You could make the drawers more simple by just making box construction using domino’s with no dado. The base of the drawer does not need a dado either just domino the plywood to the bottom of the drawer box.
Interesting.. you build the drawers and use the dominos more for aesthetics than as a joint since you have the rabbit joint already. But I like it.. its like a 2nd joint that should make the drawers stronger especially given the pulling direction and the rabbits.
Thank you for showing your workflow! Your drawers should be very durable. Do you use 1/2 plywood for the drawer bottom, and is your plywood slightly under 1/2"?
Nice job. I like the look of the exposed dominoes. I assemble my drawers similarly with my dowelmax when I want to use a contrasting wood for the dowels. It adds a nice pop of color.
Thanks for the feedback. I’m always trying to work more efficiently. The issues I had with dominoing a but joint is keeping it aligned and preventing slipping. What I currently do is my current best method. 1h 15m from raw plywood to installed drawer using one piece flow. If you’ve got advice on how to do it better/faster I’m truly all ears
I agree just do the thru domino on a butt joint. I’ve seen other videos of them being made without slippage. I’ve seen enough of your videos to know you can figure something out.
@@DaileyWoodworks an hour and 15 min for a plywood drawer box? I do solid maple 5/8 dovetailed in about 30 min per box from rough sawn 4/4. not sure what you're doing differently I can do plywood in about 15 min per box

@@b3owu1f that’s about right. The dominos reinforce the joint. I find it easier to add them after. Rabbets just make assembly easier.
Why not scrap the rabbet dado and use the dominos for alignment/joining?
@@greggibson7485 I find a rabbet simply makes it easier to align everything. With or without is fine.

Love the look of the Dominos!! & Your Daughter standing in the drawer!! 😳 strong drawer!!

Love the domino idea instead of pocket screws. I guess you have to watch out for the brads that you used to tack it during the glue up.
Good job great explanation
Awesome Job
This technique seems to have a lot of wasted time and effort. Just use the domino on a raw butt joint. Done.
