The outstanding Leigh FMT jig is appearing more and more in workshops around
the world. After all, it is mortise and tenon joinery that holds most of the
world's fine furniture and cabinetry together. Only the FMT uses a single guide
and bit to cut both mortises and tenons with speed and precision that you have
to see to believe. The FMT is so easy to use and so efficient that it brings
professional quality joinery within the reach of any shop, from basement to
custom studio to factory floor. Unit weight: 14kg.
