I'm would say i'm keen DIYer, have used routers and this is the first time I'll be fitting new kitchen worktops, I'll need to make about 6 joints.
I have a makita 3620 router, this DOESN'T have 1/2" cutter. It has 6mm or 8mm collets.
I also have the trend combi 650 worktop jig.
Whilst finding guide bushes and sub bases I have now got confused !
I'm now aware I need 1/2" cutter for the worktop jig, is using a 1/4" collet to 1/2" cutter ok?
So are all worktop jigs made to work with 1/2" cutters only?
The trend combi 650 worktop jig makes 2 underside bolt holes.
Do I need to make biscuit joints? I'm not sure if it's the norm to do this all the time? I will have a section of worktop that will be empty undernear and was wondering if I should biscuit joint that one only.
Thanks
