To prevent juices from dripping off the edge of your cutting board, a smoothly routed groove around the edge is essential. Our Juice Groove Routing Jig makes the process of routing the grooves easy, accurate and adjustable. The jig adjusts to accommodate cutting boards up to 18'' x 18'' in size, and includes attachments to create corner radii and to rout channels around square, round or triangular through-handle openings. Use the jig with our optional Rounded-Shoulder Juice Groove Router Bits, available in two groove widths: 3/8" and 1/2", big enough for even the juiciest watermelon, but not so big that the grooves are distracting or detract from usable space.
Juice Groove Router Jig Details:
- Adjusts in both directions to simplify the process of routing a uniform juice groove on cutting boards up to 18'' x 18'' in size
- Rides against rails and corner guides to rout a groove centered 1'' in from the edges
- Use with cutting boards from 3/4'' to 1-1/4'' thick; thicker boards require spacers under the jig, while thinner boards require a spacer under the board
- Guide bushing mounts to any plunge router baseplate with a 1-1/4'' diameter center hole
- Clamping brackets mount to the outside of the rails so jig can be clamped to the work surface or attached to a substrate with #8 screws
- Clamping brackets attach in two orientations—one for cutting boards from 3/4'' to 1'' thick and another for boards from 1'' to 1-1/4'' thick
- Corner radius guides produce a curve at the corners with a 1/2'' radius on the inside edge
- Includes three additional corner guides for offsetting a juice groove around handle openings made with a 1-1/4'' diameter Forstner bit or the triangular or square section of the Rockler 4-in-1 Cutting Board Handle Routing Template (#68393, sold separately)
- Works with our Rockler Rounded-Shoulder Juice Groove Bits (sold separately), which work similarly to core box bits, but also apply a nicely rounded edge to the groove
Important Notes:
- Use only with a plunge router.
- If you plan to use the Rockler Cutting Board Juice Groove Routing Jig with Bosch 1613AEVS, 1617-, 1618-, 1619- or MR23-Series routers, or with the plunge bases on Bosch palm routers, you will need to purchase the Bosch RA1129 Quick-Change Template Guide Adapter Kit (#54217, sold separately) to be able to install the jig's Guide Bushing and Locknut.
- Router bits sold separately.
