This is my first post as I typically only read online forums.
I am have been challenged by a woodworking teacher to make piston fit drawers in my period reproductions. I have been using less than 1/16 clearance on each side of a large carcase drawer. My recent instructor who does not make period furniture said this was sloppy. He recommended a plain to fit for the drawer width as expansion will not change this diminsion. Does anyone do this?
