My incomplete Arcoy dovetailer

[graduate_owner]

Hi forum users,
I was given an Arcoy dovetailer by a friend, but it was missing the dovetail 'fingers' and the means of holding the cutter. So I've been wondering what to do with it. The idea I've had is to use it to hold timber for dowelling, in conjunction with a cheap Wolfcraft dowelling jig which holds the drill at 90 degrees. This may not be a new idea, but it's new to me (since I have no instructions) and works a treat, with the timber held firmly in the Arcoy's clamps.

I have acquired an arcoy dovetailer, but part of it is damaged. Maybe the part you need is one of the bits I have left. Jules 07888 720290

A near ten year old post - I expect the thing's been scrapped by now.
