RE: The World’s Most Complicated Joinery
Friends and Creditors Alike,
For a large project, I need to purflingbutt the dado trim reveals with an oblique channel-plotted goosetail (blind) and join each radial section with a covert rabbet flange (sequester doweled), so that the projection angle scribed to the mangle rail is left proud like the traditional (Shaker) “Aunt Bea’s complaint” joint- of course rat-tailed in the back, but for surfacing reasons I don’t want to use a deflection adze if I can help it- I don’t have a rifled one.
Obviously, a carting-roll spanner jig will be necessary and I have the necessary three sizes of pledging saw, concave spoon planes (though these may be too small), and wheeking spokeshave trimmers. Wheeking spokeshaves as you know were originally used for bland scribing the boxing laps of hull planking and are difficult to find in small sizes.
Any ideas on doing a lot of these quickly? Will I need farling chisels?
Thanks in advance- this is the one place I know that can help!
