I found a reference to this tutorial by Joshua French, but now I see that all the images are gone:
viewtopic.php?f=10102&t=10511

Does anyone know if the images are available somewhere? Has anyone archived the tutorial?

Thanks!

There is a Youtube video by David Schramm that gives some pointers to doing the V joint. I think he uses the Fussen joint, what some people refer to as the Hauser V. In reality that joint dates long before Hauser. There are a number of variations. I'm guessing that the J.French one was the through V - the type that Romanillos employed.
Making accurate templates helps enormously, as does seriously sharp chisels. The best advice though is to get some scrap wood and do a couple of trials, just to get the feel.

I did a tutorial over at Luthier Com using Joshua's procedure of hand cutting the joint. Here is a link. I had a few more pictures than Joshua did in his tutorial here.

Here's another take on the joint.
