ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a template for forming tapered sliding dovetail joints. The template is particularly useful for making tapered sliding dovetail joints using powered hand tools, such as a router. The template has a longitudinally extending groove which is narrower at one end than at the other. To form a sliding dovetail groove, a workpiece is placed underneath the template, and a dovetail cutter is passed along the sides of the groove. The template also has two longitudinally extending grooves which are tapered towards each other. To cut a sliding dovetail tongue, the end of a workpiece is placed below the template so the edges of the workpiece are exposed through the grooves, but the middle of the workpiece is covered by the template. A dovetail cutter is passed along the sides of each groove, creating a dovetail tongue. The template may also be secured to a dovetailing jig, to provide secure alignment and holding of the workpieces against the template.
