Porter-Cable Omnijig--Worth it?
Hey all,
I'm thinking of taking the plunge on a decent dovetail jig. It looks like the PC Omnijig has all the bells and whistles to make even me look good. Now the 24 inch version has been slated for release several times and now scheduled for sale in late February. Anyone think it would be worth the wait? The instruction video, starring Norm, makes it look almost foolproof. Anyone have any experience with the 16 inch version? Is it worth the $450? Is there anything better out there? Thanks, Mark |

Jeez, talk about timing. I was writing my own poston this topic as you sent
this one in. Look at the 4212 if you need a basic, but well constructed unit. "Mark Witczak" wrote in message ... Hey all, I'm thinking of taking the plunge on a decent dovetail jig.
