In this woodworking video, I show you how to make an alternative dovetail joint - The Knapp Joint. If you enjoy making or learning how to make dovetail joints, you will really enjoy the woodworking tips that I share in this project video.
This was a great challenge that I thoroughly enjoyed working out.
I'm very pleased with the results but I'm more than happy to hear of any improvements that could be made. :)
As always I'm happy to answer any questions.

I like how you say "I'll need to put my thinking cap on" to find an upcoming project to use this joint method after having designed and solved a method by which to create the joint in the first place.

Well done! I have a friend and former broworker at Shopsmith, Jim McCann, who produced a beautiful version of the Knapp joint that was featured on a lingerie cabinet that was featured in one of the Fine Woodworking design books. His scallops were almost full circles, so he renamed it the Beaver Tail Joint. He hand cuts his tails on a scroll saw, which as you can imagine takes a ton of skill and lots of time. I’ve passed the link to this vid on to him and I’m sure he will appreciate your approach and will relate to your journey! Thanks for sharing, Scott

Excellent video... a blend of old woodwork and modern machinery. The first joint you made that was very tight, reminded me of when I was stationed overseas years ago. I watched a Dutchman make a cabinet. He used this joint as well as various other tight fitting joints. That man never used a single nail or a drop of glue. He created the drawer pulls by recessing “hidden” finger holds behind the drawer face. It was beautiful, with a various mix of hardwoods. He hand rubbed it with linseed oil. Then I remembered reading books on furniture making in the traditional way, when craftsman didn’t use nails or glue. Your Knapp joint was simply beautiful.

@alexwood020589 4 жыл бұрын

Not sure if someone has already said this, but you didn't need to anneal the drill at the start. If you had tried to machine it, you would have had to anneal it (unless you used carbide tooling). When grinding, so long as you quench frequently to preserve the temper, you can re-shape steel in its hardened state. Heating and quench hardening introduces a lot of distortion which you could avoid by just re-shaping the drill in its factory hardened, tempered and ground state. Great video though! A really interesting joint.

It is also great fun to make one of a kind toys for the family children at Christmas. For those just starting out. The first tools I would buy 1: small band saw 2: power drill 3: router. With these three tools you could make a lot of furniture, etc. Later you can buy power sanders to save you time, and a bench top table saw can help with repeatable, accurate cuts. Be safe and have fun forever.

Fascinating! I love watching these kind of shop videos. People's creativity always amazes me. I wish my brain worked in this way.

Awesome video and you've shown me how to make an easy plug cutter, too!

Good idea. Commercial plug cutters leave a slightly tapered plug (so that you can tap it in and get a good fit). The only change needed would be making the cutout in the spade bit a little wider at the end.

The second joint is made by using a cutter from the side. Has to be long to do longer drawer sides. Or you need to use a horizontal mill configuration. (think replacing your table saw blade with a blade that is a point in the middle, with two radius concave falloffs on either side, and running the boards through standing on end. Sort of like a mirrored roundover dado? (I dont think that is a thing... but if you had mirrored roundovers.. something like that)

My parents have an old chest of drawers with this joint - now I know what it's called - thanks!

Awesome work, I love those little workarounds that crop up in all projects I seem to take on, with a little fine tuning and brainstorming theres always a fix. Thoroughly enjoyed this with all your improvements, you are a master craftsman sir....
