UJK Dovetail Jig Processes

Setting up jig for the ‘Pin’ boards
18. Remove the four countersunk hex screws and turn
the aluminum template around so the word ‘Pins’ faces
the front of the jig, re fix the hex screws, see fig 24.
19. With the ‘Tail’ board still in place in the horizontal
location and the comb bar seated level across this, place
the ‘Pin’ board with the front face of the board facing
the user, in the vertical position on the jig. Slide this up
so that it is level with the underside of the comb, then
slide the ‘Pin’ board to the left to meet the preset side
location stop, (as set in step 9). Fix this in place with
eccentric cam bar. Move the ‘Tail’ board back away from
the meeting point of the joint, as again this cutter will
cut all the way through the timber, see fig 25.

21. On the face of the template is one preset line that
runs across the comb, this needs to line up with the
back face of the position ‘Pin’ board, to adjust this to
line up slacken the black star knobs and adjust the
brass depth adjustment wheel forward or backwards
and then re tighten the star knobs to fix in place, check
that the comb is now seated evenly on the timber. This
is important as if not correctly lined up the joint will be
out of square, see fig 27-28-29.

22. Replace the extraction support, upon the jig, position
the router on the jig and connect to power supply. Start
the router and cut the joint making sure not to force the
router through the work, this will help reduce breakout
on the back edge, remember that harder materials will
need more time, again work from left to right, see fig 30.
