Signing UpStep 1: Joinery
I decided to use mortised joints for their strength and to hide the joints for a cleaner appearance. This is a 3D illustration of the joinery.
If I were to do this project again, I would select a different joinery method because I had to chop 16 mortises in total and it was very time consuming. See the next step for the joinery method that I would recommend over this one.
