Recently, I purchased a Porter Cable 12” dovetail jig. Among other things, I planned cutting half blind dovetails for a few drawers in a chest. (This topic may have been discussed in the past, but I couldn’t find an answer).
Initially, I wanted to attach slides on both sides of the drawers. However, the slides are 1/2” thick, which requires rabbets be cut on both sides of the front panels.
Q: How can I cut the half blind dovetails with the jig if there are 1/2” rabbets on both sides?
Alternately, I considered using under mount drawer slides, but with floating drawer bottoms made of 1/4” plywood, it doesn’t seem a solid solution.
