I am posting this design for your critique/comments. I am planning to use the live edged bubinga that I received in December for my birthday for the top and doors. Ebony will be used to tie the top and walnut carcass together.
I have some questions on joinery. This is the most difficult part of the design, for me.
1. If I use a mitered 45 for the joint of the top and side, do I need additional dowels, biscuits or possibly an exposed ebony dovetail to strengthen the joint. Thoughts please.
2. The carcass will be made of walnut. Do I miter the joints? dowel them?
3. Connecting the carcass to the top with pieces of ebony. I think that I want to use screws to attach these. Thoughts....!!!
