What happens here

This video showcases the construction and use of an adjustable routing jig designed to create precise V-grooves in composite deck boards. These V-grooves enable the boards to be 'folded' or bent into seamless 90-degree corners after being heated with a heat gun. While the video primarily demonstrates the application of the jig for creating specific profiles in workpieces, it highlights an aspect of 'Routing Template Crafting' by presenting a custom-made, reusable template. It does not explicitly demonstrate 'Template Profile Refinement with Abrasive Tools'; however, achieving the precision shown in the routed grooves often relies on meticulous crafting and potential abrasive refinement of the template's guiding edges during its fabrication to perfectly match the router bit's profile.
