Dovetail Jig

**Mark Damien** · 23rd March 2016, 08:05 PM

Hi all,
i found a Leigh Superjig 24, it was a hefty $400, secondhand from Gumtree. I'm trying 25mm thickness, the job I needed it for fell through, so will play around with it, build up a few test pieces! I have some drawers to do, so won't go to waste!
Their is a stack of YouTube videos on it too, one reason I grabbed it.
It looks a bit worn in the router guides, I think the bloke was in the St Ives Men's Shed, hoping things match up��
Cheers,
Mark

I designed them for 45mm KDHW and they work great.

What is a set worth to cut, did you need to get a custom bit to cut?

cheers,

Mark, yes a custom bit is required. That info is on page one of this thread. A parallel stock ball bearing cutter is also required. As mentioned in an earlier post, I could sell you a complete set (pricey) or I'm happy to send you the drawings and you could make your own from ply.
