How it works

Lock Miter bits are designed to create corner joints at a 90° angle where the apex of the joint is barely visible. This joint makes it easier to assemble boxes and larger carcass workpieces together and significantly increases joint strength by increasing the gluing surface area.

One work piece is run vertically and the other horizontally against the fence.

To set up, get scrap timber that is the same thickness as your intended work piece and set the centre line of the bit with the centre line of the workpieces. Run both workpieces and fit together.

If you are regularly using that thickness of timber then save the scrap to make it quicker and easier to set up next time. These bits must be used in a router table with fence.
