Is there any advantage or disadvntage to building a drawer and adding a false, overlaid (fully exposed edges) front as opposed to building the same type of edge exposure but making the front as part of the box. I'd be using a dovetail-dado to attach the front to the sides. The reason I'm leaning more to the second is the fact that I don't yet have a dovetail jig and, secondly the sides are 14" high and ost jigs are 12". I do have a drawer-lock bit but that thing has a lot of mass and it scares me a bit. I haven't gotten a good joint out of it as yet because it intimidates me - wrenched a wrist in a kickback.
