This is the first time I&#8217;ve tried making them, so it is a learning experience. The idea is 3 lengthwise dividers organized by two end pieces. The end pieces need dadoes. The scale of the project is such that the interior pieces are only 1\/8 inch thick. I don&#8217;t have a 1\/8 inch chisel and didn&#8217;t want to order one and wait. I do have an &#8220;Old Woman&#8217;s Tooth&#8221; router. So, off to the scrounge bin of Allen keys &#8230; some time with the hand cranked grinder &#8230; and some more time with the stones. The result is a 1\/8&#8243; router made in about a half hour.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bob-easton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/good-dado.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-3046\" alt=\"photo of divider gripped in a good dado\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bob-easton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/good-dado-150x112.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"112\" \/><\/a>The material shown here is a sub-optimal choice, but it will do. It is cedar which is quite soft and crumbles in fear when a chisel comes near. Slicing is the key to success, and that little knife is kept razor sharp for marking, and now for slicing cedar.<\/p>\n<p>Haunched dividers and stopped dadoes: a success, and fun learning how to make snug.
