MAKING THE
SHADOW BOX
place with 3/4" no. 6 wood screws passing through the
back, into the rabbet and into the back edges of the
box's top and bottom. Then, sand and finish the shadow
box.
First, cut a 1/2" X 3/8" rabbet on the back inside edges of
the two sides, into which the piece's back will later be fit.
Cut through dovetails at each corner (see chapter twenty-
five). After dry-fitting but before gluing the dovetails, cut
the dadoes that will house the ends of the shelves on the
inside faces of the two sides. When the shelves have been
fit into the dadoes, glue and assemble the four sides of
the case.
While the glue in the dovetail joints is curing, cut the
dadoes in the two upper partitions and fit the partitions
into them. Then glue and slide the partitions into place.
Below the half-circle at the top of the back, relieve the
sides of the back so that they will fit into the rabbet cut
into the back inside edges of the sides. Fasten the back in
INTERPRETING
HARDWO OD GRADES
The grading system used to indicate the quality of individ-
ual hardwood boards can be a little intimidating. In an
effort to clarify that system, I spoke with the National
Hardwood Lumber Association.
First, the system is complicated. The training course
offered by the National Hardwood Lumber Association for
people interested in a career in lumber grading consists of
fourteen weeks of "intensive" training.
Second, although there are only nine commonly used
grades, there are any number of specialized or combination
grades used in the woodworking industry. However, the
good news is that there are only four grades with which
the average cabinetmaker need to be concerned. These are
FAS, Selects, #1 Common, and #2A common.
Third, the grades are distinguished by the precentage of
clear wood that could be taken from a board in cuttings
not smaller than those specified on the chart below. For
example, to be graded FAS, a board must be able to yield
83 1/3percent of its surface as clear wood when taken in
cuttings not smaller than 4"X 5' or 3" X 7'. (The odd
percentages reflect the convention of measuring lumber in
board feet, a unit consisting of the amount of material
contained in a cutting 12"X 12"X 1'.)
Fourth, all grades, with the exception of Selects, are
determined from the poor face of the board. This means
that if a woodworker buys a board graded FAS, its good
face is likely to offer a higher percentage of clear surface
than is indicated on the chart.
