Upvoted because it's not a woodworking community without "my first dovetail" posts. Nice job!
Woodworking
A woodworking community for those migrating from Reddit.
and Boosted because it actually looks like someones first dovetail and not a masterpiece.
It's a masterpiece to me 😍
I mean it's no camel, but 'tis a fine first dovetail
That's more impressive than you think! Plywood can be really difficult to dovetail by hand.
@pinkraisons and with a construction saw, no less!
I think you'll find hardwood with a joinery saw gratifyingly easy by comparison @r4venw.
Not sure how to add a description...
I made this with a construction saw and some home depot chisels but it turned out OK! Feeling like this is a good enough job to justify getting real tools
Good first attempt. Like the other commenter stated you should definitely move up to a hardwood. They cut much nicer than plywood will. Just go to the store and find the cheapest you can practice on.
