- Learn how to make a simple router jig for cutting dado joints.
Dado Jigs are handy items for making shelving units and for cutting the slots that shelves fit into making them sturdy and professional looking. This jig uses a Top Mounted Bearing Router Bit, sometimes called a Template Bit, and makes excellent adjustable dado widths.

Simple, effective and accurate. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the tip on this. Built the jig yesterday and this morning (early - sorry, neighbours) I'm routing perfect Dados.
Built this jig "exactly" as described in the video, EXCEPT, I didn't have 3/4" plywood, so I used 5/8". I also purchased the Diablo template router bit, but didn't realize that the cutting area was so large. I'm using it on my Ryobi trim router, and I discovered that, with 5/8" plywood, the bearing would not ride on the edge of the jig; it was still up within the router guide. I put 1/4" plywood under each of the jig sections, which brought the height to about 1". Extending the router bit all the way out, I was able to make a dado in my shelf unit that was half the thickness of the 5/8" plywood being used. An excellent, simple jig for dadoes for one who does not make many dadoes. Maybe I'll be able to make more now that I have the jig.
Your simple and quickly built jig is perfect for those of us who only occasionally cut dados and who just want to get on with our projects without having to waste a lot of time making something fancy that will seldom be used.
I love watching your videos. I learn something every time. I have always run my dadoes all the way out for shelves and used iron on edge trim to cover seams. Never again. Thanks soooo much.
You should be called the Kindness Woodworking Web...so grateful for you!! Thx, Lisa
Used the process you demonstrated to cut some dados for a book shelf I’m building and it worked beautifully! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
As you often demonstrate Colin, the simple ideas are often the best.
Wish I had had you for shop a century ago you don't miss a step and you don't talk down assuming everyone knows what you do. Thanks a bunch.
I love how happy you are!! Your excitement made your video awesome not to mention very informative. Thank you !!
Whilst the whole thing could have been refined, you kindly show us another way to accomplish this task.
I plan on building my shelves with this method. Thank you Colin, keep pumping out your videos Buddy!
Such a simple but perfect jig, and the trick with the shim and shelves to cut a perfect fit Thank You as always.
Nice

This is much easier/better than any other dado jig I’ve seen!
Your good spirits is contagious, greetings from Panama
This was a great lesson all the way around. Thank you so much!
Great jig and as a newcomer to woodworking I found the top for trimming the shelf very helpful, I would never have thought of it and tried to butcher the dado. Thanks so much for your very helpful and educational videos!

I woke up this morning; and, as I was preparing for my day, I thought: "What can I do today?"
Then, I thought: "I know; I can watch Colin Knecht on RUclips!"
That's, literally, what I thought -- obviously, I enjoy watching Colin Knecht on RUclips!
This is the first of his videos which showed up this morning; I have watched many of them several times -- they are, always, informational and entertaining.
Colin, thankyou for this presentation . . . Chris . . . Norwich, England

Slick design...easiest jig I have seen yet.. Thanks!!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
Nice. This will work way better than my cheapo table saw.
Magic! You make everything look easy. Great Video
Thank You!
I made myself a very similar jig some time ago too, but I also stuck some fine sandpaper to the bottom of the jig to help stop it slipping when it use.
Brilliant. Thanks for another useful tip.
You're welcome Layne
Top Tip!!
When I look at the fancy do dars I have for cutting Dados, and the the 'Exact' dado jig with sliding bars and lock nuts. You come along and show me/ us how we waste money. 'Why' didn't you show us this at least three years ago? I / we could have saved a lot of money. So simple and no expense. Big thanks Colin, I will definitely be saving a couple of off cut boards and making this Jig.
What a great Jig, Thanks for the video.
You're welcome Bob
Nice jig

Freud is trend upside down lol never noticed that before!
Great video. Very helpful. I'm a beginner building a mobile closet on wheels for my garage. Trying to decide which is best to use to make dado cuts between radial arm saw, table saw or router.
simple = clever design! Thanks.
You're welcome
Nice dude. Good work!
I wish I had a Freud router!
good job, my friend! i enjoy all your videos, & always looking forward to the next ones
Thank You!
Brilliant and simple. I feel stupid that I didn't think of it 😄
good one .old school jig but still works great,,have you ever used a splining bit,we use them for putting 2 pieces of plywood together for over size bulkheads..but they work great if you have 2 small pieces of plywood to make a bigger size piece.
