    The lock mitre joint has so many benefits that it is worth putting in a bit of work to also make it simple.
    What about one of these Alan??

    Maybe an extra outhouse is required adjacent the shed

    ....and here is my first MDF prototype. The new plywood version has greater lateral adjustment and, to help with clamping the workpiece, the vertical fence of the static part of the jig has to be reduced in height.
    One thing however that I will not get with a homemade plywood jig is the weight that die cast or CNC machined phenolic would give and WEIGHT is a great advantage when machining across grain!
    Re Crowie's "extra outhouse", it would certainly have been a benefit when I just got out of bed and down to the shed to take this pic
    Im feeling for you Chris!

    Timbecon are offering a deal on lock mitre bits and the infinity gauge. Are they a worthwhile addition to my burgeoning router bit collection?

    If you are going to make boxes and timber casework then the lock mitre router bit gives beautifully crisp corners and is much easier to assemble than mitres with keys, splines, biscuits or even dominos. If you are going to use a lock mitre router bit then the Infinity set up gauge is indispensable.
    Another big plus is that the lock mitre can make fabulous utility boxes with plywood or even use the edge of GOOD plywood in high end cabinets. I haven't seen the Timbecon deal yet but I did buy my infinity gauges from them.

    I have the Carbitool Mitre lock bit, as shown on page 31 of the enviro catalogue:
    CARB-I-TOOL - Router Bit and Accessories Catalogue - NOVEMBER 2015

    Will the Infinity jig work with that? I presume that it will......

    It works with my CMT router bit so I presume that it is universal

    Nope, on both counts. It's winter. Wait until November and I'll be able to catch a ride to Camden no wuckas.

    However, we do have a decent population of Euro Wasps - frequent enough that I can now tell them by the pitch of their wings, without looking. I've become used to them buzzing around, but when they get too persistent.....pssssht.....and they drop from the sky instantly. What I didn't know until recently is that the smell of chicken on the BBQ brings them out wholesale.

    We'll see how I go tomorrow - just bought a new Weber, picked up 40kgs of charcoal from Mt Druitt, 10kgs of chicken from Wollies, ready for a big session (and then freezing).
