Subject: Re: [OldTools] advice on finger (box) joints?

.if any one is still interested.. 

someone did ask for photos/comments, so I know at least 1 person is !

so progress to date.   ..still need to complete a little keeper for the 4
bits that will go with the driver - this will be installed on the left hand
side.  Then oiling and then hinges/catches.

there are comments attached to each photo - you need to open them to read
it.

my comments are..quite easy of course, but time consuming to make sure the
joints are cut nicely in the soft timber.   Now I know what to expect, I
hope the next one will be better.

I will try cutting the next lot of joints  with a Chisel only and not use
the saw at all.  Should be an interesting experiment but will probably be
after Christmas.
