The D4R is undoubtedly the most versatile dovetail jig on the market today. No other jig offers the same incredible range of joinery options right out of the box and no other jig offers the amazing range of optional templates and attachments. With the D4R, professional joinery is within easy reach of the beginner and journeyman alike.
A rugged one piece aluminum extrusion, CNC machined on the top and front, is the base of the D4R. Side stops, against which all boards are placed, are machined right from the jig body ensuring precise joint alignment every time. The top side stops are also undercut to allow easy routing of rabetted drawer fronts without the need to offset the matching tail board.
Boards are held securely against the machined non slip textured clamping surface by tough and fast acting cam action speed clamps and aluminum clamp bars.
The heart of the D4R is the infinitely adjustable guide finger assembly. The pins and tails of each joint can be arranged to give that elegant hand cut look, not possible with template jigs. You are always assured of a half pin at each edge of the joint regardless of board width.
Five optional templates expand the D4R’s capabilities to include Finger Joints with the F2 template, Isoloc Joints with three Isoloc templates (six patterns) and Multiple Mortise & Tenon Joints with the M2 attachment. No other dovetail jig does so much, so easily and so well.
The D4R works with any router you own and just two sizes of template guides, 7/16” and 5/8”, are required. Leigh has a comprehensive set of guide bush adaptors for most major router brands. Please refer to the template guide bush chart for information on your router.
Leigh dovetail jigs are shipped with three superior strength 8mm shank router bits. Additional bits are available to suit any joint, large or small. See the Cutter Selection Chart for complete router bit information.
A router with a ½" or 8mm collet is required to use with the included 8mm shank cutters. A ½" to 8mm collet reducer is included as standard equipment.
