Design change, then a PIP
Had to get this thing done…didn't have any trouble cutting pins…
![Wood Logging Hardwood Brick Grass]()
Same as before…spaces for 4 tails..
![Saw Wood Tool Handheld power drill Power tool]()
Was even trying out a new chisel…
![Wood Brick Tints and shades Hardwood Wood stain]()
Even ran a plane across the side… to flatten a bit of cup going on..
![Hand tool Plane Saw Wood Metalworking hand tool]()
Problem arose with cutting the tails….
![Wood Nail Door Hardwood Metal]()
Grain direction…tails were snapping off, during the dry fits…finally decided to just buzz the dovetails off,,,and get out the nails and glue..
![Automotive tire Motor vehicle Wood Bumper Gas]()
Cut a 5mm plywood panel to rough size, and glue that on….let this mess sit a while…while I made a few dividers…
Dividers get a notch….center divider then is notched to match, so it will slide down over the cross dividers…, once the rest of the glue was dry..
![Wood Musical instrument Folk instrument Plucked string instruments Electric blue]()
Cut a 3/4" dowel for length, drilled a pilot hole, and then countersunk for a screw…and installed the new handle…old one was looking way too clunky…bead of glue under the center divider, and clamp it in place..
![Wood Gas Auto part Electric blue Metal]()
let this sit a day…take the clamps off, sand everything smooth…add a coat of stain…and we have a PIP..

End view..
![Wood Rectangle Hardwood Wood stain Natural material]()
Side view, with the brass nails…front and back sides were too thin for nails…
![Wood Rectangle Flooring Hardwood Gas]()
Only had two nails needed pulled and restarted….we have just the nailpuller for that..
![Hand tool Wrench Crosscut saw Wood Metalworking hand tool]()
And a screwdriver to drive 2 screws, for the handle…
Dropped this off at my Daughter's place, today…...it is now a caddy for a few larger jars of spices/ seasonings..
Meet & Greet friday, sent what was left of the Ash scraps home with the visitor…among a few other goodies… need to clear the decks…have a porch project coming up tomorrow…going to be a carpenter for a few days..
Will post as a Project? We'll see…thanks for watching the fun.
