Stupidly I only put in three 5mm ply laminations instead of four... Though you're right Bob the components do skid about a bit. Plenty of over-hang. About 100mm each end.9fingers wrote:Not sure but is that the outer veneer is too short or has slipped in the cauls?

That's an interesting tip Bob9fingers wrote:A tip I picked up but only tried once was to sprinkle a little salt on the wet glue. Just enough to get the surfaces to grip.

Thanks Coley, I've left as Ply, as it's out of the eye line. Though you could tape some veneer on. A nicer and more involved method would be to laminate maple bandsaw rips.Coley wrote:That's looking really smart ! How did you finish off the bottom of the laminated ply rails ?

No problem .... It's faster in the Ply, saving lots of machine time and importantly the thickness is more likely to be consistent... There's the potential for slight drift when band sawing. You could also use thin MDF.Coley wrote:Oh i see. I was scratching my head wondering if you were gonna tape it afterwards. When you say maple bandsaw rips, I guess you mean instead of the ply ? Would ply be better anyway because it's more stable ? Sorry for the daft questions keep the pictures coming

I'll be removing the legs to torch, the face of the legs that meet the cabinet has been milled flat (22mm) you can just see it here.
