Product Questions
All of our jigs strait from the box will produce a 6mm radius, a 0.25 inch radius would be 6.35mm.
This is just a recommendation because of the heavier weight of the router which makes if difficult to recess the top hinge on the door lining or frame.
If you fit a GB240 guide-bush, which has a 24mm diameter and longer spigor) and use a 20mm diameter cutter e.g. Ref: TR20DX1/4TC then it will work because the offset between the cutter and the guide-bush still remains 2mm each side.
Length min = 2 5/8" - max. 5" , Width min = 3/8" - max. 1 3/8"
The corners need to be squared with a chisel because the router cutter leaves a radius. We offer a corner chisel ref. C/CHISEL which has a High Speed Blade for this purpose. The chisel is placed in the recess and hit with a hammer, this creates a square corner.
Some heavy duty routers like the T12/T14 can be a little heavy to handle, therefore the T4, T5 or the T18S/R14 are best suited.
