Very informative, I've learned a lot in the series.
Cutting the end panels, he cuts the top at 2 1/4" from the top hole. But then says to cut the bottoms for a finished length of 15 1/2". Shouldn't that be 15 1/8"?
Having difficulty finding wide, well-figured boards, I opted for five boards (with similar color), each three inches wide. It made cutting for the negative spaces easy. I biscuit jointed as done in the video.
I have admired Kevin's work for several years. This is a fantastic and well documented build. I'd going to try to adapt this build for a hall table that I need to make.
I was surprised at the choice of tools that were used... Skill saw, and the way he used his router, when he had a beautiful Jointer and table saw. Cutting everything apart, then glueing it all back together again. And that Scraper, NOT your common card scraper. So many tools used from the building industry and not fine furniture.
