Hello Everyone!
Well this is it...the final part to this project! The next part will be when I reveal the finished product! So please make sure to return for the reveal.
 |
| After a trying glue-up of the bracket parts, I cut some slots in the miters for splines. These splines will further strengthen the miters. I cut the slots using a shop made sled which helps me slide the brackets safely over the running saw blade. |
 |
| Gluing the splines in place. I used some of the left over oak and sized them to fit the slots exactly. |
 |
| Trimming the splines flush using my appropriately named flush-trim saw. I love this saw! |
 |
| The most exciting part is applying the first coat of finishing oil and seeing the wood just come alive (bracket on right)! Here I'm applying a few coats of a durable Tung oil finish. I will give the oil finish a few days to cure and then I will send it off to my client. Please check back in for the reveal! Thanks for looking! Roshaan |
