8-13 Space and lock the three remaining guidefingers as shown.
Again, judge it by eye. If it looks right on the jig, the finished joint will
look right.
8-15 Rotate the finger assembly to
D
TD TAILS mode, and set
it to the "ALL" position on the scale. Lower the finger assembly
onto the spacer board. All TD tails are routed at this "ALL"
setting. (This setting allows the dovetail bit to pass completely
through all tail boards.)
8-16 Place the end of a pin board horizontally flush under the
guidefingers and mark a thin pencil line partly across the tail board.
REMEMBER SAFETY!
8-14 Tighten any other loose guidefingers.
8-11 Lock the left-most guidefinger with its center-line about
1
⁄8"[3mm]
in from the left edge of the board to form a half-pin.

8-12 Leave three guidefingers over the board. Lock the right-
most guidefinger with its center-line about
1
⁄8"[3mm]
in from
the right edge of the board to form the other half-pin. Judge this
distance by eye: it need not be exact. The sockets and pins will
align automatically.
