Ambrose,
It could be done, but I believe it would be the wrong tool to use.
Even a small dovetail bit would require quite a bit of energy.
Perhaps in that soft wood you could get away with it,
but a router or table saw would be better I think.
You would have to buy a dovetail bit and tell the machine it
is perhaps a 3/8" or larger bit, one pass at full dovetail depth.
What would you use to create the piece that you would slip into the dovetail route?
Ken,
