This is follow-on video to his highly successfully Hand-cut Dovetails video. After teaching thousands of students and receiving a lot of feedback from folks who watched his original video, Rob made this video which is an updated and expanded version of the original. This video now includes a lot of instruction on the preparatory skills needed to make hand-cut dovetails. Skills such as how to sharpen your chisels, how to choose the correct dovetail saw, what are the components of a good sharpening kit, etc. Rob also includes a lot of additional technique tips and exercises that were not in the original video.

Honestly I think that you should stop selling this video. Reorganize, reevaluate and reissue this “hand-cut dovetails” video.

Really helpful to an old sawdust maker who never before had the courage to try dovetails! Rob is right that it takes a lot of practice, and I'm still practicing with offcuts from other projects. I've watched the video several times and still go back to it. His tips on layout, lining up the saw, etc. are terrific. His whimsical sense of humor puts the right mood on this right-brain experience. It's comforting to know that, because he lays out the pins directly from the tails, it doesn't matter if I'm off a millimeter or so; they match anyway.
