finally decided to build one yesterday... cut the materials and bought the hardware today...

I had minor alignment issues initially, but the fix was simple and easy, now works great...

Re: router mortice jig

test drive...ok na sana, very clean ang cut, but my bit is short, limited lang ang depth of cut...i think i really need a spiral up-cut bit afterall.

Re: router mortice jig

The jig looks much more simple than the ones i saw online.

Magawa nga. Unfortunately... my plunge router is stucked on the RT! 🙁

i used my 3612c both in and out of the table. tyagaan lang talaga sa pagtangal, i always remove my router after used, nasa labas kasi ng bahay ang rt ko (nag-iingat sa malilikot ang kamay) i guess i'm stucked on using this 3612c my other d-handle router seldom ko na gamitin...with this jig, mortising is a breeze to do, what more pa if you have a spiral up-cut bit...cheers, good luck sa pagawa mo ng jig
