Scarfing Jig - In use
Just set your router depth to contact the board and drive around.  Any wood projecting into the bit's path is removed.  I used a little candle wax to help things along.  To fully scarf the 1" board,  I adjusted the router 3 times and the jig once.  Less than 10 minutes total time to complete a joint.  Once you rip the board to desired width, epoxy glue the joint together.  I'll use this for shear clamp, spray rail, and coaming.
