I do and I love it!
Once it is set up it is very easy to produce excellent joints.

I bought one last year and got very frustrated. I'm sure it was me, not the jig. I'm a little impatient sometimes. I think I'll dig it out today and give it another try! It is very well made.

Hi,

Yes a few of us here have them. I think rather then add new comments I will refer you to a couple of posts from the past.

I have one and love it. I use it as much on my router table if not more than my shopsmith. Get a good flat btm Dado if get one for the saw. So many dado blades claim a flat bottom but still cut lititle wings.

Paul,

Do you have a miter bar for your router table and one for the SS? I have an Incra router table so the miter slot is standard 3/8 x 3/4. Thinking about getting the I-Box.

The Freud box joint dado set does a good job. Also, If your blade sharpening service has the skills, you can have any dado set re ground to produce absolute flat bottoms.

No, my router table is home made with the slot sized to fit my shopsmith gear.
