In this case I used card from cereal packets and only draw around them but if I use anything thinner I would use photographic spray adhesive after applying masking tape the tape is easier to remove and leaves no glue in the grain. You could use pva but with paper it can distort when applying.
The small pieces of tape you see on parts is only masking tape with the name of the part on it for easy recognition as I did cut out so many in one go

Today I cut the mortices in the front support on the front axle assembly and also drill the hounds at the far end as well as the slider bar this will aid in marking out the tenons on the hounds as they are all different. You will notice in the first picture that one of the hounds does not line up with the drawing this is where I found the measurements out. Also notice I have numbered the hounds, as well as the Splinter bar as all the angles, are either different or mirror images of each other This is all that I managed as did not feel too good and came in for a rest.

No I have a bandsaw which I have fitted a 1/4" blade this is one of my main workhorses of the workshop. For very small pieces I do have a scroll saw but this project was all cut on the bandsaw

Not done much the past few days but managed to get the tenons done on the end of the Hounds

Drilled a hole for the dropper pin and found a piece of brass bar which will become the pin

In this picture you can see a Hound shutter laying across where it will be fitted. I need to cut through mortice on each of the hounds which need to line up so it can pass all the way through

Trying to get some shed time between doing the garden, which seems to take 5 times as long as it use to.
Anyway started the through mortices for hound shutter this was the first of four that needed cutting.

Two done with the hound shutter in place

Next up after completing all the mortices was to cut out for the front axle.

The next job was the cut outs for the guide bolster and also for the slider bar. With those done I did a quick dry assembly of the parts. There are still more cut outs to do on this assembly.
These last three photos show the assembly the correct way up as I have been working on it upside down

Cut some half lap joints in the hounds and slider bar followd by the first glue up of this sub assembly. The second photo gives an idea of the size of the joints
DSCF9984 (800x600).jpgDSCF9986 (800x600).jpgDSCF9987 (800x600).jpg
All dry and what it looks like

Sorry for delays in any work on this waggon. I have had to stop work on it for a while as I am making a jig for my router to use on the lathe in preporation for the club competition next month. As well as also having to stop all work for a couple of days due to a 2:00am ride in an ambulance and the wife banned me from the workshop for a couple of days. My heart decided to have a race to see how fast it could beat.
Hopefully another week should see the jig complete nd work comencing on the wagon
