Hello does anyone no the thickness of the spacer taped underneath the lapped dovetail comb
Mine has gone missing , I think it’s a plastic or Teflon strip

Many thanks
 
I was looking at one recently. I would say the thickness was between 3 and 4mm. Just simple black plastic like acrylic sheet, nothing special.
I don't have the part to check it but the tightness of the joint is controlled by the depth adjustment of the cutter. As long as you are in the right ballpark, you will be able to get the jig to work properly from a few test pieces. Once setup, keep the cutter together with a simple depth gauge to help you reset the same depth in future.
Cheers
