Bit selection is critical. You need to
select a specific dovetail bit for your
half-blind dovetail project, depending
on the pin board (drawer front) thick-
ness you are using.
• Choose one of the five 1 ⁄
2
" [12,7mm]
diameter dovetail bits shown above.
Check bit selection in Appendix II.
• Depth of cut must be as specified
for each of the five bits illustrated
above.
Note: Leigh bits 101-8, 112-8
and 128-8 are optional.
• Raising the bit above its specified
cutting depth will result in loose
joints and may damage the jig, bit
and/or guidebush. A lower setting
will result in tighter joints that may
not fit together.
• Small Depth of Cut adjustments
will change joint fit tightness. See
10-3 to 10-5 for why.
• Half-blind PINS and TAILS are
routed with the same dovetail bit
and must be at the same Depth of
Cut.
•
The e7-eBush should be set at 10
for ALL half-blind dovetail rout-
ing.
• All half-blind dovetail bits work
with the Leigh e7-Bush supplied
with your Leigh jig, or standard
7

"[11,1mm] outside diameter
guidebush.
10-1 Half-Blind Dovetail Terminology:
The pins fit in the pin sockets. Joints should almost always end each
side with half-pins.
