    I love it, especially how you left the welds. I was thinking it would be better to sand it to a brushed finish to hide scratches, but now that I see it, I really like it. Scratches happen, but that doesn’t mean we have to hide them, or enjoy something while it lasts.
    If you’ve got time, I’ve got a question…
    I hope it’s not offensive to ask, because I really love your technique for box joints, but have you ever thought about building Matthias wandel’s box joint jig? Not that there’s anything wrong with the way you do it, I just wonder if it’s something you’ve thought about. I’d love to see if there’s anything you would change about it to make it your own, or if it’s something you’d genuinely use.
    I always end up thinking about whether one RUclipsr watches another that I happen to watch, and if they ever get inspired to make something in their own way or just do it for themselves.

    • @1pcfred
      @1pcfred 11 месяцев назад +7

      As the name suggests dovetail joints look like a dove's tail. They're angled fan like. \ / What's used here is called a box joint. Which is often confused with dovetails due to a superficial similarity. They are considerably different joints though. You'd be hard pressed to cut decent dovetails on a table saw. I won't say it can't be done but no one does it. machined dovetails are cut with a router and a jig template.

    • @dougidoug

      @ejthompson4950 11 месяцев назад +1

      @@1pcfred You can cut decent dovetails on a table saw, but you have to build jigs to make it happen. I want to say Tamar at 3x3 customs made a video about it years ago, and made some damn good joints with it. They didn't look hand cut, but they were certainly dovetails. Although given the jig and the setup time, if I were using a table saw I'd go box joint as it's a much easier and more repeatable setup. So you're right, it can be done on a table saw but it's a lot of work.

    • @1pcfred
      @1pcfred 11 месяцев назад +1

      @@ejthompson4950 the main problem is the corners of the tails are not right angles. So they cannot be cut properly with right angle tools. No jig can change that either. You'd need a beveled blade to cut that angled corner. But no one has one of those. If you want to machine cut dovetails you use a router. That's the sensible solution. It's what everyone does.

    • @kronographer
      @kronographer 11 месяцев назад +1

      @@1pcfred ridge carbide makes beveled blades for making exactly that sort of cut. I don’t remember if Tamar used special blades or cleaned up the corners with hand tools. It is possible and the tooling exists but unless you’ve got a production shop setup running multiple table saws for each blade type and angle…. No one is really using the tablesaw method at home.
