I'm new here and old everywhere else! Just a frustrated wood tinkerer...
Pic is created with tinkercad. I am making a cabinet of sorts, 3 sides and a top... the sides right now are 1/2" ply, the 'corners' are 1x4 pine, 45 degree cuts to make ends pointed <===> like that, then blind rabbets connect the sides to the corners. Cabinet is about 28" high, 14 deep, 24 wide (pic not to scale) Eventually I will make triangle corners to fit in, .... so how badly am I doing this? I would like great connections where corners meet corners, but don't see anything but glue and clamping...
