“I live maybe an hour away from the nearest Woodcraft store, so I try to make the most of the occasional visit and load up. I wanted a corner radiusing jig, similar to others I'd seen on the internet, where you basically hold the jig with one finger, as you run the corner on the router table. Instead, when I asked an employee about it, he directed me to this product. I purchased it, and when I got home, was absolutely shocked at how clunky and hard to use this thing is. First off, forget using it on small stock. It's way too cumbersome for anything like that. In order to get the pins to register against the sides, you need a fairly wide board. Also, the pins themselves aren't secured in the holes in any way. They just flop around. This means that getting it to line up perfectly with the corner takes some doing and when you get it there, you just hold your breath and hope it doesn't move before you run the bit over it. In short, this is not a product that should even be carried by Woodcraft. There's really no excuse for it.”

“This is almost a great product. The problem is that the pins that are supposed to line the jig up with the piece your cutting place the flat, run-off space behind the edge of the piece which means when coming out of the curve, the router bit cuts into the edge rather than runs flush with the edge. To see what I mean, look closely at the picture that accompanies the product listing. I wish I had paid more attention to that photo.”
