Hi! I just got the Prazi Chestmate but I’m having trouble using it and I’m wondering if I’m missing something blindingly obvious? I have tried several different bits but I can’t get it to be 1 5/16″ from the router base to bottom of dovetail bit. I’ve tried different length bits with 1/4″, 1/2″ & 3/4″ shank with no luck. My bushing is 9/16″ and dovetail cutter is 1/2″. Can you help? It’s driving me crazy! Thanks

Are you saying that you need a dovetail bit that's nearly 2" long? I don't recall ever seeing one that long. Did I misunderstand you per chance?

A Woodworkers mind should be the sharpest tool in the shop!
