You'er Welcome smokeyone

Here's some more snapshots of the universal jig in place,,I was out in the shop today and pulled it off the wall for a quick show and tell..

It can do many,many router jobs i.e. lap joints,45 deg.laptop joints, sliding dovetails,dado slots for cabinet shelfs,and on and on ,it's a easy jig to make and use.
I didn't pull the lap joint blocks out of the box but I'm sure you will get it from the snaphots,this one is made with Maple but it can be just about anything you have in the shop it's 30" long so it can slip over just about any router table or stock for cabinet /book shelfs ends I just about always use 24 1/4" wide stock then rip it down to 12" wide shelfs that way they always match up...and it always comes out clean on the edges,without the rip out showing..

The bit below works well for lap joints plus for making hinges
