Leigh FMT Jig
![]()
All milled aluminium construction. This is an exceptionally heavy duty jig that is used to route both the male and female portions of a mortise and tenon joint. Your plunge router is attached to a sub-base and the supplied templates are used to guide the router while you cut the joint features. The jig is able to be micro adjusted to ensure a perfect fit between your mortise and tenon. Both standard and compound angled joints are possible using the jig. The design has integrated dust collection that is compatible with 1-3/8" ShopVac hoses.
The jig comes with five templates and a matched cutter to manufacture 5/16" wide mortise & tenon joints. Different sized templates and cutters are available from online retailers such as Lee Valley Tools.
The following YouTube video explains how the jig is used:
