Pat Warner, how'd you do those dovetails?
Pat, Fifth photo from top, or second from bottom at
http://www.patwarner.com/t_square.html. Being a router guru, I assume you used a router. Did you also use a jig, like the Leigh, Akeda, or Porter-Cable? I must confess, I have not read all the text on your web page so I apologize if you describe how you did it somewhere and I was too lazy to find it.... |

It's worth the cash. Patriarch |

An interesting risk-free method, albeit contrarian.
The case work is assembled with trivial joinery (very shallow t&g, e.g.). Then with special templets and standard cutters the dovetail ways are cut. Spacing is arbitrary, cutters are too. Arrange to suit. Now make the pins on the router table, contrasting, subtle, or matching stock. Glue&Slide the pins home and dress ends and faces.

It is trivial; that's the point. Pins terminate square ended. The ways
were chopped square. A full width top covers the connection. |
