Review: Glad to have it in the workshop. - It is really nice to have and works great. Made drawers that went together perfectly. It took a while to set up, and we had to order additional parts for our router. Only comes with one template, so that’s a bummer. Most of this is in the description and you should expect it. However, it’s still a bummer.
Review: Fine Tool - I have worked as a professional furniture /cabinet maker since 1980 and although this is not a professional tool I find the results to be more than adequate. My need was for a quick portable jig and this fits the bill. The initial results were excellent and my project is complete. Take care and go slow with the router, pay attention to your alignment and your results will be fine. I do own a professional jig for the shop and still hand cut many dovetails but for this job I have no complaints. Bottom line, I am very happy and will use this tool for many projects.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is the router bit 1/4 inch xhaft**
A: I believe it's a 1/2" shank but I'm not absolutely sure.  It's in my shop up in CT and I'm in NYC at the moment, so I can't check it.  I'll check this weekend and send confirmation.  But your router should be able to handle 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" shanks with different collets.

**Q: Can I make 1/2” box joints w/ this set up? Without buying anything extra.**
A: Yes, you can make box joints with the 4210.

**Q: I am getting a Festool 1010 EQ Router for Christmas. I have a Model 4210 porter cable dovetail jig. i need to know what bushings and bits to buy**
A: I believe the bit is a 3/8 dovetail bit. I bought mine when I bought the jig. I would look up the jig on amazon and go to the "people who bought this item often buy..." I think that's how I got mine. Hope this helps.

**Q: Dose this come with the router bits and guide rings?**
A: The Dovetail Jig includes the following. 

Jig BaseTemplate - Model 4211
Router Bit - Model 43776
PCTemplate Guide - Model 42040
Lock Nut - Model 42237

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Relief
*by M***E on May 25, 2022*

I started out with the $38 Harbor Freight dovetail jig. It does work, but it’s not the Porter Cable jig. The Porter Cable jig makes the dovetail process so much easier. And, it works with greater precision and ease. Granted, I got my feet wet using the Harbor Freight jig, but I wish I had started out with the Porter Cable jig first. Also, it is more cost effective to buy the upgraded version of the Porter Cable jig with the additional templates.
