I can’t imagine not being able to find the v-groove bit. If you can’t find the router bit you can do the same with a regular bit just in 2-3 passes. First set up the normal V-groove to the max. make the first cut then raise the bit a bit more and make a second cut, etc…

Thanks,

PS: I check around to see if I can find the router bit.

This joinery was made without cleaning up and hand fit for the live video. We want ed to portray the fact that it was cut without any video tricks. Pine also has a tendency to fuse up a bit when cut on a miter.

Thanks for the comments.

This tip, however, with the miter/rabbet joint, has me questioning something pretty basic, when it comes to the actual visual part of the tip. In the picture, I see tear-out on the finished piece, and I see that the miter joint itself appears to have a big shadow, or gap of perhaps 1/32-1/16 (hard to say, interpreting a visual like this). But it does appear to be ill-fitting.

Those two visual elements make me wonder if I’m mis-interpreting what I’m seeing, or whether a re-do on your part might be in order, before presenting the tip to a discerning audience.

I hope this comes across as a friendly critique — I have appreciated your splendid work for some time now! — and I expect to continue in the same way . . .
