Nice timing, they actually posted on Facebook yesterday that it's been released

https://store.shopbottools.com/produ...dhLI2wVMHQ7TCs

It's been added to my Christmas wish list

Thanks Scott,
I installed Fingermaker. It looks more daunting, but I will check it out... I can't remember if it has sharp angles on the mortises and tenons, I think it might.

READ Gert's DETAILED instructions!!!

He Beta tested it on this Forum, and does seem daunting, but a lot of that is because of all the options:)
If a Brand Newbie like I could do it 4+ years ago..then you can! :)

Keep meaning to get back into it, but things keep coming up(REMEMBER....Bit cuts using a LOT of cutting edge, make sure you have enough on your straight Ball Nose....AND bit will go into spoilboard the radius of the Ball Nose,so adding a separate carrier board is not a bad idea!)

Maybe G. will chime in?
I can't remember about square fingers:(

THANKS Dan!! :) Too bad I have an old Desktop with a single Y-screw in the middle!

Makes me want to go buy a Desktop Max!!! But at least they say this "This accessory can also be used with our larger gantry model tools by modifying the table bed, creating a slot so that material can be mounted vertically on the front face of the jig." just wondering what is involved in "modifying the table bed"
