Popular Post Phil B Posted January 4, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 If you own an Incra LS Positioner, you know the power of templates to make really precise box and dovetail joints. Now, you can design your own templates. The genesis of this came about because several of us wanted to make box joints where one finger was a saw kerf wider so that when we cut the top off the box, all the fingers would be the same size. Rob Lowrie, the author of the software, took it one step farther and made it possible to create arbitrary templates. These will work with any Incra positioner and even the old Join Tech IPM. It supports double and double-double joints. It also provides a template for making clamping cauls. Works on Macs and Windows. In the first picture you can see a wide double-double box joint, in the second picture a 1/4" box joint with one finger 1/8" wider and in the third a double box joint. These are just a small sample of the possibilities. And the best part? It's free! http://lowrie.github.io/pyRouterJig/ We will be providing some tutorials in the new future but the SW is pretty easy to use. Try it! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 I love that I can be at work and questions I have in the back of my mind are answered without me even asking. That issue of cutting the box lid off and having the fingers the same size has been bugging me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortan D Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 Interesting, thanks! I have yet to use 95% of the templates that came standard with my LS, but this app may come in handy for a special need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldwood Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 Maybe I am doing something wrong but when I click on the download for PC I get an error message, a 404 I believe. What am I doing wrong? Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
