John, I cut my first while building Marc's Krenov Inspired Display stand using Marc's instructions and I was tickled s#*tless with the outcome. It included both half blind and thru dt's. 

You mean the Guild Build?  I was thinking of doing the wall hanging cabinet and it says he teaches dovetail case construction. Wonder if it's the same approach.

No, for the drawer on the Krenov stand he cuts the tails on the bandsaw and the sockets with a router and chisel.  On the wall hanging cabinet he actually builds two versions, solid wood and ply...he uses a dovetail jig for case construction and drawer on the solid wood cabinet, and I believe pocket screws for the case construction on the plywood version and some kind of rabbet for the drawer construction.  If memory serves.
