Hello everyone. I am also fairly new to the forum and to using a dovetail jig.
The manual says that you can use different thickness boards for the joints. It appears to me that a 3/4" front and 1/2" sides would be fairly common. While the manual says you can do this it does not have an example for the setup. For example, it has instructions for cutting the half blind dovetails with both boards being cut at the same time with the same bit. Does this work where the thicknesses are different? I have even looked at the advanced manual on the Porter Cable web site and it does not cover the topic. Also, I htave an adapter for my Bosch 1617 for the bushings and am considering the TurnLock base for the Hitachi I also intend to use where two bit setups are required. Any help or suggestions will be appreciated.
