressure even on cupped material. The pressure bar design actually flattens cupped material while the end cut is being made.  The Air Tenon Fixture travels in your shaper table's miter slot on a thin air cushion for an effortless operation. It operates at around 90 PSI. It will handle material up to 12" wide and 2-1/4" thick. 

To prevent chipping of the wood the sled has a built in wooden block behind the workpiece that keeps the back end of the cut from blowing out as you come out of the cutter.  ("blowout"), there is a backup wood block (Bolted On).   And, to protect your wood from marring there is a rubber pad on the steel pressure plate.

Note: Success in the tenon cut is the jig, material, and the "blowout block" (or "back up block") be square with the tenon fence or tenon guide. There are also allen screws ("set screws") in the guide bar for fine adjustment to ensure fit and square with your shaper's miter slot (or groove). Also, there are squaring bolts for the blowout block.
