A friend of mine loaned me a Fuse Jig to use and I was hooked!
Decided to make one instead of buy one. I was making a Cabinet for my wife and made this while I was at it.

The jig looks great.  Nice when you can do it yourself and if it works even better.  DOC Holliday

Richard, I used a Dado joint on the up rights held together with "Titebond" and pressed with pipe clamps while checked for square when setting up. I actually used a router to cut the slots for the up rights to be adjustable but there is no dowel because I want to be able to match the curve of the fuse as it tapers at the front and aft. I put a slot every 5". I bought some 1/4" X2" pan head bolts at Lowes for the up rights. There is a square tab just under the head of the bolts that fit nicely into the slot when tightening down the wing nuts. I put three coats of Rustoleum enamal with sanding at each coat to make the operations smooth. (No finish on the bottom of the uprights, just sanded) I had thought about glueing felt to bottom of upright but mine works smooth. You could build a band on the bottom side to hole it off the table but I just installed 8 screw on feet for clearance. This wood is cabinet grade 7 layer ply. should last a life time. Good luck!
