Review on πŸ”§ MICROJIG TJ-5000 Tapering Jig: The Ultimate Woodworking Tool for Table Saw, Router Table, and Band Saws with GRR-RIPPER Compatibility by Steven Loy

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Two additional handles are required for safe use.

I bought this for making straight cuts in rough wood rather than double taping the ruler and using a stop. This setup is very sketchy, especially when the board is longer than the top of the saw. The two captures and associated costs need to be installed and the whole setup is still not that reliable. I'm not talking logs, I'm talking wood 1x8 2S. 4 or 5 feet long. I wouldn't buy this again. I like Gripper's product more than nothing, that's not one of them.

Pros
  • Durable Test Results
Cons
  • Safety
