Friday...had a 2hour time limit, for the shop, today...first off, a repair job....seems something had caused a couple splits to show up...Fixed the splits, and fixed the reason FOT the splits.....rebates were a hair to shallow...needed to deepen them without pulling the panels back out..we have ways...

Once that was fixed, add some glue and a few clamps..
[

Which promptly wiped out all of my long pipe clamps....set this aside, for now...along with the other side assembly that I can't glue up at the moment.....
Panels for the ends of the chest....need rebates..so..

Tablesaw to make the wall of the rebate..reset the jig to hold the smaller panels so I can work on the end grain ends first..
[

Wide chisel to pop the waste off..cleaned up with the router plane, still set to the depth needed for that fix earlier. Do all 4 end grain ends..then reset to do the long grain sides..
[

got almost all the waste off...then clean it up..
[

There is also another step to all of this...after each rebate was done, the panel was flipped over, and the bevel fine tuned to fit the groove
[

And remove any saw marks left behind....want the bevels to meet in a nice 45 degree line from the field down to the corner of the panel
Was able to get to a dry fit..

What you'll see inside of the chest, and..
[
attachment=42738]
the outside....was trying to get some clamps set up..
[
attachment=42739]
But it was hard for the clamp's pads to stay put....may have to cut a notch for the pads? Once the corner is glued up, what notch?
Swept the shop, let things sit a day, or two..
Stay tuned..
