Deluxe Push Block

don1 · 03-17-2009, 11:15 PM

Your right on ,, the one on the bottom is the one that guides the push block do the rail, the 2nd 1/4" one is in place to make sure it slides free without any hang up from the 3/4" main base jig...,the 3/4" one needs to go all the way down in front and flush..so the 1/4" needs to keep it running free and smooth ..one can be eliminated if you only one to use it for one size of slots..
I will note if you set it up right you can use it to put in 3/4" box joints...and blind box joints.. all with the same jig........

Hey Bob:
Why not just use one 1/2" sliding bottom piece instead of two 1/4" pieces?

Hello Guys

I don't have my oak park jigs yet but going to get the push block and dust collector/ vac hookup BobJ showed in his pic. I did like the one Benny did also.

I have acouple questions since I am working just off pics. The slide on the right side, that moves in or out to adjust to the width of the runner that the completed fingers slide on...correct?

That bing tru it needs to adjust from 1/4 " to 3/4"? The face board dosn't move so the opening in it needs to be just a little over 3/4' wide by how high?

The opening for the bit I just let the bit make on the first pass.....after
removing a bit of the sandpaper?

Also on that stacked bit that Bobj did for 1/8" box joint. What is that blade or combination of blades called? Do I need bearing in between each blade? also is there a reason a 1/8" oak park type jig wouldn't work?

Thanks for the help and the awsome ideas.

Hi Mike

I will say it's best to have the OP jigs in your hand 1st..then it will make sense

The slide part is need to keep it running true with the ploy.guide in the OP jigs..
The guide part of the jigs are up buy 1/4" off the main body of the jig..

" What is that blade or combination of blades called? " I think you are talking about the bit below.
1 PC 1/2" SH 5 Slots Adjustable Box Joint Router Bit - eBay (item 140319383689 end time May-14-09 17:10:49 PDT)

" also is there a reason a 1/8" oak park type jig wouldn't work? "

I have not tried it but my guess, the guide would be just to thin,it would flex I would guess,,but all things can be done...but can it be done over and over without a error.. and 1/8" bits like to break very easy..that's why slot cutters work so well..

the mass of the cutter keeps them running true..

Hello Bob J

I am shure it would be a little easier with the jig in hand but I am off work waiting for it to dry out so I can paint so need something to do.

Patience is a virtue but I not very virtues. Never had much and don't seem to be getting any better when it comes to new toys.

I probably won't get the oak park jigs for a little while. I am going to try some small tennon and morter boxs. Also mite try Harry's cuff link box but will rechristen a ring box.....may make momma happy.

I am shooting for the router and set up bars now and then will work on a few bits. I think I have enough now to do the small boxs I want to try.

Thanks Mike R

Hey BJ. I was just admiring your box joint pushblock used with the Oak Park jigs. I haven't seen this approach before and I thought it was a good idea. I try to avoid ordering stuff from out of the country because of high custom duties and handling charges here in Norway, not to mention transport/mailing costs. I thought those Oak Park slider jigs looked pretty easy to make, "look" being the key word here. What is your opinion on this?

Mike

Hi Mike

Yes ,you can make your own easy,I made one for the 3/4" to 1" wide box joints it's a copy cat of the OP jig, I used one of the Poly.cutting boards for the stock..it's slick just like the OP jig..

Bob,
I noticed the router table that you are using. Who makes it or is it one you put together?
