    Default Dovetail drawer boxes

    I recently cut my first batch of solid maple dovetail drawer boxes on the ShopBot using JointCAM software. Very pleased with how they turned out.

    If you're interested I posted a short video to my Facebook page. You can view it at this link:

    I thought about making up a jig, but once I realized I had enough z clearance to use the Leigh, I figured there was no point in reinventing the wheel.

    Very nice Keith! I bought jointcam when it first came out but had not made a jig yet because of health reasons but i'm starting to work on it. Good job though

    JointCAM is a great piece of software. The user manual that comes with it is also very comprehensive and well prepared.
