Customer Reviews

Rob's Dovetail Square is "your third hand" when cutting dovetails.   The Dovetail Square does three things at once:

  • Sets the tailboard and pin-board plumb in the vise.
  • Sets the tailboard and pin-board at the proper height in the vise.
  • 1:6 dovetail angle to assist you in starting the saw at the proper angle.

If you hand cut dovetails this simple device makes cutting your dovetails a little bit simpler and a little bit more accurate.

  • Dimensions: 7 inches (178 mm) wide x 4 inches (102 mm) tall x 3/4 inch (19 mm) thick.

  • Adjustable handle.

  • Has 1:6 dovetail angles on both sides.

  • Fits hand planes No. 3 through 7.

So simple yet so incredibly helpful

It has become second nature in a short period of time to grab this to make sure my boards are square and consistent height every time I place my boards in a vice. Dovetails or not!! But for dovetails it makes positioning mindlessly reproducible. Reproducibly consistent positioning leads to more consistent results

Dove tail square

Very handy and easy to grab use, so I actually use it. Very quick to check saw angle and put it on its side to see if you re perpendicular also. Adjustable for height. Well thought out tool.

Dovetail square

Very nice tool, extremely useful for handcut dovetail setup. Dovetail angles on the side are a nice feature
