Hi,
I have the opportunity to buy the MCLS dovetail jig with all of the extra templates for through dovetails, box joints, etc in mint condition for $65 shipped. That's about the top of my budget for now though I've found a 4216 with through template for $155, which I could maybe pull off if I waited a bit. I'm not using it for production, but want something relatively easy and reliable for making boxes and the like. I've read mixed reviews of the MCLS and only good reviews of the PC. Should I wait until I can afford the PC, or is the MCLS a good deal that I should buy it? I'll be using a Milwaukee 2 1/4 HP router. I'm not sure if the MCLS comes with bushing and bit but I have a set of bushings and am sure I can find an appropriate bit somewhere. Thanks.
