     Politefab thanks for the photos !

    I really like the radius in the corner, as a company that specializes in repair, we have seen many cracks start at that corner. The radius in the corner should help to eliminate cracking at that point. It looks like you have a great system there !

    its been well thought out having a background in solid surface has help in a lot of my methods. if you want one let me know

    i cut it close and than back bevel the bottom side if the seam and go over it with a 100 grit z bit to remove all the chips and give me a near perfect seam

    Are you making the jig out of an HDPE product or some other kind of plastic?

    i mark what i am going to cut. in most cases i just make this cut on the beam saw but it can be cut by hand. i cut it about 1/8″ away from my marked lines

    once it is cut close i clamp my template back on and get out my galesky. i first back bevel the seam and use a 100 grit z bit to finish the seam off. some times if i did not cut it quite close enough to the template i use a 30 grit z wheel first

    Do you still sell this template for the inside corner seams.  If so is there any special tools that should be used to get maxium results.
