I've got a Leigh D4, the thinnest pins you can do, measured at the widest point is 1/4" but only in material upto 1/4". If you go upto 5/16" pins then you can use 3/8" stock or 3/8" pins will work on stock from 1/4" to 1/2" thick. There are several larger sizes as well, this is for through dovetails.

All the half blind dovetails are 1/2" withe the angle changing as they get longer for thisker work.

This should give you an idea of whats available

Do you mean thickness of wood stock used or bit size?? I know you can go down as low as 3/16" for timber thickness with the through dovetails.You can cut 1/4" wide dovetails using the 50-8 bit.

All I want to do is make a raptor box out of 1/8 plywood so wether it is through or blind DT's it don't really matter.

Thanks for the link Jason
