Worktop jigs and accessories are available from Howdens Joinery. Jig markings may differ - I've used these letters for clarity. The numbered holes are used in certain parts of the operation to select the correct worktop width (in millimetres). The diagrams opposite show the terms used in identifying the joint to be cut. The following example will feature a 90° Left Hand joint. In my drawings, the jig has a slight transparency, again for clarity. Real jigs are not transparent! I tend to cut the female part of the joint first. This is done with the worktop laminated surface uppermost and the post-formed (rolled) edge facing towards you. It's often a good idea to leave the factory wrapping in place, to stop any accidental marking. I usually just peel enough away so that the cutting area is exposed. Insert a pin into the relevant worktop width hole - in this example, I'm using 600mm wide stock.
