Back in the summer of 1987, master craftsman, Tage Frid showed Rob his ingenious method of finishing the saw cuts on the pinboard of a half-blind dovetail joint. Rob couldn't believe how well and fast his method worked - it was like magic! Neil, a student from South Africa, suggested I make Tage's idea into a tool.  That inspired Rob's Kerf X-10 (extend the saw cut - get it?).  If you cut half-blind dovetails you will love this tool!
