- In this video I take a look at the Ryobi Hinge Mortising Jig. I got quite a few DMs from carpenters saying they used this jig so I figured I'd give it a shot and see if it surprised me. I was pleasantly surprised with this jig.

THANKS FOR SUPPORTING THIS CHANNEL BY VISITING THESE AFFILIATE LINKS!!!
I am about to start working on some 25 doors in an old mansion, just bought this jig to try it and lo and behold here is a video by a master who just saved me a ton of grief and time by explaining its quirks. thanks
Spencer thanks again for great info. I am a 76 year old practicing carpenter with one eye. If you dont start wearing eye protection you might just suffer some horrific consequences ......its just a matter of time. With respect, Roger
One of the best reviews I’ve ever watched ! Simple and to the point . Thanks bud
Makes me feel better. I got 10 slab doors to replace tomorrow and just picked up this jig.
I've been in the door business since 86. I've got an old school Porter Cable kit in the old steel case. A couple years ago, I saw the Ryobi hanging at the store and said what the heck, I've got to try it. I haven't pulled out my Porter Cable kit since. I really like it. Just wish they made a more robust version for pros.
Thank you! I was looking for that info right at the
Informative, has key details. I'm very grateful for your analysis of this jig and putting your advice to use right now.
Spencer, thanks for a great video and sharing your expertise and skill with us. Your voice is clear, and the video shots are excellent. It's a delight to see a real craftsman at work. With your guidance I think I'll be able to make this tool work.
Thanks for the info,I used the jig out of the box and my door was binding on the stop,now I know why,it is going in the bin.
Thanks for the good, clear description of how to use this jig.
Very well explained.
Thanks for sharing this great information. Keep the videos coming.
Totally agree. It's not bad. I have used these quite a bit, and while they're not the most precise hinge mortising option, they're good until the plastic gets worn out from bearing freeze and the occasional touch from the bit. When it gets a little wonky you toss it and spend $30 to get a new one. The one I have isn't as fancy as this one, but I guess that makes sense. I'm not nearly as fancy as Spencer. 😄 Nice review sir!
I wish I had seen this a month ago. I just replaced 4 old doors and the checking the jig on the old door tip would have saved me some extra work. Thanks for these videos.
The best in depth informative review and professional quality tips of use I’ve see about this fixture so far. Thank you
I'm very impressed with your instructions and explanations!!! Excellent clarity along with your advice!!! Thank you and keep up the good work!
I recently used this jig to replace the slabs in my home and had EXCELLENT results, though practicing on the old doors is paramount. For my application, the proper hinge backset was achieved with a 1/32 cardboard shim in lieu of the 1/16 rubber ones. I also found the hinge height to be a bit inconsistent due to slop in the height selector. Some cardboard shims to force it toward the smaller side of the setting fixed it. Also, mine needed a little filing on the plastic 5/8 radius pieces to get a fair transition to the straights. Finally, some practice on lining the jig to your layout lines is worth the trouble...take the line vs. leave the line stuff. A great jig for the price.
Great way to start the day! As always Great job. I have one in my 🚪 kit and it hasn't let me down yet
Thanks for reviewing this. I have a few minor projects I need it for and while I hate buying tools that aren’t quality this was perfect and super cheap.
