This lesson was mostly spent making the drawer runners, and then gluing two sides of the table together. TO begin with I marked out where the runners will be mortised on the top and bottom drawer rail.

After this I then mortised the hole out, and then planed and thicknessed the wood which I am going to use for the runners. I then cut them to length to fit around the square leg, and also the tenon to go into the mortise.

Finally the rest of the lesson was spent dry fitting, sanding and then gluing the two table sides together, ready for next week and the final assembly.
