I'm taking a break from my dovetail jig and Veritas dovetail guide to learn the classic handcut dovetail. The concept of the joint is actually much simpler than jigs, or actually even just using the guide. That is why I lie it so mich. I'm having fun with it but success is alluding me. My major sticking point seems to be cutting in relation to the line.
Do I split the line, cut on the waste side, leave the line intact, leave a shadow of the line? Help please. I'm nearly there but need some tips from those more experienced.
Thank you.
