The ACWA Workbench

Did you know that woodworking could be this much fun? Not much got done over the weekend but I did manage to pose for this picture.

All of the short stretches have been fit now they are awaiting layout for the draw bore holes. The front and back long stretchers have also been cut to length and the layout for their tenons is done. She's starting to look like something now, maybe a table? or a child's day bed.

To cut the tenons I clamped them upright on the crosscut sled and cut all the shoulders. Then moved the stop block and cut the cheeks off.

Here it is Monday morning and I am all alone fitting the long stretchers into their legs. Almost everything has gone very well up to this point hopefully my luck continues. Once the last 2 tenons are fit then we will be ready for the leg vise hardware and glue up of the base. That hopefully will come on the next blog entry!
