Hello,
I'm working on a simple cabinet: two sides, top & bottom, back, and some shelves. All the parts look correct except for the rabbets on the two sides for the back. No matter what I do they're 1/4" wide. The backs are 1/2" material. Shouldn't the rabbets be the same width as the thickness of the material for the back? Perhaps I missed a setting somewhere, but I've looked through all that I've been able to find, and nothing I've tried changes that 1/4" width.
Regards,
Denver
