Birds Mouth

May be used to make multi-sided objects, such as boxes, barrels etc.

The two flute bevel cutter creates a notch or “birdsmouth” on one edge of a piece of timber which mates against the square edge of the next piece of timber, offering a larger gluing surface for maximum strength as well as an interlocking joint to aid assembly. Only one side of the workpiece is machined to form the joint.

The T3282-1/2 cutter will produce 6-sided or 12-sided boxes, depending which way up the timber is machined. The T3294-1/2 will produce 8-sided boxes.

Maximum timber thickness:
6-sided boxes 20mm
8-sided boxes 20mm
12-sided boxes 12mm

Recommended to be used in table-mounted routers.
