Back in the summer of 1987 master craftsman Tage Frid showed me his ingenious method of finishing the saw cuts on the pinboard of a half-blind dovetail joint. I couldn't believe how well and fast his method worked - it was like magic! Neil, a student from South Africa, suggested I make Tage's idea into a tool. That inspired my Kerf X-10 (extend the saw cut - get it?). If you cut half-blind dovetails you will love this tool!

I have not used this yet, it looks very well made. I thank you for your teaching on how to make hand made dove tails.
