04 / 26 / 99 Scarfing: cutting parts on an angle of 1:8, to allow joining parts to make longer than the manufactured size.  This is 2 sheets of 1/2 plywood (for the bottom) stacked to allow cutting. See drawing.  I used a hand plane and belt sander until I got a power planner.
05 / 11 / 99 Gluing the scarf joint for 1/4" sides with epoxy.  I used a layer of waxed paper and screwed thru to scrap wood on both sides.
