Probably not.


_I_ can, with woodworking tools. I built period reproductions of French
Revival decorative furniture for about 20 years.

Except for a table saw, most of it with hand tools, per the authentic
methods. Doing fit-ups to a thousanth is a must if joints were to be
perfect. (and yes, I know about the growth of the wood, but some joints
demand that precision)

No metal fasteners in them, either. Gauche'.

I can do dovetails you can't see a gap in by hand, too. Can you? I
doubt it.

Well, Lloyd, it appears Leon showed you his. How about you showing
yours... to Leon.
