This web page came about due to my interest in, and desire to learn how to hand cut dovetails. During my research/travels on the internet I came across a number of links (articles, tools, tips, etc.) which I found useful. You will find them below. I am not affiliated with any of the firms/individuals listed on this web page and have not had any dealings with most of them. Caveat Emptor.
