No woodworking experience required.
Dovetail joints are a sign of true craftsmanship. Learn how to make a half-blind dovetail, a type of joinery commonly used in drawer-making.
Learn: Students will learn how to layout and cut a half-blind dovetail joint using a handsaw and chisel, for use on drawers and case pieces. Joining drawer sides to drawer fronts using the half-blind joint leaves the front of the drawer without visible joiinery while providing superior, interlocking strength.
