Great miter joints (5/5), Dec 31, 2016

By James E. Miller (Nevada IA US)

I have a different brand of this bit and wasnt happy with it so I bought this locking miter bit and couldnt be more happy with it. Nice tight joint. I wouldnt give it up I like a locking miter a lot more than just a straight miter. Has more gluing area, and no slipping.

Great miter joints (5/5), Mar 30, 2016

By James E. Miller (Nevada IA US)

I used the setup block 9754 . I have smaller locking miter bit. But this one works great on even half inch material. It just takes a little fine tuning to make great joints. I also use 5/8 material and adjusted the fence a little and raised the router and a perfect joint. Remember when adjusting the fence and lowering or raising the router,it will change the measurement double as you route one board flat on the table and the other flat against the fence. It isn't that hard to setup as some make it out to be.

LOCK MITER BIT (5/5), Apr 10, 2013

By WARREN GREENWALD (WEST CHESTER PA US)

NEVER SAW OR USED A LOCK MITER BIT, BUT IT WAS EASY ONCE THE CONCEPT WAS UNDERSTOOD. WITH SCRAP WOOD OF SAME THICKNESS, ADJUST BIT HEIGHT UNTIL THE TWO BOARDS MATCH PERFECTLY LIKE FLOORING. THEN ADJUST FENCE TO EXPOSE MORE OF THE BIT UNTIL THE BIT JUST KISSES THE TOP OF THE BOARD AS IT IS CUT. AFTER THAT SET UP BLOCKS BEHIND THE FENCE SO YOU CAN ALWAYS RETURN TO THE PERFECT SETTING. PROCUCES GREAT !!! RESULTS.

Great (5/5), Oct 15, 2008

By Eric Klein (Holly Springs NC US)

With the setup block it was not difficult to set up. The resulting miters are very tight. I used on plywood and there was some splintering, but no more than expected. Just took more passes to reduce the splintering.

By Bob Carey (Levant ME US)

setup was a little tricky. The resulting joint is very strong. The pdf file is indispensable to the usage of this bit. Excellent product.
