Hi SB

The tightness of the Joint is govern but the finger templates and it's all automatic so to speak and all you need is set the height of the bit to the stock thickness...
The easy way for me is to put the stock in the jig and put the other part of the joint right next to it and draw line and then move the bit or down to the line,the line thickness will let the pin stick out just a bit when it's glued up..then sand or use a trim bit to clean up the joint..
