DJ TV Display - Part 2

After a good start with Philip Tyme on Saturday I am back on this job cos for the last two days got dragged away doing other stuff.

Doing some planning before we start. This Torx wood screw is just the right length and I have a dog food tin full of them. 

















Clamped up and marked the drill locations, then drilled all the pilot holes followed by shank clearance - then countersink.



















This is the left side and the front has a smaller radius that the back. Template for the front is cat food tin (Chicken) and for the back the lid from a Danish Butter Cookies tin.

Unscrewed the panels and marked out each corner using the specified templates. Then cut each one with a jigsaw.

Screwed the panels together again and here we are smoothing out with wood rasp then 1/3 sheet sander.












Later in the build Philip Tyme can do a final sand of everything.




















Doing this soft of stuff demands a wood vice. I only have a small but good quality one, Larger pro ones cost arm & leg.



















Sanding the sides, here you can see the screw layout. Later on during glue-up we'll put in some more down the middle.



Back soon...
