Hi Henry
1st. let me ask are you using the plunge router or the router table ? blind dovetails ? or ???, how thick is the stock ?.
You should NOT need to sand the joints,,,, you will have a small learing curve to get them right but the key is using a scap block to set the height of the bit. (on the router table)
Lock the stock in the jig ,move the bit to the blank stock and with the scrap block on top on the fingers move the bit up or down just so the bit is just over the top of the scrap block ( by 1/32" the norm)

Did you know that you can make joints like the ones below with your new jig.
