Sizzlin’ Summer special from Leigh!

July 2, 2010 By Al Navas

I don’t own any Isoloc templates, but this offer will likely make me buy one. Leigh is offering free router bits for use with the templates:

Make sure to visit the Isoloc web page to read the details. In case you are not familiar with the look of this joint, I invite you to look at the Isoloc Photo Gallery page, and click on each of the four links to go to each of the photo pages. In the meantime, maybe I can entice you look, with the following:

From the Leigh "fancy" Isoloc web page.

Episode 19. Yet more cool stuff for Leigh jigs – Isoloc templates

June 3, 2008 By Al Navas




Available in six joint patterns, Isoloc joints and templates are unique to Leigh. The styles are: The Wave, The Ellipse, the Key, The Mirror Key, Clover, and Bears Ears. Their large glue surface area and the mechanical interlock of dovetails combine to make a unique joint, available nowhere else.The three easy steps to make these unique joints are:

  1. Install variable guide bush and router bit
  2. Route the pins
  3. Route the tails

The Isoloc templates are not available for the Super 12 jig. However, they are for all the other Leigh dovetail jigs! Using the templates and two different router bit sizes, even inlaid Isoloc joints are possible – how cool is that?
