Hi Berry
You can put on a stop block in place but the norm you don't need one because you can see the bit at the start and the end of the slot...
To add a stop block, just take some scrap stock and go across the two upright parts of the jig, small dry wall screws will do the job..then all you need is drop and slot from one stop block to the other...I would also add a stop block for the stock you want the slot in, so you can just slide it in place and lock it in place for all the parts you need to do..

slide in and lock in place with the wedges.

This seems really difficult because when the router is 'twisted' to bring the bearings into contact with the side of the work piece, the base will be at a sharp angle relative to the work.
Thanks in advance. |
