Drop Leaf Rule Joint Using 1.5 Inch Stock

I'm no authority since I've never tried one but the profile seems to allow for the vertical face (above the round over/cove) to be as long as needed. Just use a standard sized rule joint set and a suitable drop leaf hinge properly positioned and mortised. You'd just need to be aware that the drop portion would extend that amount from the outer edge of the stationary portion.

After a second look I see it may not be as easy as I first thought. The cove cut would be straight forward enough. But the round over might require a rabbit to remove some waste and maybe an collet extension to reach the piece.
