Making a simple DIY router jig for the lathe

 

























Tools and materials I propose:

Trim router

Hole saw

Table saw

Air compressor, nail and staple gun kit

Random orbit sander

Cordless drill

Cordless Impact Driver

Bandsaw

Forstner bit set

Lathe

Wood turning tools set

Chuck kit


In this video I make a router jig for woodturning projects. This jig helps you use the trim router while your project is still mounted on the lathe. It works really nicely if you also use a divider in woodturning. 


I begun by cutting some scrap wood to size on the table saw. 


I then used a hole saw to open up the holes for my trim router. 


I sanded the holes to achieve a snug fit. 


Next I glued and nailed all the pieces together. 


I then made the jig’s rest for my lathe. I turned a dowel and glued it on a flat base. 


It is important for the jig to can be aligned with the lathe’s centre. 


After that it was ready to test it. 


It worked really nicely. Especially along with a divider. 


But that was it. See you soon with  a new project video.
