I am simple, I know, but the "canadian right" etc signs gave me enormous pleasure. Never change.

Maybe this is a stupid thought, but couldn't you have put a shim or thin gauge block under the gib while you were milling it inside the dovetail? That way you could cut it to size in one operation without milling into your dovetail.

Hey Quinn, I had a dream the other night and you were in it. It went like this: Somehow we ended up at the same Halloween party, and as the party was wrapping up people started asking for Tupperware so that they could take home the leftovers, only there was no Tupperware to be had. You said, "Hold on, I got this." Out of nowhere you produced a potters wheel and started to give a master class in ceramic dinnerware production. In short order you had produced plenty of ceramic bowls with lids for everyone to bring their nachos home. Somehow, I'm assuming through the magic of YouTube, the bowls were even fired and glazed. You saved the party. 😂 When I woke up the dream got me wondering... The potters wheel was humanity's first machine center, invented thousands of years ago... Do you suppose this is when the chamfer was invented? Or did they invent the potters wheel to make better chamfers? 🤔
