Review on Enhance Your Cabinetmaking Skills with Sommerfelds Tongue Groove Cabinetmaking 2 Inch by Alfonso Alexander

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fantastic beat set! I wish there was a guide.

Overall this system is fantastic. Bought and used for a dressing table. The first time I did this and it only took 5 days. In the next house I will assemble the entire kitchen set using this technique. Pros: This spike and groove system is great and provides a near-perfect fit. Super strong joints. Many applications that can be used outside of closets. The height adjusting bits they produce are fantastic. Cuts incredibly well. Cons: I had to add an extra bushing to the collet to prevent either bit from hitting the collet before it came out of the bottom (critical for height usage). I wish I had some instructions that come with the beat set (instead I kept playing Sommerfeld's YouTube video to find out). You really need to use a tuner to get accurate fast.
