[Shop-talk] cove (or 'dish') style cut on a piece of wood - Back again for the third time

[Jim Stone]

I know this discussion has been put to bed twice already, but a friend just sent me this link and I couldn’t help but think of the topic:

I don’t know what to think of this.  Part of me wants one really badly.  And the rest of me wants fingers.
