I've been asking questions in order to get a case built for my Leigh Dovetail Jig. I finally got around to finishing it, so I just thought I'd post it here. I originally made one out of 1/2" ply, but it weighed a ton, so I was trying to find a lighter material to make another. After asking for advice here, I decided to use some cheap HD 1/4" birch ply, that is actually 3/16" and very light. I used the jig to box joint to corners for added strength. The ply had a tendency to chip while cutting the box joints, so I had to use an spiral bit to help reduce that.
My fear was that the 1/4" was going to be too thin to take the weight, however now that it's done, I see that it's plenty strong to take the weight of the jig. It's not fancy, but it works. Take a look...
