I have not tried to make a complete jig. The generic blue monster jigs are
so cheap and do a decent job with half-blind dovetails that it don't seem
worth the effort. However, I have made my own templates to use with my blue
monster that allow me to cut through dovetails. Could send some pictures if
you are interested.

I was searching the internet and came across these plans for a dovetail
jig:

It is from an old Woodsmith magazine. Has anyone tried to make this jig,
or
another DIY dovetail jig themselves? I've been thinking about the
mechanics
of cutting dovetails, and it seems to me that it shouldn't be that hard to
make one. Any additional information will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Charlie
