Woodpeckers Radius Quick Jig
IMPORTANT : The Radius Quick·Jig is designed specifically for use with table mounted routers. DO NOT USE WITH HAND HELD ROUTERS. The Radius Quick· Jig is shown above in use with the Woodpeckers Freehand Guard (sold separately).
INSTRUCTION STEPS
- Proper feed direction is critical to safe operation and a smooth finish. Looking down from the top with the jig held firmly in place, the workpiece should be fed into the router bit from right to left. The router bit should be on a counter-clockwise path.
- The stock should always feed into the router from the long grain edge around to the end grain. This means that you have to rout two diagonally opposed corners from each side of the board. In the illustration, the “A” corners are done as shown, then the board is flipped over to do the “B” corners. FIGURE A.

HOW TO GET THE BEST RESULTS FROM YOUR RADIUS QUICK-JIG
The Radius Quick·Jig is a template for marking corner radii and also serves as
a template for guiding along flush trim style router bits. The router bit must
have a guide bearing on the tip. Common diameters are 1/2″ to 3/4″. The
cutting edge of the bit should extend just barely above the wood but not so
much that the cutters will come in contact with the aluminum Radius Quick·Jig.
The bearing should ride solidly against the edge of the Radius Quick·Jig.
IMPORTANT : The Radius Quick·Jig is designed specifically for use with
table mounted routers. DO NOT USE WITH HAND HELD ROUTERS.
- Pull the Radius Quick·Jig down onto the corner of the wood and hold it firmly in place, slowly feed it into the router bit. FIGURE B.
- Follow around the profile with the material and jig rotating in a counter-clockwise direction. A better finish can be achieved if small amounts are removed in multiple passes versus one heavy pass. FIGURE C.
WARNING! Keep hands, fingers, clothing and everything else well away from the router bit and the outside edges of the jig. DO NOT HOLD THE JIG FROM THE SIDES. The center hole is a good place to pull back from. Pull in the direction shown in FIGURE B.
Pull Radius Quick·Jig/Wood in a counter-clockwise direction.
