Clamps removed, and gently handplaning down the excess veneer, you are close when the hazy white glue becomes a part of the shavings.

As Bowie and Freddie would put it, under pressure. That's enough for a saturday. .

After a sweaty glue session followed by coffee in the sun, it's bottoms up on the carcass, and adding small pins to the slats. When adding pins I always run them over with a flat file, especially 2mm dovels which quite easily break before you have them knocked in good. A flat file mainly compress the fibers, allowing them to expand again once glue is applied. A flush cut saw followed by sandpaper makes quick work of this. I personally appreciate such joinery that not only serves a decorative purpose, but mainly look the way it does to respect the natural abilities of the wood, which always win by the end of the day, month, year, decade, lifetime..

Who can relate?
Getting my glue-face on. Having one of those where in doing 2-3 dry fits to get my routine right, since loads of components are to fit before the glue sets. Normally I would run with hide glue for such, but this piece requires water resistent glue all the way, which leaves me with a lot less time to align everything. The bottom of the case will consists of 12 slats, allowing movement and excess moisture to find a way out. I'll fix these to the carcass with a single dovel, allowing them to dance as they see fit.

Handtools, they are vital to me and my work, and though some are used more often than other, I wouldn't part with any of them, and many of them even comes with a personal story. Though some look the same they are all their own in some way, changing in what material I use them for, size, thickness, profiles and types of alloy.

Surface treatment. To many this part is the very last process of a given project, but I often find that I do this in between earlier stages in the build, simply because it's more convinient. Here I'm applying the first coat to the inside of each piece before gluing it, the grooves are for sliders which are not to have any finish applied, since drawers/trays will run on these.

Components for the carcass, all ready for a light sanding and surface treatment on one side, before assembling all of the parts into a whole, and hiding these pretty little mitered dovetails for good. .

Step by step.
Now you see me, now you don’t. A dry fit showing some hidden joinery. Working with limited material equals some small pins and tails. .

The sound of handmade joinery, a freshly sharpened blade running across the grain. Here you see the kanna I use for finishing the mitered dovetails, alot of chiseling goes before this part of the process. A common tool in Japan for this, simple (by appearance), clever, genius, as much else related Japan. I’ve alternated a block plane sized kanna, both the Dai and blade, so that the side of the dovetails are used as reference, giving a good sense of control when working your way down. By the end of the day all of this will be invisible to the eye, but as generations pass, this type of work will last. This given commission also requires alot from the construction, which will be exposes to very different temperature and humidity throughout the day. .
