🛠️ A reverse glue joint router bit is a specialized woodworking tool designed to create interlocking profiles on the edges of boards, enhancing both alignment and bonding strength during glue-ups.

🔍 Key Features

  • Interlocking Profile: Cuts a matching tongue-and-groove-like pattern on both edges of two boards. When reversed and joined, the profiles fit snugly together.
  • Enhanced Glue Surface: Increases the surface area for glue, resulting in a stronger, more durable joint.
  • Self-Aligning: The tapered or stepped profile helps draw boards into alignment during clamping, minimizing the need for additional planing or sanding.
  • Versatile Use: Ideal for edge-joining panels, tabletops, doors, and furniture components. Works with hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and composites.
  • Router Compatibility: Can be used in table-mounted routers or CNC machines. Requires boards to be planed to uniform thickness and the bit centered precisely.

🧰 How It Works

  1. Run one board through the router with the bit centered.
  2. Flip the second board and run it through the same way.
  3. The reversed profiles interlock perfectly, creating a flush, secure joint.

When clamping, apply enough pressure to seal the joint, but too much pressure may distort the wood.  This bit is featured on our DVD9.  Carbide tipped.

Great Asset to Have

I used the reversible glue joint router bit to build several deep drawers almost 12” deep. All the stock wood available in my area was 5” to 6.5” wide. I had no choice but to join these narrow pieces of stock together to make wider planks. The reversible glue joint bit came in handy for this and worked as expected. It did take a few tries to adjust correctly but once that was done the rest was a breeze. Its important to have scrap pieces of wood available to practice on prior to making your final cuts in your finished wood. Works fantastic. See attached photos. 1st photo shows deep drawers with wide planks joined together. You can tell the joint location because poplar wood had different shades but joint itself is flawless. 2nd pic shows a wide ash wood plank (32”) with dark stain where joint is completely invisible.
