Has anyone tried this jig?

Or do you know of a better one?

Thanks,

S.

Yeah, the guy that came up with it. Just what would it take to be
"better"?

If your miters are exact you can get by with masking tape in the corners.
Biscuits would also help to add strength.

FYI, I made this jig in less than an hour out of 3/4 plywood
and wingnuts. I drill pressed holes every inch up and down
the slats so it can be adjustable for any size frame. It worked
great for gluing a frame square and solid.

It's the same basic concept as a Clampmate
