Dovetail template idea

I wrote a web application to set out and draw dovetail joint templates,
that you can print, fold over the end of the wood and cut through to
make the tails. Some of you may find it helpful. What do you think?
It lives here
http://www.blocklayer.com/Woodjoints/DovetailEng.aspx

Theres other wood, roof and stair calculators there to.

Excellent!

I've thought about coding something similar, but it
would produce a template for a Jointech (since I own
one, but not the template package).

Most excellent! Great for us newbies to at least run a few calculations
past your gixmo and get a look at the sorts of joints the numbers point
to. Also nice is that your calculator refuses unsolveable data.
