  • How about Box joints? – Make strong, tight-fitting box joints on your router table with Rockler’s Router Table Box Joint Jig. This jig uses precision-machined solid brass indexing keys to ensure uniform finger spacing and an airtight fit. They also sell an XL version for larger projects.
  • What about Dado joints you ask? – Cut perfectly fitted dados for a wide range of plywood thicknesses—no undersized bits required with Rockler’s Perfect Fit Dado Jig.
  • And how about the Miter fold Blade? – Fold a single sheet of plywood into a neat, seamless box with just four cuts—non-stick coating protects against pitch buildup and corrosion.

If I wanted to use a cope and stick router bit set to make cabinet doors do you think a good way to prevent the problem we were discussing would be to back it up with a domino?
