Rockler Dovetail Jig

There has been some discussion recently regarding dovetail jigs. The Rockler Dovetail Jig has been noted as being the same jig as the one offered by Harbor Freight. I'd like to point out that the Rockler jig is not from the same manufacturer as the HF jig. The Rockler jig has some features which are important to note which distinguish it: - a wider body which gives more stable jig and more room for larger, easier to grip knobs. - a sandpaper type grip under the bars for a better grip of the wood. - one piece side stops which are faster and more accurate than a two piece stop set up. - side stops that can be adjusted without needing to remove the clamping bars - the jig accepts a through dovetail template which adds to it's versatility.

Steve, Thanks for your post. I enjoy reading responses from the industry as much as I do those posts from the consumers/users out there. Marc

WOW, they really do read our posts! That's reassuring. I have the Rockler dovetail jig and I can attest to it being much better built and of stronger material and better quality then the HF. But it's still built in China. Then what would you expect for $60.00.

Wonder if Black and Decker reads this newsgroup? hehehehe

shut up Leon, no need to reply, your on my Killfile and Plonked. Your replies don't score high enough to even show up on my screen!

Well way to go Steve. I am honestly impressed that someone on your end actually has a toe in the water. A lot of information is exchanged here. A lot of other things, too...

Thanks for checking in and setting the record straight. I am looking for a jig like this for a friend, and this just may be the ticket.

Robert
