Ok, I just measured the sides and there is no short side. I assumed the cut away added extra length to the side. That’s pretty funny.

I’d have thought it would have as well, though if the upper side piece runs around past the neck pocket to the start of the cutaway, then that would roughly make up for the extra length in the cutaway. If the sides met right on the centreline at each end, then the bottom would definitely be longer than the top.
Measure twice... ;)
Yes, hopefully I was using the same end of string, haha.Quote:

What have I done this week? Built a shooting board and learnt to sharpen and set up my late grandfather’s planes.
…and it’s good to be back in the game.
Welcome back DarkMark. Yes, 3 months LSL seems a long time until it is happening!
Hi Trevor. Plane is my new favourite tool. Note the poor man’s Moxon vice.
If it works, why not! I do not have a work area big enough to have all the bit and pieces I really want, so have to make do quite a lot!Quote:
