If you have a problem with dovetail saws, it will be with setting. None of the setting tools I've seen - notably the Eclipse 77's - goes beyond 12 tpi. In 77's, the trick is ti find one where the 'Made in Great Britain' label is cast inside the handle in a single line. Later ones had it on two lines, and have a broader tooth hammer, that is difficult to use above about 10 tpi.But if anyone has identified a setting tool that goes up to 16, I'd definitely be interested!
