Make sure when cutting duplicate parts that their dimensions and angles are precisely the same. This can be done by ripping and beveling a single board and then crosscutting identical parts to finished length. All the blocks must be oriented at a true 90· to the frame sides, and the clamping blocks ought to be positioned as close as possible to the center bearing blocks. The outer bear­ ing blocks should be flush with the ends of the frame sides. To add strength and to help position the parts during clamping, I cut narrow tenons on the bearing blocks and dadoes in the frame sides to house them.
