Let me see if I can fin the issue and look at how the carcass was constructed. I seem to remember some 22.5° angles. It was in Woodsmith No. 61. Check that corner make sure it is ''square'' Yeaw I'm late gittin heaw.

One nice thing about this design was that the back was flat and didn't go back into the corner. Not as much space in the closet but it pretty much avoided the non-square corner problem
November 5, 20178 yr That is really sweet Pat, and thanks for taking us through the build with you. Be sure to post up some completed pics, Cal

November 6, 20178 yr @Pat Meeuwissen... as well as you did your angles, fit and finish... why the issue w/ staves and the compound angles...

I guess it has to do with the combination of the bevel and taper, I found a link to a jig which makes sense to me. http://www.woodmagazine.com/woodworking-tips/techniques/sawing-solutions/beveles Just have to work out if it tapers an inch at the top and there are 8 staves, do I taper each just a 1/16 to add up to 1/8 per joint?
