Learn how to build a drawer that will last. Drawers that are constructed with joints that fit well and provide quality bonding surfaces for wood glue can last for decades without trouble. One of the easiest and best ways to make the joints for a drawer box is using a drawer joint router bit. This router bit cuts a joint similar to a locking rabbet, but the rabbet is wedge-shaped so the parts fit tighter when clamped. A single bit routs both parts of the joint, and is capable of routing joints for drawers with applied drawer fronts, and for drawer boxes where the finished front is integrated.
