Thanks John. The older I get the more nervous I become at doing such fine detail work with a chisel. I just wish my eyes were 40 years younger but unfortunately that's not the case. I like what GR14 posted above ("When life deals you lemons, sometimes you just have to make lemonade") and that statement could certainly be applied to my eyes as well.

Thanks David and if you have questions please ask as I'll be glad to share.

Thanks Geoff. I shared the jig design here in hopes that it may help other builders struggling with the same task.
