Rockler Bow Tie Inlay System

In this Rockler demo video you'll see how the Rockler Bow Tie Inlay System makes cutting both key and mortise fast and foolproof. The Starter Kit includes a unique, two-piece bushing. Install the sleeve to rout the mortise, then remove it to rout the bow tie key. Since the same template is used for both, you're guaranteed a perfect fit.


VIDEO: Learn how the new Rockler Bow Tie Inlay System makes it easy to cut both wood bow ties and the mortises for bow ties.
