Running into a problem I'm having trouble solving. I'm building a Titanic Deck chair, and I've cut out "identical" chair slats from a pattern on a bandsaw, but of course they are far from identical. Subtle, and perhaps not subtle, differences in thickness mostly, and a little in curvature.
How do I get these pieces identical.
I thought of using a pattern bit and a router table, but I can't think of a good way of attaching the pieces together, or to a pattern I can use the bearing to ride against.
I have one side of the pieces sanded identical with my Rotex, but it's now getting the other sides identical that has me baffled.
Here's some pictures of the slats:

I've been trying to find ways in which I can have the bottoms of the pieces sit securely, and identically so I can just use some rasps and sander to sand the tops, but I can't think of how to get them to sit identically, even though their top profiles are identical.
Any good suggestions?
Thanks.
