Dovetails are one of those joints that woodworkers love for their beauty. Choosing the rigth dovetail can give your furniture an unique look and personality. So, why not to draw them before cutting them?

I just modified a little the tutorial, now should look even simpler. The reason is that you could have some trouble using the copy/paste function and maintaining lines on the correct axis. Now I use the Move/Copy tool.

I'd like to thank my friend Dave for his hint! I think he's great and helps me giving you the best practices in using SketchUp.
