Jointing the back

20130802
I also jointed and glued the back.
After much pondering and selection by my friend this piece of CSARW was chosen because it looks the most stable.
It didn't react too much to the changing RH.
The other piece which was quite fragrant was warping badly.
After the glued had dried I scraped off the glue line and checked the joint (which was perfect).
