    Because my current machine is not large enough, I'm cutting the longer parts for the new machine in half and will be mating them together. The joints have mortice and tenons that will hopefully add some strength to the joint.
    Did you give up on this project?

    I haven't given up on this project at all. I've put off working on it for quite some time.

    I was 24 years old when I joined this site. Now I'm the ripe old age of 30. I've got a family now and 2 little boys, 2yrs and almost 1yr, that I dedicate all my free time to. I'm hoping at least one of them will be able to join Dad in the workshop this spring so we can get this project of track again.
