I like the design. Interesting...I usually chamfer the end grain first and hen go to the long grain so that any tearout is removed. However, as I think about it, it seems that both methods will work! You did scare me a little when rebating the stopped groves for the back at the table saw. I'm a bit leery of small pieces like that with my hand so close to the blade - maybe hand tools or the router table with a hand screw/clamp to hold the piece as you move it past the cutter? --Mark <a href="http://thecraftsmanspath.com" rel="nofollow">The Craftsman's Path</a> Shannon,
