Box joint on Incra LS using 1/2" stock. ????



Can anyone tell me how to get one of the box joint templates for the
incra system to work with 1/2" stock when they only go up to 3/8" for
box joints? or tell me of an incra group, board, blog site, etc.

Thanks in advance for any info

This works great, and as you can see, it's not complicated.

Of course, if I paid the dough for an Incra, I'd make it brew tea, and bake
biscuits to earn its keep.

I just did that. set the height of the bit a "skosh" higher than 1/2"
and make your box joint cuts. I use the 1/4" bit. You DO know about
the "blue" cuts and the "red" cuts, right?

no problemo. After fiddling with dovetails, making box joints is a walk
in the park! :)
