Cutting dovetails by hand vs router jig - the router wins every time for production work
Spent 3 years forcing myself to hand cut dovetails on every custom piece because the old timers said it was the only way, but last week I finally caved and bought a Leigh jig for a 12 drawer kitchen job. Cut all 96 joints in 4 hours with zero waste versus the 3 days I would've spent chiseling. Has anyone else dropped a hand tool method for a power tool and felt guilty about it?

96 joints in 4 hours, but how many of them actually fit tight?
