    The router center in JFK do all the trend stuff, I have the old dovetail jig 300,limited in that it can cut basic dovetails,you need to buy and change plates for different size joints. They have a newer one out now, the 400, looks to be more like the Leigh,where you can adjust for different size and type of joint. Not cheap though.

    That one is cheaper,it's the one I have, the 300, does what it says on the tin, whatever one you choose it's still an investment,actually if you include all the different templates you'd need to cut any type of dovetail,it would probably be cheaper buying the leigh or trend 400.
