Milescraft CornerChisel – Spring-Loaded Corner Chisel for Hinge Mortises

The Milescraft CornerChisel is a specialized woodworking tool designed to quickly and accurately square the corners of routed hinge mortises.

Designed for Accurate Hinge Installation

Routing a hinge mortise creates clean, consistent recesses, but the corners are typically left rounded by the router bit. The Milescraft CornerChisel makes the finishing step fast and simple by cutting the rounded corners into precise 90-degree corners. This helps hinges seat properly in the mortise for a clean, professional-looking installation.

With a hardened steel chisel blade and self-aligning construction, the Milescraft CornerChisel is built for repeatable performance in the workshop or on the jobsite. It is an excellent addition to any woodworking tool collection for installing door hinges, cabinet hinges, and other hardware that requires accurately squared recesses.
