179/365: Finished dovetailing the last few drawers and got all the drawer bottom dadoes cut. Now to power through all the interior drawer sanding. I always sand and finish the interiors and drawer bottoms prior to assembly since trying to do a proper sanding and finishing job into all those corners is a nightmare. After sanding I will just quickly mask off the joints to keep the finish from contaminating the glue surface and lay all 96 pieces out on sawhorses on long boards and get them sealed up. Same for the bottoms.
