Does anyone have one of these?

I don't have one but it sure does look like the SS tenon jig.

Bet the miter bar doesn't fit a Mark x SS. Probably will fit a '10'.

Not looking to buy one but to make one for the SS. I have the C-Clamp assemblies.

Those screw mounted clamps caught my eye! Where did you get em?

I have one. I cannot remember where I got it. Most likely a yard sale. But, I didn't change the miter bar as it's integral...part of the casting. It does fit the SS slot. It's simple, safe and handy.
It's marked Craftsman. They must have made a model for the SS but, there's no marking to indicate such. I guess I got lucky.

There are 3 clamps with mine. Dunno why. Can only use, two.

I always thought that the SS tenon jig was a bit on the small size. You can make one to fit your requirements.

I have one in a gray finish also labeled Craftsman. I had it for a previous table saw(craftsman) and I had to file the miter bar just a bit to get it to fit the shopsmith slot. It is very light weight, all cast aluminum I guess. I haven't used it in years...... not even sure where it is now. Craftsman use to have an undersized miter slot so it did not fit my rockwell saw, too sloppy to even think about using.

I guess that's why mine fits. Mine's got a metallic finish. Or, no finish, might be bare pot metal.

I had to go look at mine... I could not find a brand name or any markings at all except for the scale pinned to the base plate and that is just the marks and numbers.
I guess I got it at a garage sale, I forget.
Picture 1 shows a lot of holes.
I'm not sure where the blue tint in pic 3 came from.
Picture 4 shows the cross channel in the upper part that allows you to turn it 90 degrees. Might be useful for router table use?
Picture 5 shows the adjustable miter slot bar. It should fit about any slot width.
