WHY BOND

The Joinery You Want.
The Router You Own.

Loose-tenon joints are clean, strong and concealed—but getting there usually means buying a dedicated machine. BOND starts with a tool already found in many workshops and adds the guidance, travel and repeatability the job demands.

Not another motor.
A better way to guide it.

02

THE MOTION SYSTEM

Two Controlled Axes.
One Clean Mortise.

BOND separates the cut into two guided movements. Plunge travel controls how far the bit enters the workpiece; lateral travel turns a round cutter path into a long, tenon-ready mortise.

PLUNGE AXIS

Guided Entry.
Spring Return.

Move into the cut on a fixed path, then let the spring-loaded carriage return.

LATERAL AXIS

Side-to-Side.
Under Control.

Guide the router side to side to set the mortise length.

03

SET THE CUT

Define the Travel.
Repeat the Result.

The movement is not only guided—it can be limited. Set the plunge depth and lateral travel before the cut, then carry the same mortise across matching parts.

DEPTH SETTING

Set the Depth Once.

Limit the plunge so repeated mortises stop at the same cutting depth.

LENGTH STOPS

Set the Slot Length.

Place the travel stops to define the left and right limits of the mortise.

THE PROOF

The Same Joinery Goal.
A Different Way In.

A dedicated loose-tenon joiner and BOND are built around the same outcome: a clean mortise ready for a floating tenon. BOND gets there with the trim router already in your workshop.

MORE THAN PANEL EDGES

A Stable Way to
Mortise From Above.

Top-down mortising can make a tall dedicated joiner feel awkward. BOND lets the platform rest on the workpiece while the trim router stays in a familiar upright position.

The physical prototype evolution of BOND
06

DESIGNED THROUGH ITERATION

Every Prototype
Answered a Question.

How should the carriage move? Where should the tool be supported? What makes the cut easier to control in real work? BOND evolved through repeated physical prototypes—each one testing movement, stability and usability before the final aluminum design.

FROM PROTOTYPE TO PRODUCTIONThe black-and-white units shown are 3D-printed development prototypes. The production BOND is designed as an aluminum tool.

BUILT FOR REAL JOINERY

One Platform. More Ways to Connect.

01FURNITURE

Frames, tables and concealed loose-tenon joints.

02CABINETRY

Casework, shelves and panel assemblies.

03HIDDEN HARDWARE

Clean slots for concealed furniture connectors.

"It is what I'd call the Apple Product of Woodworking! The packaging is meticulously designed. You won’t find anything like this on the market. This product is straightforward for simple tasks but still has the capacity for more complex projects. Exactly what you need when you don’t have a dedicated workshop—it can replace several machines."
