    I just want to thank you for this video. You're an excellent teacher for beginner woodworkers, and this is the only video on dovetails that didn't completely overwhelm and confuse me. Excellent instructions and explanations. All my gratitude!

    Beginner using this to layout by hand. Thanks so much as , as a pretty handy guy, I was over thinking it and pulling my hair out over it! Thanks again for a fantastic and succinct explanation. BTW, you also sold me in the Veritas marking tool...just bought all three.

    Great lesson on dovetail joints. Watched 2 videos prior to this one that both overcomplicated this process. 👍

    Simple (in a way) to entice me into trying this. I'm thinking I may try laying them out on paper first and when I have something I like, transferring that to my stock for repeatability.

    Thanks for this. Is there a way to calculate how the dovetail joints effects the final lengths of the sides and width of the drawer (as opposed to just doing it using pocket holes for example)?

    How would you transfer the same tails/pins to the other side of the board? Just trace the lines over I assume??

    Great video. I've never cut a dovetail before but I got a Joint maker Pro for Xmas (great spouse). This really helps. But I'm puzzled about that sliding t-bevel tool. If 8 choose an 8 degree bevel (or 9 or .. ) how do I set it to that value? More important in the end, how will I set it to match the protractor on the jointmaker?

    Hey James! Can I count on you for this? See, I've got a 3.6 m x 7.8 m space for my shop on the first floor. It's 28 m2. It's 4 m height (concrete (bricks) walls) It's it any big? I'm struggling to lay it out to fit in it all my few machines, the one's I'll buy (or build) and specially a work bench! It's not planned to be a one man shop. No. I'm planning (I need) it to be a shop for at least 4 workers plus myself. Because working alone is not productive; thankfully there is a lot of work! Most of the shops I've seen over here on UA-cam are one man shops. How to layout a shop for at least 5 workers?
    I'm currently working on the second floor with only a table saw, portable tools and a drill press. My focus is to build doors, windows and bunk or loft beds, but I take mostly anything that's not too fancy because of my limited tools/equipment right now.
    Oh, could you help me some way? I hope so. Could be a good subject for a video, maybe. 😉
    If someone would like to help me, thank you a lot!
    Btw, I'm in Peru! Cheers!

    • @StumpyNubs

      That shop is smaller than mine. And I couldn't imagine putting 5 guys in my shop. Good luck with that!

    • @LoveZick
      @LoveZick 6 років тому

      Stumpy Nubs Haha. You see? I need to carefully plan it. But I think I forgot to mention that I have 3 x 7 meters more on the outside, right next to the wall enclosed main shop. It's a patio, but I'll work on that space also. This means several tasks will be taken to that place. I mostly need to layout a work flow in the main shop, tasks can be done/completed outside.
      Any ideas?
      I think you don't have tutorials or how to's for organizing and laying out a shop? Do you?
      Is there anything that my good Stumpy Nubs can't figure out? Come on 😝

    @ 1:18, "You can make a machined joint that looks like it was hand cut with very little skill or practice." Not really what I'm looking to accomplish. Haha! I'm sure that isn't what you meant. Thought it was funny though.

    You have not shown clearly the how the Router works. This is prime for this Dowel joint. It is waste to watch your demonstration. The secret of Router has been hide by you not to follow the viewer wood workers.

    Why not just learn to cut dovetails by hand?

    • @LoveZick
      @LoveZick 6 років тому

      Jani P. Because that's not productive. James' work is to help us improve our woodworking shops. Why? Well, what woodworker wouldn't want a better shop; which in turn is because that's how we woodworkers improve productivity.

    • @janitor6669
      @janitor6669 6 років тому +1

      I get the productivity thing and I agree. But "to make them look like they're hand cut" is the part that bugs me. Someone spends a lot of time cutting dovetails by hand and gets the credit for it, and then someone cuts them with a table saw and "makes them look like they're hand cut" and gets the same credit as the other guy. I'm surprised they didn't instruct to scribe marking gauge lines to make them look really authentic. Don't get me wrong; I'm not a hand tool purist. I just dislike someone making something with power tools and taking the credit for making it with hand tools.

    • @StumpyNubs
      @StumpyNubs  6 років тому +6

      Who is "taking credit for making it with hand tools?" Going for a certain LOOK is not the same as LYING about how they were made. That's like saying a CNC carving is dishonest because you didn't do it by hand. I didn't say you should go around claiming you did it by hand! This is just silly...
