The biggest one I've used is the 16" Porter Cable OmniJig. Truthfully, I never got very good at using it. It took me forever to get it setup and dialed in everytime I wanted to make dovetails. I guess I just never used it enough to get good/fast at it. That said, once dialed in it made great joints.

They make 24" but imagne how must better his chest would be with hand cut dovetails.

 

Buck here is a link to the one I have.

THANKS JOHN, LOOKS TOO COMPLICATED FER ME.

 

I don't use a normal dovetail jig but, I do use a box joint jig. I wonder if you could use the same principal. Cut the first set of dovetails then move the jig over to make the next bunch, using a dove tail key to position it.

You can on the one I use. It will work for dovetails or box joints.
