You do great work. Like you said make a mistake and it is ruined. It looks like you made no mistakes. :)

Great looking whatever it is. Now tell us, did you cheat and hand cut the dovetails, or use a jig? Thank you
for sharing.

I jig everything I can, and run samples several times to make sure. That way when I do it for real, I only have to do it once. On this job, it would have been very expensive to do it twice.

Great looking work. I'd be worried about cutting one dovetail that was just a little bit off. What jig did you use on this?

These dove tails were done using the Leigh dove tail jig with their largest bit option. I practice on several pieces before doing the actual top. Having the luxury to do it a second time was not an option
