Not discouraged yet Luke! Today I moved on to the sockets. First I knocked up a simply jig to help align the boards so I could mark the sockets from the pins. I also found the sides bowed ever so slightly so had to cramp up the sides to make sure the pins were marked aligned to the line.

But unfortunately have found the pins don't fit the sockets straight off the saw. :sayitaintso:

I'm trying to work out what I did wrong. I think it looks like I cut on the wrong side of the line. :doh:
I'll rest and revisit things tomorrow.
