Adjust the top and front clamp bars via the clamp
adjusting knobs at either end of each bar so that the
wood is held firmly in place. When narrower pieces of
timber are being worked it is best to use a packing
piece of the same thickness at the opposite end of the
clamp bar to ensure an even grip and to avoid
distorting the bars. Align the timber so that the piece forming one of the sides of the drawer, mounted in
the front vertical clamp, extends above the front edge
of the jig by the thickness of the piece to be mounted
in the top horizontal clamp (front or back of drawer).
The piece in the top clamp is then butted up to this so
that both are flush under the finger guide (see Fig 6).
