Hand cut Dovetails (lemmy.world)

These are not my first dovetails but it has been a while since I've cut them. This set were not very good but I'll slow down for the next ones.

It’s one thing to watch people on the internet make beautiful joinery (Mr chickadee) and another thing to do it.

That’s amazing work; my perfectionist ADHD combined with terrible spatial reasoning skills conspire to ensure it’s a hobby I’ll avoid.

Thank you very much :)

If you don't mind jigs and power tools it's still possible to do woodworking.
