Tail Vise Build - PART 4

After finding the twist in the Dog Core, I flattened one side, and now I need to flatten the other side and bring it down to final thickness. I marked the thickness with a depth gauge, and then chamfered the edges down with a hand plane. I finished the rough thicknessing on the jointer, off camera. I'll fine tune it with the hand plane once the side rails and the end block are done.
In the second half of this video, I'm getting started on the end block or nut block. This will dovetail into the side rails, and resist the pressure from vise when its tightened down. I'm gluing up walnut finish samples from my office trash bin to make the blank.
