Probably a 1970s or 1980s model, this was found and purchased in Fridley, Minnesota while on a Tour d'Arn with a bunch of OWWMers. The tenoning jig is virtually unchanged from the originals, but is now out of production. This particular tenoning jig was found in pretty rough shape, with lots of rust, and came with a rather uncomfortable black plastic handle. A shop-made maple handle, based upon my Stanley No. 7 plane tote was fabricated as a replacement.

Finally updated to include some rather crude cellphone photos of "before," and a comparison of four different handles: the original black plasticky thing, an stanly #7 tote, a discrded replacement, and the final product.
