Questions about Season 1, Episode 1, the oak medicine cabinet:
1) Does he really need to nail on the face frame? Won't the glue hold
it in place?
2) Does he need the dowels to hold his thru-tenon on the door? Won't
the glue alone hold that joint place also?

I would be inclined just to use glue, but maybe I'm wrong about that.

If had a nickel for every time he said "to hold in place while the glue
dries"!Â*

I always figured a lot of his tool and production choices were driven by
the fact that he had tool sponsors who wanted (as in expected/demanded)
their tools be front and foremost to continue the financial backing...

Yeah but if you are actually selling your work and or trying to make a
living you would be using a nail gun too. I do. ;~)

While not using a nail gun or similar short cut tool is nothing any of
us want to do, it saves time and time is.......money..
