Introducing the newest addition to the
Leigh line of quality joinery tools, the
Leigh R9PLUS Joinery System

The new R9 PLUS Joinery System uses a precision CNC machined template along with new template positioning technology (patent pending) for fast and accurate routing of Through Dovetails and Box Joints. The PLUS? The R9 Plus makes 3 sizes of Box Joints and 3 sizes of Through Dovetails, all on boards of any width. Perfect joint fit is guaranteed, and repeatable, with the patent pending Leigh e10 guide bush.

All this and it works mounted on your bench with a hand held router or with your router table. The Leigh R9 plus was designed to keep your initial investment low. We provide the template, clamps, sidestop and mounting hardware and you save by making a simple shop made beam to mount it on.
