Hi all, firstly thankyou for the opportunity to join the forum. I have been viewing the posts for a while now to find information and sometimes for a laugh , I thought I would finally join up.
Anyway here's my problem, I recently bought a Eurojig dovetail jig with the through dovetail template, unpacked it, set it up, and within a short time I had produced a very good through dovetail on 1/2" pine, after practicing a fair few times I adjusted the jig to dovetail a piece 18mm. Finished playing at that size and decided that 1/2" was a better thickness for me to work with, so i reset the jig up for that, however now I cant seem to make the nice tight joints I was making at first. Most of the joint is OK, its just that there's a small gap on the sides of the dovetails, the rest of the joint is fine. I have hopefully includes a pic of the joint. I have spent hours and hours adjusting the jig to try and fix the problemm such as adjusting the jig out a bit, in a bit, adjusting the depth of the dovetail and straight bit, and alot of scratching my head, so far nothing has seemed to work. Could it be the actual dovetail bit?
Thanks
Nathan
