Application Example - Edged/Raw edge

Application Example - CONVEX CURVED CORNER

Edged (front)

Fit pegs to the appropriate

holes following the guide.

Edged/Raw application for

a corner post shown

Decide on the worktop/breakfast bar

edges to be routered.

See edging examples section

at the bottom of this page.

Router the curve, pulling the

router towards the back edge of the jig

to give a rough cut.

Clamp jig into position

Hints & Tips:

We recommend a ‘4 pass’ cut

Edged/Raw

(front edge join)

Raw/Raw*

(Continuous edging)

Router a smooth finish inner curve

pushing the router to the front edge

of the jig.

(Illustrated by thick

black line)

*Working with a raw front edge can only be achieved

by using the back of the worktop as the front edge.

Before using this, the backing paper will need to be

removed to enable the edging strip to fix correctly.

This can be done by using a circular saw.

Remove the jig, and apply adhesive to the raw edge of the worktop.

Align the edging strip and push firmly into place.

Notes: We recommend masking tape is used along the top edge of the worktop

to protect from excess glue and trimming.

If you used the edged/raw edge cut application (as shown below)

ensure the edging strip is flush with the adjoining edging at the front*.

Hints & Tips: Once edging adhesive has been applied, warm the edge before applying

the edge banding. Edging clamps can be used to ensure a secure fix.

*Where the edging has been cut at the front of the worktop, there will be a slight curve.

To achieve a flush finish for the adjoining edging, file away a small section on the back

edge (see illustration above).

Mark lines on the top at the dimensions show using a pencil.

Fit pegs to the appropriate jig holes (see right) then position jig aligning the

corresponding lines on the jig with the pencil marks on the top.

Note: On darker colour tops use masking tape

to highlight pencil markings

30mm Bush

12.7mm Cutter

Using a jigsaw, rough cut away the section

shown, making sure enough of the worktop

edge is left to be able to router a final finish.

Finally, finish the top with edge banding if required following the edging information on page 2.

Measure exactly 616mm then set a standard worktop jig to create the

finished edge of the top.

614.5mm if applying edge banding

616mm if routering a solid timber top

Note: Clamp a batten to the worktop as a guide for the jig whilst

routering.
