Hi all. I recently bought a secondhand D4 jig and have been trying to learn the ropes. I'm not too happy with how this trial cut has turned out, and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. As shown in the attached photo, I have some pretty significant-- and uneven--gaps from pin to pin. The middle pin is a reasonably snug fit, although not perfect, but the ones to each side have unacceptable gaps.
I might guess that this is because I moved the finger assembly too far in when cutting the pins, but I worked up to that setting very carefully, and the joint would not go together when the finger assembly was further out-- presumably because the fit on the middle pin was too tight and prevented it.
Anyway, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here and was hoping someone experienced with this jig could advise.
