Overview

This unique bit is similar to a locking rabbet bit, but it cuts two tongues instead of one for added mechanical strength and additional gluing surface. The wedged profile of the tongues helps everything snug up under clamping pressure, while still exposing valuable long grain gluing surface. To machine your parts, run the drawer fronts flat on the router table and the sides vertically against your fence. Sturdy 1/2" shank.

Needed it for a future project and the price was right.

I'm trying to make a movable rail assembly for a painting easel. With some finishing wax, I think this will work nicely.

Lock drawer sides together, without doing dovetail or box joints.

Saw it described in a recent woodworking magazine. One criticism, it would be very useful to include some description of the use of this router bit -- even a very brief one would be useful for first time users of this type of router bit.

I studied this and the regular lock bit trying to figure out what "high drawer" meant. Never did, but I think this bit is better for 3/4" stock as opposed to 1/2" stock. But I won't know until I use it. I'm wondering if I can use this bit and also use the raised panel bit on a drawer front. Probably not, but I will try it out.

This appears to be designed for 3/4 inch stock. Will this work on 1/2 inch thick drawer sides?
Allen S on Sep 17, 2015
BEST ANSWER: I was not able to set it up to cut 1/2" stock. I tried it many ways without any luck. There is a video on the Woodsmith shop website that shows them setting up bit #22637 to make drawers, the only problem is I cannot tell if the drawer front is 3/4" or 1/2".

Easy to use
I made drawer boxes in the past and used blind dovetail joints. This drawer lock bit worked great, removed less material and was much faster than doing dovetail joints. I'll use this often.
