I think it's complete except for one nylon screw.
Comes with unopened metric scales to replace imperial scales.
Prefer local pick-up from Leichhardt, Sydney. Otherwise freight will be determined by your address and added to the sale price.

OK, I am curious. What machine was this purchased to work with? Does it have a model number I can look up? it does not look like the Incra gear that I have, so am keen to know more.

Regards

The item in photo 2 is an older version of the Original Incra Jig

Don't know what the other bits are for though.

Thanks Big Shed. I'll do some research.

I bought it in USA at a woodwork show about 15/20 years ago. My machine at the time was a Shopsmith Mark 5 but I never set up the jig. I can't see any model #. Just says Incra-Jig, Taylor Design Group.

Thanks,

As Big Shed said, and gave me the link, I now understand the item is the original Incra router etc. jig (hence no additional part number) for some joints and presume that the other parts are some of the add-ons that Incra talks about. As Incra still (or again) sell the same model it should be useful to someone.

I am happy with my Gifkins jig so do not need another box joints jig.

Good luck with it.

Just FYI, Shopsmith table miter slots are not the same size as other saws...at least here in the US. Funny, I opened the thread wondering what the chances were of it being for the Mk V...the heart of my shop. What were the odds?

This is designed to work on a router table. Appears to include the jig with both 1/32" and 1mm positioning racks, fence, adjustable stop and right angle jig. You could use the master reference guide (either imperial or metric, see http://www.amazon.com/INCRA-MLT2-Mas...eference+guide) to make any of the Incra joints.

Ideal for making small boxes with box, dovetail, double dovetail etc. joints amongst other things.

Not the latest and greatest but if you're only starting out its got to be worth $50!!!
