Testimonials

“ I switched on the router, plunged in the cutter, and moved it in the direction of the oval perimeter of the ellipse. Smoothness personified — the action was a joy to experience. This jig is undoubtedly the most competent way of cutting ellipses and ovals with the certainty and control that it gives you. Not only is it a piece of brilliant engineering, it is presented in such a way as to dispel any misunderstanding of the geometric principles involved. This is essentially true of all the functions of the Micro Fence System. ”

The upgrade package includes two pairs of stainless guide shafts (2′ and 3′), a pair of longer T-slot slides, and your choice of four 22.25″ T-slot tracks, four 34.25″ T-slot tracks, or both.  The upgrade makes it possible to create diameters up to 12 feet in the major axis and differentials (the difference between the major and minor axes) of up to 77 inches. Examine the diagrams below to determine which components you’ll need to cut the dimensions you require.

Description

Large Ellipse Uses:
Conference, dining, or larger table tops, transom window moldings/frames, moldings for arched-top armoires, rocking chair rockers, demilune table tops, mirror frames, etc.

Note: Using two centers to create the ellipse shape means concentric cuts (two precisely parallel cuts) are technically an impossibility. The bigger the differential (the distance between centers), the more two spaced cuts will vary from one another. In most applications, this limitation proves to be a non-issue, but feel free to call us to discuss your particular job requirement so you can determine whether these tools will fulfill your needs.

22.25″ tracks with 24″ guide shafts
34.25″ tracks with 36″ guide shafts
