FS: Leigh Dovetail Jig (Price lowered) - rathomp - 09-11-2020
Leigh 1258R Dovetail Jig - $220 $195 shipped
This is the Leigh model prior to introduction of the "D4 Pro" and the "Super" series. I would consider the 1258R as closer to the "Pro" models since it is machined/cast aluminum. The jig listed here has been outfitted with the D4RKIT upgrade which includes the Cam locks and parts for single-pass dovetails. Includes eccentric bearing and wrench, User Manuals for 1258R and D4R Pro. No router bits are included.
**A Note from Leigh **
All technical bulletins for 24” D Series jigs may be used with the D1258 and you may access these at the following link; http://www.leighjigs.com/support.php#r12
The User Guide for the D4 dovetail jig is directly applicable to the D1258 series jigs. Although some of the jig parts differ slightly in appearance, all procedures for Through, Half-blind, Sliding dovetails and more, remain the same. The current D4R User Guide may be used, but the D4 User Guide is more applicable and it can be viewed and downloaded free from the Leigh web site, and printed if desired.

Is this the 1258R-12 or the 1258R-24?
Thanks,

A new week, a new price: now $195 shipped

Considering the seller just knocked off $25 and is already covering shipping, that seems like a solid deal for someone. I already have the 24 version.
