Does this jig make just standard dovetails? I don't want half blind or rabbited. I want to be able to see the dovetail on both sides of the corner.

This template does not. You would need the additional templates 4213 or 4215 that are available, to create through dovetails, box joints, or miniature dovetails

No. The PORTER-CABLE 4212 comes with the template to make through dovetails.

As far as I am aware, there is no angle/corner, be it inside or outside that this tool will not read.Pay attention to the exact reading/degrees, set your miter saw accordingly, make your cuts and get perfect joints first time, always. This is a really useful tool.

Yes, you can remove the fence and use your dovetail jig however you will loose the vacuum port as it is built into the fence unit.

To date, I have only planed alder, cherry and walnut. Recognizing the limits of ANY of the smaller planers, I tend to take more passes with less wood removed with each pass. I have had zero to minimal issues with snipe with this machine right out of the box.

Check closely... if the Java Jig looks like it has a ridge about 1/4 inch from the top, you have two java jigs stuck together. Pull them apart and only use one. It should work quite well.

A standard or bugle head screw would not work- it'd be too large to go through the opening, I think. And then it would show which would defeat the whole reason to use the jig. I've had a deck with these screws installed for 2.5 years now without screws loosening (redwood over treated framing).

Paul, sorry for the delay. A busy time of year for a minister. I'm not exactly sure about your question, so if you give me a little clarity I'll do my best. Taking a guess at what you might mean, there is a place to hold/store the miter gauge, on the right side. Is this what you mean? Or, do you mean to secured the angles cut (yes). Looking just now at the other response, I assume you mean to extend the gauge. Correct you can add, or clamp your own. Pls respond directly if you wish to revmike@churchonthepark. Merry Christmas.

Yes. I do this all the time on a B&D; Workmate with no jig and just two bar clamps. I only do this for small parts, though.

No, it is designed for a 3/8" dovetail. You could try an adaptor between the two.

Its possible, however, you may have to buy additional units. All the pieces come individually so you can cut the length of the top an bottom rail to the lengths you need. In order to make it around your "slight corners" of the oval you may have to make several "shorter" fence panels to make the curve then open your panels back up to full lengths down the sides. Hope this helps

You will have to remove the iron sights, the only place they could be mounted on the dovetail would require their removal. The iron sights themselves are really nice to use however, this is the sort of gun that I can't really imagine a person wanting to use a laser sight on.

On the box it has a picture of a piece you can put on it so it will run parallel to an existing feature. Mine doesn't have the piece but I didn't get the kit. I use it on 3/16 plate steel and its straight as long as you keep it straight. I'm not sure how precise it is because its not a big deal for what I've been doing with it. I haven't used it on wood.

Pretty much any width - it has a spacer key that will line up the tails. Go to youtube and watch a demonstration - always helps. This dovetailer works really well, BTW - very happy with it.

I made my own from 1/4" stainless steel threaded rods, wingnuts, and plywood. The two models I purchased were garbage, so I returned them for a refund. You may contact my for a simple design.

Yesyou can put the corner piece on either side...mine is opposite of the picture, so I know it works!! Hope that helps

Not all 1911s have the same dove tail cuts for sights. These sights fit my Sprinfield 1911 perfectly and my S & W 1911 poorly. I would put this question to both Kimber and Trijicon.
