Dovetail Log Cabin - Cutting Dovetail Notches

In this video we go through the process of cutting a dovetail notch. We are using 10x6" spruce logs. We made two jigs to use on each end of the log (link below for plans). Using a Stihl MS170 chainsaw + guides attached to the chainsaw bar, we made the cuts on the logs.

Hope you enjoy the video!
