Microjig’s innovative Lock Mitre Bit & Fitfinder Jig Kit streamlines the process of setting up and gluing accurate, strong lock mitre joints.
It delivers perfect results every time with a minimum of fuss. The ideal next step for all woodworkers who are looking to expand their router table’s potential.
Lock mitre bits are designed to create corner joints at a 90° angle where the apex of the joint is barely visible. This joint makes it easier to assemble boxes and larger carcass work pieces together and significantly increases joint strength by increasing the gluing surface area. It’s a fantastic joint with plenty of applications, but the bit and the stock have to be exactly centred together.
Microjig have solved this set-up problem. Their innovative Lock Mitre Bit features a Centre Finding Platform milled into the bit body at the precise centre of the cutting profile. The FitFinder Jig accurately finds the centre of any piece of stock and transfers it to the bit, instantly allowing you to set the exact bit height required.
Microjig’s groundbreaking Lock Mitre Bit revolutionizes precision setup for immaculate joints while its distinct features, such as built-in “Glue Wells,” strengthen efficiency and workmanship. The FitFinder setup Gauge can be used for any layout task where finding the exact centre of a piece of stock is required.
The Microjig Lock Mitre Bit and Fitfinder Jig Kit includes:
- 1 x MicroJig Lock Mitre Bit MB-0500750-LM
- 1 x MicroJig FitFinder Setup Gauge FN-12
These bits work with stock from 13mm to 19mm thick and must be used in a router table with fence.
Features:
- Exclusive centre-finding platform streamlines setup, assures perfect joints and eliminates guesswork.
- The FITFINDER 1/2 Gauge automatically finds the centre of your workpiece using simple geometry.
- The bit is always centred on the stock thickness
- Unique built-in “Glue Wells” ensure a tighter joint fit; a small slot within each groove means excess glue does not block the joints from closing fully. Fewer clamps are needed, and rock-solid joints are achieved.
- Patent-pending centre finding platform and router collet safety line make the Fitfinder Lock Mitre Router Bit a breeze to set up accurately, no matter your skill level.
