Dovetail Jigs

Our January meeting is dovetail jig night. Steve Dando, who teaches dovetail jig technique classes with Woodcraft of Seattle, will be our presenter. Steve will bring three different jigs and review their features and cut some dovetails to demonstrate both through and half-blind dovetails. This is a chance to explore this mysterious tool with an expert before you pay out a bunch of bucks and get the wrong one.
