So another, semi-productive, day on the media cabinet. I didnt get as much time today as I hoped, but made some more progress. Today I wanted to continue working on the base and get the cross stretchers done. These are going to provide more support and rigidity for the base and also give me some more point in which to secure the bottom. So, first I laid out where the stretchers would go; about 1/3 of the choice in from each side.

Then I cut the stretchers to their final size, which is 3/4" longer than the internal length as I am going to use a height of 3/8" on each end. For this joint, I decided to use a sliding dovetail joint. I did this because it will help protect against the piece pulling apart better than just a standard dado. So, first order of business was to cut the through dovetail in the rails.
