In this video, I show you from start to finish every little detail when it comes to cutting a lapped dovetail by hand. Believe it or not, these are actually slightly easier than through dovetails in many cases as the joint is only visible on one face as opposed to two.

I put you and Frank Klausz cutting the lapped dovetails in the queue next to each other and watched them both a couple of times one after the other. Rather fascinating and educational. Hope that doesn't insult you; it's quite remarkable.

have you seen that rob cosman has a tool called the kerf x-10. It finishes the angled cut. I haven't got a clue how it works but would be worth having a look. oh and keep up the good work.

I like your vids, well explained. Could you do a video on offset cock beading for lapped dovetail (curved) drawers fronts? Also offset (so the tail and pins sit proud 3/4mm) trough dovetail joints?

@AndreaArzensek 6 жыл бұрын

Easier than through dovetail, you're kidding - right!? Good video explanation none the less.

@MattEstlea 6 жыл бұрын

Well maybe not the process. But it’s much easier to get a clean looking joint at the end of it. Cheers mate!

Looked like you were using a Japanese pull saw on some of those cuts. How do you get fret saw blades thin enough to fit in the kerf?

@MattEstlea 6 жыл бұрын

They’re blades from a company called Pegas. Roughly 14tpi. Just make sure you get their feet saw blades and not coping saw blades, the latter are a lot thicker.

I apologise for such a silly question, but I get confused when I try to mark the face side and edge of my work. I made this joint today and marked the face side, but when I finished it was on the wrong side, and I am not sure why. Can someone explain what face side/edge refer to?

Is this where you'd use a skew chisel? Has anyone told you that you look like Canadian PM Justin Trudeau? www.burlingtongazette.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Trudeau-Justin-with-big-hair.jpeg

Yes, a skew or fishtail chisel works great here. And yes I have been told that a few times now!
