I promised myself that going forward we need to do a better job documenting the progress on projects, that is the purpose of this blog that I have created. Anyway.. Although it’s not the most exciting post in the world, I have documented the lumber selected for the main part of the case,the lumber we buy at LaPlaca Woodworks is all rough sawn lumber, at this point the lumber has been rough milled +1/8″ over in thickness, then stickered and stacked to let the lumber re-acclimate, before final milling..

It important to point out that none of the lumber required for the drawers or the back of the case is included in this stack of lumber, after we start assembling the case we will then rough mill the lumber for the drawers.. Then after after we start the assembly of the drawers we then mill the stock for the case backboards..
