I’ve been reading the various threads on the Akeda jig, as well as the excellent demo on woodshopdemos. It does look pretty straightforward, and for the cost of the jig, I would expect it to be capable of top notch work product.

But the question I have has to do with the bits and stock thickness. From what I can gather, the dovetail bit you use is matched to the size of the stock, for example, a 11 degree bit for 1/2″ stock. Is this a rigid scale that presents a problem with odd-sized stock? How does this differ from Leigh?

thank you in advance,
