Routing
- Place the router on the template ensuring that the router bit does not touch the workpiece.
- Switch on. Make one very light cut from left to right, cutting only the front edge. This prevents breakout.
- Rout carefully from left to right following the fingers of the template with the template guide.
- Switch off the router and carefully remove from jig.
- Check that all slots are routed clean. If not, rout again.
- Remove the workpiece from the jig.
- Test joint.
ATTENTION!
Do not lift the router from the template as damage to the template and router bit will occur.
If the joint is not perfect :
Joint too loose = increase cutting depth of router bit.
Joint too tight = decrease cutting depth of router bit.
Joint too shallow = move template towards the jig body.
Joint too deep = move template away from the jig body.
STANDARD RABBETED 12,7mm (1/2“) HALF BLIND DOVETAIL JOINT Illustration 27-30
Use standard template . Each part of joint is routed separately.
Note : In most cases, the rabbeted joint is used only on the drawer front. If you wish to use a standard half
blind joint to connect the drawer sides to the back, make this joint using the instructions in the previous
section.

Drawer front preparation
- Prepare workpiece about 19mm ( 3/4”) longer and wider.
- Rout 9,5mm (3/8”) wide and 11,1mm (7/16”) deep rabbet into the edges of the workpiece.
- Place a 9,5mm (3/8”) thick wooden spacer into front clamp and push tight against edge guide.
- Tighten the front clamp bar knobs .
- Place drawer front under the top clamp and butt against the wooden spacer and the edge guides. The top of
the drawer front must be flush with the face of the spacer as shown in illustration 29.
- Tighten top clamp bar knobs.
- Remove the spacer from front clamp.
- Adjust the template position to align the setting line with the edge of drawer front. One rotation of adjustment
nut equals 1mm.
- Tighten template assembly knobs.
- Attach template guide to router base.
- Install the dovetail bit in the router.
- Adjust the cutting depth of the dovetail bit according to the table.
Note : Recommended bit depths are approximate only, always make test cuts in scrap stock to determine the
exact depth for your application!
