| 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." |

| Registered User New Member | I have a project that combines end on end dovetails (walnut & hickory) with through dovetails. To keep the pattern of the dovetail on the edges from the end on end, I’m looking for instructions to keep this same pattern on the through dovetails using my Leigh D4. Specifically – the tails would be on the outside of both edges vs. the pins. I’m thinking it’s some kind of combination of rotating and flipping the finger assembly. Anyone know of a trick to do this? |

| Registered User | Go to Leigh website and access its video library or view its online manual. The instructions from manual are very clear. The D4R and D4 are almost the same in terms of making the joins. Use Google to seach for the "Leigh Jigs" website address and then look for the support tab. I tried to paste the links here for your convinent but was blocked by the system. Sorry about that. Good luck. |
