I have had my Akeda for about 2 years now and since I have the technology to hand cut I have only used it a few times on thru dovetails.
I have a few drawers to make and thought I would use the Akeda to do the half blind dovetails... Having never done half blinds with the Akeda before I prepared some scrap for a test run. I cut 4 joints all of which were too loose. I lowered the cutter slighty each time as the trouble shooting portion of the manual suggests when the joint is too loose.
Finally, the cutter was so low on my forth test joint that less than 1/8" of drawer front was left beyond the tail.
I measured my .438" bushing with my dial calipers and it is bang on .438".
Any suggestions?
