This was a pain to get done, but Im there.
A couple suggestions, if you put about 10 layers of varnish on like me, take some of the board thickness off in the rear corners and front corners of the outside boards. I had to fight them for a long time, then pull them out, file down the ends of the boards, then pound them back in.
For varnishing, make sure you are in a shop where thousands of bugs and dirt flying around cant ruin your perfect finish. And cheap brushes are just that, cheap brushes.

pics are a little dusty..
