I think few people will disagree that the lock miter bit requires a very accurate, and often difficult and very frustrating two-part setup- bit height and router table fence position must be set precisely. I found instructions available from various manufacturers and vendors were often incomplete, limiting, hard to execute, and sometimes downright wrong. Profile matching set-up blocks only work when the stock is the same thickness as the block- not all stock, especially ply, is exactly 3/4", the thickness of most blocks! Also, few (none?) of the instructions work if the thickness of the stock on each side of the joint is different.
A few months ago I hinted that a simple new solution was on the way. Well it is time to dig out and dust off your lock miter bits. I'm happy to say the solution has arrived with the release of the Infinity Lock Miter Master earlier today.
The Infinity website has more images, a video, and a link to the manual which shows the full range of lock miter joints made possible with this unique new patent pending set-up jig.
