Due to over confidence and not a little stupidity I have made a maess of
cutting the joint in my worktop. If that were not enough I lifted the router
before it stopped and made a right mess of the jig.
My question is this are all jigs standard? ref, the curve radius? I have
ordered a new top but cannot remember where I bought the jig so can't order
the exact same model. Tried to repair the jig with filler but it's not
really been sucessful.

Thanks

Buy a quality jig (e.g. Trend) and flog it on Ebay afterwards. Cheaper
than hiring.

Good advice but too late I'm afaraid. I have one joint completed and the
female half cut for the second. If the jigs are not standard I'm in
trouble -£450 worth of trouble.

Sorry to hear of your dilemma.
By judicious use of maths, geometry and some ingenuity could you not make
something to finish the job?
