I have recently really gotten into hand cutting dovetails. So I go out and spend more for handtools than what a Leigh Jig would Cost. The main tool gloat is the L-N saw (in photos below). Even after purchasing all the tools I am still without a vise since my shop has no room for a bench. My solution is shown below. Works like a champ...
