How To Build An Exact Width Dado Jig

When you make your jig make the adjustable router guide wider so you can put the locking knob on top where it will not interfere with your router.

This jig can be made to any size for any bit/guide bushing combination.

Just remember that once you use a particular bit/bushing combo with the jig, you are stuck with it.

Using a different combination will defeat the purpose of the jig. I used a 5/8″ guide bushing and a 1/2″ router bit.

Mark right on the jig which bushing / bit size the jig is made for because if you are like me you will soon forget.
