Topic The new frame

I've set the saw up to cut the apron



Well it worked and just needs to be planed up



A very deep cut is needed on the maple



The finished angle planed and roughly sanded



The mitres are cut and it looks good



Heavily bolted so it won't come apart



Ready to be fitted to the frame

Now it looks like a skittles frame

Topic The new frame

Biscuited together as well as the threaded rods for extra strength



That's both the base layers done



Finally got all the maple machine drilled

Topic The new frame

The wood's home stacked ready to be worked on



The maple came up beautifully



The iroko planed up well as did the 8x4 maple



It's starting to come together



Drilling the holes must be done accurately



I must be careful with this beast
