I thought the tip cited above was rather lame as well but I did find
their second tip of using 1/8" dowel to peg both sides of a dado joint
something I've never considered doing.

The sheet of masonite for a zero clearance insert seems like an
expensive way to save a little bit of labor but it's also one of those
"It would never have occurred to me to do that" ideas so I can't fault
them for posting it.

Just remember that this new "tool" can be reused, preventing recurring
costs.


On the other hand I do wonder how much strength the pegged dadoes really
add to a plywood drawer.

Well, since it's primarily end-grain joinery, probably a good bit.
