Much as I'd like to take credit for it, it's not my design. But, I did
have enough smarts to realize how good it was and grab it right away.

If you would like I can provide you the actual plans although they do not
show my printing on the jig as the prototype does. IIRC the printing notes
to not letting the router rotate, you needed the handles to remain clocked
the same. That was because my original design called for use of a step on
the inner rails that would accommodate a router bushing as the guide. I
later trimmed the step off and went with a top bearing bit to ride directly
against the guide rails. That worked perfectly regardless of which way the
handles pointed. Then I posted it.

I should be ok without the plans. If I have any difficulty
constructing it, I'll email you.

As I see it, the most important factor to the jig is to have the
vertical and lateral sections fastened together exactly at 90?. The
rest should be simple. The only other decision would be how big a
board width capability it needs. I figure a maximum dado length of 24"
should be sufficient.

Precicely

I was going to make a shorter one abou the length you have in mind and a
longer one, 48" But later ended up buying a dado set as I seldom just make
a few dados at one time. My jig is great and faster for a few quick and
accurate dados.
