Subject: Cabinets

I've been watching a lot of "New Yankee Workshop" lately, and have been
toying with the idea of a hardwood cabinet that is totally fastened by
yellow glue. For the corners, I was thinking about buying a dovetailing jig
and doing those interlocking corners. I'm still trying to decide if that
will be really cool or goofy looking. It looks wonderful on furniture with
an "Americana" look... wondering how a synth cabinet would be.

It's either that or 45-degree miters to hide one of the edges. 45 miters are
easy to do, but not strong enough for gluing without biscuits or a
supporting block on the inside.
