Notes from a small shed workshop.
Oak boards, 18 mm, no screws visible from the front. The dados took longer than the rest of the shelf together. Next time I'll cut them on the table saw instead of with a router.
Switched from oil stones to diamond plates. Flattening is no longer a chore, and the chisels hold an edge about as long as before.
The top is finally flat within half a millimetre. Legs are drawbored, no glue. It doesn't move when planing, which was the whole point.
