How to assemble case with 24 3/4 dowel rods?
Hi,
I have one idea of how to approach this potentially tricky assembly, but thought I'd ask around a bit: I'm making an open CD rack, not unlike some commercial models, except I'm using nice stock. The two sides will join to an upper and lower shelf and stretchers, but... the CDs will be kept on 3/4" dowels. So, when joining everything together, I'll need to include 24 separate 33" dowels running from one side to the other. A nightmare in the making? How might we keep all the dowels in place, hitting all the holes in the sides, all while gluing up the sides to the shelves and stretchers? I'd prefer not to run the dowels through holes in one side. My idea is to make a "holder" out of masonite, and then cut it away after assembly. Any other ideas? Am I overlooking something basic? Thanks! Rob |
