Sliding dovetail

As all woodworkers know, the sliding joint is very strong and dynamic in application, from case building to rail joinery. You have probably seen what a sliding dovetail looks like. It is a combination of a dado and the dovetail, with a dent on one side and a tongue on the other side. Since both dent walls are also called groove walls, and the tongue sides have angles like the dovetail, the joint's assembling has to be done by sliding the tongue into the groove side from an end.

The canted walls tend to give the sliding joint an upper hand over a dado. The joint resists tension mechanically; this means that the board on the tail can't leave the groove board. In the absence of adhesives, the parts remain linked. To separate the two parts, the wood must be crushed.

This feature of the joint makes assembly routines easier. You won't have parts destroyed while you are working with clamps. Your two hands are usually enough for assembling, even in the case of multi-part, just like a drawer chest. Panels that are slightly bowed can be drawn into line without bogus clamping configurations.
