That incra setup is amazing. A friend of mine has it, and it well built and very well thought out. Looking through the book that comes with it, just blew my mind. I'm sure you'll make some great stuff with your new setup. Good luck, and thanks for checking out my videos and commenting here.

I visited your site...good stuff. I've never seen a dovetailing jig like that, it interesting. My Incra LS TS will arrive tomorrow, that's how I plan on making dovetails in the future.

Hi Baro, I look forward to seeing your version of the blanket chest! Judging from your other work, I'm sure it will be fantastic. Good luck, and let me know if you need any dimensions or other details. John

Ah well... Armpit dosn't sound so bad as when we say 'Backside'! I am sitting on mine right now, shall we say? Lol! Thanks for the info. I will check it out. Mind you, your woodshop would make 6 of mine! John

Thanks for watching John. The dovetail template is from MLCSWoodworking dot com. There's a video devoted to the dovetail templates (check my other videos here on YouTube, and you'll see it) that I made for MLCS to give viewers a look at how to setup and use them. Check out that video, you will get a good feel for how they work. Funny thing about the language nuances. I once talked about an overarm dust collection guard on an Aussie site, they compared it to the underarm (arm pit).

Hi John; Did you shop-make the dovetail template, or is it a manufactured product? It seems much less fuss than even the Keller and that was simple enough to use. Oh, I had to smile btw... 'Backside' means something entirely diffeent in the UK! We would say Rearside or Rear face.. Obliged John W. UK.

You could definitely glue in the bottom panel since it was plywood. The one advantage would be the bottom may rattle a little less. It might add a bit of strength, but the dovetailed box is plenty strong. Adding the base make it even stronger. The only drawback might be cleaning up squeeze out on the inside of the box. Other than that, there's no harm in gluing in a plywood bottom.

Nice video! I'm curious if there are any benefits or drawbacks to gluing the bottom panel into the dado?
