Granted they look it in the photo but I assure you they are dead flat and all stretchers are 90° on ends and equal in length. The stretchers Are actually cut as parallelograms to match the 10°tapper on the front of the legs anyway it's all glued up I am happy enough with the results. I will post...
That was the first time I used it tbh everything else was set up using jigs and stopblocks and I used a tape to get the original dimensions to size I don't use a tape to measure everything I cut just for initial setup and make everything else repeatable on the tablesaw
Thanks. yes I remember althoughit feelslike a lif time ago, I am not sure how I feel about going to the effort of making it true and square to then undo that effort. 😄
The width and length are spot on the diagonal is perfect on one side and 1mm out on the other side but this could be my measuring as using tape measure is making it difficult what sort of tollarance are we talking to cause this problem?
This is as tight as I have been getting the joints but still going wrong at the glue up, I will take more pictures once clamped up and see if it's my clamping method that's the problem.
I do dry fit before glue up, I am using sash clamps for the top of the legs where they meet the apron across the frame to join the two sides and smaller bar clamps next to them to secure the rest of the half lap on each individual leg if that makes sense, so in total 4 sash clamps and four bar...
