Yeah, this might be a new record for necro-posting. But I'm happy to see this thread at the top again; it gives me the opportunity to point to Don McConnell's post (#33). If I had a list of the top 10 posts on SMC ever, this would surely be near the top. Not only for the specifics of edge jointing, but also for the larger lesson about the importance of learning foundational techniques rather than relying on methods that might be easier for beginners but ultimately inhibit the development of real skills. It's well worth a read.
