Anybody have any experience with the Mastercraft joint making jig. Other than a web page from woodworker.com ordering info, I can't find out who the manufacturer is, or if there is a web page on this particular tool it looks very interesting. :cool:

it's the house brand of Canadian Tire, a (surprise! Canadian) national chain of a sort of cross between Pep Boys, Sears and HD.

If it's blue with some yellow (like knobs or handles), it's THAT Mastercraft.
If it's THAT Mastercraft, most products are on the very low end of quality but with pricing that's surprisingly in the middle of the pack.

Hope this helps. Howard

Do you really mean Mastercraft? The woodworker.com site doesn't recognize that name. However, it does know about an elaborate thing named Matchmaker. It is painted green and yellow, and is sold by Woodworkers Supply, so the name on the box is likely Woodtek. Woodtek is a house brand of Woodworkers Supply. It covers tools mostly built in by anonymous shops in Taiwan. They may now source tools from China, too.
