Construction is complete. For the base, used dominoes for alignment augmen ted by lag bolts. Used Forstner bit for the dog holes. Much faster than i presumed. Need to sand to 150 and mount the vises. Will finish with 3 or
4 coats of Watco clear, unless y'all convince to go with BLO or something e lse.One surprise (and I am blushing as I write this): the reclaimed cherry I th ought I was working with turns out to be walnut. I've gotta get a handle on identifying wood species.
