So I had to take the bottom pieces and cut the dadoes into them. I used the table saw, which has a special dado blade kit. Each blade is 1/8 in and since I needed a 1/2 in dado I put two blades on. Then I did one pass so there was a 1/4 in dado on one side then I would flip the wood and do another pass this would give me a 1/2 in dado plus it makes it perfectly center on the piece. Here's the set up.
On the right is the fence which is locked in to keep the cut straight and on the left is whats called a feather clamp which helps guide the wood so that the cut stays in the middle of the piece. Here's the end result.
