Thanks Glann; I sent for a catalog, I have a Crestline, and these look very similar, but will only do half blind, The dimensions may be such that thr Rockler through template can be adapted to it like I did to my Crestline and it really works great.I'm still working on the jig I am making to use a fixture similar to the incra guide bar, and you can do through dovetails in three cuts without the use of the templates. ref;www.woodshopdemos.com/incra4.htm.
catch ya'll later

I just picked that one up about a week ago -- haven't had time to do much with it yet though. (Templates are metal). Instructions leave a lot to be desired, but there is another document for a virtually identical jig that I'll get the link to for you later.

Thanks for the info Frank and Stan for the info I'm going to get this week. Wanted metal because. So I'll take my time with it.

Here is the link... it is for the WoodStock International dovetail jig, but the jigs are virtually identical..
http://www.woodstockint.com/dovetail.aspx
The manual is downloadable from the link above.

The Harbor Freight jig comes with the 1/2" template for the sale price. Additional templates (9/16", 7/16" and 1/2") are available for $9.99 each.
