The 14Vi in, wide by 18 in, long shelf (part J) can now be made from in. thick stock. To get enough width it will be necessary to edge glue two or more narrower boards. Cut the boards to allow extra on both width and length, then glue and clamp with bar or pipe damps. When dry, trim to the final dimensions before scribing the 5W in. radius at each corner. Once scribed, cut out with a band or saber saw.

The four V/» in. long feet (parts Q) are turned on the lathe from 1 Vi in. square stock. Note that the foot tapers from 1% in. diameter at the top to Ye in. diameter at the bottom. Once turned, sand smooth, then drill a Vi in. diameter by V* in. deep hole at the center as shown. Drill a matching hole in the bottom of each leg (parts A), then join parts A to Q with Vi in. diameter by 1-7/16 in. long dowel pins. Use glue and clamp along the length with a bar or pipe clamp.

Now, the upper back (part K), the two upper ends (parts L), and the upper front (part M) can be cut. All four parts are made from ³A in. thick stock measuring 5⁵/s in. wide. Cut each part to approximately 1 in. longer than the length shown in the bill of materials, then

miter each end to 45 degrees while cutting the parts to final length. Once cut to length, a ³/s in. deep by 'A in. wide groove is cut on the inside of ;ach piece to accept the bottom (part N). Note that the groove is cut at a Doint ³/s in. from the bottom edge of :he stock.

Both parts K and L have 5/16 in. deep by ³A in. wide notches cut in the top edge. Cut them out using a dado-head cutter.

The grid pattern for part L can now be transferred from the drawing to the stock. Use a band or saber saw to cut to shape.

Edge-glue V* in. stock for the top (part N), allowing extra for both length and width. Once dry, cut to length and width. The edging for the top is cut using a dado-head cutter and a molding-head cutter (see Fig. 7). Since both cutters will just touch the fence, an auxiliary wood fence must be used as shown.

With the bottom completed, parts K, L, M, and N can be assembled. Apply glue to the miters and to a 2 in. wide strip along the edge of the bottom (see exploded drawing). Use web clamps to clamp the miters together. Applying glue to just a small area of each edge will hold the bottom in place, yet still allow it to move with changes in humidity.

You'll need a table saw jig to cut the

PETAtL-.-rrip

splines (see Fig. 8). To make the jig, cut a piece of ³A in. particleboard to 10 in. by 12 in. Next cut two pieces of ³A in. stock to lVt in. wide by 14 in. long and miter one end. Now glue the mi-tered pieces to the particleboard as shown.

To use the jig, set the table saw fence to a height of Vs in., then position the jig against the rip fence. Locate the fence to make the first miter cut, then pass the stock through the blade.

Cut splines to fit the grooves, then glue in place. Once dry, hand plane the excess spline and sand flush.

After parts 0 and P are cut and half-lapped at each end, all parts can be given a final sanding, working to 220 grit. Assemble as shown. Parts G and H are joined to part F with a single wood screw into each joint. A pair of wood screws through each part D joins part J. The top unit (parts K, L, M, and N) are joined to part B with a dowel (part I) pin as shown.

After a final sanding, two coats of Watco Danish Oil complete the project.
