Beauty is whatever gives joy

Maybe a little persnickety but the gaps when I let in rockers are driving me nuts. I didn't photo the gap that was there but suffice to say it was unacceptable. The problem was that that I must have mis-reamed the legs, leaving the routed slots for the rockers non co-planer. What to do....
I thought long and hard and decided to steam the rockers and let them into their slots and see what happened. I usually deal with gaps with wedges but the gaps were pretty significant and honestly I wondered if steaming would work..
As you can see the results were spot on. Really good contact between the rocker and the routed slots. All gaps eliminated and the rockers fit perfectly.
Anyway, I'm happy with the results.
