Thank you!

I ordered one since my dado stack cuts crappy looking joints on the tablesaw. I’m sure it will work fine!

It should deliver acceptable results.. Good luck! Would love to hear how it did for you!

Very interesting video, liked the review. Interesting about the slop play in the sled.

For correcting any slop use UHMW tape. It's easily trimmed and self lubricating. Works for almost everything that uses a runner/slide in a channel. I used it to take out the slop in the factory miter gauge that came with my table saw. Just search google for places online to shop for it.

@@KSFWG Agreed.. Depending on the amount of slop, the tape is a good remedy.

I have one also . Used it for the 1st time today and was not happy with the results. As you mentioned my jig also has that slop in the track. Some cuts were 3/8 exactly but others were wider. So when I finished cutting the boards fit ok not great like you mentioned but some would not even interlock I would guess from the difference in the pin cuts. I followed the directions to the letter. All my work pieces were planed and jointed. I also have measuring blocks so I know the space was right between key and bit. And yes, the jig was secured tightly to my router table. I started over 3 times making sure my setup was correct however, the results were the same some pieces fit poorly and some not at all so I was unable to put box together. After watching your video, the one thing I overlooked was cutting my work pieces so the size was incremental to 3/8 of an inch. I would greatly appreciate any advice you can give me as I am newbie wood worker

Maybe.. Definitely more "moving parts" with the PC jig but, if it's working for you, I'm not sure I'd change it. The Rockler jig also might be a little faster.

i got one also and it does do a decent job at cutting box joints,,,i personally think it is over priced ,,but most rockler stuff is,,,my only complaint and you did mention it,,,is for me to adjust the depth on my router lift it has no hole to get to it,,you have to completely remove the jig for that purpose,,,

I just added the hole. Works fine.

Could you drill a hole through the jig in the appropriate place?

I put a layer of blue tape on each side of one runner and one strip on the other runner. Seems to have taken out the slop.

Rockler.com or a Rockler store.

I think the Incra Ibox is more stable. The biggest problem I see is that the key has too much slop and no fine tuning. Spend another hundred and cut all the frustration. The fact that you need to mod a tool thats made to function as bought..

I wasn't happy with the play in the jig either. I just recently used it on a shop project and it came out "OK" but, not up to snuff for fine furniture.

I got one and not liking it.. The slide is smaller for my bosch router table, so it's not sturdy.

Should have bought an Incra box jig for the table saw.

It's on the list to test drive as well. Incra makes good stuff.

Looks very cheaply made... they could have done better.

It's certainly not the best quality but, in fairness, it does have a price point to match.
