    I have used this technique on chopping board ends. It made a nice contrast with Utile and Sycamore.

    What you gave me is GOLDEN. I have been working on a scheme to make pullout trays in my lower cabinets. Already bought the bearing slides.
    The issue was that I wanted to make an upper tray adjustable without spending $150 per cabinet for a kit. The idea was to use 9 hinges and a recessed threaded knob to lock the boards into three shelf pin holes, fr CTR and bk.
    With a sliding set up, I can eliminate ALL of the hinges. Mount the shelf pins and rails to the boards and lock it all up with a knurled bolt from the side. I even took an idea from the Machinists and bought a 7 PC knurling tool on Amazon. I have a DeWalt parts bin with just 1/4-20 hardware. Knurling 9 bolts, screwing in a wood threaded nut and I have a means to make it work.
    Yeah, ALL of this, from your one tip. Thanks for sharing on TH-cam. I'm a disabled veteran and I have been planning my kitchen remodel for a month. When I get the cut list finished, we can begin.

      @@blacktimbercompany5716 I've seen a few people here that have a number of sponsors. And that's of if they are producing new content.
      But some have more TV commercial than helping people. I've even noticed a trend where some of them actually copy each other. A different Take on the same idea. It could be scripted. Now, I have seen the sliding dovetail as a parlor trick and made into a cube.
      That one has no real purpose. It's a shelf warmer ready to collect dust. I saw not only a novel idea. It's also a solution to my cabinet tray problem. You reinvented the wheel.

    As some already mentioned this is great for only inaccurate modules/assemblies, as pointed out in the description. Otherwise much tighter tolerances/play would be needed. The good news is the same idea can be applied, perhaps even with a circular saw with a bit of careful patience?

    This is great. I had a couple of thoughts regarding the female portion of the dovetail: I don't think you need to mark it out at all. The depth of the cut is already set from when you finished the male portion. So if you start cutting from the middle and turn (not flip) the board 180° after each cut then you can work your way outward. This has two advantages: the first one is that the female dovetail will be cut precisely into the middle of the board, secondly you only have to move the fence half as many times.

    Thanks for sharing the process. I have made sliding dovetail joints, on a much smaller scale, using a router. The operation of the joint you made would be smoother if you clean up the flat portion of the female piece with a chisel or router plane. Certainly paste wax is a great benefit, even after cleaning out the female portion.
