Hand-Cut Dovetails: A Beginner’s Journey
Most dovetail videos show a master craftsman breezing through his thousandth set—and it can feel downright impossible to replicate at home. We decided to flip the script. In this course, you’ll watch a total beginner tackle her very first dovetails… with one of the world’s best (Rob Cosman) as her coach. It's fun, lighthearted, and informative.
Not only will you learn the art of hand-cut dovetails, you can feel good about your purchase as 50% of the proceeds will go directly to the Purple Heart Project, an organization that helps combat-wounded veterans find peace and healing through woodworking.
