Yeah, they're finger joints. I use them all the time. If you invest
the time to create a jig, then you might as well use it. That's the
first time I've ever rounded them. I wasn't sure how that would go so
I tried it on a test joint. It looked great but at the same time it
wasn't an entire cabinet. Some are worried about illegal immigration,
but I could have used a mexican or two to help me run that carcass
over the router table....
Like the piece, like wood, like the rounded finger joint corners ... they go
nicely with the style. IIRC, it was Maloof who also started rounding off the
corners of his inset drawers and doors on pieces in the style of yours.
... might be a nice touch to consider if you do another.
I'd love to see some pictures of the Maloof pieces you're talking
about. If you have any links, they'd be appreciated.
