Description
The most common problems students have when learning to cut dovetails is how to make a plumb (straight up and down) cut on the pins and angled cuts on the tails. The secret is to develop the muscle memory so you can "feel" these cuts. I developed my Dovetail Trainer to help students quickly and accurately develop this "feel" and build lasting muscle memory.
-
Attaching my Dovetail Trainer to the end of your dovetail saw gives you a visual reference telling you if you are holding your saw correctly.
-
In just a couple days of practice you will be able to remove the trainer and make those critical cuts from "muscle memory".
-
Made from strong “Delrin”, its light weight and won’t throw off your sawing.
-
It adjusts quickly and easily for sawing “plumb”, 1:6 angle (9.5 degrees) left and 1:6 angle (9.5 degrees) right.
-
Fits any saw with up to a 1/4 inch thick back and holds in place with a non-marring nylon set screw.
-
Has highly visible green oil filled vial for a stable bubble.
-
Works left or right handed.
