Woodsmith’s 25th anniversary issue contained an article about the Keller dovetail jig. I’d be interseted in hearing from owners/users of the jig about it’s ease of use and accuracy.
Thanks in advance!!

Ridgid R4222 Miter Saw
Especially considering the price, among the lowest of the bunch, the Ridgid R4222 has impressive adjustability. It has the largest crosscut capacity of all the saws. And the miter and bevel settings have the largest range of travel, and a bevy of detents. However, the power switch is clumsy, a bad design especially for lefties. The adjusters are either hard to use or hard to reach. Plus, its slider needs the most room out of any of the saws.

I have the Keller Journeyman for through D/T's on carcasses on donation jobs. I cannot speak for the more expensive Keller that does half D/T's. I do everything but the throughs on give-a-way projects by hand.
The Journeyman is simple and easy to use. The results are excellent if you want the look of machine cut D/T's and that's a personal choice.
