Making Standard Dovetail
Joints and Box Joints
1. Assemble dovetail/box joint bar to
table as instructed above.
2. Select two pieces of wood of the
same thickness.
3. Adjust router so that the bit height
exactly matches the height of one
piece of wood laid horizontally. If you
wish to sand joint flush after
assembly, set cutter slightly deeper.
Securely tighten the router bit.
4. Offset the two pieces of wood 1/2"
and clamp them together. See Figure
46.

Mounting the Bar
Use spacer bar (either 3/8" or 1/4") to
position dovetail/boxjoint bar. Position
dovetail/boxjoint bar so that the space
between the bar and the bit is equal to
the bit and bar width (either 3/8" or
1/4"). For easiest measuring, use the
spacer bars provided as a measuring
device.
