Only if you need a worktop jig to begin with.

Hi there, my first post.
I notice that toolstation are knocking mdf jigs out cheap - £18.50 -
so it's probably one of those.

Depends whether you'll need all the functionality (peninsula, 135o
etc) of a more expensive bit of kit...
I just bought the other one on that page at ~£28 and it looks like
it'll do the business.
Borrowed a Makita 3612 from a mate and spent £8 + £2.50 p&p at
tooled-up.com for a 30mm bush - cheapest I could find it. I've spent
months amassing all the bits and pieces, and now am in a position to
procrastinate and wait for the nagging to start.
