Hi my name is Theo Cook, and I've made this Japanese dovetail joint. This one isn't a how-to video - I'll make another joint soon and be more in-depth about how to make one yourself. So please subscribe to my channel and I'll post the next video soon. • To see more images of some of the pieces I have made and things I'm working on please follow me on Instagram at / theo__cook • • Here's a bit of history about me and my training. • I’ve been a furniture maker for more than 20 years, over which time I’ve been lucky enough to study and work at some of the finest workshops in the world. • As part of my five-year apprenticeship at the Edward Barnsley Workshop in Hampshire, in the U.K. I spent a year studying under James Krenov at the College of the Redwoods in California, • Following my apprenticeship, I stayed on at the Barnsley Workshop for two years as a craftsman, before working for prestigious furniture-makers Senior and Carmichael as a senior craftsman for nine years. • I currently teach cabinetmaking at Robinson House Studio in Newhaven, in the U.K. while working on my own creations. • To find out more about Robinson House Studio furniture school and other courses, go to http://www.marcfish.co.uk • During my career I have been awarded two Guild Mark certificates by The Worshipful Company of Furniture Makers: one for a side table I produced while at the Edward Barnsley Workshop and another for a mechanical cylinder desk commissioned by the Marchioness of Bath. Images of the desk can be seen at: http://senior.atspace.com/ladybath1.htm • I have also had the privilege to make a commission for a duchess and a display cabinet for the former Lord Chancellor that resides in the Palace of Westminster. • goo.gl/gVfGkb
