Original INCRA Jig
Back by popular demand!
The INCRA Jig that started it all more than thirty years ago has been reissued, and the same qualities that made it such a knockout then are still relevant in workshops today. The only two moving parts are the locking knob and the single-piece upper carriage. It's as simple and reliable as your favorite hammer, yet it indexes on 1/32" increments with the same +/-0.002" positioning accuracy and repeatability of our top-of-the-line LS Positioners.
The rigid, glass-reinforced resin body consists of upper and lower halves and provides a solid 7-7/8" of fence travel. Our patented incremental racks are installed where the halves of the jig meet, with each rack offering hundreds of teeth on a precise 1/32" spacing. When the clamping knob is tightened, the teeth mesh, causing the fence and carriage to instantly "center up" on perfect multiples of 1/32" with a precision five to ten times that of working by eye with a conventional ruler.
By adding a fence and a couple of simple fixtures (either shop-made or purchased as part of the INCRA Jig Fence System), 3/8" box joint and 1/2" dovetails can be produced equally spaced or variably spaced. The 1/2" dovetail template can also be made half-blind, through, sliding, or cornerpost. For even more variety, the 11 box joint templates and 29 dovetail templates from the INCRA Master Reference Guide can be adapted to the Original INCRA Jig to produce literally billions of joinery variations.

Precision Band Saw Fence

And keep in mind that INCRA Jigs aren't just for box joints and dovetails. The incremental nature of the Jig makes repetitive cutting operations such as grooving and fluting lightning fast and dead-on accurate. Adding a fence with a larger router bit opening makes it simple to remove material in controlled steps when doing everyday edge forming operations.
Though it was made famous by router work, the Original INCRA Jig's compact size makes it perfect for use at a variety of different machines, really anywhere you have a need for a sturdy, accurate, and repeatable fence positioner. Positioning the fence on a drill press table or re-sawing lumber at the band saw are only two of the possibilities.
Though the value of the reissued Original INCRA Jig hasn't changed, the rest of the package has benefitted from our 20+ years of experience manufacturing incremental positioners. The printed instructions are clear, concise, and fully illustrated. The online instructions covers basic setups, user-made fixtures and accessories, and several typical router table applications.

Those templates can produce a mind-boggling variety of joints - 11 box joint patterns and 29 dovetail patterns are included (or 9 metric box joints and 16 metric dovetails), and each one of the dovetail patterns can be cut half blind, through, sliding, or corner post.
The number of variations on the standard patterns runs into the billions if you have enough time to experiment.
