This is a drawing of the top left part of the frame without the corbels, in response to a question from Blueridgedog (who has some beautiful Arts and Crafts builds on his project page) about how the top of the frame was put together.

The drawing shows how the top portion of the frame is held together with biscuits and dowels. The dowels go through parts A-1& A-2, part D, and part B on both sides of the upper frame.
Part D was also glued to the bottom of part B.
These dowels are over 2-1/4" long.

These photos show me cutting the square openings for the screw plug covers that cover the screws that attach the bottom shelf Part i to the lower corbels parts J with 1-1/2" stainless steel screws. The lower corbels were glued now their reinforced with screws. This has to be done before attaching the bottom portion to the upper parts A-1 & A-2 and F.

There are two of these one on the right and left side of the lower shelf.
The dowels have already been glued in place.

Looking great James!

To me, one of the best things about A&C builds is you can make all the joints incredibly strong and beautiful without a lot of fuss.

This project will last!
