Nice Joint (5/5), Oct 24, 2012
By John McCormick

I too used this bit to make table legs because I did not want to show a glue joint down the piece. I was very happy with the outcome. The setup block was nice but not 100% necessary.
Also, if you are milling your own wood to thickness, I recommend that you leave a sixteenth or so on the thickness before routing the lock miter. This way, you are not producing a sharp edge to ride on the out feed fence. Mill to final thickness after the miter has been routed.
Best of all, the joint produces a near perfect 90 degree joint with little effort. Just make sure to clamp it tight.

If you want to build a table leg made from 4 pieces of wood this is the answer. Used it to make legs for a Craftsman design dining room table. Many of my woodworking pals thought the legs were solid, but I explained how this bit works and a couple added this bit to their collections. Also, this is a great bit for making drawer boxes. The front, sides and back interlock and make a joint of unprecedented strength. Also, the set-up block is a near necessity for accurate joints. There are alternative set-ups but the block is easiest.

I have used this product and found it to be very useful, and would recommend it to anyone wanting a secure joint in their woodworking. The video is most helpful.
