thanks for the comment and question-
The ba...Luis,<br />thanks for the comment and question-<br /> The back of the work surface is completely free to move. This is possible because the back splash/front wall of the tool tray is just sitting there. no joinery- It'll push backwards when the surface expands and when the surface contracts, I'll just nudge it forward a little. There is also a small rabbet at the work surface height, cut into the tool tray front apron- this helps hide any gaps along the edge!<br />The tool tray bottom sits on two cleats fixed to the tool tray walls and is made to have some 'wiggle room.'<br />So no problems when the surface moves. Oh yeah, the top of the rear legs, those stub tenons are also a bit firgiving. no glue there either... As the top expands they'll be able to let the oak slide over and if anything, may cause the lower frame to tighten up a little through the wet months. Thats o.k. too.<br />Hope that helps-<br /><br />all the best.<br />TomAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07416979406500241671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6688442226358931965.post-75298888950653172392009-12-21T18:25:46.121-06:002009-12-21T18:25:46.121-06:00Hi Tom,

As always, it's a pleasure to watch you go through a project in such detail.<br /><br />Looking at the drawings in the second image one question arises: wood movement! If I got it right, the top is trapped between the front apron and the back piece which is also the internal wall of the tool tray.<br /><br />Won't this explode if the top wants to expand? I don't see how the top can expand...<br /><br />Take care,<br />LuisLuishttp://dovetailkid.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6688442226358931965.post-20521516022071366842009-12-19T16:53:30.613-06:002009-12-19T16:53:30.613-06:00Tom,

Maybe you should include the plans in your (hopefully ?) planned second book. The first one is a cracker. Until then I could you please send me the pdf?<br /><br />an Aussie fan.Damienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03534583004234671053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6688442226358931965.post-73794995213481482432009-12-19T07:42:29.226-06:002009-12-19T07:42:29.226-06:00thanks bob!

A technique for other types of files is to obtain a free storage account, such as Googlepages. Then, upload your PDF there and establish a link to it from your blog.<br /><br />Details at:<br />http://www.blogdoctor.me/2007/02/upload-files-to-blogger.htmlBob Eastonhttp://bob-easton.com/blognoreply@blogger.com
