Router Jigs & Guides

About

Router Jigs, Guides & Templates for Every Woodworking Application A router is only as accurate as the jig or guide directing it. This collection — with more than 125 products — spans the full breadth of router guidance: from simple edge guides and dado jigs to multi-component systems for lock miter setup, inlay routing, vertical panel work, and decorative circle cutting. Whatever the project, a well-chosen jig converts a freehand router into a repeatable precision tool. Jigs serve different functions within a workflow. Setup jigs set bit height and fence position before the first cut, eliminating trial-and-error in expensive stock. Template guides — base plates with guide bushings — transfer a pattern from a master template to the workpiece. Sleds support narrow or end-grain workpieces at the router table, preventing kickback and ensuring consistent positioning across a run of parts. Setup Jigs, Inlay Systems & Vertical Sleds The Lock Miter Master Jig simultaneously sets both bit height and fence position for perfect lock miter joints. The brass inlay kit with centering pin provides the matched bushing pair and spiral bit needed for precise two-pass inlay routing. A vertical router sled holds panels on edge for cope cuts, mortises, and bridle joints that require the workpiece to be presented vertically to the bit. Jigs in this collection work alongside bits from the joinery router bits and grooving router bits categories. Template routing requires the base plates and bushings found in router base plates & bushings . The parent routing collection covers the complete ecosystem of routers, tables, and accessories.
