When you think of fine woodworking one joint comes to mind, the ubiquitous dovetail joint. It symbolizes exceptional craftsmanship and quality. One always though that there is a secret to cutting dovetails, well not any more. You learn how to hand cut dovetail the same way I was taught by my old master long ago. It is simple, straightforward, & can be accomplished by anyone.
