>Couple folks busted my chops for use of the TS to start learning joints but, actually, about all it gave me was a bit of a head start. Most of the removal wound up by hand (a good thing !)anyway. Working out the geometry of the cuts was'nt as I thought. Thanks for being patient. I "see" the basics now. Sorry, rotten pics. The joint is actually totaly closed ! So, add dovetail saw to the list !
