    MLCS Dovetail Jig

    Anyone familiar with the dovetail jig currently being offerred by MLCS for $49.95? It's there email St. Patty's day special. I am Irish and gullible, but hate being stupid, so before I pull the trigger on what appears to be a good deal, I'd appreciate some feedback from the wise ones.

    The fact that the bar that secures the workpiece is tightened by two independent knobs put me off. I got the Rockler on sale which uses a cam/lever mechanism and is quite serviceable. The MLCS may be fine and I can't speak from experience so take my comments with a grain of salt.
