I bought the system 2 years ago but it was not until about three weeks ago I took it out of the box. Needed to update my table and router before wasting my time. I watched the video and decided to PLAY. Bought some scrape wood and started learning. To learn you need scrape wood, patients and a pencil. It is important to mark the “In” or “OUT” side and the reference sides. DO not do as I did and start with scrape drawer mater that already has been cut for the bottom –that just created confusion. But I got it. It takes practice – it is not an out of the box system but anything that is good is not either. SO practice, make mistakes and learn. I am now making my own drawers for my cabinets with surprisingly positive results. Again take the time to practice first and make notes. Fred

This product is pure genius. You can make boxes quickly, simply and perfect everytime. Like any word working tool or project, practice always makes perfect, but this system practically makes the joints automatically. The DVD is a must, because the techniques that are shown, while simple, must be viewed at least once to really understand the concept. But once you've watched it, even woodworkers with beginner skills can quickly pickup the tricks and techniques and enjoy making wonderful projects. The spacers and fences make the system practically fool proof. I bought this at a woodworker show, and while I was impressed by the demonstration and also by using the project myself, the only complaint I have is that someone forgot to tell me about the 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 spiral bits were not included to make simple box joints. The kit came with a 3/16 bit for the fancy joints. It would have been nice to either sell the bits at the show or include them in th

Highly recommend! I have been using the Route-R-Joint kit since May 2008, and am able to make beautiful, perfect half blind dovetail joints to within .0015 inch gap between tails and pins,.using a feeler gauge from an auto supply store to measure. It’s a great jig for making drawers and boxes. I use it on my router table which has a Porter Cable 7518 3.25 hp router and a Woodpecker precision router lift. Yes, it does take a bit of practice to master. All dovetail jigs take time to learn – even if you buy a Leigh or Omnijig, it takes time to learn how to make a good joint. It may be difficult to learn how to get your bit height set correctly, which is where a router lift comes in handy – gaps in pins and tails are solely dependent on bit height and have nothing to do with the jig itself. This is true for all half blind dovetail jigs, whether the router table type or the hand held router type and no matter how much money you spend – even the most expensive jigs have a learning curve. The great thing about this kit, it comes with many templates, and they are quite economical. If you want perfect dovetail joints every time from the first piece of wood then your only other alternative is a CNC machine or a high production 3 thousand dollar dovetail machine, and with a machine, the joints will look like they came from a machine, instead of hand crafted. Some folks don’t have the patience or time to do dovetail work, if that’s the case, then just buy a drawer lock or 45 degree lock miter router bit for your joints instead.

I bought this jig just before X-mas 2008, and still have not had a perfect joint. No matter how I try to adjust the bushing, I have had no luck getting that perfect joint. Not sure if it is my router or not. An old 3 1/4 Freud FT2000E. Used the brass alignment pin which seems centered, but the joints still come out with gaps, if I can even get them together. Any help would be appreciated. Getting frustrated.
