3D Crucifix joining question
I'm going to cut this cross using Bubinga and have a question about joining the material. My plan was to cut two pieces with the vertical piece appearing as one piece on the face with a dado (not sure if this is the right term) the thickness of the material on the backside for the horizontal piece to lay into (glued). The Horizontal Piece would have a dado also to accomodate the final thickness of the two pieces being the original material thickness (.82").
I intend on cutting the depth on the horizontal piece deeper than the vertical so that the cut into the vertical piece is only about .20" so it remains thick.
This may not be a clear description of what I'm planning so either way, how would you join this for machining? I have a single plank that's 6.25"x8'x.82". Not that it matters but the final product will be about 26"x15".
Thanks...
