I have been working on the oak night tables. There is a drawer that miters into the cabinet leaving just a line,. This is an old detail I have used, but I am not sure I ever posted it. It requires some carefull table saw work. The sides and carcass top are cut from one piece. These are construction photos...there are still marks and very little finishing has been done. The drawer elements "float' over a solid oak base and then the stainless legs go below. The best way to cut the shorter miters is on a sled where you adjust the blade to 45 degrees. Another pointer is first cut 1/8" over the line and then cut the line. The blade spins freely since it is not trapped in the material. This way there is less resistance and no burning in hard wood. You probably knew that???
