is a must-have for all Leigh dovetail jig owners.
*US patent: USPN 7,507,060 B2 UK patent: GB2446909 Canada Patent No. 2,611,233
Here’s How It Works
The VRS is mounted on brackets on the front of the jig and the router is sup-
ported by the finger assembly and the full width beam of the VRS. The vacuum
chute rides under the router support beam. Control arms, attached to the
vacuum chute, surround the router. These arms are adjustable to accommodate
any router base. As the router moves across the joint, the vacuum chute glides
effortlessly from side to side on nylon rollers. The chute is always in perfect
position to catch the dust and chips thrown out by the router bit. Chips and
sawdust are drawn into the vacuum chute and down through the vacuum hose.
Each VRS comes complete with two adaptors to fit all popular vacuum hose
sizes and the VRS can be used with a small shop vac or a large built in system.
The VRS is easily attached without jig modification. Each VRS comes complete
with all mounting hardware needed for any Leigh 24" D-Series jig, all Super
Jigs or the earlier model Leigh D1600.

The dust chute rides beneath the
router support beam. Control arms
ensure accurate positioning of the
chute and the size and shape of the
chute ensures total waste collection
regardless of bit size or joint type
being routed.
The VRS will work with almost any
shop vac or large vac system. Two
adaptors are included with every
VRS to handle hose sizes from 1"
to 2-1/2".
The VRS is a full width router support.
When the work piece has been routed
on one side of the jig, the router can be
effortlessly moved to the other side of
the jig and parked while the work piece
is being changed. There is no need to
remove the router from the jig.
Because the vacuum box is always
in perfect position relative to the
router bit, the dust and chips com-
ing off of the router bit are auto-
matically drawn into the chute and
vacuum hose.
