Works best with power tools and hand tools

I am new to dovetail cutting and have found it very helpful for accurate markings. it is flat and marks the tails in one go. Instead, you should line it up twice and mark the tails on the opposite edge.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Frequency

Useful, beautiful, little tool.

There are quite a lot of such items, but this one struck me as the best. I was not disappointed: it is beautiful and well made. Easy to use once you know what a dovetail is! Ignore the reviews about how difficult it is or no guide!

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Working speed

E. Somewhat serviceable for hand and power tools

There are better tools to wield a blade with. It's just a mock-up device and I think it's better than a piece of cardboard rated at 7 degrees, but not much better. So the rating is what it is. Works for part of the process but not that useful overall.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Functionality

Great tool for power tools and hand tools

Although I really like the product I was initially a little confused by the lack of instructions for this item as I couldn't find anything on YouTube I felt a bit lost then I did I noticed that the company selling the product emailed me with detailed instructions which cleared my confusion. The item itself is well made and high quality and makes a great addition to my tool arsenal.

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • Stock availability

Good tool for a beginner carpenter

I like this tool because it allows me to try something that would take a long time to master. This allows you to easily mark dovetails without having to worry about using an angle gauge or complex measuring technology. The tools are well made. It would be better if there was a video or guide on how to use this tool, but I think it might be pretty obvious for some when they look at the tool.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • I have no negative feelings about it, everything is fine

You can't go wrong with this.

I didn't use it often because I only bought it for quick work and it came in handy very quickly and made my job a lot easier. Definitely one of the best dovetail markers, I recommend it to everyone. Excellent build quality, it's made of metal and while it's a bit heavy it will definitely take a few drops on hard surfaces if it slips out of your hands. Recommend.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

Superb workmanship on power tool parts and accessories

This gauge is so well made it survived Revain packaging and shipping. They are packed in plastic labels like many other things. When Revain sent this out, they threw it in bubble wrap. When I saw the bag on my front steps, all crumpled up, I thought it was a return but inside the dovetail sensor was intact! Now it's well done. This is a very well made sensor that is a joy to use.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Purity

Great little jig and great customer service

The Dovetail Marking Jig is a solid and well made piece of equipment. I am very excited to start laying out, cutting and expanding my skills with hand tools. I contacted Clarke Brothers with a question about attachment and how to tell which angle is which. And they responded very quickly and helped. Did you send me a picture that quickly solved my beginner problem? I'll post the photo they sent in in case others have the same question as me. For now I've only tagged a few tails. But I will cutโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky
