I have done half lap before, but I also inserted dowel pins. It made for a rather strong joint (and I kind of liked the look) - still solid after about 10 years. Of course, that project had nothing to do with a speaker (which will be issuing constant stresses). I really like the look of dovetailing, and with the proper jig I see no reason why I shouldn't be able to execute such a joint. I did a mortise and tenon joint before too, but not with mitered cuts - that seems a bit more complicated.Thanks again - I have some practicing to do!
