Well, I had just gone through and resawn a few reclaimed 2x4s down....Boss comes up and says she wants a new pantry cupboard.   had to go out and buy a bit of pine.   1x4s, 1x8s, and a couple 1 x 10s, all 6' long.

Glued up two panels to make the sides
[attachment=2343]
And ripped a 1x4 to make the stiles for a face frame
Had to crosscut a second 1 x 4
[attachment=2344]
Used the "new" panel saw for that.   Needed two rails at 30" long.  Join the rails to the stiles with half laps
[attachment=2345]
Needed to rip a few more parts, to make two webframes to help join the sides together..
[attachment=2346]
Had a benchful of tools to work on the laps..
[attachment=2347]
Just the usual suspects....

Stay tuned for the next episode....hope you like it.

I'm waiting for a popcorn refill.

Can I have carrots and broccoli? 

There's wood. I have lots of that; and even for projects--some projects are forgotten. 

Waiting......

Mmmmmm .....

Hhhhhuuuummmmmm .. oh hum....

Sure. Eat all your carrots.



Drumming fingers on desk.

Tap tap.....

Oooh ok...............waiting till evening........

Ok, this might take two posts....here goes ( until the glue dries... )
Cleaned all the saw marks up, made a LOT of shavings...
[attachment=2365]
The four shorter [ieces of the webframes needed tenons made
[attachment=2366]
Needed to set up a jig to chop a few mortises..
[attachment=2367]
Just three pieces of scrap.  I can clamp each part in place...
[attachment=2368]
And do a mortise to match the tenon..
[attachment=2369]
Something like this.   I chop into the far end, after a saw has made a kerf to follow.   Pop the waste out. 

Part 2...

Part 2:  Dry fits..
[attachment=2370]
Tenons seem to fit nicely, got all four corners done..
[attachment=2371]
And check for square..
[attachment=2372]
Looks decent.   Went ahead and made both frames.   Bottom webframe was glued up first..
[attachment=2373]
Not enough space ....

For the rest of this morning's efforts....so, page three...
Top frame was a little different..
[attachment=2374]
Only one stiffener was used, as only the top is above it.  Doesn't need to support a lot of can goods. 

On both the sets of stiffeners,  pilot holes were drilled.   then a small drill was used
[attachment=2375]
With a countersink bit...

The single one was centered,  the other two were set in about 5" from the outside edge.   Drove one screw ( glue was applied first) and check for square, then drive the other screws. 

So, Lunch Break!   I have both webframes sitting all clamped up, once the glue has set, I can work on gluing  up the face frame.   Maybe tomorrow, I can attach the assemblies to the sides?

What's for Lunch?

Supper.......supper time......
