Dovetails what's all the fuss about?

Well I certainly hope it was just in fun or I shall start making bespoke furniture. :lol: I have to admit it was very entertaining watching it. I can co*k it up using a saw one tenth the size of that one.

Hi

Just as a matter of interest, why use those ridiculously large saws. They looked most unwieldy, is that the european way or was it just part of the showmanship?

The latter, I'm sure. The whole thing was a wind-up.

Did anyone else cringe when Rob Cosman put his plane on the bench blade down, twice? At least he finally put it on its side! :shock:
Also i was wondering if in his DVD he advises chiseling towards yourself while using a mallet to drive the chisel? :lol:
Perhaps if he hadn`t given the running commentary he`d have got down to 3 minutes
