Hey Dave:
Love the focus and discipline of attack on your case/sofa table/hand tool learning thingy. The name keeps changing :)

You get everybody antsy....we see the parts, then the B-E, then the woods together now we're all thinking what's it gonna look like with a finish thingy on it.

I'm check'in back to see what the Big Guy has to say.

Got your comment Dave.....Thanks!

patching???

No way man! That's saw cut to saw cut! ..... what you see is probably the pencil lines on the tails... there is one pin with a little gap.... I'll try to take a pic of it, just to be honest...

My back is feeling better now that I'm back in the gym.... We're gonna have to rip it up at the gym later this year!..... oh yeah!!!!

take it easy

stressed!

ugh.

ah, whatever.... I'm just real picky. Glued up the dovetails.... probably used a little too much glue, cause they didn't seem as tight as when I dry fit it... a few have a little gap, maybe a 64 or less... its a learning thing...

It seems I tend to get a little stressed during glue-ups.... I only have a few parallel jaw clamps so I had to use some of my cheap aluminum bar clamps... one of those was hangin' up and got pitched across the room.... haha.....

It's all good.
