Tools and Hardware Reviews of Big Horn 19066B Taper Jig
Customer Review: Just like dancing a jig.
Summary: 4 Stars
Well, it works very well. I am relatively new to woodworking, and have found that when building something that requires multiple tapers, you really can't go wrong with this jig.I recently built two chairs and a settee/glider using Redwood, which is very expensive wood in my area, and didn't want to take any chances when cutting out 12 tapered legs...wanted to be sure that they were all indentical.
This is certainly the trick for that. Even if you would be off 1/16th inch or so, all of the cuts will be the same. A minor mistake is moot because all legs turn out the same.
Very good product, easy to use, light weight and durable. You should have one of these when cutting multiple tapers.
Customer Review: It was missing two machine screws
Summary: 3 Stars
This works well and was easy to assemble but it was missing two machine screws that hold the curved guide. Luckily I had the parts left over from old project but nothing irritates me more than to get something, take it out of the box, start to put it together and find parts missing.Customer Review: As Advertised

Yes, anyone who might need this device could build it! I build one out scrap 2x4 a few years back for a specific project. This one is more compact,easier to use, much lighter, and in a well thought-out configuration. I, far-and-away, prefer to use jigs to make things then to build jigs.Customer Review: As Advertised

I purchased this thinking I would save the time of making one myself. Wrong. When you tighten the angle adjustemt screws, the jig no longer sits flat on the table saw surface. An inaccurate jig is worse than no jig at all. I tried slightly bending the adjusting arm to make the legs sit flat - no luck. A taper jig can be made with very little time and money - don't bother with this one.
