I am hoping to do a half housing joint on woods of different heights but the same thickness, but I am not really sure how to do it.
I think (that's where my plan fails) that on the shortest height strip of wood I need to cut out from the top to half way down (appx 1/4"), the longer piece I would cut from the bottom so it slots in place. How far do I cut out the bottom? is it the full height of the smaller piece or is it the same amount from each piece, so appx 1/4" from both?
