Norman's thread titled frustration is where this post belongs by definition, but I didnt want to turn the thread away from its topic.
I believe this was attempt 14, maybe 15, maybe 16, I took my time, worked slowly, and finally had to pack it in, my wife was not happy I was out in the heat when Im not supposed to be. But vision was working this morning, (let up late this afternoon, cant win them all), and I had to get started on how do I use the router table to make the dovetails Im going to need.
There was a bright side to my day. I had quite a few people over today for bbq, and recieved many compliments on my few pieces I built, especially the radiator covers, even asked what I charge for them.(I declined, I have no urge to have a client, I like to fadoodle when I want to, and no time requirements suit me just fine)
Also, I did manage to release some pieces out of my yard.
My dovetail attempt, I feel like Im on the Titanic, and I feel my feet getting wet.
that is a space on the left side of dovetail, no matter how many time I redid the cut, it seems I get a gap.
