Rocker Box -

Having given some consideration to the separate mirror box concept I've decided that we might look again at that when I build "MkII". For the moment I'm going for the tried and true design.

The box will be very short. The combined weight of two mirrors and the jarrah is quite a bit - so having short sides might help with balance. anyway - I like the idea of the mirrors being up higher - they're more accessible and easier to place and remove.

Two long rails are 755mm inside edge to edge, two short are 420mm. Height will be 130mm (nice and short). Aluminium rail will form frame under the sides which will hold the two separate mirror cell assemblies. Edges are rebated so that the finish is nice and neat. Jeez this jarrah wood is tough - it's like steel to cut. Stainless screws will hold it together - and the edges of the frame will be either tigged or bolted.
