That's a great tip. Thanks for posting it. I just finished some cuts on oak veneered mdf core plywood and suffered some chipping that was annoying. Luckily it is hidden in a mortise, but I now I know a good way to stop that in the future.

I was actually planning to try some blue painters tape on the ends of my plywood drawer blanks before cutting the dovetails with a router to see if that would stop the tear-out. Sounds like it might! I'll report back after I try it.
