I readily admit that furniture design is not my forte. I am attempting to build a small table that's really my first attempt at anything remotely complicated.
My question is, am I basically trying to do too much with some of the joinery? The images show a side panel with six small mortises cut out to house the tenons marked out in a drawer rail (the table is supposed to have a small storage drawer). You can probably tell that the mortises aren't laid out as evenly as I thought they were, hopefully that won't hurt too much.
Is there a more sensible approach I could take here, or this workable? I am enjoying the practise, I suppose! But it should have some useful purpose as well.
Appreciate your thoughts/advice/criticism.
