The Rück!

It's all about the Rückpositiv this weekend and I'm making some good progress. I started by gluing the center section cabinet together. At the same time, I went ahead and started making the pipe support for the center pipes. They both came together nicely. The center pipes are now ready to be sealed, primed and painted.

Next, I pieced the flat pipes together. The design is slightly different with these pipes, which will make for some interesting pipe shades.

When the center unit was complete, I was then able to take that width and make the bottom spacer. The bottom spacer will be glued between the two 3/8in thick bottom pieces. The spacer is 1/8in thick. The center unit will then be glued to this spacer, which will lift the center piece at the right height as the base. I made the base 3/8in thick this time around as the molding is that same height, which will make for easy gluing.

I used a different camera when trying to take the overall photo tonight. However, I didn't realize, at the time, that the quality was set much lower than mine are normally taken. Add the poor lighting and you get the picture below. It still gives you a little idea on where this is all heading.

Until next time...
