I was watching documentary about sashimono woodworking in Japan and noticed at the end the guy pulled mini bench that was made with sliding dovetails so it is portable. For me it was a chalenge and an excuse to start learning sliding dovetails.

5.jpgHere i positioned the bench as how should be, to transfer the lines for the other sliding devotails
6.jpgmy granddad is cutting small pieces of firewood for the winter, from them i made the dovetails for when the bench is closed. They were glued on the marks from the previous picture.
7.jpg8.jpg I made mistake cutting inside the lines, so i had to remove the glued dovetails. Next time i did another approach. First i made the dovetails with a handplane, it was more eyeballing till u get good fit. and then glue them on to the marks.
