So my "jig" consisted of a piece of maple mounted to my miter gauge and two lines drawn on it where to start and stop the dado. It prevent most of the tearout. Most of the dados do not need to be tapped into place. I ordered dowels and dowel centers (haven't used a dowel since high school) and self centering drill bit so the dowels line up. Will dowels glued into every dado stiffen everything up do you think? With it dry fit together it's kinda wobbly.
I still have to round all the edges and cut out the ends-and drill all the dowel holes.
The plan called for rails under the Top but I left them out. I think I might have to go ahead and add them. I think it will look better from the side if they are there.
Correction: There are currently only 84 dados.
