Process OCD...Our Cosman Dovetail...Process PDF of Process |
|
| Layout of pins through a normal process... settle on ratio that we have saw guides for... 1:4 1:6 1:8 |
 |
| Backside...rebate with skew block
plane... ~ 1/32 inch. |
 |
| Cut the tails with Toshio Odate
dovetail saw, ~1/64 plate. Use the appropriate Barron guide. |
 |
| The pin board is placed into the
bench vise...height adjusted to plane height. Tail board is placed atop pin board...the rebate keeps it set appropriately. |
 |
| Offset of the saw
plate (and the set) was determined using a Tite-Mark The blade is listed as 1/64 inch or .015625 inch |
 |
|
As part of the new OCD
process, the tail board was offset to the left then the kerfs
were marked on the right side of the pins (for GWG =
push left, cut left side of waste).
When the offset was moved to
the right, the kerfs were marked on the left sides of the pins
( for GWG = push right, cut right side of waste).
|
 |
| We later determined that that a
.013 leaf from the Glen-Drake offset gauge worked better for our alignment purposes... |
 |
| First efforts to scribe the
line...we used the Toshio Odate...the saw was placed into the
kerf and was used to scribe a line into the end grain of the pin
board. There was an issue that the kerf was not scribed all the way across the board... |
|
| ...this was due to the configuration of the front end of the Toshio Odate. |  |
| We then stumbled onto an improved
model...a Chestnut Tools veneer saw that we tried and like...it
is now called the Kerf Scribe Tool. |
 |
| Kerf scribe tool in the kerf. | 
|
It fit into the kerf quite nicely and the 50TPI cut a nice kerf line...only issues...push blade not pull and the blade is rounded. |
 |
| In the event that I decide to
seek an improved scribe tool...I purchased a replacement blade
for the Toshio Odate. I could then cut the plate and attach a handle. |
