my wifes been on me to make anything to cover up all the soda, water, juice cases we keep in the kitchen for everyone.
She says she needs a new kitchen with more cabinet space, I laugh at that.
I promised her Id make her something, she said, anything, just 4 boards nailed together with a piece of wood to cover this mess.
So a simple box with 2 doors, and now I know I need to get either some dado blades for the TS, or a router table.
I had a cheap set of blades, but I returned them after I didnt use them for 6 months. Figured, router and the guide is good enough for one or two dados here and there.
Well, first pass went well, shallow, held the router perfectly straight.
Second deeper pass, its history.
Ill use it since I dont have much ply left, and I dont want to buy anything.
bottom line on both sides are even and straight. unless I build a jig for every piece I cut for a dado, its tough to get a perfect cut handheld.
