Juice Groove Router Jig Compatible with DeWalt DW618, Black

• GUIDE YOUR CUT — Following a juice groove path entirely freehand puts every change of direction in your hands. This jig guides your router as it cuts a channel in a wooden workpiece, giving you guidance along the groove path when you bring a cutting board to your workshop bench, while leaving you in control of the movement and pressure throughout the pass.
• FIT YOUR ROUTER — Put your router to work on cutting-board projects with a juice groove jig made to fit onto it, turning your existing tool toward a specific woodworking task. This plastic part gives you a guide to use while routing the channel at your bench; you get the plastic part only, and any mounting hardware your setup calls for is not included.
• COLLECT THE RUNOFF — Add a channel that collects liquids that would otherwise run off your cutting board and onto the counter during meal preparation. The jig guides your router while you cut that juice groove, turning a woodworking step into a useful feature for the board you reach for when preparing a meal, whether you are making a board or adding a groove to one you already use.
• STEADY HANDS MATTER — Keep a steady hand as you move your router through the cut, maintaining manual control while the jig guides the groove. At your workshop bench, the guide and your handling work together: follow the channel path with deliberate movement, keeping your attention on the cut from the start of the pass to the point where you finish routing your cutting board.
• DIRECT THE PASS — Apply inward pressure as you guide your router to keep the bit from wandering in the wrong direction. As you work along the juice groove, keep that pressure directed inward rather than relying on the jig alone, making your handling part of the guided cut as you follow the intended channel path around the cutting board on your bench. WHAT\'S IN THE BOX — Only the item named in the title. No hardware is included (see the description).

A juice groove that wanders is not the finishing detail you wanted for your cutting board. Routing the entire channel freehand leaves you responsible for following the path without a guide.

The SplashNColor juice groove router jig gives you guidance for that cut. It is a plastic part that fits onto your router and guides it while you cut a channel in a wooden workpiece. Use it when adding a juice groove to a cutting board, with your hands controlling the router\'s movement as the jig guides the path. This is an accessory for your existing router, not a complete routing tool.

That channel has a job beyond the workshop. A juice groove collects liquids that would otherwise run off the board, giving the board a useful feature for meal preparation. Whether you are working on a board for your own kitchen or adding a groove to a board you already use, the jig connects the routing task at your bench with the way that board works on your counter.

Use a steady hand during the cut and apply pressure inward to keep the bit from wandering in the wrong direction. The jig guides your router; your handling remains part of the process. Keep your attention on the intended groove path and maintain that inward pressure as you move through the pass rather than expecting the guide to take over control.

For woodworkers, carpenters, makers, and woodworking enthusiasts, this is a workshop accessory with a clear purpose: guiding a router while cutting a juice groove. Bring it to the bench when your cutting-board project reaches the channel-cutting stage and you want guidance instead of relying entirely on freehand routing.

HARDWARE NOT INCLUDED: Only the item named in the title is in the box. Every setup is different: depending on yours, mounting it or attaching it to an existing part may use hardware you already have, such as the original screws, or you may need to buy your own screws, bolts, tape or adhesive to suit your situation. No hardware of any kind is included with this listing.
