Dovetail jig—SOLO BEGINNER PACK

Description

Dovetail jig—SOLO BEGINNER PACK

The dovetail jig SOLO BEGINNER PACK is our hero piece—designed to introduce you to the easiest jig on the market today!

To get you started in fine box making, we suggest you buy…

The A10 template—it’s our most popular dovetail template because of the versatile timber thickness range [5mm—13mm]. The thinner end of the range is ideal for smaller boxes. Use thicker material to make carcasses for larger dovetailed boxes. Think of the possibilities in the home and the workshop!

The dovetail jig SOLO BEGINNER PACK contains:

• a standard jig body with stops
• one standard template of your choice [see below for options]
• cutters to suit your template
• and finally, an instruction manual.

Standard templates available for your jig:

The productive area between stops on the jig is approximately 300mm. See the gallery to view a larger image of the templates. Also, for the specifications of each template, VIEW TEMPLATE SPECS.

• H10 template cuts a small dovetail joint. Use it for small-scale work like delicate boxes and insert trays. Timber thickness range: 2mm to 10mm. The H10 cutters have 1/4-inch drive shafts.
• H20 template cuts the same sized dovetail joint as the H10 template. H10 cutters have 1/4-inch shafts. The significant difference is a greater distance between pins. H20 is the template adapted for the Butterfly keys packages, as a STANDARD template and a MINI template. The H10 cutters are used with this template. Timber thickness range: 2mm to 10mm.
• A10 dovetail template cuts a medium-sized dovetail joint. It’s our most popular template because it offers you—the box maker—a versatile timber thickness range: 5mm to 13mm. The A10 cutters have 1/4-inch shafts. Use thinner timber for delicate boxes and fine insert trays. Use thicker timbers for large jewellery boxes, drawers, file trays, pantry and table wear.
• B10 dovetail template profile suits large scale projects. Use this template for large drawers, blanket boxes and small furniture items and workshop boxes. Timber range: 14mm to 22mm. The B10 cutters have 1/2-inch shafts
• Each dovetail template needs specifically designed dovetail and straight cutters.
• F15 15mm finger joint template cuts a large straight joint. Use this template for blanket boxes, small furniture projects and boxes in the workshop. Template accessory included. Timber range: 14mm to 22mm. The F15 cutter has a 1/4-inch shaft.
• This template has a specifically designed spiral cutter. It is fitted with a colour-coded collar system to assist the fit of the joint.

Safety and ease of operation…

We recommend you add clamp holders and two Bessey Kliklamps to your SOLO BEGINNER PACK. The clamp holders are designed to house the Bessey clamp at a safe distance above the cutter.
Easy on! Easy off!
