    I really liked the tip, where you used the plane to set the hight of the board in the vice then used to sit the second board on top. simple but really good idea.

    Thanks for the great tips. You recommended to me your "How to Use a Dovetail Saw Like a Pro" video and that was a tremendous help. "Slow down". Made a huge difference. I have been cutting a lot of dovetails and having a lot of fun. Thanks again,

    Thanks. I found out recently that real quality saws made a huge difference in my dovetails. I thought I had a good saws, but great saws made the difference. On soft woods sometimes I wet the waste to be chiseled with denatured alcohol. Thanks. I look forward to coming to your school some day! Love your channel!

    • @WoodAndShop

      You're most welcome! Yes, properly sharpened saws make a world of difference.

    This is a great video. I was just researching different kinds of joints and then wondered how these are cut and this was an extremely satisfying and thorough demonstration. I am very inspired to acquire more tools! Hope to watch more.

    I like the use of the light underneath the tail board when laying out the pins. I’ve not seen it done like this, and I’ll have to give it a try!

    Thanks a bunch brother. I believe I learn something that becomes part of my skill set with every different person I observe. I’m grateful for your addition to that cadre of experience I can draw upon. I keep playlists of skill, projects, shop furniture, etc to go back and review. These also often just are played in the shop on my television in the background; and I still get something out of them. Many of yours are in those lists and this one has just been added to my ‘joinery skills’ list. Again, thank you!

    Joshua, I enjoyed the video and will follow it. Dovetails are something I did at school in the 60’s but not since…and I have wanted to again for some time so thank you. A question please: what is the clamp which shows up near the end of the Step 7 and how does it work?

    I know back saws are better, but for now I only have a Ryoba... Would it be enough to start practicing?
    Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

    Maybe it’s a personal bias but I find the coping saw for cutting out the waste for dovetails to be “distasteful.”
