does anybody know what the main differences are between this jig and the "General Tools 860 dovetailer EZ Pro dovetail Jig" (cheaper one)?

The 861 is the improved model. 3 main differences:1. Flat blade screws for depth guide have been replaced with hex head screws. 2. The clamping wing screws have been joined with a bar...to provide more secure clamping of the workpiece.3. A round knob handle has been added to each end...to improve functionality when using with a router table.Other than above, they're functionally identical.

Is this jig take 14 degrees or 10 degrees or 8 degrees bit???

Hello Shabnor,It comes with a 14 degree bit, so I imagine that is the recommended one. Thanks.

Is the scale at the front in mm or inch?

It is in inches to show the height of the Dove.

Can it be used to cut a rabbeted drawer front? That is a drawer front with a lip on the sides to hide drawer slides

I don't think you could do that with this jig, there is no way to offset the pins to have a lip. I would make a separate drawer face to cover the slides and attach it to the drawer
