exact center of a board. Follow directions on page 11

a given cutter or blade kerf, only the Rabbit is used to
find center regardless of board width.

The
CLINCHER Template Collection includes 48 joint-making templates,
9 dual scales for making repetitive cuts, infeed and outfeed fence scales and
a blank inch scale for custom use. They are made from a special, high-
strength vinyl and will give many years of satisfactory use. The two printed
sheets comprising the 60 templates and scales are partially die cut and need
to be separated for insertion into the pockets provided for in this handbook.
Although they should separate easily by peeling apart, because of tolerances
in materials and manufacturing processes it may also be necessary to use a
sharp knife or razor blade.
The fit of a template or scale in a
CLINCHER slot may become too loose
over time. If this occurs, make a mild kink in one or more places along its
length to add tension when replaced in slot. You cannot damage a template
or scale in doing this.
If your templates become dirty, simply wipe them with a damp cloth. DO
NOT attempt to clean the templates with alcohol or any other solvent as this
may damage the printing.
