Chris is a master and watching him always mesmerizes me. I wish the video had a narrative. The folksy music was ok, but I'd rather hear Chris. Thank you for sharing.

I've never seen this done before, so I find it very interesting. Thanks for this upload. I do, however, agree about the music. It's far too loud. I put it on 'mute' right at the beginning. In contrast to the distraction of the 'Ye Ha!' music, are the Paul Sellers videos, where the viewer gets to learn *much* more than the technique being demonstrated, thanks to the on-going remarks by Paul Sellers, which are full of little extra tips as they occur naturally in the course of the work. Your video is very good, but I'm sure it would be better if you adopted a similar approach.

Well, I'll be danged. Cutting through the miter to tighten it is brilliant and simple. One of the forehead slappers.

I like the video and enjoyed the music. Old timey Americana goes well with hand tooling.

Well so that's how y'all do that, I'm thinking it maybe a little harder to do then what you made it. Thank you for sharing this 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

It is much harder if you miter the whole joint and hide the dovetails.

How bout blind miter dovetails? Up for a challenge? Ok I have not event hand cut any dovetails in my lifetime that I can honestly recall. I find traditional joinery fasanating, it brings woodworking back into an artform insted of just craftmenship. Japanese joinery is especially unique as it uses the woods own properties to help it hold and less on glues and mechanical fasteners like nails. Dovetails do not really need glue if they are done right and hold in the correct direction to oppose pull apart forces.
