Am I missing something obvious....
I typically set my marking gauge using the end of the tail board thickness and scribe the baseline for your dovetails on both faces of the pin board..... A little difficult with a lipped drawer front....Am I missing something, or do I just have to measure the width of the tail board and then scribe the line with a knife and a square? I tried a couple drawers with this method and I'm was not happy with the HB dovetails...Not sure if it was the layout or something else... Any other tricks?
