Mouse Hole Jig-It® for Movable Louvered Shutters

A simple Jig-It® precisely dimensioned to rout the ''mouse hole'' into the top rail of your hand-made shutters. The mouse hole is a small open-ended mortise that the shutter control arm swings into when the louvers are closed. Simple to use with a standard 1-3/8'' template guide, just clamp and rout. The sturdy transparent jig makes it easy to line up with your pencil marks.
