Abstract
Disclosed is a plate joiner having a superior miter guide for mitered carcase joints. The plate joiner comprises a system for forming a plunge cut. The joiner also includes a miter guide for securely engaging the mitered portion of carcase workpieces and for accurately and reliably locating plunge cuts perpendicularly into opposing mitered carcase joint surfaces so that, when a joint is glued together with a plate in opposing plunge cuts, a closed joint having mitered outside workpiece surfaces is formed, independent of workpiece thickness.
