Dovetail box making
Strong enough to hold together without nails or glue, the dovetail joint is a beautiful way to form the corner of a box or drawer. Creating a well-fitting dovetail joint with hand tools is a challenging but highly rewarding task for woodworkers.
Join us in this 2 day course and learn the skills necessary to mark out and cut dovetail joints and then use these skills to create a small wooden box with dovetail corners.
BenchSpace will provide tools and materials. All you will need is determination to learn and a fair amount of patience!
