Abstract: The specification discloses a jig for a motorized miter box enabling the easy and accurate cutting of compound miters. A pair of the jigs is slidably mounted on opposite lateral edges of the table to be movable toward and away from the fence. The jig includes a registration block which is movable between a position on the table and a position clear of the table. When on the table, the registration blocks support a workpiece in a cocked position against the fence for cutting of the compound miter. When clear of the table, the registration blocks do not interfere with a piece of wood laying on the table or extending therefrom.

Abstract: The specification discloses a template for routing stair stringers. The template includes (1) a body having opposite faces and defining tread and riser routing slots and (2) structure for registering the template body on a stringer to provide a fixed tread depth and an adjustable riser height. Preferably, at least a portion of the registration structure is transversely shiftable within the template body to provide an unobstructed routing face regardless of which template face is laid against the stringer.
