A corner dovetail rebate joint can be achieved in any
board thickness above 12mm in 2 passes using the ¾”
guide bush & dovetail cutter -
NB
- The cutter will need to be loaded in through the
base of the router with the ⅝" guide bush already in
position, 19-20.
DO NOT RELEASE THE PLUNGE FULLY
WHEN CUTTER IS FITTED
, the cutter will be damaged
as it passes through the inner guide bush.
1)
Attach comb B with the long groove slot at the front
of the jig, see fig 21 move both side stops to a central
position & lock in place, see fig 22.
3)
Use the wider part of the set gauge to position board
edge to the centre of the comb slot, see fig 25-26.

2)
Mark a line ⅔ thickness of the board, see fig 23 & load
in the horizontal board. Support board gainst the left
hand side stop ensuring that the comb is sat flat on the
board, a support board with equal thickness to the cut
board may be required to support the comb when using
narrow boards, see fig 24.
4)
Plunge the cutter down through the comb slot to set
the cutter depth to the marked pencil line, see fig 27.
Attach the magnetic extraction at the right hand end
of the support bar, see fig 28 or on a larger width board
attach the right hand side stop to the right hand end of
the jig to support the magnetic extraction. Alternatively
the router’s in built extraction nozzle can be used, see fig
29-30.
