I've never tried dovetails, I could only hope to do as well. I'd probably just do a corner brace and call it done, though.
god i love dovetails
Same here! The wood is thick and really wet right from the hardware store. I cut the joinery using panel saws because the teeth of my back saws were too fine. It came out pretty good, even if it's utilitarian.
Fingers crossed they stay straight on you as they dry out.
