Cabinetman - Mike,
That's a COOL jig!!
It took me awhile to GET the clamp procedure... then it hit me... you're just clamping the workpiece to the crosspiece of the T square!! Ingenius!!
I was thinking that a cabinet clamp like a Jorgy or Bessy might be easier to use... AND a piece of backerboard could be placed over the far end of the workpiece (where clamped) to reduce tearout... Yes? What do you think?
Does the router you're using have a square base to be sure it guides 'straight' along the jig side? ... or is your round base uniformly centered making it accurate in case the router got turned on the way across the cut?
I LIKE your jig!!
The NICE part being "line it up and cut" feature... saving time & being accurate! ... to say nothing about the unique way of clamping it!!
Do I have your permission to add it to my web page 'collection'?
Thank you... |
