Re: Shaker bench, cherry

The Hancock Shaker Bench (cf. John G. Shea's book, Making Authentic Shaker Furniture) is quite similar to your design but uses four smaller braces rather than a single trestle brace. This would have eliminated the fussy alignment issue. Your sliding dovetails are a nice improvement to the original design. Very nice piece!
