Finishing the second frame mortises

Over the last few days I’ve been cutting the mortises in the final leg and it’s been going really well.

On the very last mortise, when I broke through to the other side, it lined up perfectly!

This was definitely the most accurate mortise of the lot, I’m really proud of it. To get a perfect alignment across 90mm of material is not at all easy.

And with a little bit of cleanup, that’s all the mortises completed.
