Woodsmith Versatile Molding Jig Plan
Creating molding profiles is a bread-and-butter task for the router. But bearing-guided bits limit you to profiles along the edges of a workpiece. The unique jig shown here breaks through that limitation. With it, you can quickly and easily rout custom profiles across the entire width of both straight and curved frame pieces. At first glance, the jig may seem complex, but in reality it combines the functions of two common, handheld router accessories: an edge guide and a trammel jig. To top it off, in spite of all it can do, you can build it in a few hours with a surprisingly small amount of material and common hardware items.
We offer the Woodsmith Versatile Molding Jig plan as a downloadable PDF or a printed format that we ship to you.
Easy to build and use, this jig lets you create custom curved moldings.
Step-by-step instructions, exploded views, materials list, and more—these plans have everything you need to build your own Versatile Molding Jig.
