<blockquote><strong class="quote">Greg Goodman wrote:</strong><p>This is a three part video tutorial. The author uses a bandsaw to hog out some of the material in the rough cutting stage. This is handy but not necessary. Use a sharp chisel from both sides to prevent chipping on the underside of the cut. Some people will use a sharp drill bit to remove the waste that the bandsaw removes in this video.</p> <p>If you work only with hand tools, start like the author does, by leaving a small amount of material behind when making the rough cutout. Then pare to the line with a sharp chisel. Again, work from both sides of the material to check for square work and prevent chip out.<br></p> <p>If anyone would like to practice this work at home, we can arrange to loan you a bag with the tools needed and some scraps of practice lumber.<br></p></blockquote><br>
