Milescraft - tool for milling circles

Quick Comparison of Specifications

How does a compass work?

Secure one point of the jig to the center of the circle you want to draw, and the router rotates around it. You set the desired diameter by adjusting the distance between the router and the center.

For large circles, you adjust this distance using the sliding center on the aluminum arm.

What You Should Know Before Milling

The cutter rotates around a fixed center point, so you need to account for a small hole in the center of the circle. 

For deeper or through-hole cutouts, it is best to mill the material gradually in several passes. The manufacturer recommends individual passes of approximately 6–8 mm.

For circles with a diameter of approximately 1050–1320 mm, you need to rotate the guide. Within this range, the integrated scale can no longer be used, and the distance of the cutter from the center must be set by manual measurement.
