I'm not sure I have put this in the right section, so apologies if I am wrong, but.....
I have a load of doors to knock up, and need to make myself a jig to cut the rail and stile parts. I have the router bits (blue tornado?? Are they OK?) and obviously a table, but in the past I have had problems getting a perfect stile cut (stile? the end grain cut needed to join the parts. The shorter cut) and my attempts at jigs have not been so great. I have some toggle clamps, and plenty of spare mdf/ ply/ wood. Just lacking inspiration really. I have made a few kitchens up for folk, but would like mine to be really something! :lol:
Incidentally I saw some units today and the doors were mdf, cut with a rail and stile set, and they looked really good. Much nicer than the tat I have fitted for one of the sheds (who shall remain nameless for fear of redundancy) I have been working for. Nice trad style doors, raised panel but still quite simple, and painted pale blue. As I said they looked surprisingly good. I was gonna use some elm and oak I have, but am now thinking about it.
Any help greatly appreciated.
