 I have a tape rack that started out 3 feet. Now 12 feet.  She will fill it up and need another 10 feet in a week.

All that rain the last few days...The Dungeon Creek has risen..Might wait a few, until the place dries out a bit?

Decided to drag this old machine out, and clean it up..:JawDrop:

SpiceRackBuildScrollsaw.jpg.ff5b56d1359a43a70823e5e600da3cfa.jpg

Then a bit of layout..:WonderScratch:

SpiceRackBuildscrollwork.thumb.jpg.54ce86556e7c21fafbc6f58f4ea70993.jpg

Then, buy the time I cut both ends, transfer those lines to a second board, cut those lines, plane both edges to match the other 2 edges...:Cheer:

SpiceRackBuildjointanedge.jpg.d3ff9e610018d597e420c2334ace15ed.jpg

Give everything a swipe with the #80..:TwoThumbsUp:

SpiceRackBuildFinetuned.jpg.fa9824cb57b0c30c992d8d5c443ce6c7.jpg

I now have both sides of the New Spice Rack ready for Dados...:SaluteandRun:

Went to the shop...merely to measure for the shelves...wound up doing some cuts..:ChinScratch:

SpiceRackBuildMitresaw.jpg.339d25c4f82fa8b418c66bcf1624a349.jpg

A wider shelf for the bottom, was notched...and a finial was shaped...:TwoThumbsUp:

SpiceRackBuildDryfitshelves.jpg.0823f47da99c6b3aa69e806c94f79404.jpg

A  dry fit was attempted... middle and upper shelf will sit in shallow dados...:OldManSmiley:

As for a back?:WonderScratch:

SpiceRackBuildPartsforaback.jpg.498d0708d4f958267efc6a99fda6cc99.jpg

These will need resawn, to match the other and last two 1/2"thick planks..:TwoThumbsUp:

SpiceRackBuildNeedsresawn.jpg.68435f0566e7599ce1259186e216b620.jpg

So I can glue this mess up into a panel for the back of the rack.  :SaluteandRun:

Stay tuned...:cowboy:

My brain keeps slipping off the tracks.:GoodNight:

dados for the shelves have been milled...dry fit ..:OldManSmiley:

SpiceRackBuildshelvestoowide.jpg.c5b8a0b154cb627daeab94ccbc2f9748.jpg

Shelves fit, but are a blade width too long, and a bit too wide...:ArguingSmileys:

Picking dried glue off of me fingers...:ChinScratch:

SpiceRackBuildpanelglueup.jpg.2b05ae79b7fdf3f84bd7bee2a3341084.jpg

Picking glue off'n me fingers, right now...:ChinScratch:

 

Out of the clamps, this needed a trim..

SpiceRackassemblybackneedstrimmed.jpg.e2b8ec8974b54ce4acda6fd8495a9453.jpg

After trimmed square, it needed to loose a bit of width..

SpiceRackassemblytoowide.jpg.fc93e45b79b7dff686b920fec053f0fb.jpg

About that much from each edge....then a rebate was milled..:WonderScratch:

But first, it needed to be flat, and smooth...we have ways..:ph34r:

SpiceRackassemblyplanework.jpg.a2b5c07ff7bc596e673ee194dd9d8e3b.jpg

As for smooth, well...:ChinScratch:

SpiceRackassemblyscraperwork.jpg.873d92b338ca9268e63153f7af1feac6.jpg

Makes things a bit easier...

SpiceRackassemblyrebatesmilled.jpg.03c8b6fb8e10a0799f8d5252d090103f.jpg

Tried a few dry fits, adjusted sizes as needed...until.:TwoThumbsUp:

.SpiceRackassemblyfulldryfit.jpg.de5bd154ec6b93e5b7ccc54db6a0531f.jpg

One of the dry fits to see how much the shelves needed to be in width,,:OldManSmiley:

 

Then..the cussing could begin :ArguingSmileys:

SpiceRackassemblyhelpinghands.jpg.8cb78e222a134a50f1d7cf985bb1befd.jpg

SpiceRackassemblyinsideview.jpg.e81dd43cfc970b62fdbbe1453cd2693f.jpg

Bench Vise as a Helping Hand...:OldManSmiley:

Waiting on Glue to cure....there are no metal fasteners used, all glue joints..
