So the next step is to cut a 1/4 inch grove into the drawer sides to fit the drawer bottoms.
This could be done with a router but I am sure you would rather I did it with hand tools.
So I have a reproduction of a Sandusky 119 plow plane. I made this last fall. If you are interested there is another video on the plane here http://davidboefffurnituremaker.blogspot.com/2013/11/hollows-and-rounds.html
Using a 1/4 inch iron I set up the fence and depth stop for the 7/32 inch deep groove.
I have the board clamped in and ready to cut.
I make a few passes and this one is done. So now I have to do 11 more.
It did not take too long. All finished. Now I have to make the drawer bottoms.
Outstanding job on the drawers and the dovetails. Your plough plane worked like a champ and no router noise or dust!
ReplyDeleteThanks, you are right about the noise, but I had a pile of curlys at my feet
