Went through what was left of the stash of Ash....nothing was very wide, and way too thick...got busy with the tablesaw to thin things down a bit..
Would have been nice that they were all as wide as that bottom slab....
Picked out the longest 4 that were about the same thickness and width....cleaned them up a bit. Tablesaw was used again..( don't worry, hand tools are coming, too)
Yes, it does read 80 degrees....for a 10 degree angle....
The thin plank underneath MIGHT just work for a bottom...and is 1/8" thick...the 4th piece for the sides?
Was over getting laid out for pins....
Had to re-adjust this gauge, from marking the pins on the end grain to then carry the lines down...saw time..
Jackson Backsaw (that I had just re-sharpened up).....then the chisel work..
Pins done, trace around these, to lay out the matching tails....then saw and chop
Dry fit...
Hmmm, going to be tricky, come glue-up time.....Lunch Break..then repeat the above for corner #2
2 corners done...back was saying it had had quite enough for one day...time for..
Will try again, tomorrow, eh?
Will also have a divider/handle to carry this Spoon Tray around with...
Stay tuned..
