INSTRUCTIONS FOR
CORNER JOINTS
NOTE: When using this jig to make
corner joints, the width of either
surface to be drilled cannot exceed
4 inches.
1. Place boards you want to join in
the final position and mark them
“A” and “B”. Use a square to
ensure proper alignment
(See Figure 14).
2. Flip board “A” flat so it lies on
board “B”. Use a square to ensure
the edges are still aligned
(See Figure 15). Clamp the boards
together.
3. Use the square to mark the edge
of board “A” and the surface of
board “B” to be drilled at all
desired dowel pin locations
(See Figure 16).
4. Remove the clamp and place
board “A” in the jig as detailed in
“HOW TO MAKE EDGE-TO-EDGE
JOINTS”, steps 5-7.
5. Drill holes in board “A” at all desired locations.
Follow steps 8-15 in “HOW TO MAKE EDGE-TO-EDGE
JOINTS.”
6. Remove board “A” from the jig once all holes are drilled.
7. Open the CLAMP SCREW (B) on the jig wide enough to fit over
the board “B” with surface to be drilled facing up.
8. Place the FIXED JAW (C) of the jig
against the side of board “B” that
is closest to the marked lines from
step 3. Align the center of the
INDEX MARK (D) with one of the
lines marked, from step 3, on the
board. (See Figure 17)
