Guides you through all the Dovetail Steps with ease and accuracy, while cutting the learning curve substantially. The Katz-Moses Magnetic Dovetail jig is made in a mold from a virtually indestructible clear polyurethane for years of use. This is the same material used to make pool balls so you know how strong the jig is. It is then laser etched on the top and bottom for clean and easy to read labeling. The magnets have 10 lbs of pulling pressure to hold your saw firm to the jig. It also functions as a 90 degree crosscut guide which is a unique feature to the Katz-Moses Magnetic Dovetail Jig.
Check out these videos where I use it to make all sorts of cool dovetails :

Need to look at this more but it seems the engraved wording on the top of the jig and the shape of the post are not in agreement. 90* engraving gives a angled reference on the post for example. Wondering if this one may have slipped through QC and marked wrong. I’d like to discuss this with someone but there is no phone number to call with. The product has potential but until we figure out what’s going on I cannot reccomenc it. Feel free to call me John Edwards
United StatesI’m really pleased with my KM saw guide. I’m a weekend woodworker and don’t cut them often enough for good muscle memory. I’ve only been able to get good results with a bandsaw jig in the past. This is much more satisfying to use, quieter, and faster too! I highly recommend this jig. I used mine with a western style saw. I haven’t tried with a Japanese saw yet but will be buying one soon.
United StatesI've only used it as a trial or practice so far but plan to use it on a drawer next week. So far it seems very good for guidance cutting the tails (I do tails, then pins). I did glue sandpaper to the stem. otherwise you're juggling the slippery little devil all over the shop. I expect it will improve my hand cut dovetails.
United StatesGreat it's accurate, easy to use. Just a side note, I glued 120 grit sandpaper to the guide post for better holding properties.
United StatesI have never cut dovetails before and was able to get decent fitting tails and pins on the first try with this tool. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in cutting dovetails by hand.
