    Default Jig for crotch top panels

    Does anyone use a jig for router use or thicknesser use to plane the angles on crotch top panels?

    I have been thinking about a few designs but also see some problems with some design ideas.

    Unless I misunderstand your question a Safe-T-Planer on a drill press will do the job.

    Do you then have the drill press table at an angle? Presumably you would need some fence arrangement as well.

    You can easly clamp a batten on the drill table to use as a fence,
    but it shouldn't be hard to make a jig by fitting guides to a piece of mdf that you clamp to the table

    Hey Bob, I've seen these Safe-T-Planers mentioned before but I've never actually seen one in the flesh. Where do you get them?
