KatieJig System - "It makes great dovetails and box joints."

 

    The illustration in the operating instructions shows how the bit depth should be set.  Once this depth is set, no further changes are required.

  The straight bit is mounted in the exact same fashion.

   Now it's time to mount the boards to the jig. I first place the jig upside down flat on the bench with the open end of the forks towards me.

Next I take two boards marked for corner number "1" and place them to the outside of the tail board which is facing me and the outside of the pin board is on the other side facing out. Both tops are facing to the right. If this sounds a bit confusing at first, the diagram makes it very clear.

 

Now I can place the boards on the KatieJig in that configuration making sure that the top of each board is up against the left hand edge stop. (On the even number corners, "Tops" are placed against the right hand edge stop.)
