RE: Next project? - bandit571 - 08-24-2018
An early test fit...
[attachment=12487]
Then another, after the other 3 mortises were squared away...
[attachment=12488]
Showed the stretcher to be just a hair too long, somehow
Adjust that and cut the kerfs. The three at a time kerfs...

Spokeshaves? Had 3, hoped that at least one was sharpened...

Back was acting up...called it quitting time...
[attachment=12491]
We'll see how today goes.....stay tuned to this Bat Channel

Now sitting in the clamps, waiting on the glue to dry..
[attachment=12510]
All sanded to 180 grit, for now. Easier than doing this once it is assembled...
[attachment=12511]
Top has it's own system of clamps....legs?
[attachment=12512]
Had "issues"......legs came from a borg glued up panel....had a glue joint fail....fix those, glue and clamps. Stretcher also had a split..too fat of a wedge. Fixed. Stretcher needed pulled tight to the legs....fixed that with the orange clamp.
Letting this mess sit awhile, until the cure has dried....then some clean up...
Stay tuned.....
RE: Next project? - bandit571 - 08-26-2018
All cleaned up, and awaiting a finish..

End view....
[attachment=12545]
A view of the top ...
[attachment=12546]
Underside ( this only stands 8" tall, counting the top)
[attachment=12547]
And seen from the side. just under 12" long...about 8-3/4" wide.....small plant stand? Or a foot rest for the Boss?
need to figure out the finish, next. Woodworking is about done.
RE: Next project? - bandit571 - 08-29-2018
Oh-righty, then.....finish is on...
[attachment=12604]
An end view...
[attachment=12605]
Turned things to show the side view...
[attachment=12606]
And the all-important top view. Almost a Pumpkin Pine colour?
I think I can call this project completed...
Thanks for following along

Very nice, not a whole lot of meat left in those legs though. My fat ars might flatten those first time I sat/stepped on it. Love the through M&T for the top. I may have to steal that and make one for myself.
