How to make these Alternative Dovetail Joints (The Knapp Joint)

There's glue there that looks promising. Now I'm going to use the hardwood and see how it turns out. A new way for me to cut the pieces between the scallops is to use a gouge. This is a figure seven sweep and it's not exactly the same radius as these discs, but it's very close and close enough so there's only one cup of taps on each and it doesn't matter if you cut the

a little too . I can go between them with the oblique chisel again and clean up. a little further down the

. I'm trying different wood combinations and this one is silky oak and eucalyptus bay.

I think it's very exciting and it's repeatable and it takes less than 10 minutes to do a full join. joint While I was doing the black battle and the Oregon one on the right, I noticed that the holes for the pins were a little tight, but switching from a 10mm Forstner bit to a 10mm point drill bit made a difference and now the meetings are going well. Some additional things to the mold. I glued some paper underneath for a little more grip. I had a slip and that's much better. Now I put the fence on the outside, so now it's just a matter of picking up the workpiece and placing it. against this fence and just

Finally, install it and it will be ready to go. This template will

only one joint this size, so if you want to widen it with more scallops you will have to make one. new template making use of the original template It is a very easy task to make a new one. I made this one with 12mm plywood. I haven't tried it yet, but I see no reason not to make it work. If you make a template like this you'll need to test it and make sure it's accurate and there's no reason why it shouldn't be, but I wouldn't bother trying to cut those parts out and try to follow that.

Instead, I like to orient the workpiece. and then take it out of the template. I would use the original template and it is not that difficult. Adopt. You can really feel when it's in the right place and you can trim it and use a gouge or mark it with a pencil. I really think. It worked great, but if you have any ideas on how to improve it, share them in the comments. The only thing I would change He thinks I will make the pins a little smaller. I made them 10 mm. I'll make them nine. That just means. making the new cutter Now I need to use the

in an upcoming project.

I'll have to start thinking. I hope you enjoy the video. If you did, please like and subscribe. Thanks for watching and I'll see you next time.
