Step 4Making a Dado Groove
Pic 15A-Layout the groove, marking it 1/8" to 1/2" deep depending on how much weight it will hold.
B-Clamp a square cut block onto the board to keep your cut perpendicular.
C-After sawing both sides, hammer and chisel down to the bottom line.
D-Finished dado groove.
An easier way to cut the dado is to use a table saw with a dado blade. A router with a flat bottom bit also works well.

Hey mikey77: Love the concept of wood only projects! Do you know of any good books (with pictures/drawings) about woodworking without glue, nails, and hardware? Thanks. craftykarla
