Frame #8 is done

Today I finished cutting and sanding Frame #8. I don't have a bandsaw so had to jig saw it out. May need to invest in a new jig saw, my current black and decker one is about 30 years old, and got rather hot, even with a brand new blade.

Jig sawings ok, but it was difficult to get a flowing curve. Took a fair bit of sanding to tidy it up afterwards.

I don't yet have ply for the floor timbers or gussets, so it's not complete, but from a solid timber perspective, frame #8 is done.

Doing this frame has also re-enforced my need for a jointed.
