Days 2 and 3

Another great day in the shop.  To ensure accuracy and repeatability of same size parts i cut broke the full sheets down yesterday about 1" oversize.  Today I was able to setup the tablesaw and cut all cabinet case parts square and to their final size.  Labeling all parts is key to keeping track of what has been cut, what parts are cut to the same size and not losing or missing anything.  Here's pics from the corners of the shop at the end of day 2.






























Since I can't simply buy something that I could make, I'm making the turntables for the lazy susan rather than buy the cheezy plastic ones.  Cutting out a 32" perfect circle calls for a router and trammel.





Maureen also came out to the shop for a while today.  She was awesome help, and stoked to use a drill for the first time.  She pre-drilled holes in all the dados and rabbits to screw the cases together when assembled.



And of course some goofball time.

One happy side affect, Maureen no longer asks why I need so many clamps.
