Jigs and Fixtures This area will be directed towards the art of designing specific jigs and fixtures. Bob and Rick say, "if the specific operation is to make more than one piece the same size and shape then chances are you need a jig and/or fixtures."

Default dovetail jig

I was recently watching the router workshop and saw bob using a jig to cut dovetails for a drawer.

I wonder if he made it or if it is available to buy somewhere? Looked like a slick way to make the joints.

thanks del, appreciate the input, i think making a dovetail on the router table makes so much more sense than the "fussy" jigs and using a hand held router

Just a Note Brad

I have wanted to get one also (like the one del has and OakPark / RWS) BUT the price has me in a hold patten, I know WoodStock Int.Inc. will come out with one that wil be 1/4 the price of the others, like they do with most of the tools they sale...just a hint it will not be to long, I think, because this type of jig has been out for about 5 years or so.

it is the easest one to use 1 set up and you cut both tail and pin you just turn the jig around on the router table i use 2 routers and 2 tables one for each bit you just switch tables to the other and i can cut both in the time you do with switching the board and setting it up of course with 1 table you switch bit's just depend's on how much you do some are better or easer to use lot's of ways to cut dovetail's del schisler
