Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Porter-Cable's 12-inch dovetail machine is a great, sturdy little tool, perfect for smaller (desk-drawer-size) projects. The machine sports a self-aligning edge guide and built-in slots at the base for mounting the device to your favorite workbench or table. Keep in mind, this is a machine designed to handle stock no wider than 1 inch (1/8 of an inch is the minimum). Setup is super easy--we were cutting dovetails in 30 minutes after opening the box. The results? Fantastic, beautiful, tight-fitting joints! If you're a woodworker ready to explore the fancy and fun world of dovetailing, Porter-Cable's machine is the perfect introduction. --Jon Groebner

5.0 out of 5 stars Cut great dovetails in no time, December 5, 1999
By "patonz" (Michigan) - See all my reviews
Purchased this unit 2 months ago based in part on review in 'Fine Woodworking'. Haven't regretted the decision. Followed instructions (which are very good)and was cutting great fitting half-blind dovetails in 1/2 hour! Note: Router guide bushing is NOT included, and must be purchased separtely. Further note: Correct bushing is NOT inluded in PC bushing set (go figure).

4.0 out of 5 stars Porter-Cable 4112 Dovetail Jig, February 16, 2000
I recently purchased this jig to replace another jig which was a pain to set up and wouldn't accurately hold the settings. The 4112 is so much easier to set up and hold its settings accurately. I especially like the heavy gage aluminum template - it doesnt flex or chip like a plastic template. And the edge guides are provided to accurately set the proper offset for flush or rabbeted drawers. One comment - the 5/8" OD guide bushing IS provided as well as a 1/2" dovetail bit. I think Porter Cable must have started including this recently. Makes beautifully fitting dovetails and Im very happy with the jig, especially for the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars 12" Dovetailing, May 23, 2000
By S. Wilson (Edge of Madness) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a great woodworking device! After taking about 20 minutes to set it up and about another 15 to fine tune the router and the Dovetail Machine, I was able to turn out perfect dovetail joints. This is great for making drawers and box frames. The fit of the dovetail is superb and I have incredibly tight joints. The jig itself is very solid and well built. I purchased mine in mid-May and it came with the collar and the 14 degree dovetail bit. Everything needed to get going.
