  • is it possible to build a box using dovetail joints?

  • @0neanimefan You sure can build a box with dovetail joints. There are all kinds to pick from, through dovetails, half blind dovetails, full blind dovetails, mock dovetails (or keyed dovetails) compound dovetails, and the list can go on and on. Thanks for watching.

  • Hey Chad, l iked the video, But which way is better (hand or router)? thanks.

  • @bvermilye There is no better way. Just the way that works best for you. As long as the dovetail is a good fit, it's all good.

  • Good explanation and good video as usual.

  • @deezynar Thanks for the support.

  • Followed step by step, came out great. Thanks for the upload, it was wierd, but very informative.

  • Could have been informative but I couldn't stand the humor to watch it all the way through.

  • Hi man , great video , thanks for posting.

  • Some good info...if you can stand to wade thru the manic, hyper-active, idiotic presentation. Why is it that people turn so foolish when a camera is turned on?

  • Very silly video, but was well worth watching the nonsense, very well explained, and very clear to understand, thank you very much, you teach really well....but please cut back on the humour,...Brad

  • Thanks for showin me a way to do hand cut dovetails. I have a request for you though, the dovetail jig that you show at the start of the vid, I have the exact same 1 but cannot figure out how to use it! Sowas wonderin if you would do a vid showing how to do so?

  • The stupidest thing I've seen on YouTube ! ... You should be a clown !

  • Yep. That's how to cut dovetails... Well one way anyhow. Thanks.
