*Kits include one 1/2" bit. Based on inventory at the time of your order we may include various size/angle bits.
What is tilt orientation? In the middle drop-down menu below under "Spline-Making Jig Options" you will see a choice of Left or Right tilt. This refers to the direction your table saw blade tilts, when you adjust the bevel angle standing in the operator position. If the top of the blade starts pointing toward the left as you turn the handwheel, it is a left tilt saw, and vice-versa for a right tilt saw. This information is critical so that we may include the proper spline-making jig with your kit; it has nothing to do with the actual dovetail spline jig itself which is used in conjunction with your router.
Bearings or Guide Bushings? In the lower drop-down menu, you'll have the option to receive bits with or without bearings. By far the best way to go is with guide bushings (without bearings). If you don't currently have any get them. This will give you maximum versatility and allow for depth adjustments not possible with bearings. We have not used bearings ourselves for many years; the only reason we include the option is for those of you who may have routers that cannot accept guide bushings since we want you to be able to use the kit right out of the box. The bearings will work fine for you but guide bushings are much much better if you already have them, or have a router that can accept them. Most routers can. If you choose to order bits only, we will include an extra bag of premium precut splines in lieu of the bearings.
Minimum/Maximum Guide Bushing I.D. & O.D (bits with 1/4" shanks):

Min I.D. = 5/16"
Max O.D. = 5/8"
