left in the shop of the house I brought are many jigs, I am sure there are plenty of "one offs", which I'll never used. When I have a little down time, I try to figure them out. I am totally lost on a bunch. Here is one that is quite well made, so the accuracy should be there.
I figure it can be used as a slot cutter for edge jointer.
notice on pix. three, there are rails on the bottom to make sure it is pushed in equal on both sides.
pix. four shows a slot I made

It looks to me like it was made to create tenon cheek cuts on a table saw.

I think I know. In fact, I think you know.
It is resting on a non-Shopsmith table saw that is equipped with a home made outfeed table with rollers.

Dusty is right, it's is a Non SS piece of crap Table Saw, with no fence.
The jig was made for that table saw, I have to take off the runners and make some for my SS. I only hope the previous owner didn't glue the runners in. more work if he did.

Nice working to make to well balanced. The wood quality is also looking very
fine.
