A Trial Run. Leitz Summicron 50mm DR
As I work on the pair of Bedside Tables in the Cape Dutch style, I decided it would be prudent to make up a model of the joinery for the legs. It also gives me a chance to refine the techniques and the best sequence in which to do things. The little cove molding of Cape Yellow Wood is a labor-intensive operation with no room for error. But I think, at the end, it's a nice visual detail which will have been worth the effort. The slots visible in the image will house the Yellow Wood side panels. I have so little of this wood to work with, that I'm resawing 22mm thick planks, glueing up the panels, and will plane to a final thickness of about 6-8mm. It's the journey, not so much the destination...
