Hi John

Are you sure ?, most standard hinges are 1/4-inch radius butts .

Because the jig is setup to use the sandard template and the 1/2" bit you will need to play with other bits to get what you want..
You could try a 3/4" mortising bit that may do the job but will need to check out the "out cut" so the butt is just right, the screws don't hold the weight the mortis pockets do most of the work... you may just want to use a hand carving chisel to get the corners just the way you want them to be.
