Good day all,

I am getting ready to start a new project. It will be a shelf for
mounting the head of a Kenwood TM-D700A 2m/70cm radio in the car so that
I do not have to drill any holes in my nice new car. I am considering
using either a box cut or dove tail joints as they are stronger then
butted joints. I will be staining the piece. Alas this will be my
first attempt. I have shopped around for some jigs but they very
greatly in price and would like to get some of your opinions. Please
note that this is strictly amateur hour but would like decent results as
it will be seen by passengers.

thanks for your inputs.

sincerely,
Glen D. Geen
