Yes, I have many of them just about all I think but I don't have the Incra jig it's a bit to high price for me But this siding jig is so easy to make and it's cheap to make unlike the others.
And almost no setup is needed just the bit and set it then set the stock in place and push it into the bit.
Like I said the 1st. slot is easy but the 2nd. one that's the hard one to do and keep it true to the 1st.one ,but with the jig you just move it over and make the 2nd. one.
The real plus in this jig it can be used so many other ways,lap joints for just one.
Just popin a bottom bit, put on a stop block on the push jig and do both ends quick and easy, it can also do a 45deg. lap joint with a add on support part.
And as you know a lap joint is one of the quickest joints to make, I was using the radio arm saw to make this joint and it didn't always come out true and clean just like the table saw but with this jig it will when made on the router table.
Most take great care when making the router top table, it's flat and sq. the norm and with this quick jig I can take advantage of that .
