- 5 - Woodstock Intl., Inc. W1099 Pin Depth The W1099 is designed to produce half-blind dovetail joints with a router, 7 / 16 " guide bushing, and 14°, 1 / 2 " dovetail router bit. Half-blind dove- tails are very strong and are commonly used in fine drawer construction. The term “half-blind” refers to the fact that the pins and tails[...]

Router travel is stopped when the router base contacts the fence. 3. The upper side stops align the workpiece horizontally under the template. 4. The [...]

- 7 - Woodstock Intl., Inc. W1099 The side stops serve three purposes: 1) they posi- tion each workpiece square to each other, 2) they offset the two workpieces for proper alignment, and 3) they give lateral support to the workpieces during routing. IMPORTANT: All pieces must be cut perfectly square for the jig to work properly. To adjust the side [...]

- 8 - Woodstock Intl., Inc. W1099 4. Insert a drawer side under the front clamp. This piece will be vertical. Adjust the height so the end of the vertical board overlaps the end of the horizontal board. At this point it is not crucial that the pieces be flush. 5. Clamp the side in place. 6. Release the horizontal piece and butt it against the side [...]

- 9 - Woodstock Intl., Inc. W1099 XI. TEMPLATE ADJUSTMENT The template is adjustable from front to back so that the joint will be hidden when the dovetails are complete. Adjustment is made by loosening the two template lock knobs. Do not adjust the screws holding the template. To adjust the template to the proper position: 1. Mount your drawer piec[...]

- 10 - Woodstock Intl., Inc. W1099 The fence controls the depth of the dovetail pins by limiting the distance that the router travels. The router stops when the router base hits the fence. The fence must be adjusted parallel to the edge of the vertical piece just like the template. To adjust the fence: 1. Mount a 7 / 16 " O.D. guide bushing in[...]

- 11 - Woodstock Intl., Inc. W1099 Your router base must accept a guide bushing with a 7 / 16 " outside diameter and an inside diameter large enough to accept a 1 / 4 " shank dovetail bit. Securely mount the guide bushing to your router. Refer to your router’s operating manual for further instructions. Choose a 1 / 2 " 14° Dovetai[...]

- 12 - Woodstock Intl., Inc. W1099 Figure 13 shows dovetails after cutting. Figure 14 shows a finished drawer and 2 sides ready to be joined. Use care when the router bit exits the workpiece to reduce the risk of tear-out. See section XIV.A. for further instructions. 4. Remove both pieces from the jig and join the dovetails. 5. It may be necessary [...]

- 13 - Woodstock Intl., Inc. W1099 B. RABBETED DRAWER FRONTS Drawer fronts that have been rabbeted around the inside edge to create a lip to restrict drawer travel in the closed position require some additional setup. To produce half-blind dovetails on rabbeted draw - er fronts: 1. A spacer must be added to the vertical side stop in the front of th[...]

- 14 - Woodstock Intl., Inc. W1099 XIV. TROUBLESHOOTING C. INCOMPLETE FIT An incomplete fit occurs when the side piece protrudes from the end of the front or back piece. Figure 17. Cause: The distance between the edge of the side piece and fence is set too narrow. Remedy: Adjust the fence toward the back of the jig by the same amount that the tails[...]

- 15 - Woodstock Intl., Inc. W1099 XIV. TROUBLESHOOTING E. FIT TOO TIGHT OR TOO LOOSE If you find the fit to be about right in every other aspect, but it is simply a little too tight or too loose, the depth of the router bit is probably mal - adjusted. 1. If the fit is too tight, decrease the protrusion of the router bit from the base. 2. If the fi[...]
