Simple and accurate jig, accommodates varying finger widths better than router jigs. Just have to switch from my thin-kerf WWII to full kerf. How do you go about smoothing and rounding over the ends?
Would have been nice if he had explained what G&G actually is to those of us who do not know . I am still NONE the wiser . Looks like a simple finger joint to me .
Greene and Greene designed furniture and house interiors in the early 1900's. The protruding finger joints were one of their signature design elements. Google pictures for "Gamble House" for examples of their work with everything from kitchen cabinets, stairways, and bedroom furniture.
Very helpful! Thanks for sharing...

oh ! OK I didn't know there was a green and green way !…
Sorry I'm not in the US !
The fingers are a lot shorter than the usual protruding Greene & Greene style. The working concept still holds I guess.
Nice !
But why fingers have to extend the opposite fingers ? …
That was a design element of Greene and Greene, as were square ebony pegs.
