You also need to purchase the router bit from Sears, they seem to be the only ones to sell the odd size.

John check your local library for a boo/video by Mark Duginski called mastering your bandsaw. He gives details and demo's how to cut dovetails on a bandsaw. Also there was a link on shopsmiths site on cutting dovetails on a bandsaw. Wait here it is http://www.woodshoptips.com/tips/051704/index.htm same idea as Mark D except the angel is different and no jig.
Also here are some other great tips
