Kerf Plane & Sliding Dovetail Jig

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


I made a kerf plane(poor man's kerf plane) with a flush trim saw!Since I wanted to take advantage of a flush trim saw that has no set, I just put the saw blade to a plywood by epoxy glue. It's simple but it's very useful.The thing is, as all the part of the blade is touching (not angled) to wood and since it's a very fine saw, the teeth get jammed by saw dust and it's hard to move back and forth so I put the handle later.My original idea was just to use it for making a groove like one for dado fitting but as the project is just 5min thing I decided to make a sliding dovetail jig.It's not as noobie friendly tool as I thought but it's at least faster and more accurate than fabricating pieces by chisels for me.Footage: https://youtu.be/1SNXeQ_Apg8
