Glueing the tabletop and working on dovetails

The photos from today look a lot like from last time. The difference is that this time the boards are actually glued together and the tabletop is now in one piece! The glue up went smoothly thanks to the large press which ensures that the boards stay put and good pressure is applied evenly.

Other than glueing up the tabletop I also started working on the dovetails for the two pieces of wood that go across the tabletop below it. They are used both to keep the tabletop straight and to attach the legs to the tabletop. I forgot to take photos of those so I have nothing to show. Next time I will make the matching grooves on the tabletop.
