 | Leigh Woodworking Jigs |
|
Recently I have been blessed or maybe cursed not sure just which yet , to
have acquired a Leigh Jig (24" Model) as a gift from a very dear friend. Are
there any classes in the Dallas Texas area anyone knows of that teaches the
basics of this tool? I think it would be easier to have it demonstrated
than to have to learn all the different setups on the different thickness of
lumber.
Any advice or help would be very much appreciated.
---------------------
I just purchased the Leigh jig last Friday. By carefully following the
manual, I had completed two boxes by Saturday afternoon. The manual is
incredibly well written. The bottom line is that making perfect dovetails
takes practice and experience, regardless of the jigs involved. I've taken
classes and while they can make you understand the big picture, experience
is the only real way to become good at this method of joinery. My opinion is that between their included video and the manual, you should
be making gorgeous dovetails in no time. I think you'd be wasting money on
a class, assuming that such an animal existed.
