Depends on if you have the jig permanently setup or not! If you’re trying to make a living at it, you have that shiz ready to go for 1 drawer or 25 drawers.
It depends, on a single drawer it's faster to do hand cuts (it takes less time than gig setup). So for some furniture, it'd be fine in 'production'.. but yes, it's a hobby. No, I didn't make the empire plinth. I'm having a hard time doing any real visible modifications.
No, I just hand cut dovetails for the hell of it Although since the move all my stuff is stored. I need to redo the garage and get a 200amp drop to it.
