The cutting of panels to finished sizes gets going properly and I am still having the problem of finding stock not the right size. (memo to self- I must give this more attention)

The things we have to do to make room to work. I'm still figuring out my layout. I have a separate shed for my stock so that helps. Nice video as always Ben. Take care 👍

@@jimrick52 Thanks, Jim. It just makes me realise that you can't have a shed that's too big.

@@benelliott8745mine was 8x6ft then extended it to 10x6ft then my wife said I should have built it bigger, so I tore it down and built a 12x6ft. Would be pushing my luck to go any bigger. Quitting while I'm ahead.👍

A quick suggestion for moving forward. Establish an edge to work from, then square off one end. All your measurements can then come from edges you can trust. And check overall squareness by measuring each panel across its diagonal. The distance isn't important, but the two diagonals should be identical ❤

Thanks for more views of your tidy shoppe. We've talked about it before. I am surely not as tidy organized. I am very impressed by the use of all wall and floor space. Kudos. Nice to see longbed hand plane use instead of belt sander. I noticed your use of it skewed off center line for slicing the grain instead of straight on cutting which seems to be a bit less efficient. I surely hope new woodworkers viewing appreciate seeing the whole layout process other channels don't feature.

@@MakerBoyOldBoy Thanks, Gary. I smile when you mention a tidy shop. It doesn't feel tidy although I know it's better than it was. On the plane, I'm getting used to it and I'm thankful to Tim for letting me have it. He also was kind enough to sharpen all my steel but, I've splashed out on a Tormec of my own. Just haven't had chance to use it yet.

@@benelliott8745 I reckon I'm too old school. I built a grinder for metal working. I hand sharpen plane irons. I never thought to use a grinder. Online Tormek looks to be a grand product. Pricey splash. Your mate Tim seems like a right proper friend to value.
