If anyone is still remotely interested in the progress of my entrance into
drawer construction… here is progress to date, as of dinner time today (20:00 -
yeah, a late dinner !)..

..drawer slides all cut and being screwed on  (nothing is glued yet,will make
sure the carcass fits under the bench first !)..

wow, my MF No38 is a ripper, first time I had used it in earnest, made light
work of all those holes in the jarrah, I love it   …and an ex Doc brace followed
up behind with an 8mm bit to widen the first few mm of each screw hole to bury
the screw head...

Hopefully will get some time on the weekend to glue it up and then start
thinking about the drawers  :-0
