Observation

Candidates were required to make a lapped dovetail joint.  They were expected to mark out dovetails with dovetail marker or sliding bevel so as to get the correct angle.  Few candidates followed the correct procedure.

Each candidate’s final workpiece was to have: three tails (6 pitches, 6 sides and 4 shoulders) and three sockets (6 sides, 3 ends, 3 bottoms and fitness of joint).
