help please screwfix dovetail jig 5/8 bit

[hunggaur]

hi folks i currently have a screwfix dovetail jig http://www.screwfix.com/p/12-dovetail-jig/17062 but the bit has just given up the ghost.

the manual says it is a 5/8 bit

i have tried both 3/8 and 1/2 bits neither work right and make a usable joint as the angels are all out

the question can anyone point me in the right direction for a bit that will work with the jig the best i have found is a draper 14mm bit (will this work ????)

many thanks

jon

ok just had a look at manual on line so you want ...1/4 dia...5/8ths dia of cutter and 5/8ths long

ok Dave

been on screwpeople fix no cutter for sale

16 mm is the equivalant of 5/8ths"
