Notes -
Well, more problems on my chairs.
Some fucking how I cut the stretchers an inch short. Which required me to buy more walnut. Good news, the lumber yard was having a memorial day cook out, and I got to stuff myself with free cheeseburgers before I made my purchase.
So anyways, I got the stretchers remade to the proper length this time. Cut the angled tenons in them which was new for me. Added another mortising guide to my leg making jig to put the mortises for them into the back legs. Things are back on track. I have 6 more mortises to clean up by hand, and after that all the mortises and tenons are done.
Next up are the seats which I think I'll do with a template again. Then comes sanding, finishing and assembly.
