Stop having fun and get back to work!

Almost the witching hour. Time for me to pull the pin. I think they are all done.

Perfecting them as I go I may want to touch up a couple of the first ones with some fine sanding.

Fostner bit on top to suit tenon. Nice snug fit so just a small smear of glue shoukd be ample.

Hope the package is opened on carpet. Hate to aee those thigs land on a hard floor. I assumed theae were to be supolied unfinished. Hope i was right lol

I agree, well done Evanism.

Hundreds of kilometers apart and able to assist.

DaveTTC did help me before. He's been here on two occasions and we've had a lesson together

I only just happened to know this through massive trial and error. It is not by any means the best - simply a way I've devised.

No doubt, i've overthought it enormously

Looking at Daves work, it looks better than mine
