Dovetailed Step Stools

Marc Spagnuolo

Marc Spagnuolo and Matt Cremona team up to show you two versions of the Dovetailed Step Stool: one using mostly hand tools and one using mostly power tools. This course is an in-depth deep dive into the world of dovetails and the resulting step stools are strong enough to support a baby elephant (we're pretty sure)!
