TOOLS / ROUTER JIGS AND TEMPLATES

THE DS-1 DOOR STAND IS EASY TO USE. YOU JUST PLACE THE DOOR IN THE STAND AND THE WEIGHT OF THE DOOR MAKES THE MOVABLE JAW HOLD THE DOOR IN PLACE. YOU FLIP UP THE HANDLE AND TURN THE WING NUT AND THEN YOU TIGHTEN TO HOLD THE DOOR FIRMLY IN PLACE. NOW YOU ARE READY TO PREP AND INSTALL THE HINGES AND YOU FLIP THE DOOR OVER AND YOU CAN PREP AND INSTALL THE LOCKSET. THE UNIT IS MADE FROM 3/4" PLYWOOD WITH A REAL BIRCH SKIN. YOU HAVE 2 UPRIGHTS MOUNTED IN A PLYWOOD BASE RECESSED 3/8" OF AN INCH INSIDE THE BASE FOR GREATER REGIDITY. THE JAW IS ALSO MADE OF 3/4" PLYWOOD WITH NYLON BUSHINGS. THE 3/4" BLACK T MOULDING PROTECTS THE DOORS FROM DAMAGE. YOU CAN PLACE PREFINISHED DOORS IN THE DS-1 AND YOU WONT MAR THE SURFACE. WE ALSO USED 3/4" BLACK T MOULDING AROUND ALL EDGES OF THE DOOR STAND TO PROTECT IT FROM DAMAGE. UNLIKE OTHER STANDS WE LEFT PLENTY OF ROOM FOR YOU TO LIFT THE DOOR UP. IT HANDLES ALL 1 3/4" AND 1 3/8" DOORS. VERY ECONOMICAL AS IT WOOD COST YOU THE SAME IN TIME AND MATERIALS IF YOU MADE ONE. THIS UNIT IS VERY WELL MADE TO GIVE YOU GOOD USE FOR YEARS TO COME.
