Well yesterday did not disappoint. We were kept moving from the minute we hit the school till the last wood chip was swept up at the end of the day. We worked on the bottom structure for the most part. I started out by doing the glue up on my top. How cool was that! I had always heard that glue ups were so stressful, but not really. The tips we learned kept it moving along nicely. Then we proceeded to mark and cut different aspects of the stretchers on the bottom structure the rest of the day. I had a chance to get to know the instructor, Mike, at lunch. He and I hit it off and talked about everything from backpacking to how to be zen and work the wood. In the afternoon we did a bunch more cutting, mortising, and bench work. Here are the pics. Enjoy, and feel free to ask any questions you might have. Peace.
