All the rails being cut, now let’s fine tune them.

 

 

I fine tune each tenon with this small shopmade tool that I call Poor Man Shoulder Plane. To learn more about this tool, clic here.

 

 

The expected result is a joint that dry, supports itself.

 

 

The dry assembly and the verification of all joints of the first door is done.

Finally, I check for squareness by comparing the diagonals that must be identical. This is the last step before the glue up.
