Dado joints > miter

Plus, Miters are PITA to get perfect, but when gluing them, band clamps (whatever the clamps using the long strap are called) are fricking awsome.

Thanks topgun, I thought I was the only one that liked the dados. If I'm making a half decent box that needs to last, I always use dados.

They make the gluing easier too.

Except I'm too poor to afford a fancy table saw and a dado blade so I just use a router haha but it works.

I've always wanted to try dados but I don't trust myself to set the depth consistently on my router

Use a table saw...
