OK so a few weeks have gone by with other projects finally seeing completion but this one has been falling short on the love meter. In an effort to keep a promise I made to have this ready by spring I need to get back on track and focus! Stupid groundhog calling for an early spring

Anyway, when the request was made to add boards on the top rails that meant I needed to either trim the pieces down I had already made on make new. I opted to make new parts and save the others for a future build. The new pieces are 5/8" lower than before so that when the board is installed we will end up with the same height as the first setup. Here's what I got done today. Not a lot but it's a start.
