Assembly

In hindsight, planning ahead is a really good idea. I forgot to choose the dowel thickness before using the CNC router, so I needed to buy a spade drill bit especially. So far it's not having the desired effect, but is doing the job. The barstool is starting to take shape which is promising. Although some of the pieces are becoming curved due to the holes being done by hand and being slightly out from where they should be, I must admit that I quite like the odd visual effect it's having on the overall design.

I think this effect actually lends itself toward my goal of moving my design away from rectilinearity, and therefore am quite happy to leave it as it is.
