Nice design, I really like the look, it will be interesting to see how you do dovetails on an angle like that...

Check how's your day thread
That's too much free time for a monkey. You could get into trouble. You might better go down to the local bio lab and ask them to do some experiments on you instead. Safer that way.

DT time. Coves and compound angles makes laying them out a bit challenging.
I need to use a square to set the DT angle
Here the outer edge of the cove, along with the tails are marked.
The bevel gauge I used for the angled cuts is used to set the cut lines.

Cuts and chops.
The tails are thin compared to the pins. Black walnut will be applied to the sides of the tails.

Holy smokes, way out of my comfort zone! I can't wait to see this joinery come together. Very cool Brinkster.
I too want to see them , it truly amazes me that those can be made . Way beyond me, just to think about trying to figure it all out gives me a headache.
It will be glorious for sure
