Brown’s Shaker-inspired cradle is crafted using compound-angle dovetails. This feature gives the cradle its angled sides and makes the interior more accessible.

I agree with Dodoak. I am in the process of building a smaller doll version of this cradle and the compound dovetails are giving me a tuff time.
