Made some progress, finally. Company in town, Christmas dinner, and it was dern cold outdoors, this weekend. Today, I took the day off as an after holiday rest day and decided to get all the main carcasses assembled. These stages inspire me to do the next. Still trying not to hurry and it's trying my patience. Once the motor gets revved up, it's hard not to shift to high gear and go machine mode on stuff. Fortunately, I only have enough large clamps to do one large cab at a time. So now I am indoors sipping on a Guinness while waiting for the glue to dry so I can assemble the last.
The rabbeted panels were all oversized 1/8" which allowed for a 1/16" overhang for the flush trim bit to make quick and neat work of. Also helps to square the joints when assembling. I am always surprised to see the corner-to-corner measurements so close each time. If this were butt construction, I would have to spend some time squaring things.
Had guests over Christmas and listened to Rickie Lee Jones "Pirates" CD on the Paul Carmody "Classix2" speakers in my bedroom after everyone settled down or left. Instantly hooked by those darn things. I let it play on as I fell asleep. Love those damn speakers. Have been sorely tempted to build the 2.5 version of that speaker if it's just more of what they do so well.
