Dovetails are stronger and used mainly on drawers as when the wood shrinks the joint holds better, having said that with todays glues and kiln drying finger joints have started to out perform the old dovetail in strength and done correctly they can look as good as dovetail joints. Modern joinery has come a long way with most large and small projects being cut on CNC's of which I got to see a little one today.
Not to big for a 5 axis machine with a cutting area of 1.5 x 7.5 Meters.
Did think about sticking it in the back of the car when no one was looking, but would need a slightly bigger workshop. LOL
