In may case, "Hell, I *have* done that". :)
But not so much lately. I think I discovered finishing the parts pre-assembly here on the wrec, looking at someone's project photos. Cool secret, that. I think I may even have *sanded* after assembly on my very earliest projects, years ago.
Funny thing: Now I look at furniture I like and wonder "*Could* I build that?". An further, I sometimes see attractive looking furniture
*designs*, but made poorly and think, "I could build something like that, but better".Yes, the slippery slope has been reached. :)
I have in fact already attached eyescrews to some of the assemblies (the "ladders"), and hooks to the bottom of a ceiling-mounted wood storage rack.
The one time I made panel doors - and I don't (yet) do any spraying - I mounted hooks on the backs of the doors where the euro hinge holes would eventually be drilled. I'd apply finish to the backs first, avoiding the non-hinged edge. Then I flipped the doors over and the hooks kept the backs from touching the bench, except at that edge. I applied finish to the fronts, hung the doors up, and hit the non-hinged edges last.
Why, I even have a photo: :)

As I mentioned, no spraying for me, yet anyway.
It's a slow stride, but yes, I'm making progress. Thanks.
