Very cool idea.
Now have to see if we can create tool paths to duplicate this process on the CNC. Then talk to the guy that invented the profile and see if the profile can be licensed.

If you make something idiot proof, all they do is create a better idiot.
this is a better job for the saw. unless your tale is perfectly flat you can't get the depth tolerance accurate enough. plus it would be slower too.
This style of drawer is not new, This guy just done this with a table saw. You can do this with a v router bit on a router table. They also make a special router set up to Make these style of drawers. Flagg My supplier of plywood sales the router set up. the last time I heard the set up with bit was 800.00 This included the router, and the device that held the router. The joints with the set up that Flagg sales is very tight and does not leave a gap... Most of Flagg's cabinet guys has one.

There have been specialist router bits for tables around for quite a while that create an almost identical joint as well. Once you've got guide blocks set for each material thickness they're pretty easy to setup. Like most of these things it's a pain for a one-off but if you're doing several at a time it's great.
