User Comments about the Milescraft 1212 Sign Pro Router Signmaking Jig

It did a good job on our sign. Gary M. This is because I did not have the chase tight enough and a letter came loose. They supply two letters each with the original kit.You are also limited to letter size. Be sure to use other letters as spacers between your words. I purchased the Sign Pro to help my son make a trail sign for his Eagle Scout project.


I broke one letter on my second try. They will pop out if you are not careful.(The chase is the frame that holds the letters).If you want to do a lot of signs, I recommend that you order an extra letter kit. Turn them around backwards so you won't cut them by mistake and mess up your sign.Over all, I recommend the Sign Pro. It's easier to handle and you are less likly to make an mistake. It took a little practice to get the letters cut right. You can only do 2 1/2" and 1 1/2" letters.You can do bigger letters with the Panagraph MilesCraft sells.


Wilcox, Summersville, WV You can also do graphics with it also.----------------------------------------------------------------------------I also recommend that you make short chases of letters instead of making a long chase of letters.


After being very disappointed with a previous sign jig I was nervious about trying another. This jig is easy to use, clamps well to the product and comes complete with all the necessary accessories to set it up and begin work.



Overall I am happy with the purchase, now they just have to come up with a way to do the pain staking painting/staining. The system works great and is easy to use if you follow the instructions. I have used this set to make 7 different signs in three sizes. I was a little dissapointed that 2 of the connecting bars were bent in the package. 3 stars for the bent bars. I was able to take them to work and press them straight without damaging them.



The jig is easy to set up and use. Highly recommended for value. It took some practice to produce proper-looking letters from templates that had open spaces, such as the "O" and the "A", but it was mastered quickly. The letters and frame are not super heavy duty , but more than adequate.
