Hey Guys,
Is it possible to list the double sided tape, that was in the kickback mail?
Thnx
Just a quick note about Original Grain watches. I backed their first watch on Kickstarter and have purchased several models since. One watch had the bezel ring break after the watch took a fall off a tall dresser. When I contacted customer service they sent me 3 replacement pieces, so I could choose one I liked best, for free! They’ve been great to wear and great to work with when I needed to.
Hey Guys,
There is a lot of ways to scribe tails boards onto the pin board when making dovetails. Check out this video, He uses a Square and spring clamp. No leaving holes on the tail board from taking a ruler to it, no small rabbets, no special jigs, and no guess work.
