Day Seven-sixty-two

After a short hiatus we got back to work on the laundry hamper. We needed to get the 28 stiles ready for installation. First that meant making the last two and another to replace one that was too warped to use. That left us with a 7x4 stack.

Next up was to mark the centers as we had before.

And then it was time spent carefully routering out the center where the dowel rods will go.

This might not look like much but it took several hours to get right. Next up will be some parallel processing--inside we'll do the last step on the stiles by applying sealer and outside we need to dig out the channel to hold the bottom. After that will come cutting the bottom piece, cleaning the legs, routering matching holes in the legs and cross beams, making a ton more dowel pegs, attaching everything, sealing the other parts, and then figuring out the lid.
