Yeah, I agree - don't be stupid doesn't mean anything - unless you have already made plenty of stupid mistakes, then you know what it means. The first time my son used the table saw (he was 34) he let go of the offcut and it went flying when it shifted into the blade. His fingers stung for a few minutes but no other harm done. I didn't explain to him what I had learned long ago from a similar experience. In this case I was the stupid one, because I did not tell him what was second nature to me. Perhaps this rule should say don't start any power tool until you have thought through what you are going to do and considered what could go wrong. -
+1 for the Tage Frid books. That is where I learned fine woodworking. They are fun to read too. -
Using the dominoes are definitely for alignment first. The coopering of the seat makes the glueup very difficult without the dominoes, also the dominoes are critical to keep the correct orientation of the joints. Maloof believed they added some strength also, perhaps they do. -
Can anyone help me identify the following logs. Friend got them from downed trees after the Dallas tornado. Don't have leaves or end grain pictures yet. Any ideas? -

@Bmac are dominoes really necessary for strength in the seat assembly, or are they primarily an alignment aid?
