I have a lot of thoughts but it comes down to one question. How tight do you want the fit to be? Would a really loose sliding fit work? Can you get away with a .010 gap or a little more on the dovetails? More details later tonight.

I've read that it can only be reasonably achieved using a CNC. However. I think if you somehow used a dovetail jig (i was thinking the portercable dovetail jig because that's what i have) to properly space the cuts and offset the 2 pieces so you cut both at the same time, it could be done. Anyone have any thoughts/recommendations? Anyone try something like this before? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Legacy Ornamental Mills" group.
