RWW 51: Olympics Dovetails, Pins or Tails?

This episode I turn my attention to the hallowed dovetail joint. So many woodworkers approach this joint with trepidation. I was among those people until I finally jumped in and tried it out. Once I have actually cut a set I realized that I was making it too complicated and psyching myself out. Essentially this is a sawing exercise and you shouldn’t have to spend too much time with a chisel in hand to clean up the joint.
