Get the step-by-step plans to build this Router Mortising Jig from WoodsmithPlans.com.
The key to precise results is guiding the plunge router accurately so the sides of the mortise end up perfectly smooth, straight, and parallel to the faces of the workpiece.
This mortising jig is the way to go. It clamps to your workbench, and securing the workpieces in place only takes a second with a toggle clamp. Then, it’s a simple task to adjust the table and stops to locate the mortise on the workpiece.
Once everything is locked in place using the studded knobs and t-nuts, you can knock out identical mortises quickly, easily, and accurately using a spiral upcut router bit.
