Let's check we didn't mess anything :)
Dry fit test for a row of dowels
Assembly time, let's start by glueing the dowels
Just a smidge of glue spread around the bottom of the dowel, then twist/hammer it into place until it bottoms out.
One long side done
The second long side done
BLO on the short sides, drying off
A long side with BLO freshly applied
Apply glue to the half laps, check for square and clamp... wash, rinse, repeat until the 4 corners are done. Check once more for square to be on the safe side
Let it dry fully before applying the next coats of finish... I'll add another coat of BLO and follow it up with shellac.
