Published on 18 Mar 2015It takes a master woodworker to teach the basics. Watch Paul’s every move in this video. He shows every single detail of cutting this essential woodworking joint. This is one of the three joints that Paul talks about in his woodworking curriculum.
The housing dado is the essential shelving joint. It is the strongest way to suspend a wide horizontal board by passing it into a vertical piece such as a bookshelf. It has many other uses, such as the back of a drawer. Although there are many variations on a theme with this joint mastering the most simple form is the most difficult and important step.
