Default Like cutting Dove Tails by hand?


You are going to love this one.

I'm not trying to be critical, just trying to learn. (Not that I'd ever
attempt anything like that)
Some of the "seams" seemed a little ragged, maybe with some gaps. What
does one do when that happens, even with a "standard" dovetail?
Can it be fixed/hidden or is the piece basically ruined/used as is?



Leave the minor imperfections - to show that they're hand-made !
:-) or call them "distressed" dovetails ...?
I like 'em but would never attempt them either .
