Default Dovetail Jig opinions sought

I'd be particularly interested in hearing of experiences with Woodrat or
Router Boss machines, both of which appear to be extremely versatile.


My experience is #13 in this thread http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthre...light=dovetail

Listen to what CharliB has to say. I spoke with Kevan at Akeda many
times before I purchased and he has a lot of respect for Charlie
although he has never met him(me neither). Go to the Akeda website
and read the reviews. CharlieB has one there. http://www.akeda.com/

Here is a video also of the smaller, older version.

Here is a review by Woodshop Demos http://www.woodshopdemos.com/aked-1.htm

Enjoy your dovetail jig search.
