I first came up with this joint for a student project several years back. A one-off solution that solved her connection challenge. Inspire to make a sample to evaluate for an end table project I'm contemplating.
First try on my CNC for the projecting dovetails failed miserably. Cut that end off, revised the file and double checked my setup on my CNC before trying again. This time the joint fit tight, and with a push snugged up securely.
