I began the build by shooting the various boards: tops and backs.
After making sure that no light passed thru' the joint seam, I proceed to joint the 2 halves of the boards.
I have only 2 sets of jig to clamp the 2 halves so I joint the tops first.

Back of #10

The top is removed from the jointing jig.
Next the back is glued with the same method as the top.
The glue remnants is also removed by scraping from the jointed area on the top.
After removing from the jig
Jointing the back #10, tying the rope.

After the glued dried and more than 48 hours, the 2 backs are released from their jointing jigs.
Looks great!
