After getting my Incra I was able to cut box joints and 1/2 blind joints perfectly within 1/2 hour of getting the jig setup. I was totally puzzled on how to do through dovetails and the instruction manual didn't cover them.

This video made the easy setups for centering even easier. I wished I had viewed it first. It also shows how to prevent tearout when cutting the outside waste from the tails.

Now that I can now see how easy through dovetails are(hint - you still have to hand chisel part of the joint due to the round bit being used).

This video also covers the double dovetails and sliding dovetails.

It's too bad Incra can't just throw this in with the cost of the jig. It would make the experience of opening the box and using the jig a much more enjoyable experience.

INCRA - maybe you could make this an option for say $15 when packaged with the jig!

for the first time user you need this video. will save you time and frustration.you will be able to use the jig, is awesome!!!!

The video I received was INCRA LS Positioner Instructional DVDby Incra. I don't think it was a mistake, because the part number on the DVD case matched the part # here VDOV1.

Well, you get this with the LS positioner free, no need to order this if you have the LS, and no reason to order this if you don't, so..........

Even though this video was not for my older Incr Jig, it cleared up many of the questions I had. Once I realized that my printed templates were not exactly like the ones for the newer model, I was able to adapt the information in the video to apply it to my jig. Its the basic principles that are important and this video conveyed those effectively.
