Setup is fairly simple, but important to get right. Two sides of the box will be set to leave an open notch at the top. In this case in 1/4" stock. A backer board is used to avoid tearout on the back of your piece, and the same cut should be made on both ends of these boards. Note that clamping in place is strongly recommended to keep the cuts accurate.
The cut on the mating two sides is set up to leave a full tongue on top, so the two pieces will mate exactly. Again, this same cut will happen on both ends of these pieces. Sometimes that piece is very small, making the clamping all the more important.
As mentiones, the bit is shipped with three bearings to all cuts at depths of 1/2" (left), 3/8" (middle), and 1/4" (right) deep with absolute confidence. Bearing changes can easily be made from the top while the bit is still in the router table.
Need to make a taller box? With a proper bit set-up you can make a 3-1/8" tall box in two passes. For gifts, for collections for hobbies or your own home business, box joints are quick, strong and beautiful. A box joint router bit belongs in every shop.
