Well, things started out nicely enough, wanted to try to get some more corners done..THAT WAS THE PLAN..
Until time to take the first photo…”Memory card is full, ”.....guess no pictures, today? Worked about 2 hours in the shop..corners #2 and #3 were dry fitted…grooves and a rebate ploughed…floor board panel trimmed down to fit..
Toes were trying to cramp up…still ticked off about the camera…stopped for the day ( I thought..) and went upstairs to deal with that camera.
made a copy of the card’s file, moved that to a safe place….then hit SHRED! for what was on that card…Cold Tonic & Gin to cool me down…loaded up the camera, again …with the now empty card…and went to take a few photos, to see IF that worked…
Tasks done?
Still needing fine tuning, but corners 2 and 3 were dry fitted…then..
Set up to run 3/16” wide grooves. Cam Rest to keep the plane from tipping over…Stanley 45s also does not like it when boards are shorter than it is..
Tends to wiggle along…also needed a rebate milled, where the floor board meets the front of the box….rotate the cam rest up, out of the wayand slide the fence over to the cutter..depth stop stays the same..
Once a few parts could be dry fitted together, I could trim a panel down to size…and attempt a fit…a few times..
Which involved the Mitre Box to cut to length, test fit…...meh..WR #62 to peel enough end grain from both ends, until the length looked good…..Width was about an inch too wide….mark a cut line, bandsaw, leaving the line…#62 to peel enough that the panel was a slip fit….
Which left this corner for the next (hopefully better) day…
Stay tuned….
