gday
the best info i found when i was starting finger joints was the woodsmith timelife series of books
especially the book on shopbuilt jigs and fixtures
it shows the easiest jig to build for making finger joints and also a good explanation on technique
check out your local library or 2nd hand book dealers
cheers dennisSome people are like slinkies - not really good for anything, but they
bring a smile to your face when pushed down the stairs .
