For quite some time I've wished for a dovetail jig. I could afford to purchase one but would rather have a go at building one from scratch.
I tried searches on this forum but nobody seems to have built one from scratch.
Looking around the web one sees quite a few but they all appear to require you to purchase a guide, which usually appears to be a phenolic plate manufactured by a CNC machine, nothing wrong with that, but I'd rather have a go doing it myself.
I eventually resorted to back issues of the Australian Woodsmith and came up with one in issue 11. This appears to be within the realms of my equipment and skill level.
Has anyone out there either contemplated building this jig or it's equivalent?
Mick.
