Vertical dovetails

Post by hmatyas »

Is there a vertical dovetail gadget? I would like to make a dovetail box using a dovetail bit.

Because the forum software doesn't allow attachments with ".vgadget" extension the file is uploaded as "EasyDovetailMaker.zip". Rename this to "EasyDovetailMaker.vgadget" after downloading and before installing. Do not extract the ZIP file if you want the Vectric software to automatically install the gadget.

To install the gadget into Aspire/VCarve Pro choose on of the following methods:
  • with Aspire/VCarve closed you can "double-click" on the .vgadget file in Windows Explorer to automatically load Aspire/VCarve and install the gadget.
  • if you already have Aspire/VCarve open you can install the gadget by using the menu option: Gadgets > Install New Gadget...
If you use the latter option you will need to restart Aspire/VCarve to see the new gadget on the Gadget menu.
