- I've been following the various threads on dovetail jigs over
- the past few weeks, but I'm still a little hazy about some things.
- It seems that for $200-300 you can get a PC or Leigh jig which
- does most everything, or you can build your own (much less flexible)
- jig from Woodsmith plans and parts for ca. $50. However, I've
- haven't read much about the lower cost commercial jigs (Incra (ca. $25),
- Incra Pro (ca. $70), etc.)
-
- Would some kind soul care to summarize the capabilities and
- limitations of the lower-end models?
-
- E-mail your response if this is a total FAQ.
-
- Thanks
