Default Door Hinges Jig

Snap

I made my self one works great on new doors and frames but no good for
frames with door stop and architrave fitted I think you might need two jigs
let us know how you get on

om...
I made myself a routing jig for hinging doors today out of a piece of
architrave. It works OK for the doors themselves but of course I can't
get the full cut out of the door frames with it because of the rebate.

The only thing I can think of it to build another jig to do the frames
but this means carrying two jigs, resetting the router and the
possibility of mismatching cuts.

Any suggestions?

Buying the Trend jig is not on because of the need to have the hinges
set at the distances specified by the owner, which will vary from job
to job. Besides, the latest ones are (or were last time I looked) £70
for a four hole jig and £40 for a three.
