About the templates:

• 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 shafts.
• H20 template cuts the same sized dovetail joint as the H10 template. 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 cutters. Use thinner timber for delicate boxes and fine insert trays. Use thicker timbers for large jewellery boxes, drawers, file trays, pantry and table wear. Think of the possibilities in the home and the workshop!
• B10 dovetail template profile suits large scale projects. Use this template for large drawers, blanket boxes and small furniture items. Timber range: 14mm to 22mm. The B10 cutters have 1/2-inch shafts.

NOTE: Each dovetail template uses 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. Timber range: 14mm to 22mm. The F15 cutter has 1/4-inch shaft. The template upgrade contains s set of adjusting sleeves for the spiral cutter.
