All the edges are jointed and fitting well. Andrea makes one more check of the grain
patterns.

I get
the silver insert out and have her check my measurements. This is the last time we can
make changes to the case plans. The inside dimension must be very exact.

It is time to figure out which is which. The two boards to the left will be the front and
right side. The two that she is working on will be the back and left side. They will
appear to be wrapped around.

She
adjusts the boards a bit to make the grain match better. Notice that the ends of the
boards are offset by about 2 inches. This is how much the board to board grain is
"off." The reason for that is that we had to thickness plane some of the wood
away and that makes a perfect match off a little.
Next week, we will glue up these panels and cut them to length with mitered
ends.
A question for you: this is 1/2" stock and the mitered ends will look
good but what can we do to give it strength? Email me any ideas you have, please. Email
