: I started with finger joints and it worked okay but was a lot of
: work. If you try make sure you move them on edge as I had some
: joints not hold moving them flat. I also had difficulty getting
: the strips to line up. I won't bother on the second build.

Thanks Paul,
Did the joints fail because of glue starvation?
Cheers
