>Adam, in the August column you said that you "deepen the dado for the shoulder. I think this last step is a food idea. Making the divider's shoulder a little deeper than the dado seems to help get a nice tight fit." Wouldn't deepening the dado for the shoulder on the socket mean that you get a sloppy fit? Maybe I am misreading.

Sorry about this John. What I think you can't see is the step in the divider. The back half of the divider fits in the dado with a little slop. The front half over hangs it. See you really need a little slop in the dado joint width wise just to get the dust board or divider in. But the last little bit must be tighter than that if you want a tight looking joint.

So the divider is stepped. When I sawed the dovetail on the divider, I sawed the shoulder proud.

Okay second crack at this isn't much clearer. If you still don't get it, end me an email offline and I'll put up a blog page showing these parts in better detail.
