Bob - cool beans. Glad you have a repeatable solution that you're comfortable with. I was wondering if that would provide a lip/shelf to help in alignment. That's pretty neat for your project
Nothing genius about it - I have spent 3+ decades overcoming mistakes. In fact, I don't do too much design on pieces anymore - I just tee it up, and mistake my way to a finished product.
I'm hoping to see a finished product - there's something going in those "H-stands" and its driving me nuts wondering what. Unless it's political adverts, in which case I'm full up.
When I started woodworking, I didn't know squat. I have progressed in 30 years - now I do know squat.
