I am working on my first slant top desk. Is there and special layout requirements for the hinges for the fall front?
Do you split the barrell at the edge of the writing board? Or is the full barrell past the edge of the writing board. If I want
to leave a little room for potential top shrinkage so as to not bind the breadboard ends against the desk do I just hold my gap with the fall front on the loppers and mark the hinge leaf as it lies?
Thanks for any suggestions, as I don't have any more wood to replace this fall front
