    I agree with Frank. It looks like an easy way to make great box joints.

    I just watched the demo video on Incra's website. Very impressive! I think even I could have good results with this box joint jig. I look forward to hearing your review and hopefully seeing some photos of finished projects. Enjoy!

    They are obviously templates for boxes, gosh Rod, get with the program!
    Of all the laws Brandolini's may be the most universally true.

    Deep thought for the day:

    Your bandsaw weighs more when you leave the spring compressed instead of relieving the tension.

    Alan I finally got my new I-Box home and watched the set up/user DVD and un packed the jig. The DVD explains the set up very well (really there’s not much to the initial assembly/ 5 minutes) and the user aspects of the system seems very easy as well.

    I think it’s a winner so far with my initial inspections and I must say its design is well thought out. I like how it you can center out the spacing of the joints on your work piece. Also it’s nice how they give you tips at the end of the DVD as well for those special techniques when using the jig.


    Now I just have to get in the shop and give it a try.

    It's obvious once you point it out!

    I promise to pay more attention next time.................Rod

    I hope you enjoy it!

    One caution- be careful with the micro adjuster- it makes the initial kiss calibration very easy, but it is really powerful! It can be used to correct for a less than perfect calibration or to adjust the fit of any joint, but requires only minimal rotation- just a few tic marks.

    I'll be using my IBOX in a few minutes to make the corner joints on a changing topper that will sit on a low chest that is part of a set of baby room furniture I am building for our forthcoming grandchild.
