About this item
- Coping Sled For Router Table: If you’re building cope-and-stick doors and drawer fronts, our new rail coping wood sled will be an indispensable helpmate. The Rockler rail coping jig has taller round handles that allow a firm, comfortable grip from any angle of approach.
- Smooth-Running Sled: With its smooth-sliding phenolic base, and sturdy toggle clamp holding your stock firmly against the router fence, your rails will travel unwaveringly past the cutter for the cleanest, squarest cuts you can imagine.
- Keeps Your Hands Safe: Particularly with drawer fronts, which sometimes use very narrow rails, the rail guide coping sled prevents parts from dipping in too deep and keeps your hands safely out of harm’s way.
- Prevent End grain Blowout: A sacrificial block can be attached to the fence to prevent end grain blowout, while an abrasive strip prevents the workpiece from wandering.

Product Description
Rockler Woodworking Rail Coping Sled: If you’re building cope-and-stick doors and drawer fronts, our new Rail Coping Sled will be an indispensable helpmate. With its smooth-sliding phenolic base, and sturdy toggle clamp holding your stock firmly against the fence, your rails will travel unwaveringly past the cutter for the cleanest, squarest cuts you can imagine. Unlike many jigs that use the miter slot, our sled uses only the fence as a reference, so there is no need to waste time aligning the miter slot parallel with the fence. In addition, the coping sled has been redesigned so that the reference edge is a separate clear and flexible router guide rail elevated 2” above the woodworking table, meaning there is no risk of cutting into the sled. — Features: New, taller round handles allow a firm, comfortable grip from any angle of approach – Smooth-sliding 3/8” thick phenolic base stays rigid and flat when toggle clamp pressure is applied – Toggle clamp features easy, tool-free adjustments and one-handed operation – Clear, elevated guide runs against the fence, offering a large, smooth-running reference edge without having to cut into the sled – Clear guide runs 2” above the woodworking router, so it works with most router table fences on the market (all Rockler and Bench Dog fences) – Sacrificial block is easily replaceable to accommodate different profiles – Maximum workpiece dimension is 5” wide x 1-1/4” thick.

All parts were there, easy to assemble, works great for make rails for panel doors.

Once calibrated it allows for quick routing of rails in a uniform manner. Dropping rails into position iis easily done and the handles allow for excellent control with each pass by the router bit. Had some trouble with a couple of the machine bolts vibrating their nuts and washers off. One might want to consider some compound on the threads after assembly.

This fixture was a good idea, but it would have been better if certain features were fixed. I always had to check the adjustments every time I used it to make sure the stock was perpendicular to the fence.
