Next project?

[bandit571]

An early test fit...
 

   
Then another, after the other 3 mortises were squared away...

   
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...

   

We'll see how today goes.....stay tuned to this Bat Channel

Now sitting in the clamps, waiting on the glue to dry..
 

   
All sanded to 180 grit, for now.    Easier than doing this once it is assembled...
 

   
Top has it's own system of clamps....legs?
 

   
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.....

All cleaned up, and awaiting a finish..

   
End view....

   
A view of the top ...
 

   
Underside ( this only stands 8" tall, counting the top) 

   
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.

Oh-righty, then.....finish is on...
 

   
An end view...

   
Turned things to show the side view...

   
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.
