Technical Details

The Mitre Maker requires a table-mounted router. All other equipment comes standard with the jig so you can start cutting perfect mitres straight out of the box.

Overall dimensions

The Mitre Maker baseplate has the following overall dimensions:
• 545mm length;
• 180mm width; and
• 13mm thick

The 45 degree cut face

The Mitre Maker baseplate and recess for the aluminium fence is CNC machined, providing very accurate workpiece positioning relative to the 45 degree cutting face.

Workpiece length

The maximum length of material that can be mitre cut using the Mitre Maker is not determined by the size of the baseplate, as excess length of material can overhang the baseplate.

However if using the stop arrangements for accurate side length measurement, the Mitre Maker can accommodate workpieces up to 400mm long. An extension can be added for an additional 550mm workpiece length. Two extensions can be added for even longer frame piece lengths.

Workpiece width

The maximum width of material that the Mitre Maker baseplate can accommodate is 80mm for mitre cuts.

Workpiece thickness

The maximum thickness of material that the Mitre Maker can accommodate is determined by the cutter height and is typically 38mm with the standard cutter, or 50mm with the tall cutter which is available as an optional extra. There is no minimum thickness material that the straight cutters can mitre.

The minimum thickness material that the tongue and groove cutter can accommodate is 11mm, the maximum is 22mm.

Cutters

The Mitre Maker typically uses 1/2 inch shank cutters fitted with bearings which glide along the Mitre Maker cutting face. We supply only the highest quality cutters. All cutters are manufactured in Australia by Carb-I-Tool.
