Progress so far. The front and back face frames for the desk drawer
units have been assembled and are receiving varnish for the hard to get
to areas. Side panel assemblies to the drawer units will be assembled
tomorrow after the 4th coat of varnish on the cherry panels.

The stiles for the front and back face frames with Domino mortises

The rails to the back face frames with Domino tenons, a pretty cool
joint. It naturally forms a rabbet with its lap joints strengthened
with the Donimos.

And the finished back face frame showing the rabbet that goes all the
way around the opening. Note the dado's on the bottom sides of both
stiles. These will receive the side panels.

As a side note, all of the kerf cuts in the plywood work surface are a
result of cutting the Wilsonart plastic laminate for the airplane
cabinet project. The Festool fine tooth blade for plywood cut the
laminate like a hot knife through butter with absolutely no chipping.
