Next up: squaring up the ends of the dadoes.


There is certainly nothing wrong in doing that but there is no particuar
reason to do so as whatever goes into the dado can hide the minor gap if the
dado end is left rounded.

Personally, I leave them rounded, would rather do something else with the
time it takes to square them.



I also just leave them as is most of the time; an alternative is to round
over the portion of the board that fits in the dado. A rasp works well
and quickly.
