Way back in time, perhaps three years ago now, I was struggling with installing small hinges on small boxes. I made jigs for guides that I used for cutting morises for the hinges and showed them on the forum.
The jigs worked but they were a pain to make and to use by the way.
Nobody said a word, at least not to me, but now I'm wondering if some of you decided to play a joke on Jerry, maybe even start a lottery to bet on how long it would tke him to discover the "Jigit". Well today I stumbled on to it. Just joking of course about the lottery, but I wouldln't put it pass you guys if you had thought of iit.
I should have realized early on that such a tool did exist as the job of setting up to route out the mortises is undoubtedly one that is often in need of. I do not have a clue why I did not look for such a tool until now.
If I ever get back to the shop, the first new tool that I am going to buy is the Jigit.
Let me know what your experience has been with the tool if you have ever used it.
Here is the link to what I watched today.
